FSX...... pauses

[speedbird591]

The tide is turning Tony

Yep. I'm ready to go FSX too!

Thanks for all of that

Paul..
This is a fresh config. I was assuming the program could determine what were the optimums were when it rebuilt the config.. hence that's why we all do it when things go wrong

20fps looked like a bag of worms so I upped it to 25. Before the rebuild, I was seeing these pauses though to be honest.. I'd probably not spent enough time in FSX to notice. Framerate before was at 30fps (my screen refresh is 60hz) Sliders are as the rebuilt config set them other than framerate lock and water texture level (as mentioned earlier, if I leave it at the default setting with GenXv2, I see odd (unintentional) water textures/artifacts). GenX kills all autogen so what I'm flying over is either sea or smooth landscape (I only use FSX over the UK as the ROTW looks pony.. as did the UK without GenX)

As for Network status monitor.. I've no idea. AV.. it's on. Registry Key Discseek.. I've never heard of it

Oh.. I moved the visibility down to 30miles.. forgot about that

I can turn all the sliders to zero and have it look like FS9 I suppose but what would be the point

DaveB.. off for a long defrag and bed

Theres was a reference on this very forum to an article on aerosoft forum ... I can't seem to find it now, but I've posted it over at HJG, under Tweakings ... and I've used it myself ... It is VERY worth your while following it .... the actual document is called settings.pdf and the title of the article is something like "why do I always get 50 fps" ... or something ... should pop-up right away in a Google search.

Change the record Tony, it's getting very boring

Noted and self chastised

[DaveB]

Oo-er.. that 'child' looks a little old for that sort of treatment!

Cheers Dan.. got that mate I'll give it a whirl later today

You wont be disappointed, I kid you not!



Hm... regarding Tony's selfportrait .... I've heard that some actually do that kind of thing just for amusement ....

I know of one particular aircraft that works extraordinary well in FSX .... AND it's British .... AND it's both Classy AND classic.

As Dan says, all of DM's stuff works fine in FSX now. If you need help installing it, just ask

Yes, thanks guys. I tried it a while back and with Dan's help got it working fine in FSX. But the experience wasn't as good as in FS9 so I uninstalled FSX and gave it away. I fly DM's FS9 aircraft 95% of the time so there's nothing in FSX that would improve my simming pleasure. Come the day someone releases an FSX version of the VC10/1-11/Trident or Comet, with all the enhancements that would bring - I'll install it without hesitation!

Not sure what else your looking for in the models Ian, they are the same in FSX and FS9?
