So I got everything finally downloaded and installed yesterday evening.

This morning I set all my button assignments up for the KA-50 , and finally got to try this thing out. At first it prompted me for my Nevada serial, got that copied and pasted over, then clicked ok. Ended up with a spinning circle and then finally the program has stopped responding. Restarted the sim, and all was well from then on.

 

Wow, it is simply gorgeous!

First I did a takeoff over the desert, performance was very good, I was getting around 100 fps and very smooth. Then I did the free flight over Las Vegas, certainly was not getting the 100 fps but I was maintaining around 40-50 fps, with some drops down to about 38 fps. Still, everything was very smooth and absolutely stutter free. I would note I have everything about on the highest setting across the board as well.

 

I did notice it is using about 3.7gb of my 4gb of vram, certainly more than 1.5 was using in the Georgian theatre.

 

The graphics are just absolutely beautiful, very impressive - great work ED!

Now a short break for a little nourishment, than get back to it for some more serious flying and testing.

Glad you got her up and running mate, it certainly was worth the slog yesterday. Just amazing.

 

Next try the Huey with the new trees. ;)

 

Makes for an Intresting experience.

I eventually will, but I just purchased the Huey on the last sale, so I have to get it set up and learn to fly it first lol.

 

Thanks,

I agree, fantastic little world here! on a positive note, I get the same 60 FPS over vegas with the A10 with MAV and TGP on as well but I have my settings set to "high" definitely not maxed as I pulled a few things back but my FPS over Vegas stays the same as anywhere else on the map which im happy with.

Have been playing around with the graphics, turning flat terrain shadows on gave about a 20 fps increase in performance over Las Vegas... now in the upper 70's and better.

 

I would also note going from Ultra to Extreme on the visibility range was about a 10 fps hit, so I went back to Ultra.

The new helmet audio function is pretty neat, flying around in the KA-50 I kind of like it.

 

Been flying the free flight Nevada instant action mission , and am just so very impressed. With everything practically maxed out and flat terrain shadows on, my performance is very good and I have not experienced a single stutter. Mid to upper 70's flying low over downtown, over 100 fps when get to outskirts.

 

My vram usage went down from 3.7gb to 3.4gb after turning flat shadows on.

 

Still seems to be a memory leak regarding system ram, my ram usage continues to gradually climb much like it did in 1.5.

 

Going to have a lot of fun testing 2.0 going forward!
