X-Plane 10.51 has now been officially released; you’ll be prompted to auto-update. 10.51 fixes a few bugs in 10.50 and updates the global airports.
There is one bug we are still tracking: a number of professional customers have reported worse external-visual tracking with 10.51 than with 10.45. If you see this on your setup, please file a bug; we are working with these pro customers individually to test possible fixes.
(We can’t easily reproduce this bug because the performance characteristics of multi-machine setups are very particular to the specific machines, rendering settings, and networking hardware involved.)
Ben, I am experiencing the slave machine visual tracking issue (dual imac here). I have already filed a bug when i first started testing 10.50 by beta 2.
Do i need to re-issue the bug report?
My slave imac experiences 2 issues (not seen in 10.45):
-Slave machine visuals tend to jump/skip frames very noticeable when left to right movements (i.e. while taxing during sharp turns)
-Slave machine tends to go out of sync, sometimes it requires to reload the aircraft on the slave machine to get it back on track.
Best to refile.
I have noticed external (chase plane view) frame rates are slower and a bit “jerky” with 10.51r2 and often in the upper teens in dense scenery.
I have a top level machine i7-4790K @ 4.8GHz and GTX1080 with nVidia 375.63 drivers.
Extreme textures, textures NOT compressed, very high distance, SkyMaxx Pro 3.3.2 and RWC.
thanks Ben
is this the same as the 10.51r2 or is there something new?
same – r2 went final. If you have latest you wo’nt get pinged.
