Hello, I need some help.
Lately I'm having a big problem with this scenery since I updated to XP 11.30. At 11.26, the scenery was perfect but now at 11.30 I think LaminarResearch changed the way it loads objects or something, and this scenery goes horrible. The total FPS impact is not the problem. The problem is when you try to change your view/camera position when looking at the city, and it gives HUGE fps drops each time you move the camera. It's really annoying and I have had to unistall it because I couldn't make trips to KJFK (which I also have your scenery of it). As I said, each time I move the view XPlane starts loading and FPS go down to 1-2 and after 2 seconds the camera moves and this didn't happen in 11.26, where it was completely fluid and fast. I also tried creating a new XPlane installation and trying there, and I had the same results, so I'm pretty sure it's a problem of the scenery and not a problem of my XPlane. Some specs of my computer: Intel i7-6700K, GTX 1070 , 32GB ram.

We need to look on it, but you see - the problem is probably caused by the X-Plane update as your wrote that it didn't happen in 11.26. Maybe the good idea is to report it to Laminar too. Can you please provide me with you log.txt and scenery_packs.ini via Email marcin@drzewiecki-design.net ?

We checked our scenery after updating X-plane to last version + reinstalling the sceneries.

Unfortunately we do not see any fps drop, even on less powerful PC (4790K GTX970 24gb RAM)

In your log.txt and scenery_pack.ini we cannot find anything alarming.

I'm sorry to say that the only advise for now is to reduce graphic settings a little bit and see if there is any difference. But it's something strictly related to your PC / config / sim and thus we are not able to identify the problem, the more that no-one else reported the same problem so far.

Below there are two screenshots from LaGuardia:

The product should look exactly as on promo screenshots: http://www.drzewiecki-design.net/prodNYCity_XP.htm and hundrieds of moview available online (YouTube for example).
In general - it was designed to be viewed from normal flight angles traveling via helicopter routes.

1/DD_NY_City_XP.zip 2.download
This is the file I get when I download the scenery from the store.

2/DD_NY_City_XP.zip.download.zip
This is what I get after I decompress the file

3/Then I get this file
DD_NY_City_XP.zip.download

So none of this works to give the scenery.

Can you please give more instruction and help.
Andy

When I try and attach a screen shot I am told the files is too big.

Your download seems to be corrupt if you cannot decompress the zip file but you should contact your store about this. You may also give a try to download the file by a download manager.

BTW: to put the screenshots you may use this website for example: https://imgbb.com/
