This airport is really great. Update 1.7 is out
Asobo’s is fine enough.
I have a 4080 and at 1440p i have 50fps even with DLSS + DLAA
frame gen.
This is far better in detail than FB, but I wonder why they released it imcomplete. The exterior model is completed, but As I explored the airport with a drone alot of interior terminals have signs saying Underconstruction coming soon! Guess a future update will have a complete airport but atleast they did the clear window terminals and the main part of the airport!
I checked the 1.6 update. Now BMW is already far ahead of FB. This is the best San Francisco in the last 30 years.
The sixth update has already been released. These guys are just monsters. They improved absolutely everything and added many small details. Now Flightbeam is very far behind. After years of Flightbeam dominance, we have a new king in KSFO ! I recommend using this airport.
After having tested both, I think I’ll keep this one. The brown terrain fits a lot better the surroundings. Frames are similar to FB. This once has some details FB doesn’t have but vice versa, they should have worked together on this project, a merge would be best. What I like the most here is the color of the terminal, that violet seems more realistic and matches many photos also against that green glass gives a sense of depth. I like it better. I like both developers but I think I’ll go for BMW this time.
actually it’s weird how FB ended up with green airport grass , whileit seems not to have any .CGL files. BMW version achieves the more realistic brownish ground textures by simply relying on the photogrammetry ground
imagery within the airport.
highly recommend lossless scaling basically download fps
Nice scenario, for now it gives me good performance despite the fact that my equipment is not of the latest generation, Ryzen 3900X accompanied by an RTX 2070 Super, I just wait for Flightbeam to launch its KSFO.
Horrible FPS. What’s even more terrible is that I turned off most of the special effects and it was only 10FPS or even lower.
you should check the add-ons conflict issues~ that shouldn’t 10FPS~
Update greatly improved performance. They fixed COST GUARD to Coast Guard.
Performance is horrendous. Got a 4090 and this is averaging about 20-30FPS
You must have a serious problem with your PC, I’m using an RTX 2070 Super with a Ryzen 3900X and with traffic on, real-time weather and everything set to full runs me at an average of 35 to 42 FPS.
I like how BMWorld provides GSX profile for this, but not KMIA
v1.2.0 exists now
I think that Flightbeam fans who didn’t even install this version are writing about the poor performance. FB unlikely to do anything better.
your wrong. u must be new to the flight sim community if u call them “fans” lol
Terrible FPS on a high end PC. Quickly uninstalled. Avoid.
with my current job stress, Flightbeam will have released here before I can try BMWAmsim 🙁
The Coast Guard Hangar reads COST GUARD. Attention to detail? Think again. I bought it and I regret it. ASOBO recommended.
Very nice scenery, also fluid and performance is great !
Performance is atrocious, what are you talking about?
Asobos is more than sufficient.
Performance is fantastic
Thank you SP !
Great model and paint job! From FlightBeam we will receive simple boxes with drawings and photos on the roofs, as usual. Although this will suit guys with low-end computers. I have an amazing performance. Find reviews on YouTube, everything is great there.
You are talking nonsense, flightbeam is one of the best airports making and enjoying recognition, and this developer is horrible at optimizing and there are a lot of bugs in airport. They decided to release faster than the competitor, but people wait and don’t buy it
Your wrong… timmie Alert!! I REPEAT TIMMIE ALERT!!!
You must be Little Timmy then. Flightbeam airports should be the standard for MSFS optimization. They may well be the only developer who understands that a RTX4090 and a shiny new I9 cpu are not the norm.
Lots of lazy details: The Ramp Towers look like crap, missing blast fence all long the North Cargo and Signature Area, ect. When the interiors have details, how do you skip on crap like that? While it all looks impressive at a glance, if you compare it to real life, you can see the use of a lot of generic details that Flightbeam will not have.
First of all, this is better than default asobo and you are getting this airport for free so stop complaining. Second of all, flight beam’s KSFO will hopefully be coming out shortly which again you will also most likely be able to get for free.
It isn’t better than the default KFSO. Stop kidding yourself.
Bonjour
Je ne sais pas pourquoi je n’arrive pas à trouver KSFO de Abobo dans le gestionnaire de contenu pour le supprimer , obligé de passer par l’explorateur de Windows. Quelqu’un a la solution ?
it’s a premium deluxe airport, you probably have the standard MSFS edition and don’t need to delete it (unless you downloaded it from here)
I’m still in the dark age’s with a GTX1080 and have no issues with fps . Wonderful scenery
That’s one of the benefits of having a 720p display. Congrats?
For the rest of us, BMWorld’s sceneries are a bad joke.
Speak for yourself and the other miserable people at Avsim, not “the rest of us” Ray.
Am I the only one not having performance issues with this scene? Frames have been really good and I only have a 3070.
Horrible performance.
wen flightbeam
(jk, thank you)
Garbage developer who rush products to market to make quick money and then abandon them. BMWorld & Amsim are the reason websites like SimPlaza are needed … so we realize how terrible these sceneries are before spending hard-earned money on stutterfests
Thank you Mr Sim!
1.1.0 is out now
HORRID HORRID HORRID performance as usual from these frauds. Hate em’
13900k 4080 on 5190x1440p 10fps
There’s a reason why they chose iniBuilds to be their retailer. Or more affectionately known as StutterBuilds.
I7 nvidia gforce gtx 6 gb en ultrawide 34″ 24 fps
Thank you Mr. Sim!
foxtrot gate jetways don’t seem to work
lol this scenery will quickly be outdated…already is honestly.
Finally! Thanks SP!
Absolutely stunning airport. thanks simplaza
Actually, you can get the GSX profile from Inibuilds, made by Revertan
thanks, added it to the description
Holy studderfest on RTX 3070. Even without FSLTL. Classic BMWorld, I would wait until they optimize it
badass guys~ amazing airport~ FPS is bad for 5800X+GTX1060-6G+32G+1TSSD
But still loving it~
Por fin un aeropuerto de San Francisco decente y muy esperado por muchos, espero que merezca la pena comprarlo
If you don’t have a 4080 or better BMWorld and AmSim will spit in your face.
even then they will
Can’t wait for FlightBeam’s Captain’s Edition KSFO!
Thanks SimPlaza!
Thank you so much SP
> Airlines codes assigned to each parking
What is this actually used by, if anything? FSLTL uses Flightaware so they’ll assign the airlines to gates based on that, no airline gate assignment needed in the airport data.
FSLTL planes are indeed coded to park in the right gates, “Atc_parking_codes=XXX”. Why are you assuming this?
What are you asking am I assuming, that FSLTL does not use gate assignments? I am indeed, are you saying FSLTL actually DOES benefit from gate assignments?
Try getting a gate assignment from ATC 121.8
damnnn so quick!!! thank you so much simplaza!!! always appreciate ur hard work tysm!!! have a wonderful day everyone!!
quick ? you don’t know how sp was on its heyday, there were daily updates back then before having been recently replaced by weekly updates.
imagine, I have a life outside of this too
Monsieur Plaza, please do not be discourages by this. If you felt you neededs help with run this one day, due to heavy workload in real life, you can always go to your most trusted contributors. I hope you are happy and full of health.
Wow! How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Ignore the clowns, SimPlaza. You are doing GREAT work — better than anyone who has ever had a site like this for previous sims.
There’s a reason I don’t buy these, and that’s cause BMWorld keep designing their airports around RTX 4090s…
Flight Sims have always been ahead of the Hardware. This has been fact for Decades.
Simplaza, you are a god!
