Very high vram usage in p3dv5

[spencer.hoefer]

Hello,

I am experiencing very high vram usage with this aircraft. If I disable real light will that cause all of the aircraft lighting to stop working? Real light is basically unusable in p3dv5 at this point due to the amount of Vram it consumes. I am usually seeing no more than 5gb in urban areas, but with this aircraft and real light I am at 6.5/7.1gb. This is with my texture res on medium and cloud shadows disabled.

Disabling real light will make the lighting non functional.

Are using the texture streaming option in P3D?

You can install the lower resolution textures by choosing "custom" during install and deselecting the high res texture option.

Tried the lower res option, but unfortunately vram usage is still pretty high. It looks like a user made a post about this over on the TFDI forum, so at least they are aware of the issue.
