    @ronaldozgaming2365 7 лет назад

    Thanks for this guide! I just took all your settings :-) Just to clarify: 1) Will Soft Clouds got dynamic textures, because ASCA will do this? 2) You told, you are using lower clouds from Envtex? But where are you actually installing this? 3) Because ASCA is only for dynamic texture, you only choose Sky, and don't have to do anything with the Cloud Themes? Thanks a lot for the video again, it's awesome!

    Yet another great and thought provoking video! You mentioned the importance of the order in which you launch the apps. Is the order you covered each add-on settings the order in which you launch each app? Thanks for all your hard work!

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад +1

      Thanks for watching! Yes follow that order so that you do not overwrite the cloud textures in the final step.

  • @jf4872
    @jf4872 4 года назад

    With the video card you have VRAM is not an issue with worldwide HD airports(in terms of used). Even a 4GB card would not have an issue.

  • @thestuartmckechnie
    @thestuartmckechnie 7 лет назад

    Great video and walkthrough! I have used your settings and addons and for the first time in v3 I am happy with the visual quality and can actually use SGSS in cloud without it becoming a slide show. On a 1440p monitor so have a little more tweaking to do to get it super smooth but thanks for this.
    PS are you using REX Texture Direct for anything other than High-Level clouds? Can you share those settings and when you install them?

  • @adaptiveaxolotl383
    @adaptiveaxolotl383 7 лет назад

    nice video! will try a couple of your suggestions. Does setting the "image quality" in ASCA even affect anything since you unchecked everything under "enabled content" except for sky colors? At 16:10 in the vid.

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Thanks buddy, the clouds will still be that of ASCA, but the soft clouds will come from REX Soft Clouds. So yes the image quality will take effect int his case.

  • @MyMach4

    question thou
    i dont have asca would i just enter envtex install only ticked?
    and i am also using your same settings dynamic cont sky theme
    and sun set to soft 4 and installed thou upon reloading the program the sun resets to set 1
    is that normal?
    thanks

    • @MyMach4

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      I do have VAS issues with the latest nvidia drivers. One thing that could help is move the water quality to medium. That will save like 200MB.

    @SWR188 7 лет назад

    Just a question about VAS : VAS is linked with your graphic card ?

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Not quite, VAS is virtual address space. FSX and P3D are 32bit applications and hence a maximum of 4GB of VAS is allocated to the application. It simply can't use more being 32bit.

  • @tonysoprano95
    @tonysoprano95 7 лет назад

    Thanks allot for this mate, my new settings just for P3D alone look 10 times better. Was thinking about Rex World Wide Airports HD but have seen mixed reviews about it. Do you really think it looks good in your opinion? Thanks again.

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад +1

      Most welcome, It is better than the default for sure, and looks a lot better in smaller airports.

    @JohnnyWing 7 лет назад

    Great video! :) One question though. Do you use the same P3D settings for NGX or 777, as you do for the GA aircrafts?

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Thanks buddy, yes, I use the same settings. However, for the PMDG series, I am very careful where I fly from and to. I always make sure either the departure or destination airports are default, otherwise OOMs =)

    • @JohnnyWing
      @JohnnyWing 7 лет назад

      One more thing I don't understand. You said you are using ASCA upper clouds and REX Soft Clouds for everything else. Then you show your asca settings and you don't have clouds checked at all.

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад +1

      I use Rex Soft Clouds for Cumulus clouds only. It is probably my bad, perhaps I unchecked something while testing. I do have cloud textures check along with sky colors. For Cirrus clouds, I use that of Rex Texture Direct.

    • @JohnnyWing
      @JohnnyWing 7 лет назад

      Oh, so you ment Rex TD cirrus, not asca clouds.

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Johnny Wing Yes correct =)

  • @rivvur
    @rivvur 7 лет назад

    Would you know why Most Addon Airports dont have moving Jetways? is it because i have some kind of setting off?

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Most payware airports will have an option to have some moving jetways, all moving, or non moving. This is mainly to help performance. When you have AI traffic enabled, too many moving jetways can decrease performance. You should be able to find this settings in the airport control panel depending on which payware airport you have.

    • @rivvur
      @rivvur 7 лет назад

      Say I wanted it for Adelaide International X or St Maarten, i dont think i see a setting in the FlyTampa Config

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      You are correct, the older airports probably don't have that option, but newer ones do. Some airports do not have moving jetways at all =)

    • @rivvur
      @rivvur 7 лет назад

      Q8Pilot that's annoying, I have aerosoft Innsbruck, and that doesn't have jetways at all, do you know if there is an add on for stairs that you can board from instead, (without gsx)

    • @Q8Pilot

    The only way to get a stutterfree and smooth P3D is to lock inside to 25 FPS and with this you can go up with the other settings..

  • @spooterify
    @spooterify 7 лет назад +1

    Thanks for the effort however these settings will not get you in the air at EGLL with ORBX Global, Vector, LC-Europe and ORBX England along with Ezdok, FSP, GSX and PMDG. I can guarantee that no matter what system you have you will be hitting 3800-3900 VAS banging down runway 26 for takeoff and just after you will get OOM, there is absolutely no doubt. Level of detail radius at maximum is NOT a recommended setting for any user, this basically sets the LOD to 7.50 which will kill your VAS instantly. These settings are great if you flying a small light default aircraft from a small airport with default textures.

    • @Q8Pilot
      @Q8Pilot  7 лет назад

      Those settings are fine for A2A aircraft with ORBX scenery, but must make sure to fly into areas that are not very dense. Done many successful flights in the past with same settings.

    • @spooterify
      @spooterify 7 лет назад +1

      Your settings are great for low density areas and airports, there is no way your settings could be applied to my configuration. After extensive VAS utilisation research and some two years of analyzing an array of data with multiple variations of addons I can safely determine your LOD setting alone is utilising a PMDG aircraft x 1,5. ORBX Global isn't the VAS killer, Vector is the champion here. Without Vector and LOD set at 4,5 and no road traffic you can fly pretty much anywhere, anytime for days on end. No matter what machine you have P3D PP v 3.4 (1200) plus Vector (550) plus PMDG (700) plus LOD 7.5 (1300) with default everything else equals 3700 VAS, obviously LOD VAS will vary depending on location.
