It helps smooth things out but it is more cpu centered
I use the 4 gb patch and it does make a difference . CPU speed also has a big role in CFS3 but today's standards are much higher than all those years ago. I'm running a midrange pc and have no problems yet ,with a gtx750Ti ,i7-6500 3.40ghz cpu and 8 gigs ram. Pretty plain but functions flawless with all the expansions. Regards,Scott
Have all my installs in program files/(x86)/Microsoft Games folder,but anywhere outside program files is ok-(make sure where to have CFS3 installed with PTO-RS-very important). The PDF installation guide will tell you everything you need to know. Regards,Scott
Wanted to let you guys know PTO Rising Sun is up and running! I pasted it over to my little used D:\ drive, followed the included How-To and updated the specified files to follow the new game path. Took a couple of planes out for a test flight, in a couple of different "Theaters".....all went well. I've got it in MultiCFS3away from my original CFS install, and my Clean install of the game. I'm very pleased with the expansion pack!
Just for the sake of info, here's my HP laptops specifics:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz
16.0 GB RAM
nVidia GTX 1050 Ti
Windows 10 Home, 64 bit, Version 20H2
I'm wondering what does this RS Static Aircraft Mole Fix do? Do I need it?
Hi CapnScurvy, some aircraft models "mole" into the ground a bit when used as facilities. The mole fix pops them up onto their wheels again. Its a problem across a number of installs.
It is possible to tweak the aircraft.cfg file to "lift" the aircraft up if it is not included in the fix pack.
Hello CapnScurvy, Great news ! Glad you did it! If you can install PTO-RS the rest of the expansions aren't that hard-(ETO is a bit complicated) ,but you should do well.The mole fix is a important file to add so do install it. Have the same problem in my Just Flight BoB install. Some planes sink into the ground. I've never been able to fix it though.Regards,Scott
Don't pass up AnKors Shaders package. It adds so much to CFS3 .You will be amazed and not regret it ! Here's some links : http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum....php?catid=161 and for PTO-RS i found this problem and was solved : http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...ng-Sun-problem Hope this helps. Regards,Scott
Yes, YES, all this helps!! Thanks so much guys!! Look how far I've come with the help. This thread started with not being able to patch the basic game, now I'm opening up the game with the great expansion packs found here.
I'm already looking into skinning a B-24 to match my uncles plane that's MIA off of Borneo. That's one reason why the Pacific Theater of Operations is of interest to me....... that, and the fact my Dad served in the South Pacific as a "Ground Pounder" for nearly three years during WWII.
Wow ! Very interesting. I honor All those who Served. I've always been interested in WWII because i'm named after my Uncle who died on Omaha beach, D-Day. He was 17 yrs old. Lied about his age to get in. What a Great Generation ! Regards,Scott
Thanks Dai, The problem was in my Just Flight BoB install. Can't use it any more because of the CD's install wizard won't work in win10. Maybe will get a old pc just for stuff like that i still have. Anyway, it was mainly the JF Stuka and Hurricane that there was problems with. Regards,Scott
