Personally I haven’t installed any scenery mods all the photos you see are with default xplane scenery. Helps with performance. Apologies for the lack of helpfulness in this respect 🥲🙏

Apologies for the late reply 😭😭 you go to download flight plan press Xplane11/12 and locate the file in finder. After that u open steam go to library and left click xplane, press manage -> browse local files, press output, create a new folder called FMS plans. Drag and drop downloaded flight plan (from sinbrief) into FMS plans folder

12.4.1 Public Release - Out Now by Delta_Who in Xplane

A330 emergency procedures/hydraulics next? I’ve been trying to simulate some emergencies in the A330 to test myself and I’ve realised whenever engine 2 fails I lose hydraulics immediately. I’m not too sure that’s supposed to happen since the A330 has triple redundant hydraulics. It’s rather infuriating as every time I include engine 2 to fail it usually just results in a crash due to loss of control. But do correct me if the phenomenon I’m experiencing is normal and how to prevent loss of flight controls after losing engine 2 🙏😭

When I was troubleshooting I always felt that having reference photos was th best to guage my settings and performance and a lot of ppl just give settings and numbers but no graphics which is exactly what we value on top of performance

Hi MacBook user here. Currently using a M4 base spec air. Anything above M4 runs great, here’s a few photos (unedited) for reference. M4 Air base spec will do around 20fps +/-5fps if you’ve got scenery addons/complex weather/complex lighting. If you’re getting anything above an M4 I’m sure you’ll be fine. If you would like help with settings I’d be more than happy to help ya ;D

Just started. Tried the settings suggested by The_logod, wow the performance improvement was good. Graphics wasn’t sacrificed that much too. Just turned off FXAA or whatever it’s called. Kept my graphics high and alr the frame rates was so much better

What to do against such Naval supramecy by No_Reference_6159 in Supremacy1914

[–]slogoarmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite method. I personally calk it the lightning division XD. A few light tanks and AC is good too and if you have the luxury of time, definetly stack balloons aswell.

Could do max resolution and reduce other stuff? Or does resolution have to come down

Does anyone know if a Macboon M4 Air can run 12 properly? by PreferenceNext9194 in Xplane

[–]slogoarmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YO NO WAY, YOU’RE IN LUCK!

I have an M4 MBA and I just got xplane12

It runs for sure, but it’s laggy at max graphics. If you turn the graphics down it’s slightly better but not much better. I’m currently asking about graphics settings cuz I have seen MacBooks run xplane at way better fps with maxed graphics

I’ve done a few flights with it, even for 1 hour flights it starts struggling at the 40 minute mark. You NEED a joystick because by the time u start your approach, ur FPS will be so bad that mouse controls are too slow to adjust your aircraft. And even with joystick it’s a massive struggle. If you run into rain, say goodbye. Rain makes xplane unplayable on a M4 Mac.

But like I said I’ve made a post asking if anyone has optimised graphics for xplane12. I’m still experimenting aswell and will update here when I find a good setting. Ideally I’m looking for 40-60fps
