Hi *******,Thanks for that tool for helping us,I think i did something wrong. Because my old own cfg toll gives more performance than your toll advised.FSX gives about 26-30 fps in VC with my cfg, but advised cfg at least 6 fps less than mine.I have uploaded both cfg's and i will be appreciated if you look and comparse them.Regards.http://hotfile.com/dl/86281242/702fda4/Desktop.rar.html

'bump'

Good afternoon,I would like to mention that I just had a new PC built by my friendly local PC shop as my previous Dual Core croaked last week.The gist:ASUS P5P41TD MoboIntel Core2 Quad [email protected] (not yet OC'd....I'll get to that eventually).4Gb DDR3 RAM (3.5 actual as I still use WINXP Pro)Nvidia GeForce GT430 1GBSo nothing overly fancy but a nice upgrade . I reinstalled FSX Gold and commenced to tweaking once I had all the drivers updated etc.And I quickly got bogged down in jerking around with sliders, microstutters, gfx tearing and all kinds of horrible crap.I followed NickN's guide...and bogged down on nHancer as it does not support my drivers (and really didnt want to roll back as my other items work really nicely).I found this thread...tried the autotweaker....and holy cow man :biggrin:FSX now runs like butter and the only thing I had to do was manually turn off Transparency AA on my gfx card per the final suggestion after all the config changes! All those gfx anomalies disappeared and it looks as though your tweaker is squeezing out great performance.I want to say thank you for allowing me to go enjoy flying again as opposed to fighting settings. My wife also thanks you for putting a stop to two evenings worth of rather spicy language.Cheers Jesusp.s. Now I can move on and give VATSIM a try this weekend instead of fighting the .cfg file!

ToDo: 1) Get that CPU up to 3.5Ghz, or replace with Q6600 if you can.2) Replace that GT430 and then run Transparency AA using Multisample (not Supersample) - see Nvidia Inspector. On a modern card Transparency AA with 4x Multisampling should not have a big impact.And consider running 8xS AA using Nvidia Inspector3) Install Win7 ?Just a few thoughts....

Those are very kind words for the effort Bojote has placed in this thing. I hope he reads and enjoys them while I just quoted them because they express some very honest praises. Nice style there and sadly a somehow uncommon one these days. :Applause:I must admit, I'm just collecting praises to present them and therefor motivate ******* to work on cloud shadows and some AA independency there. He must not feel forced to work on those two items, so lets build some conspiracy and work very subtly on it.

Wow. Having spent the last four years spending more and more money trying (and failing, on the whole) to make FSX behave like any "normal" graphics-heavy game, I can honestly say that this tool did more, and in 3 minutes, no less, than pretty much anything else I have done (bar O/C my 870 to 4.2Ghz)I'll say it again: wow. A huge thank you to ******* for this. I was just thinking, after doing the FSX cfg shuffle for the 50th time this month, that somone (not me because I'm nowhere near clever enough) should write a tool a little like the Jscones MOD editor/installer that edited and optimised your FSX.cfg. *pow* there it is!Again, thank you so much ******* for freeing my brain to admire PNW, UTX and ORBX Australia at **over 24fps** in heavy airports, with all sliders pretty much maxed out AND REX too!Sorry, I'm gushing..Now, for that second GTX 295 mwahahap.s if you want to spend £50/$79 on something that will make more difference to your rig than anything else, buy a CoolIT ECO ALC water cooler in a box for your CPU and then clock it to the max. I get c. 45 celsius at _heaaavy_ load with my i7 870 O/C to 4.2 (from 2.9) and it took me 10 minutes to install it. It is nearly as awesome as *******' tool!

Hey *******, Just wanted to thank you for this tool. It really help me. I have tried your tweaks before but I did not have every thing right. This tool went and fixed and added what I needed and now everything is smooth and fixed a graphic problem I was having with some add on plane. Thanks again for all you have done the fight sim community!

Hi *******,Thank you very much for your excellent fsx.cfg analysis program. I have a relatively old system (Intel Q9550 2.8 ocd to 3.4GHz, Nvidia GTX 260-768MB, 4GB DDR2-800 RAM, single 24inch Samsung 245B monitor, Track IR, Vista Home Premium 64bit SP2, FSX Acceleration) and prefer flying low and slow to appreciate the excellent addon scenery packages, especially ORBX NA and european photoscenery (CHProX, Gen-X UK from Horizon/Playsims, France VFR etc) so fast frame rates are not of concern, but I do have problems with my old setup with blurries (scenery tiles near to the aircraft not swapping to high res fast enough) and stutters. I also use FPS Limiter set to 30, UTX, REX, JF TrafficX, UK2000 VFR airfields and many more. I have installed the downloaded fsx.cfg from your site but without lowering any of the recommended slider changes away from max, and also have set LOD_RADIUS back to 6.5 from the changed value of 4.5 just to try it (see below). Even without the full implementation of your changes I have noticed, so far, a marked improvement, with very little blurriness or stuttering on a long flight across Switzerland and shorter ones in coastal areas of the UK. The only small problem I noticed was that a small number of scenery tiles (mainly water) flashed black briefly as they swapped. Is this anything to do with SWAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT=2?I noticed also that the commentary was happy with my TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024. I had been concerned about this as the numbers recommended to others in this thread seem much lower. I had thought that FSX reset this itself as I had been inputting 4096 to accommodate the REX HD textures, but it had reverted to 1024. Or maybe REX was setting this value when installing new textures?As far as LOD_RADIUS is concerned I have for some time used 7.5 (with the necessary step to avoid changes in the graphics during the flight to stop FSX resetting this to 4.5) as it gives so much sharper textures in the middle distance. While investigating my graphics problems I had found that lowering it back to the default did not show any noticable improvement. Even with 6.5 and the new cfg I am getting marked improvements. I would be interested in your comments. Also is it possible to comment on the way FSX updates the scenery tiles in view? I have noticed that it does not concentrate on maintaining high resolution near to the aircraft but appears to start in the distance and move gradually row by row towards the plane. This doesn't appear to help it maintain the sharpest quality.Mervyn

Hi *******,First let me say a big thanks for all your work in helping the community get FSX working at peak performance.

you can probably see I've got just about all the sliders to the right. I run with AA and AF set by Nvidia Inspector to 8xS AA and 16x AF as I find the FSX default AA makes glass displays such as those in the Flight 1 Mustang look horrible. I am running FSX with all the FTX sceneries, as well as UTX/GE/REX, and UT2 traffic. I also run with the external frame rate limiter set to 30fps.My framerates are fine, even better since running your tool. I can maintain 30fps pretty much all the time, even when running FTX PNW with autogen set to max. The only problem I have is blurries. I'm having real problems getting the ground textures to keep up with the aircraft, even when flying a slow aircraft at 100 knots. When I take off from the airport all is well, but within a few minutes the ground textures become rather blurry and won't load fast at all.I'm really very impressed with your tweaking tool so far, I just hope you can find something to keep the dreaded blurries under control!Many thanks once again.Nick

Just wanted to add myself to the list of people saying thanks to ******* for all the excellent work he has done with FSX.I am using the Shader3 tool and the UsePools=0 and my FSX is running perfectly now.The only other things I have changed is that I am using Alacrity to close down all unnecessary processes and have created a RamDrive for the AI aircraft ( prevents stutters when AI loads )ThanksDave

*******, thank you for the effort of putting together this automated tool. It worked faster than I imagined and couldn't have been easier. I rarely do any tweaking so it worked fantastic for me. I simply swapped out .cfg files and am getting not only faster and smoother framerates, but the graphics are much better all round. Thank you again very much.Kevin

@Dave:That is an interesting observation... I'm aware of the 'pauses' when adding AI with UT2 and when approaching FSDT Airports, the reason is 'Simconnect' injecting the actual objects, but it seems, based on your comments the problem might be due to the actual 'textures' being injected and not the simconnect call. If that is the case, then an SSD drive *might* be a good idea afterall. I'll test this when I have some time.@AllThanks for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the tool

From my experience a SSD improves the stutter when loading AI but creating a RamDisk completely eliminated them.Details:-I have a total of 4Gig of ram and have created a 850Meg Ramdrive that I have all of my AI ( UK, German & French WOAI packages ) in. I have then modified my FSX.CFG to point to \Airplanes on my ramdrive instead of SimObjects\Airplanes. I also had to add to aircraft that I fly to this ramdisk ( lear45 ) so effectively the only aircraft I now have as flyable and AI are all on the ramdisk. As I only really fly around Europe, only having UK, German & French AI does not cause me a problem. Another thing to note is that by creating a RamDisk I am getting a read speed of approx 4772MB/S ( Read by HD Tune Pro ) My next step is to increase my Memory to 8Gig so I can create a bigger RamDisk :)

This ramdrive thing is interesting.How would I go about creating a ramdrive ?Thanks,Vic
