FTX Global test

Hi there!
eventually ftx global arrived on saturday and i went to download and install it right away. both went fine after some while. no probs with the installation. download time was a bit slow, but no surprise on release date.
integrated really well into fsx and no hang-ups.

i was so curious how its gonna look like and i must say: its a beauty! flying low and high, it´s really a big plus. not as much patterns as before. better colors. fields and crops look stunning. cities have the right shape and atmo. tested Frankfurt, Paris, Sao Paulo, Denver. Especially in Sao Paulo the city no longer looks like a small town but like the megacity it is.
buildings and roads fit perfectly. the weather themes are of no need for me since i use rex ess.plus.

but....:

LOD fsx.cfg

raised LOD to 10 instead of 4.5 or 6.5
still smooth 30 fps

reason: reinstalled fs global ultimate. installation is a pain in the ass...but so much worth it!

FSX and autogen popping

I guess i am not the only one who always got annoyed by the massive autogen popping since RTM became SP1 and 2.
And i just recently gave up the hope, some magic would happen and i would recieve an email with the fixed code attached to it.

but....
i found a way to be happy again. My thought was: how could autogen become scenery. If so, it would not pop-up as massive as autogen and you could see buildings in the far distance, far out of the circle around the aircraft. just limited to the smallpartreject figure.

i tried to find a way to save the autogen while airborne...silly me.(but hey, i was really frustated).
in the end, all those weird thoughts and searches made me find a programm i should have remembered first caused i was using other software from this guy already.

Airbus X Extended fps "tweak"

For those of you who love the AXE (like me :-)) but don´t get enough fps....kill the view bars in the config panel right of the throttles...about 2-5 fps extra without them...
...unless you want to view the birds instead of flying a plane

don´t forget....use control + O for pan view....
