P3D 2.3 is Released!!

[Chris Sykes]

I run my Prepar3d on a WD Velocieraptor 250gb Sata 6gb HDD. My 770 is an Asus OC http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/GTX770DC2OC4GD5/

That is a LOVELY card there!!

I'm also very frustrated about the pricing of SSD's now. For what I paid for mine, I can get a double sized disk now...

So my bank will hate me, but I'm getting both!

Get a bigger SSD.
Normal hardrive are a thing from the past. They are good when you need to store huge files (movies, archives, pictures etc...) and that's all.

Also, I'm surprised to read about the FPS impact of the overcast weather.
The impact is quite limited on my computer. :/
I'm using the HDE clouds in 512.

lol, Bill, I'm old. . .but I haven't lost it yet, lol. I'm aware of how to view images. The original size of this image is 1033x777. . .that's not the size it displays at, so "no" it doesn't display full size. It displays at the size the forum limits it to.

Fair enough. In that case, right click on the thumbnail and open in a new Tab or new Window. Then use Ctrl+Mousewheel to increase/decrease size of the image in the browser...

Daube,

What are the specs of your computer??

i7 960 @3,6GHz with a GTX480, running on Windows 7 64.
EDIT: ah yes, my transparency antialiasing is totally disabled in the P3D profile in NVidia Inspector. I don't know if that counts in P3D, but in FSX in DX9 mode, it made a drastic improvement.

That reminds me. . .I haven't utilized NVidia Inspector in some time, seems like one of the "pro's" on the LM forum said it was basically outdated now with all the changes that LM has made in the programming and coding. Does anyone still use this?
Also with respect to REX clouds, I'm using the full range of textures from REX2 and despite some really nice looking clouds I see very little fps hit (ie: less than 3fps tops).

Here are my specs as posted earlier:
3.80 gigahertz AMD FX-4300 Quad-Core
Windows7 Home Premium-64bit 8Gig Ram
NVidia GTX650Ti Video Card 2 gig Ram
2-22" Flat Screen Monitors

I am using NI just to get Sparcegrid Supersampling working. It eliminates in my case all shimmering in cockpits, improves readability and is in my opinion worth few frames.

Still getting things set up on my new rig, but right now, 2.3 rocks!!!

Just loaded REX 3 & 4. Should I also load Shade? Have not yet run P3D since I just finished loading REX.

Tried my MegaScenery Earth and it looks fantastic. Haven't loaded any aircraft, yet.

Haven't changed any settings from auto default, and my frames are pegged on 20. Hope to get some screens soon, once I get snapshot set up.

How to get rid of the text?

[Daube]

It's just like FSX, Zolt => press SHIFT+Z a few times
