Gents,
Have been tweaking and adding on P3D for the last 8 weeks. I thought I had the "sweet spot" figured out with most all sliders maxed, sans traffic which is about 80% and it looked absolutely superb! Admittedly when I take off from KTCM, I generally head southwest and don't go over KSEA. I decided to take a hop to Friday Harbor and once I hit KSEA, my FPS really bogged down, not to a slide show bog down, but major hit and noticeable. I am running REX SF3D with maximum settings and that may also be why too, as it was overcast and ground mist was well represented.
So, do many of you just generally avoid cities and enjoy the great add on scenery or do you compromise to get the best FPS for flying over all terrain? Not sure that last statement makes sense, but I hope you get the gist of the idea. I mistakenly assumed I could max out everything with my current set up and indeed, it looks vastly superior to anything I ran in the past, however, humility is kicking in.
Thanks
