List your system specs and describe how it ran

Postby omar777 » Thu Aug 10, 2006 12:10 am

I think we should have one thread about our system specs and how the demo runs on it. It should be interesting. But since this demo isnt even the same build of what is currently being tweaked at ACES. Hopefully it gets better for those who had poor performance. and not worse for those with good performance this time  ::)

Anyways, just list what you have and what you got and score it from 1 to 10 (1 being from nothing better than FS9 and 10 being revolutionary)
have fun guys!

WHEN YOU RUN THE DEMO... DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO SETTINGS OR EXIT THE FULL SCREEN... STAY IN THE FLIGHT. IF YOU EXIT THE SCREEN OR MAKE SETTINGS CHANGES THERE WILL BE ERRORS....


the sim is not 100% and it was designed to be that way for a NAG

You must exitr the sim and start over to make settings changes..

I beg to differ. I have made all sort of changes to the demo "while" flying around the island and I have not experienced any problems other than the 30-minute time limit.

I had verry few problems, the water and textures dissapeared occasionally with flower bombing. But its a demo of a beta, for that its very nice  ;D

3200+AMD Athlon XP Processor
1 gig Ram
nividia 5200 256 mb vid card

I set cars to full, and some other traffic, water was bleh for me, but i saw birds, and smooth moveing traffic. I got 12 - 15 FPS aircraft looked nice. I wasnt as impressed with the in game itself but it has been said its a demo, so i will expect more with the full version. Now what i WAS impressed with is the options you get with the game. All the views, and scenery settings. If you look through the control options its AMAZING. All the options for aircraft are stunning. There was APU, Pressurization, No Smoking and Seatbelt controls. Its going to allow a lot of options for future developers. I cant wait.

Too bad there was a time limit and the scenery wasnt fully there yet (though what i saw, i liked  ;D )

has anyone managed to get the ground crew and service to work yet? i tried taxiing to the gate with ATC but that didnt work. engine shut off didnt work either. possibly it needs a "real" gate for it to work hehe. or just it wasnt incorporated into this build. but i like how the CRJ handles. so there is improvment in flight dynamics. it landed as smooth as a babys bottom smooth. which i watched in the replay. hehe.

Radeon X850 XT PE.

Maxed out, minus ground shadows, mesh resolution, texture resolution and AI.

Runs awsome.

What really gets me, is that there is no stutters compared to fs2004. If I turn down the settings so it looks like fs2004, it will run ALLOT better IMO.

Can't wait for the even more optimized full version and see how that runs.

Well, there's just an island and no AI (or is there some ?) It's not surprising, there's just very few stuff to load, so no stutters :)

Yep. But try and get them graphics in fs9 by installing tons of mods, and you'll be lucky to get 5fps.

I really should not have gotten involved with all this but I like to have fun as well from time to time. I

Isn't revealing you're a tester breaking the Microsoft-beta tester agreement?
