Burkhard Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Dear friends, the Notebook edition of MyTraffic2006 got finished, tested and packed now. Installation below, Husain please make sticky. You can download it from http://www.fsrail.com/Notebook.zip It replaces the mip mapped DXT3 textures throughout by non reflective not mipmapped textures, for many aircrafts reduced in size. In addition some models have been enhanced by placing LOD-switching nearer to the observer. It has been tested on several notebooks and other systems (like shared memory grafics) to give significantly improvements. Even on a Centrino Notebook, it runs without stuttering at 70% AI density. Installation instructions: download ( 80MB approx) and save at a safe place. a) Make a backup of your aircraft directory. b) Unzip Notebook.zip to a temporary diretory, in there you will find a subdirectory "aircraft", in there the known MyTraffic directories. c) Copy all those directories into your \aircraft folder, overwriting their contents. You can do that reversely from the backup you made to partly undo the change case you want. While mainly tested on Notebooks, this version might also be the solution for other cases where your combination of hardware, BIOS, firmware, driver, DirectX, FS9, FS9 addons and settings of all these layers does not meet your expectations.

hassata Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Any reviews? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel0628 Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Yep it works and gives noticable performance increase. Before i locked fps are NY's airport EWR,LGA,JFK(Simfyers) at 17FPS now its locked at 25! At okecie,poland(EPWA) i actually average 25FPS. Only downfall of my traffic is do to so many aircraft and me getting aerosoft's frankfurt i cant fly to and from with traffic. Must be 0% s i can average 25FPS. Even at 100% i can average 10-15FPS but once u move and textures have to reload it hangs up and it makes it hard for my laptop to reload frankfurt and all the ai. I can say this: Almost all parkings at frnakfurt are full at 100% traffic which annoys me since i cant get a parking where i want to :roll: On desktop i got also my traffic 2006 and frankfurt. but since instead of 64MB go 5600 on laptop i got a 256MB FX5500 on desktop and i can average 20FPS with 100% traffic and aerosofot franfurt with all settings except clouds turned up to max.

hassata Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Thanks Paul. I am not a "spotter." Would you say there is a noticable drop in quality for a "non-spotter" like me? I am thinking of installing on my desktop because I am always looking for a few fps more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel0628 Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 no quality difference. Its same textures without mipmaps and i think smaller texture size. quality= no difference; performance= noticable difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkhard Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 There is a slight quality difference on very near aircrafts that cover more than half the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel0628 Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Well i cant notice it atleast lol. Got my traffic 2006 on desktop and got notebook 1 on laptop and no difference i can notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkhard Posted December 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 It may well be that the typical quality difference of real monitors to Notebook screens is bigger than the resolution effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudflyer Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Can I use the notebook version for MT2004v21? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husain Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Cloudflyer, The Notebook edition is only designed for use with MyTraffic 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadagoose1 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 I am currently downloading the notebook version. I am assuming I can install it directly to my desktop and it will work? If so do I just install over my existing MT2006? Regards, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
