This game is pretty memory hungry. I stuck another 16 gig in my machine today taking it to 32 now as I was getting almost 100 percent ram use. It's gobbling up about 19 on my system now, I am hoping for less CTD now. We shall see!
Weird mine only seems to use/goto 50% ram usually of my 32gb, this is at 4k

I’ve heard a few people say the same thing, which I don’t really understand because the last time I tested FS it was eating around 9-10GB RAM :confused:
 
My ram comments were a little misleading above. I meant to say system memory with game running. Now, I have nothing else of note running, just the Xbox game app, not even a browser. My system was using around 19 when running. Before I stuck 32 in my Ryzen setup, it was showing around 95 percent in use using the Ms performance app.

Ahh fair enough bud :)

Help guys am trying to think of some special places to fly over but i can't think of any now :o

I was quite surprised and happy to see a number of POIs showing as I flew over the UK last time - a welcome feature for someone like me that has no sense of direction :p
 
Before this came out i was thinking of loads of places i wanted to fly over, Now i have the sim my mind gone blank :D

Haha, I know exactly what you mean :D

I still need to try flying over NYC, but I’m scared of my computer exploding in a tantrum :p

Edit: The Grand Cannon is also on my list of things to see :)

Edit2: I’ll keep that for the lols, but of course I meant canyon* :p
 
I've whacked a few more settings like reflections and terrain detail to Ultra, framerates seem same as the high-end preset so will stay with at 3440x1440 :cool:

If you like Queenstown try UKHU I loved scenery around this airport.

Nice! I will fly there this weekend.

As for now, I had a bit of fun this eve...


Also switch the engines off (CTRL+SHIFT+E) at high altitude and simply glide along like a silent bird, so peaceful! CTRL+E to turn back on, press only once and allow time for them to slowly spool back up.
 
Now it's crashing before getting to the menu. Feels kinda bad to uninstall after downloading so much data but it's clearly not going to play nice.
 
Does anyone playing this through Game Pass know how to add it to AMD Wattman? The .exe seems to be hidden away somewhere.
 
Glad I didn't pay for this mess. Can't even get off the ground without a null dereference crash.

Do you think it’s a problem with the game? You know... considering theres plenty of people running the game with no issue?

(Sorry for the sass - couple of pints in :p)
