yeah, it's a bit heavy in performance but it's a very large city wink FPS are variable, but less than 25-30 FPS and more or less about 20-25 in best cases wink I have to reduce a bit some rendering options...

Main specs: i7 3770 + 16 GB RAM + GTX 680 3GB VRAM running over Win 7 x64 bits (for me one of the most important a part of processor is the amount of VRAM in graphics card, at least >= 2GB)

And in this case the rendering options:

- Texture res: extreme
- HDR rendering: Active (and all special effects active)
- Number of clouds: 50%
- Shadow detail: global (high)
- World detail distance: very high
- HDR anti-aliasing: 4x SSAA + FXAA
- Anisotropic filter: x16 (extreme)
- Number of objects: tons (*)
- Number of roads: tons (*)
- Traffic: New York (*)
- Compress textures to save VRAM: active
- Weather: cirrus/few cumulus/none (*)

(*) some parameters are variables depends on the scene, because this city is very large and is a bit heavy in performance, I had to reduce some of them in some scenes of this video to improve a little the FPS... I hope you help a little ;)

That's easily the best NYC scenery I've ever seen in a flight sim.
