investigating More VRAM friendly cockpit and cabin

[rexizam]

On my RTX 4080 with 16 GB VRAM I run out of VRAM when I pan the camera towards the flight engineer deck.

This happens on both busy airports on the ground and in small default airports.

Is there a plan to include a variant with lower texture resolution or without the cabin perhaps?

I believe this will improve performance for those of us who can't afford a 24 or 32 GB video card and still want to enjoy the plane on high graphics settings 🙂

Somehow, this is the only 3rd party add-on airplane that eats so much VRAM on my current graphics configuration and usual airports I fly to and from.

Couldn't agree more, even with DLSS Perfomance it exceeds the 12GB of VRAM of my 4070. Almost unplayable.

Hi, in my testing on a 5080 VRAM usage at detailed sceneries was around 12-13gb. What are you seeing on your system?

12-13 GB is also too much for people with 12GB cards.

I even use AutoFPS to tweak my TLOD and OLOD during flight.

I have no problems with other Addon Aicraft, like PMDG, FSLabs; Toliss, TFDi or the 3 Inibuild Airbusses (A300, A340 and A350)

So please if You use 8K textures, make a Lite version with 4K.

I have to agree with these posts. This is by far the worst performing plane in the sim for me due to the VRAM usage. I had 7 fps on landing rollout at ORBX ESSA in the Tristar. With all other aircraft in the sim I'd have at least 30. This is on a 3060 Ti with 8GB VRAM and all settings on low or medium
