You can't turn off multi-threading. :) I only have 2 cores right now, but from what i've heard, different AI instances and autogen are the major things that are threaded. Maybe i just spent too little time tuning, will try again when the new PC arrives, i guess. :) Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!

Moa Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Just tried the demo and got ridiculously bad performance for the visuals i'm seeing, i wonder what is murdering my pc like that. As per the stock planes, i'm still disappointed. :( Hi Sobek. If you have two monitors it can be helpful to display the GPU-Z sensors while you are running and see if you are running out of Video Memory. Once the video card starts swapping with main RAM you can get noticeable stutters. I also found last night that if I leave anti-aliasing and an-isotropic filtering (after a FC2 session) on my ATI card as well as having the same effects enabled in A-10C I got horrible performance. Not only stuttering but continual swapping from the hard disk as it loaded textures. I guess it must have run out of video memory for the filtering and was thrashing away. Once I turned the driver-level effects off and let A-10C manage it everything was sweet again (=> not an A-10C problem). I wonder whether you should check for the same things with X-Plane 10 on your rig? GPU-Z is very handy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buznee Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Very annoying bug that makes the demo unplayable. Going into the joystick settings to set and calibrate axes causes the game to crash. Seems to be a common problem. Very unfortunate since I am eager to check out the new features. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoxman Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Sigh...the planes still handle like shit, tried flying the C172 since thats the only plane I have real experience flying...the plane pitches and rolls like crazy and needs heavy rudder use to stay centered on the runway which is crap.

bart86pl Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 What I like the most in new xplane so far is the weather system and clouds. Very immersive. But there are still lots of bugs, I hope they will fix all this. Waiting for the updates :joystick: coz imo this sim has a very big potential.

Conure Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Yeah I expect it'll improve loads - look at RoF and DCS when they were in pre release state versus now! Hopefully lots of people will buy it so they get some extra income to improve the sim! It's about time we had a good modern day civilian sim - pretty much our only option right now is FSX and as much as I love the PMDG/REX/UTX/GEX/MTX combo, the lack of quad core support and the fact that the game is optimised for use on a single core 8ghz cpu means we really need something new!

Steel Jaw Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I'm hoping it's only a matter of time before PMDG start making ad ons for XPLANE seeing as FSX is no longer being supported by microsoft, XPLANE 10 seems to be the "future" of civil flight sims.

bart86pl Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I just did cold start in def 747, and I think this one is nicely detailed and quite realistic. SR-71 also feels and looks v nice. Hope all Xp planes will be like this. It looks like the demo is more like beta.

Well technically speaking A10 was based on the same engine as Flaming Cliffs I believe! Still, I agree about that amount of money for an unfinished product but I would presume it will improve over time! If only we had a civilian flight sim of the quality of DCS. Can you imagine if PMDG worked on a sim for one aircraft only, like a 747, whilst just focusing on NA or Europe for terrain....they could create something amazing for hardcore sim fans!

cichlidfan Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 The most disturbing thing about XP10 so far is the content, or writing style, of the Key Commands file.

Scudslaker Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 yes it seems more like a buggy beta version then a demo.. the scalability of rendered objects and trees is not enough in my eyes.. i want a slieder..on the other side is the input options menu premium featured..i really like the way of assigning funtions for axis and buttons..great..ED guys should have a look!) most fun was a situation on KSEA runway, a female deer, followed by a male deer. crossed the rwy just in front of me..great!) XP10 has a huge potential..but they have to fix, resolve and rebuild many things in my eyes..but for 80$, i m in..for a more realistic flight experience then FSX!) and i agree with mower,..pmdg should look more to XP the FSX or FLIGHT cheers SCUD TM HOTAS WH :joystick:, Saitek Pro Pedals, Track IR 4, 2xJoyWarrier, 1x KeyWarrior, i52500k @4600MHz, ASUS P8Z68-V Pro, NV 670GT, SSD+ WD BC+ WD Raptor, 32HD:pilotfly:[sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
