Alpha India Group AFCAD's causing major stutters?

Featured Replies

Just wondering if anyone has been using Alpha India Group's custom AFCAD's for FSX airports? I installed them for both KMCI and KONT and noticed major stutters happening. I have the FPS Limiter set to 40fps and usually achieve around 25-35fps while on the ground at busy airports. But with Alpha India Group's AFCAD's at the airports where I use them, I sometimes see the fps dip down to 12-15 and then it quickly bounce back up to the normal 30fps or so. It causes major stutters. When I replace AIG's AFCAD with another custom AFCAD from the library here, the stutters completely disappear. Weird that it has happened at two separate airports. This is with My Traffic 5.2 Pro with Airline Density at 40 and GA only at 5.Does anyone else use AIG's AFCADs on a regular basis and noticed any stuttering?Many thanks for any and all replies.

I had their KONT AFCAD installed and cant say that I noticed any problem with stutters, but I didn't really care for it and uninstalled it.

I faced the same problem like yours. After I disable the AIG scenery layer, the stutter disappear completely.

Hit or miss for me, some AIG cause major stutters, some do not. I've found I need to test each AIG and decide whether to keep or delete.

Not sure it's the AFCADs causing the stutters, though I suppose it could be.I wonder whether when the AFCADs were installed, traffic bgls were installed too creating more traffic and hence the stutters?IAN
