FSDG – Sharm El-Sheikh X FS9 SETTINGS FS9 usually offers very good framerates and performance on today's PC generation. Our testers and users report that they had no troubles running FS9 with maximum graphic and scenery settings. We advise you to try this first. If you experience bad framerates or stutters, reduce the air traffic settings, the autogen or set the scenery slider to “dense” or “normal”.
FSDG – Sharm El-Sheikh X If you use an AI traffic add-on like MyTraffic or Ultimate Traffic you will have realistic air traffic at Sharm El-Sheikh airport. To achieve the most realistic experience you should set the airline density and general aviation density to 50-70%. SCENERY SHADOWS We advise you not to enable scenery shadows on this airport. Scenery shadows cost a lot of performance and are limited to a generic, rather artificial shadow model in FS9 as well as FSX.
FSDG – Sharm El-Sheikh X F.A.Q. Q: Is this add-on DX10 compatible? (FSX) A: Like most scenery add-ons, Sharm El-Sheikh 2012 cannot be used with the FSX DX10-preview mode. Q: Is this add-on compatible with other add-ons like UTX or FS Global? A: There should be no problem with any other add-on. Q: AI aircraft vanish after landing, get stuck before take-off or turn around on the runway. How can I fix this? A: This is default behavior (mainly FSX) that cannot be fixed by the scenery.
