I have never had to complain about frame rates before but this is awefull. I have a 2gig 512ram gf3 ti-200, and when i load the 737 at megis it starts and stays at the 7 to 8 frame rate per second area. It also takes like a minute to load the plane from the start up screen. This is using all of the models(vc, no vc, 2d, all). It starts and stays at 7 or 8 fps. I can run the PSS and PIC planes around 25 fps. Marc

I sure hope so too, this plane is FANTASTIC, but I'm getting 12-15fps on the following:1.7Ghz P4512MB SDRAMTi4200 128MB RAM 43.45 driversXP HomeThat's after I turned off aniso and AA, before I was getting 8 fps or less most times. I can get 25 fairly easily in the 767 PIC and 23 in the PSS Bus on those settings, and if I turn off all the aniso etc I get 30+. So there is definitely a problem here. :-(

An issue was identified with the VC. hace you tried the 2D panel-only selection ?(please sign your posts)anthonyAnthony MertonPrecision Manuals Developmenthttp://www.precisionmanuals.com

I know this isn't the answer you were looking for but my system is a 2.5 Ghz Athlon, 1 GB DDR ram and Radeon 8500 video card. With ALL sliders a max, SimFlyers KLAS or KLAX scenery and the 737NG 2D cockpit I have the frames locked at 30 FPS and that's what I get, 30 FPS... Mike B.

Same here :(XP 2600+ FSB 333 BartonMaxtor rpm 7200MSIG4 TI4200 Assus with 128 mb fast memory 3 ns (307/600)1 GB ddr crucial pc2700Win2k Pro SP3Via hyperion latestNvidia 43.51Have excellent frame rates normal with other add-ons (CS727/PSS/DF/etc)... (FPS locked at 25)Going to test the 2D version only... :( I'll love the VC :-) Andr

Anthony,It is the 2D only version. I do sign my posts. ;-)Mike,Yeah, I know I should have gone the AMD/ATI route, but now I have to make do with what I have. I think there must be a problem with something, because I don't get perfomance like this with any other addons.

Hmm, we share the same graphics card, although mine isn't clocked as high. I don't understand why there would be such a difference between this addon and the others...

Greg have only the event from switching VC > 2d etc... only 2d version is okay :-) had to read previous topics about the know memory problem with the VC :(Going to do some more tests, have great framerates with other add-ons...It looks like a memory leak issue :(Andr

Same here!, getting pretty poor FPS, i have NEVER! had this from any other aircraft product i have bought inc Ariane 737's, GA 737's PSS 320's, PIC767, PSS 747 and 777. Please help I get very strange fps..one minute it is good the other it is very bad!. This happens in the 2D panel and exterior model! ? Thanks for your help.

Same here! Good spec pc and low rates with external and 2D panel versions of aircraft. Pleased to know that it's not just me !!Jonathan

Same here.Takes seemingly ages to load on aircraft selection, even using the 2d only variant. Then performance rarely goes above 10-12 and typically is around 7-8 fps. Every other add-on I have works fine - all the PSS ac, PIC767, DF734, CS727, various GA payware models, even the Meridian. This one is a complete fps killer for me.Asus P4T533/P4-2.53/512Mb/GF4600It's a huge shame because when I do get reasonable fps, it flies wonderfully, and the systems modelling seems to be very thorough. I suspect I'll end up parking this until a 4.0 Gb box comes my way.Andy RallsEGTR

Forgot to add, it takes ages to load here as well, and performance is very slow for a few minutes after I shut down FS, presumeably adjusting it's memory management and freeing some memory up.

People, I dont go to the VC model, I get the 2D only and the SECOND i load it, it stays at 7 to 8 FPS. And man it takes long to load. So no, I dont use the VC one. I just get horrible frame rates, right from the get go. Marc

I love the jet. But have the same pestilence.2.4GHz 533 P4 / 1GB PC2700 333 DDR / GfFX5200 128MBGeForce has been notorious for drivers that kill my FPS on flight sim. I am going to roll back a couple versions to see if this alleviates the issue. My frames are bad inside and out on the aircraft....Good Day.http://www.clearedasfiled.com/images/simpics/cirrus.jpgwww.flightfactory-simulations.comHomepage at www.clearedasfiled.com!
