Brisbane to Auckland

[Intrance]

Hi guys, I haven't been around for a looooong time. I hope all is well here with everyone. I've been busy flying a lot and I have been near my simming PC for about two weeks in the past 5 months . Lots of work to do when I came back a week ago. Updated to Windows 10, installed P3D V2.5 and all my addons again, and everything is running smooth. Here's a PMDG 777-300 flight from Brisbane to Auckland.

Addons:

A bunch of Orbx stuff (AU, YBBN, NZNI)
Godzone Auckland Supercity
PMDG 777-300
FSGRW
REX Soft Clouds and other textures
Reshade + MasterEffect


All set up from Cold & Dark


In sequence behind these little guys


Initial climbout done, autopilot on and enjoy the view for a bit


We've turned all around the airport, anyone want to try a STEEP approach?

Jasper , Great Screens Tho I don't have the PMDG 777 , ya really got to love Precision Manuals aircraft !

[cowpatz]

Very nice screens. How was the VAS usage?

[Intrance]

Right on the edge. I heard the *ping* from Windows telling me P3D was running out of memory several times, especially at Brisbane. However, it just kept running. FSX would have not even let me depart YBBN with the settings I was running I think .

[cowpatz]

Are you running the OPTIMIZE_PARTS=1 and AlwaysFullLoad=1 mods to the P3D.cfg file?
The optimize parts one is supposed to really help with the PMDG aircraft.

Optimize parts goes in the {SIM} section and AlwaysFullLoad in the {Main} section.
Make a back up copy of your cfg first.

SUPERB work.

I love the closeup, nice shot

Thanks guys, glad you like them .

I did use the OptimizeParts tweak, not the FullLoad one. Anyway, that was my last flight for the next few weeks again, back off to work. Unfortunately my Surface Pro 3 which I use while away from home for work, does not run P3D so well .
