Endyamon 48 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Thanks for amazing airfield but .. hmm. on approach CPU usage increases from 50% to 75-80 % and FPS little decrease .. (55Ffps to 30Fps), after the distance from the island, the use remains on high value (Fps too ... 30Fps). "New York .. Ultra - 40-45 Fps" Someone similar experience ?

Sirids 190 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Will there be a discount for MSFS, as I already own it in X Plane 11? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raz Goeta 376 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Thanks for the great words and compliments guys! I really hope you having good time with Vienna, Kos and Zell Am See and get ready for next coming EDDT, LIRQ and ENCN (and long list of super exciting destinations we will present soon (some are really out nof the box!). 6 hours ago, Sirids said: Will there be a discount for MSFS, as I already own it in X Plane 11? For Vienna we gave 30% discount for existing cusomerts of Vienna. In addition, we reduce the prices of all of our products by great numbers (GYI- P3D and XP are still settling) For Kos no- That product has been giveaway for free for more than 8000 people. By the end of the day we are a commercial business who also need to have profit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I7 5960X@4,5Ghz, 32GB RAM, GTX 1080Ti. 1440p yeah. i have exactly the same issue. i sent a ticket about that issue. its only this airport with the scenery. evereything else is 55fps on high end setting 1440p. departing from this airport decreases fps to 20-30 outside and inside the cockpit. it will not increase when the airport is out of sight. i did no approach on the airway so i cant tell the opposite direction. Any words from the developer regarding this?

Raz Goeta 376 Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Hi guys, The reason for that is the flying birds we implimented into Kos. We plan to release an update the coming week to give you the option to turn it on/off. Meanwhile, here is the manual solution we can't describe better than @Cygnific : "To save people frustration and waiting for a patch, rename in your data install folder *:\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Official\OneStore\asobo-simobjects-animals\SimObjects\Animals Flamingo and Seagull to _Flamingo and _Seagull or delete it's folder content (after backing up obviously) There is a issue with animated birds spawning." **Note- it's unofficial issue and on your own risk until we will release the offical update.

Bart176 0 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Please help... I'm still having large the framerate-drop . I purchased KOS yesterday via the built-in marketplace in Flight Simulator. I've tried the work around by deleting the Flamingo and Seagull folders, but no success. Framerates resume to normal when the airport is no longer in view. Searching the net and this forum I found a few topics about this, but most of them give me "Sorry, there is a problem You do not have permission to view this content. Error code: 2F173/K". Second problem is that the busses on the airport all are partly underground. So the only things I see are their roofs passing by. Is Microsoft still offering an old version on their marketplace? EDIT: this seems to be the problem. Installed version via MSFS says 1.01, where the Orbx Central has 1.1.0... Edited February 20 by Bart176 Added text about versions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carlosqr 4,851 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Hello Bart Have you tried the install and reinstall of the product? I know the marketplace takes very long to update products I wanted to see the Flamingos but I have not been lucky to spot them. Do they appear at a certain month of the year or an specific time/hour? I've never seen them Cheers Carlos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bart176 0 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Hello Carlos, I did a reinstall and it seems to do the trick (still the older version though). I haven't tried to enable the Flamino and Seagull folders, so no spotting for me... I'm very happy I can use the airport now! Cheers! Bart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carlosqr 4,851 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Hi @Bart176 I'm glad you made it I would like to know how to spot the wildlife as I have not seen them My folders are there but I have not seen the flamingos and I have the latest version... I'm going to launch it again and see I this time. Cheers Carlos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

carlosqr 4,851 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) Hello @Raz Goeta Hope you are doing fine As per this text LGKO: 1. Massive FPS and performance improvment. We removed the animated birds and made further optimization- fixed. 4. Star on the simulator map- Added. I understand now why I don't see the birds. I see no display of the star in my sim map actually I have to zoom in a lot to see the location of the airport What should I do to have the star displayed, please? I like that Cheers Carlos Edited February 23 by carlosqr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xsist77 2 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 (edited) need help purchase KOS yesterday, during approach i get a smooth 40 to 50 fps however when exiting the runway and nearing the terminal I only get 20 fps. is this normal? it couldn't be my system since I have loww and florence airports and i get 35 plus fps when parking at the terminal. Edited February 25 by xsist77 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xsist77 2 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 okay update it seems that i only get low fps when using the longitude since when i switched to cj4 i get solid 40fps at the terminal thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
