2004 New to me, need some tips!

[Guest]

This is the first flight sim I've tried and need some advice. Would, like everyone else to have the maximum graphics without frame hits that are to bad. How do you see what fps you are getting? I've owned other games and know some of you experts have best settings and tweaks that will help me out. If you would give a newbie some advice I would greatly appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!P4 300 mhz 512 DDR Ti4600

Hi, Press Shift+z until you see your FPS. From the majority of posts here, it's clear that the weather will mostly determine your FPS. So hit all the sliders to max, then adjust your weather settings in your display dialog to get your desirable FPS.
