I don’t know what is up with it here. I tried to fly near Paris first (started at Le Bourget Airport so quite far away from the city) and it would not even load. Then I flew the R66 there (to check) and it was sort of fine, but I was having some small stutters (bearing in mind I have pretty much tweaked out the stutters over the last 2 weeks of trying stuff so it was unusual to see this here too). BUT I did just install some France scenery that appeared on my list of approved 2024 product “upgrades” in Orbx now - so could be partly one of these to blame I guess:
Then I flew the R66 in Malaga (also photogrammetry, and pretty dense) but silky smooth, then the Huey here and it was OK but not as smooth (some of those freezes but not as often or big as near Paris), but at least it did load.
Then I reduced my VR resolution and tried again in Paris - it loaded into VR this time but performance was very bad (giant hitches and freezes). Guess I will remove the Orbx mods and try again but still it seems rather heavy sadly.
