There is a large building sitting in the middle of New York’s East River. Do you plan to remove it? Only way to get rid of it is to set scenery complexity to Extreme.

In reply to neucoas. +1 A variable setting of some sort would be best, methinks. This would really compliment the new flight path that X-Plane 11 now has - huge improvement over XP10. Nice job on that!

In reply to Ben Supnik. I thought so too, but other GL-bases games run as fast as can be expected from a 1080Ti (on Linux). As I wrote, the card itself reports only a load of 27-30%, while x-plane keeps 200% cpu usage. FPS is a bit higher with the default mesh and textures though, and all that at highest gfx quality, and lowest shadow settings.

In reply to Manuel. If you're getting 15 pfs, something is screwed up on your system - I have an i5 460 and I can get 35-40 fps with reasonably high settings.

In reply to Andrew Hellyer.

I have a 1080Ti, and it’s bored at 30% load, while only delivering 15fps (UHD mesh, photoscenery).
I suspect that the card isn’t fed (triangle-)data fast enough, and maybe Vulkan improve this. If you’re only getting the 1080ti for Xplane, I suggest you don’t bother for now.

Hi! Are there any plans to make bigger the waypoint fonts in the NAV display of the airliners ?

In reply to Ben Supnik. I can barely use XP11 in my machine and OS, just take mini flights in an alternate supported OS. I haven’t even flown a plane with the XP11’s FMS. I should’ve kept it to myself until my much delayed computer arrives, if it ever does. If you think I should still file a bug despite that then I will.

Grrrrrrrrrr….bugs are useful. Random comments that something is borked on the dev blog with no steps to reproduce or ANY detail whatsoever is….not.

Just a heads up as I’m not filing a bug. I suspect XPLMGetDisplayedFMSEntry() is borked if you create a plan using the existing SDK, dunno about the related Set function as I’m bypassing both. I haven’t encountered a problem with the other functions.
