Re: Oooh, no more Pumper's Cockpit Mod?!!!!

From what I've read on the forums, they've changed Pumper's cockpit too much and the new cockpit is subpar as compared to Pumper's full mod.

Re: Video Card suggestions....

I also run the 970. I couldn't be more pleased with it. X-Plane looks amazing.

Re: Xplane Scenery idea

I've been slowly creating scenery for the Gateway whenever I fly somewhere that doesn't have scenery (usually in conjunction with FSE). Most are in Socal.

Yep, the only way to get better at talking to controllers... is by talking to controllers.

Re: NVidia 970 running slow when VRAM approaches limit

Been running the 970 for a couple weeks now with X-Plane pushed pretty hard. I've experienced none of the reported issues though I don't know how often my usage goes above 3.5. I rarely dip below 30 fps even when weaving in and out of the OSM skyscrapers in downtown LA in the Carenado King Air ...

Re: New Airports Coming in XP 10.35

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I hope you guys are uploading good, accurate versions of the airports you're mentioning. So far, I'm unimpressed with the stuff I've downloaded from the Gateway. For example, I downloaded my home airport, KBZN, and it is in no way even close to the real ...

Re: New Airports Coming in XP 10.35

Indeed, and they're all contributed by users as part of the Scenery Gateway Project . My versions of KEMT, KBVU, KTSP, U30, and CL13 should be in the next version. I've been thinking about organizing a call to arms like Jan Vogel did for German scenery to get every airport in the PilotEdge coverage ...

Re: I7 4790K MSI gtx 970 performance

I got mine up and running yesterday. Vast improvement. I've tweaked it to get about 30 FPS in the "busy" areas of LA and San Diego. Very pleased with it.

Re: I7 4790K MSI gtx 970 performance

I'm actually getting ready to build a system with the same specs (4790K, EVGA GTX 970, 16GB Ram). Whatever the performance, it will undoubtedly be better than my 3 yr old iMac with a 512mb video card. :)

The performance in x-plane is amazing!!! You should defiantly get a pc with an i7 4790k and a ...
