There is probably an existing topic that this could go into, but I’m so blown away that I just need to type. I was doing the Queenstown rally race in the XCub and wanted to see how people were managing to be so much faster than me. So I took to YouTube for tips. What I saw shocked me …
I’m on Xbox series X and all of the videos I watched were taken on PC. The thing that struck me immediately was the lack of trees on the course for PC and the extreme abundance of trees on the course for Xbox, to the point that one of the later gates that is quite low, you have to nose dive down after the trees to make it through. Below are a couple of screenshots clearly showing it in roughly the same positions. The ones with trees is me and the ones with no trees is PC
The Xbox is struggling enough for performance in the sim but to have thousands more trees per square yard is really not helping
This is quite fascinating… and strange, considering Xbox really struggle rendering trees. But if i remember correctly on PC there’s a slider to set the amount of trees you want, so maybe to get max performance in a race challenge PC users have set the slide to zero. Something you can’t do on console.
Maybe check out the replay of today’s Developers Livestream, as I think I heard that Xbox will be getting switches (not sliders) in SU2 beta. Not sure this is exactly what you may be looking for, but they recognize that something was removed from Xbox that was very much needed.
Agreed. I think that simply stating that the hardware is fixed and so therefore the settings are as well is a bad idea. Because not only are the settings turned up to those reserved for high end PCs, but we’re also not all using the same aircraft with the same opinions of what matters most to us
I did and it is because they removed the traffic tab from the menu and moved everything from here into the graphics menu that the Xbox doesn’t have. So it’s just going to be restoring the ability to remove ground aircraft, ground vehicles, ground personnel, road vehicles, ships and fauna. Which, don’t get me wrong, we really need. But I don’t think it goes far enough
Seems like they are here to stay unless this thread can gain some traction and/or I figure out how to change it into something that people can vote for
