I'd appreciate if the AS6 support team could confirm for me whether I'm running everything the right way or not. The reason I ask this is because despite having a cloud resolution of 256x256 and having DXT3 cloud textures, I find that the clouds look like 32Bit cloud textures and the framerates aren't great. >I start up AS6>Once loaded I start up ASG and find that my quick select theme is already selected so I click on 'Send to FS'>I close ASG>I enter a flightplan>I start up FS and do flightIs everything I'm doing right there? Also I don't have anything set for auto-submit on the options so that can't be the culprit for this reduction in fps. I'm unsure of whether this fps reduction is due to the installation of SU2 like a lot of people are having problems with or whether its to do with the way I'm starting everything up.Hope you can help...Cheers,James

Hi,Startup is fine.Go to your ASG options screen and see if the proper resolution and texture format is choosen. Also you can post your ASG.ini file and I can take a look!Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6...development.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-proud.jpg

Thanks for your reply Jim, I've double-checked that my textures are set to DXT3 and the resolution is at 256x256. My ASG ini file is below:[ASG_Saved_Configuration_Values]FS9Folder = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesFlight Simulator 9"CloudResolution = "256"DXT3Option = "True"KeepASGRunning = "False"CloseASGwithAS = "True"CurrentTheme = "Personal"I don't get how the clouds in my fs are as detailed as they are despite me having a resolution of 256x256 and DXT3 textures.

Hi,Try this:Close FS04.Submit a set of textures to FS04.Open the FS04/Texture folder and find the cumulus1.bmp file.Right mouse click on it and go to Properties and see if the modified date/time is from when you did the submit.Also, 256 clouds are still pretty detailed even with DXT enabled. Drop to 128 and see if you notice a difference under the same weather conditions.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6...development.jpg http://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-proud.jpg
