Another great update. Now the reverser axis is working well (tried the A320 and it's working).

I have a question regarding the Vulkan and the High-quality AA, does it intend to make textures to look more clear or with better definition when flying in VR?.

Keep up the good work!.

Thanks, Ed

Ed, vulkan itself will not make for better graphics but the High Quality AA will sharpen and crisp it up a bit but at a small performance compromise.

Everyone,

anyone that may post a bug report with this latest version before you post anything, make sure you have tested this with the latest graphics card drivers. Also before posting, if you experience problems first try to delete your 'main.mcf' file located in your documents\Aerofly FS 2 root folder; this will reset your graphics settings and clear any possible processes that should have been cleared.

Another note, if you are experiencing crashing make sure that your system is using the proper dedicated drivers for your graphics card as sometimes Windows update tends to overwrite these with their own driver set.

When posting a bug report, make sure you mention which GPU driver you have and your actual GPU model.

I'm actually testing with Vulkan enabled + High Quality AA enabled + VSync ON, and the performance impact is very very little.

Cheers, Ed

Hi

Can you please elaborate on 'Cultivation files can reference XRef objects' ?

How does it work?

admin · July 5, 2018 at 9:44 PM Official Post

Cultivation files can now reference our XRef objects like this:

Code

<[file][][]
    <[cultivation][][]
        <[string8][coordinate_system][lonlat]>
        <[list_vegetation_map_exclusion_zone][vegetation_map_exclusion_zone_list][]
        >
        <[list_plant][plant_list][]
        >
        <[list_building][building_list][]
        >
        <[list_light][light_list][]
        >
        <[list_xref][xref_list][]
            <[xref][element][0]
                <[string8][name][test]>
                <[vector3_float64][position][-123.001606 44.907438 0]>
                <[float32][direction][93]>
            >
            <[xref][element][1]

                <[vector3_float64][position][-123.001606 44.907438 0]>
                <[float32][direction][95]>
            >

                <[float32][direction][185]>
            >
            <[xref][element][2]

Still no joy with Vulkan / VR on my 1080TI

please explain this better.

Check your GPU drivers. You need the latest drivers plus make sure that Windows didn't replace them with their own. This is definitely something isolated to your system, as it's been fully verified that Vulkan interacts just fine with the GTX 1080ti card. In fact it's one of my Aerofly testing cards.

Also, make sure that there is nothing running on your system that may be interfering with Vulkan rendering.

Please provide your TM log as well.

Vulcan is working with my Vive Pro and 1080ti now. Thanks!

Stringer · July 6, 2018 at 10:00 AM

Great, thanks!

TomB · July 6, 2018 at 10:05 AM

Everything fine now with cultivation (houses, trees). Thanks!

Hi All,

Maybe a stupid question here but if I'm not wrong there are now 2 (beta) updates with regards to Vulkan and other enhancements mentionned before. The last update (version 2.01.05.15) containing fixes against the first version.

Should we have to install both updates or is the second one equal to the first update + fixes ?

Thanks.

J van E · July 6, 2018 at 10:23 AM

This was already the case with the previous version of the beta but since that topic is closed I'll post it here: the wheel sounds of the Airbus are too soft or missing. I can't hear it if I have taken off and I specially can't hear it when I touch the ground. I seem to remember this was the case before. (Take note that I don't even know if it is realistic to hear this! )

Thank you, just thumbed up before I read.

Must be this way: the second one is equal to the first update + fixes.

is not real to hear the wheels touchdown from the cockpit . It is more like you feel vibrations.

flowerdealer · July 6, 2018 at 6:28 PM

Anyone else seeing some weird flicker/vibration in VR using Vulkan, when showing the options overlay?

edpatino · July 7, 2018 at 4:17 AM

Just to remember, still error issues with the runway objects on some user-created airports (see picture below), after the two beta updates. Using version 2.01.05.17 now.

This problem was previously solved in all my user-created airports, but that fix obviously did not solve the issue on other user airports (including airports with grass runways).

Thanks, Ed
