Sinking simulator 2 ships pack full#

On the minimum spec - roughly the double.

With all routes installed the simulator again has to run through the routes and it took around 40 seconds before ships appears again now in new positions according to new time of the day. Reducing the number of routes to 370 - that is North West Europe & Baltic routes only for a test flying out of Calais - the high end computer saw less than 10 seconds additional load time compared to no AI Ship traffic the low end PC slightly more but still not something really noticeable.Ĭhanging time in the simulation means that the sim again has to check which ships are close and should be displayed, so it recalculates again. This is due to the fact that it is 24.000 ship movements passing at least 250.000 way points which are being calculated… So load time is impacted. The minimum spec computer spent 120 seconds more in the startup.

The sim will start loading AI traffic routes once the departure airport, plane etc has been selected and you enter the flight:Ĭompared with a situation with no AI ship traffic the high end computer spent 40-50 seconds more when it had to read the full package with all 2000 routes installed. Let’s start with the initial load time for the sim:

This is not a professional technical test, but rather an observation to see if there are differences and things which can be done to optimize. One just meeting the minimum spec for MSFS and the other a high end gaming computer with GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, Ryzen 9 3900X, 4x8GB 3200MHz DDR4, 1TB SSD. Also users have different criteria when flying: some focus on the accuracy of systems and others spend the time looking out the windows to see the scenery etc… Add to that different levels of patience…īut in order to come with some recommendations for optimization I have been running tests together with one of the Beta testers, Knud, on two completely different computers. No two computers and settings are the same, so users will experience differences.

While most users seems to be quite happy with performance some have reported issues:
