Hello and I hope you guys can help.First I love as6, But ever since I got it my frame rate has drop greatly, and now fs2004 just keeps crashing.

HI, First install the latest patch http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho..._id=24915&page=How and when there is the crash? Alot of case are related 3rd party scenery addons, aircraft, installed recently etc. Also driver video cards, motherboard memory issue-Fly with default aircraft and test.-Uninstall your video cards driver and re-install the latest one.-Install the latest chipset driver for your motherboard.These can help below for performance and maybe ctd.Performance-The performance will depend on the metar, if the metar is dense, the performance will be lower.-In ASV option, you can limit the clouds layers to 3.-Closing ASG interface before start Fs2004 can help.-On some system using 64x64 32bits the performance are slower then 256x256 32bits.. I recommend to test 256x256 32bits first, then 512x512256x256 DXT. You have to test with your system.
