HF for v5.2 sounds good - but there are your informations from?
Is there a chance that the loss of performance of FPS gets a solution/workaround, too?

[Jameson]

Anything that improves performance and fixes anything is very welcome, so thank you LM for your continuous and highly appreciated work.

Where are you seeing the FPS problem?
For example , with VR or a specific Add-on?

Note:
I am still waiting on many of my Add-ons to be updated / certified by developers for P3Dv5.2

Just hope they'll fix those stutters when using/switching cameras and sudden drops to FPS=5 and freezes of GSX option menus and SHIFT+Z problems and freezing ...

Thanks to it I had to stop flying - that is so annoying.

Please do something about unstable 2d windows (e.g FMC and associated context menus). I use two monitors; one for VC and a smaller one for 2 FMC's. After undocking, trying to move them to second monitor causes them to go black. Right clicking brings them back but the context menu comes up somewhere on the main monitor instead of near the FMC that was Right-clicked. It is impossible to select anything in said menu. I usually lock the window in place, but that cannot be done for whatever reason; in fact, all selections in above context menus are not selectable.

Win10 is U2D and Nvidia drivers have been updated using DDU in safe mode. I always run P3D5.2 in full screen mode.

Thanks LM for a great job!

May I also ask you to add the missing taxiway signs as well if still on time before releasing? Would highly appreciate that!

Thanks for your hard work!

Hi Samulias,


if your request is addressed to me, I would have very gladly tried to solve the problems reported by you and those of the other posts but
maybe fortunately ... I don't work in LM because I don't know how to solve them!

I remind you that the names shown in the posts of those who represent LM, are written in red such as: Rob McCarthy, Adam Breed or Chris Metel.

Anyway, if there are any updates on this HF1, you can check it down on the link page of my post.

Does this mean the 5.2 hotfix has been released? Or just in the works? Seems a vague tack on at the end.
Thanks
