This scenery has taken nearly two months for me to complete and I consider this my biggest yet as far as coverage area goes. Roughly 50 square miles have been covered which includes the following
- Hoe
- Devonport
- Torpoint
- HMS Raleigh
- Saltash
- Tamar Bridge
- Derriford Hospital
- Plympton
- Plymstock
- EGHD Plymouth Airport (Custom tweaked for this scenery)
Special thanks to the following for making this scenery possible and use of assets
- Superspud for his EGHD Plymouth Airport reactivation (recommended for decomissioned airport to show on the world map)
- KL791 for use of his assets from his incredible add on Global AI Ship Traffic
- Thalixte for his Google Earth Decoder optimization
Cheers

I finally found out after using all sorts of combinations of parts and settings that part 1 is the issue. I can run at over 60fps with max settings without part 1 but about 14 fps with any other combination of parts if part 1 is included. The problem of course is that part 1 is the main part. Not sure if anything can be done to resolve this.

Very impressive, but sadly I drop from 42 to 9 fps (whatever release of MSFS May '23 is). It's inspired me to have a go myself on another town/village

Absolutely brilliant and you have done an excellent job of bringing the place to life especially around the harbour area. Can't praise this highly enough. Was getting roughly 25-30 fps and my Pc is getting fairly long in the tooth but was a smooth and highly enjoyable experience

Beautiful scenery, but in SU10, it cripples my frame rate, as reported by others. Hope you can find the reason why this should be.

Worked great in SU9 but no good for me after SU10. It causes stutters and there are cliffs everywhere in the scenery. Such a shame it was great.

As much as I love the scenery, being born in Plymouth, I have had to uninstall Plymouth 1 - 10, as they reduce the framerate with the latest FS updates to <10 fps in VR. With them removed I am getting around 50 fps (around 40 in downtown San Francisco), so my 3080ti isn't the problem.
I actually flew a PA28 from Plymouth when it was still open and I had my PPL active, so at least I can fly from there with the scenery removed.
Any ideas on why the scenery is causing such a big framerate hit?

Brilliant! Just downloaded this and had a good fly round, and it was so good, I went and got my poor hard done by other half to come and see the Torpoint ferry port!! So much to see and so much that recognisable .. Fantastic stuff.

Thank you and glad you liked the airport too.. I wouldnt consider myself an airport developer but I had a few library objects at hand that I could use to at least give a small revamp and life.
Yes, of course, Superspud indeed gets a mention here. Hats of and credit to all the other devs
