December 19, 201015 yr Trying to use the external frame rate limiter listed in *******'s automated tweaking utility but every time try to run it it opens the DOS window for a micro second and closes. How do i keep it open and know that it's working inside FSX?Also I see where in the read me F11 and F12 are used to adjust the FPS value if using this key inside FSX for view control will it be fluctuating the FPS limiter too? I have EZCA and Track IR so I don't need to use F11 or F12 but I would still like to know.Thanks in Advance,Robert RE Thomason Jr.
December 19, 201015 yr The .BAT file must be placed inside the same folder as the FPS Limiter files. Then you can just send a shortcut to your desktop.
December 19, 201015 yr Moderator yes, using the F11 & F12 keys in FSX wll also change the FPS.Vic RIG#1 - I9 14900K MSI Pro z790 RTX 5070Ti 40" 4K Monitor 3840x2160
December 19, 201015 yr Not to hijack but my FPS Limiter appears to run correctly but does not limit the FPS? DOS window appears, I get the green FPS=30 over the FSX screen at start-up but no limit I can tell.ThanksRick S.
December 19, 201015 yr Author The .BAT file must be placed inside the same folder as the FPS Limiter files. Then you can just send a shortcut to your desktop.What .bat file? As far as I can tell the link on *******'s tweak utility had me download a .rar file which when extracted contained a readme.txt file 4ea .dll's 1 .jar file and the .exeI'm clearly missing something here, thanks for the help.

December 19, 201015 yr Double click the java file (.jar), and it will run a tiny application where you select the fsx.exe file... | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
December 19, 201015 yr Author Ok created the .bat and shortcut so I am assuming you use this .bat shortcut to launch FSX in order to have the limiter take effect? Seems weird not clicking the .exe to execute the program? RE Thomason Jr.

I use the FPS Limiter without using Java.I simply opened Notepad and entered the following text:start C:\"Users\Matt\Documents\FPS_Limiter_0.2\"FPS_Limiter.exe /r:D3D9 /f:30 /x:ON /l:OFF "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\fsx.exeObviously, each file path has to be edited for your own system. The f:30 part is the the frame limit.I then saved it with the .BAT extension, placed the file in the FPS Limiter folder, created a shortcut to it and it worked.

Seems weird not clicking the .exe to execute the program?Yep you use the .bat file instead. That's the whole point.... the bat file is similar to an exe file. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
