Toronto Lester B. Pearson International airport (CYYZ) is the largest and busiest airport in Canada, the second busiest international gateway in the Americas, and the 30th busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic with 50.5 million passengers passing through the airport in 2019.

I am happy with my purchase, however, I wish RegDesigns would communicate better with the community and update us on fixes and updates to the product, even if it's just previews, it's better than no communication at all.
The developers have been quiet on their own discord server as well. The last announcement was posted in March.

Well I should have read the comments before buying this. Like others' experience noted on here, the frame rates are horrible and makes the sim so jerky, it's no fun to play. I have uninstalled this product, now trying to get a refund. I'm happy to jump over to FlyTampa's YYZ.
Crunchmeister
Released 2 months ago in a utterly unfinished state to try to beat FlyTampa to the punch and this broken turd still hasn't been fixed yet. Still unusable and no permanent fix in sight.
If I could give it a negative star rating, I would. Even if they fix it, this is the last RegDesigns product I ever buy. This is not how a new dev should try to impress the community.

This mod has 13 GB. It is expected to work only on a high spec computer. I have 5900X RTX3070Ti SSD-Samsung 980Pro memory 36 and it is CTD. The texture data for the mod is much larger than necessary. 8K size is not necessary. I used XnConvert to resize this data and cut everything in half. It is now at 6.47GB with no problems. The producer should consider the user's environment.

I bought this directly from their site and Its unplyable.I wish I had waited and bought the FT version.

Amigos es un excelente trabajo, (hermoso aeropuerto), no tuve problemas en la descarga aproximadamente 10 minutos entre descarga e instalación, y menos en el desempeño y no tengo una super maquina, I7-4790 32gb de RAM y una RTX2060 Super para unos 28FPS estables

the devs need to bring down the poly count dramatically....

Oh I wish I had read these reviews before buying it. I was so happy to see MSFS scenery for CYYZ [my home airport as well] that I just bought it. But, like many other comments, the performance is horrendous. It took almost ten minutes to extract from the zip file and install. It's about 13.2 gigs in size, compared to 3 for most sceneries. My pretty good fps were reduced to just static images every few seconds. I was finally able to escape.
I wouldn't try this scenery unless you have a supercomputer.

Horrible performance and unusable at the moment. FlyTampa is miles ahead
PilotalexYYZ
I was excited and while it looks great HOLY even with my computer and a GTX3070 , 32GB ram , i7 i can barely use pan. Such a shame as this looks simply amazing.
jlinares
A very detailed scenery but unfortunatelly a FPS killer and make it unusable. Hope the developers works on a balance between perfomrance and quality, in the other case these will be a almost $20 to the garbage.
MrDeftish
Like many others I am experiencing a huge FPS drop making it completely unusable. Super Computers only I guess.

Awesome product. I've been waiting for a YYZ airport since this game came out because it's my home airport. It's been modelled almost perfectly with a few missing things which if they exist, this is easily five stars.
Other than that, I love this scenery and I hope it recieves regular updates!
EDIT:
Made an edit to the review because I just found out the FlyTampa also makes a YYZ add-on now. They released it this week and in some aspects, it is much better for cheaper as well.
The textures look a lot better on FlyTampa but I recommend you do a comparison before buying.
Enjoy!
EDIT 2:
After playing a bit more and doing some flights, I'm not experiencing the low fps that everyone has but there are way too many stutters to make this usable. It is currently unuable without turning down settings with a 3080.
Crunchmeister
Beautifully detailed work, but drops my fps from 50+ fps (with default autogen CYYZ) to 10 fps making it essentially unusable. Shame considering I'm running a Ryzen 5950X, 64GB and a 2080. Needless to say, I regret this purchase.
If RegDesigns ever optimize this to make it usable without requiring an RTX3090 with 24GB VRAM (currently requires 20GB VRAM to load), I'll update this review and rating to give it the 5-star rating it should deserve.
But until then, it's a pointless piece of eye candy that can't be used without crippling the simulator. Unless you're rocking an RTX3090. Then you'll love it.

I've been dealing with the same issue as well. The simulator comes to a grinding halt while attempting to load into CYYZ with this scenery. I only managed to reach 5 FPS at 1440p on the ground. There was a lot of stuttering and high RAM usage that brought Windows to a crawl until I was forced to end the sim through Task Manager. None of my other scenery add-ons have this issue.
PC parts for reference:
ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3080 10 GB
AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
G.Skill Trident Z 16 GB DDR4 @ 3200MHz

runs fine on my nvidia card which is less than you have 2080 Super.

This is simple AWESOME work. So beautiful. Thank you so much. If only Montreal Trudeau would be as good.

There's actually a free CYUL here on flightsim.to that's pretty awesome.
Cosmic_Ray 4 month(s) ago
its not that great since its a XP11 import
aviateur 4 month(s) ago
I tried a couple of freeware but nothing compared to a real good payware the quality of CYYZ.
Crunchmeister 4 month(s) ago
It's far better than autogen and quite easy on the frames.
Although I agree. A properly made version would be far preferable.
aviateur 4 month(s) ago
Fly Tampa have remake CYUL but I didn't try it.
alexsandwich
Just bought this and wow am I impressed. Great work
Sonosusto
Oh wow that is amazing. I think I am going to put this on my to-buy list soon. This is absolutely amazing work here!
FlyingTiger
Yes! Downloading as I text. Finally! Montreal would be a BIG wish come true. I love the way the jetways work with the AIG AI traffic. Any GA parking for the corporate jets? Looks as well as it performs.

5 stars while your still downloading it?

Finally...Looks incredible! Congratulations on your first major airport scenery!! Is there an option to remove static airplanes?
