Ian St Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Could someone who has added the new Sydney Cityscape to existing Australia V2 & Fly Tampa Sydney please advise what your VRAM usage looks like? I don't use study level aircraft but only have a 6Gb GPU so need to be moderate in what I install. cheers Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Doug, is that after adding Sydney Cityscape? Any idea what it was before? I manage Australia v2 & Fly Tampa Sydney okay with my settings.

Bullfox Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Here is a screenshot of YSSY, Sidney, top down. I have Australia A2, Fly Tampa Sidney, and Sidney Cityscape installed. With the Carenado EMB 120 sitting at gate 125 I get 7.7 Vram and System ram at 15.2. With the sliders one step left of full right, air traffic at 40%, and road traffic at 16% I get 20 fps. There's a lot going on down there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Burgess Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Hi Ian, Difficult to know exactly what to suggest but here's my experience. There is a CP option to use 2k textures for the city - using that and setting the texture resolution to medium in the sim (1024) I'm getting about 5GB out of 7.1 with the cityscape, AUv2 and Fly Tampa under circumstances where I'm getting about 4GB usage without the Cityscape (fair weather with the Bell Jetranger helicopter). Setting texture resolution to High (2048) in the sim I'm getting about 5.5GB with the cityscape (but at times creeping towards 6). I have an 8GB card and am using P3D v5.3. All the best, John 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregmorin Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I got 4.7 out of 7.1GB on my 1080 card using Cityscape Sidney, Fly Tampa's YSSY and AUv2. I was using Milviz Bell 407. My settings are the same as John Burgess. Medium 1024 in sim and city set to 2048. Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wain71 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 for me, having all regions and the TE stuff I find Aus v2 consumes the most vram, still works fine but requires more from my card..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
