O, yes after all tweaks+ software ad on> changing FSX files complete GEX + Ultimate Terrain. I am very surprised with Prepar3D Academic performance just on is own . Steady frame rate 30+>>> key word steady <<u >>>scenery is stunning no ad on at all . One issue ATC but it is getting fix. Transfers of my plains of all different models prop ,military, civil aircraft, freeware was a easy. They work great. My FSX is still in my computer and I can go to it as I please no conflict, but is hard to go back to that jerky frame rate

I have installed P3D with a couple cfg tweaks,
The performance improvement is well worth the change. No more CTD, Freezeing, failures to re-launch, etc.
I get steady 30 fps on almost max settings with no studders.

I manualy installed the following payware with no problems.
ORBX Global (P3D option avail in installer)
Dodo Sim Bell 206
PMDG 737 NGX (you must edit or create a "dll.xml" file for the hud to work)
Flying Club R44
Flight1 Skyhawk 172R
Digital Aviation Piper Cheyenne x

I'm very pleased with P3D over FSX and cant wait for ver 2

My cfg tweaks;
[BufferPools]
BufferPools=0

[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=14

[Graphics]
HIGHMEMFIX=1

[Main]
FIBER_FRAME_TIME_FRACTION=0.28

[SCENERY]
SmallPartRejectRadius=2

Uh, you just entered the world of fantasy with that statement and pretty much dashed your credibility at the same time. P3D is clearly licensed for educational use, not for entertainment, not for recreation. Just because you like it doesn't change that fact.
