KMIA 5.1 P3D v5

[mbell]

I get an abort screen ran out of memory every time it finishes loading. Changes in settings does not help.. I have a GTX NVIDIA 1080 8GB video card.

Looks great in P3Dv4.5. Can't see it in v5. Any ideas?

Hi, you need to put texture size on 1024x1024 if you are using truesky. Let us know

OK how does one change the texture size?

OK how does one change the texture size?

go to OPTIONS, then display options, graphics, display TEXTURE RESOLUTION. You will have it there.

Thanks I will give it a try.

As an observation I have the following LVFR airports installed in v5

TXKF
TJSJ
KBWI
KMSY
KRDU
KSNA
SCEL
KMIA

I tested using a Carenado cessna 337 one circuit of the pattern with no AI or static aircraft. All loaded in and ran at between 2.6GB-3.6GB except for KMIA that loaded and ran 6.1-6.6. Using the KMIA config and turning off the two options that loaded static aircraft brought it down to 5.8-6.1GB Not sure what under the hood but KMIA is a lot heavier on the system than the rest.

Lowered the textures in the sim as you advised and added the two items in the config (static aircraft and HD ground clutter). Loading in did drop to 4.8GB. Still wondering why KMIA uses so much more VRAM than all of my other add on airports including non LVFR ones.

Try and untick animations please.

First thing I did was kill animations
