May 28, 201016 yr Performance with this tweak has really made a huge difference, and I'm flying with FSX much more as a result, but it has introduced instability. Mostly just as I'm approaching an airport. Is there any tweaking that can be done to balance the performance/stability ratio a bit more?Any comments are appreciated. - Aaron

May 28, 201016 yr Great info, thanks *******!Do you mean this only?[Bufferpools]RejectThreshold=98304 No Prob,That will limit vertex data sent to the BufferPools UP TO 98304 bytes, the rest will go directly to the GPU (a la BP=0) so this is effectively an 'alternate' tweak to those having instability problems with BP=0
May 28, 201016 yr Commercial Member I get excellent results with BP=50000.Smooth like BP=0 but much stable on my system (I also have lockpus and artifacts with 0).Maybe worth the try?My system is just the opposite and is more stable with BP=0 (an AffinityMask=14).jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
May 29, 201016 yr Author Excellent, thank you gentlemen. I'll give it a try on my next outing. - Aaron
May 29, 201016 yr I get low framerates, but stable and smooth with bp=0 now that I lock the framerate in the sim. Still haven't found that perfect tweak to help me get 20fps everywhere, still in heavy weather with heavy traffic in a big city I am luck to get 10-15fps, but I guess I can live with it
July 29, 201015 yr Commercial Member Has anyone found the perfect result to reject buffer thresholds?does it still stand as above? Alex Ridge Join Fswakevortex here! YOUTUBE and FACEBOOK
July 29, 201015 yr Has anyone found the perfect result to reject buffer thresholds?does it still stand as above?Yes - I'm using it in my normal cfg file now. No artifacts, no flashing, no black screens, no hesitations, no pauses or lockups.

July 30, 201015 yr I assume that I have to add the [bufferpools] section to the fsx.cfg file? There isn't one in my current config file. I will try that RejectThreshold=98304 statement, because adding BP=0 results in screen artefacts.Just to be clear, when you state...."That will limit vertex data sent to the BufferPools UP TO 98304 bytes, the rest will go directly to the GPU".....are you saying that the vertex data is normally processed by the CPU, but this tweak transfers some of the load to the GPU?

July 30, 201015 yr I'm getting excellent performance with BP=0, TextureMaxLoad=30, fps unlimited. External limiter at 40 helps only when flying in areas where the fps go through the roof. What I get is slight scenery drag. Not a big deal. The external limiter fixes the issue. MSFS
October 12, 201114 yr Hello guys,I receive with UsePools set to 0 a very smooth FSX, but I got white flashing artefacts and black vertical appearing and disappearing stripes. What is the solution for this kind of problems? Any tweaks or suggestions are highly appreciated! Thx a lot. Kind regards, Tommy Tom Romero Sanchez Finca La Costa / Mallorca www.fincalacosta.com
