What kind of frame rates do you get with this scenery? It looks VERY frame intensive! Beautiful scenery.

With both scenery/autogen set at extreme was about 8 fps on my AMD 965/ATI 5850 computer. :chuncky: Defiantly requires a super computer. Going try this in P3D V.2 when released, to see if the off load to the GPU has any improvements. Not to bad when lower the setting a bit.

Oh, forgot to mention these are HD textures, choice of either standard or HD.

You know I've been running NYX with the HD textures with a GTX 780 and Core i7 Extreme. Don't look as sharp as your screens TF. Maybe I don't have my settings quite correct. But getting FPS around 20.

That's what I need an i7 and GTX 780. 20 fps with the complexity of this scenery is pretty good. I'm using RadeonPro with SMAA set at ultra. I should lower it to increase my fps.
 
That's really nice, but how terrible that MS abandoned this title vice engineering true multi-core support to leverage that and be able to actually achieve good framerates with such spectacular scenery!

Ditto here. Haswell i7 4770k o'clocked to 4.4 Hz with water cooling. GTX 780. Runs smooth 30 fps most places but doesn't look nearly as good as any of Ted's screens on this thread and all his others! Sharper and also better depth of color. I had "shade" on my old machine but didn't do much with it. Just seemed to make things a bit darker and slow down fps.

On the new machine, in the rush to get up and running, I just borrowed someone else's posted "recommended" settings for Nvidia Inspector, but no idea if these are optimal or not. Don't have a lot of time to A-B test all the different set-ups one can find googling.

Using SMAA for clarity and SweetFX for the color enhancements. Use to use Shade, but like you was on the dark side.

John (bomber_12th) has some of the best screenshots and I believe he uses Geforce cards, so might check with him for settings.
 
Don't want to divert thread from the great screenshots, but am interested in SMAA mentioned above.
Would you be willing to start another thread on SMAA and indicate where to get current version, how to install, how to configure for FSX?
(have done some Googling, their lingo hurts my pointy little head)
 
I'm using SMAA setting thru RadeonPro for my ASUS EAH5850 DIRECTCU card. SweetFX is used for the color enhancements similar to Shade. Don't know if there is SMAA for Nvidia cards or Nvidia inspector has such settings.
