March 15, 201115 yr I just tried this for grins. I set it to DX10 mode and the problem went away. It's not a solution though because as soon as I move the undocked panel to another monitor the panel becomes just a blue/white FS logo, plus with all my add-ons DX10 Preview messes so much up. Interesting nonetheless.Are you, by any chance, running with vertical sync forced on in the driver (or in a drive utility like nvidiainspector/ATITools)? That could cause your problem--in windowed mode there is no double-buffering of the video frame buffer, which can cause big hits to the frame rate.CheersBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case

March 15, 201115 yr cant seem to find any options for vert sync in the game, driver or catalystIn catalyst it's called "Wait for Vertical Refresh"In FSX, there are a couple of params in the display section of fsx.cfg, one for full-screen, one for windowed mode (ForceFullScreenVSync=1 or ForceWindowedVSync=1)CheersBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
May 5, 201115 yr Noah,Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I am having the same issue (in FS9 though).ThanksJon
May 7, 201115 yr ... guys, I had the same issues. got tired from going around and around, those issues (and many others) are (unfortunately) much more complicated then we think they are.so,here is the tip.Get in touch with Michael from www.fs-gs.come-mail [email protected] listen to himCheersYair
May 7, 201115 yr So after reading a few things posted above, I tried running FSX without the FPS limiter and bingo, the undocked windows frame rate drop disappeared. One window undocked (GPS) and moved to monitor #2 had no frame rate loss, two (TCAS radar) caused a slight loss in performance and three windows undocked caused another slight loss. FSX was still smooth however, so it was quite usable. I'd like to thank everyone for sharing their ideas; certainly helped me to solve this minor issue! i7-9700K, MSI Z370, PNY 4070 Super, GTX 750Ti, 32GB GSkill, 43" curved Samsung, 32" BenQ, 11" LED, RealSImGear GTN750, Win10, P3DV5.4/P3DV6 and MSFS, several GoFlight modules, Saitek radio, Brunner CLS-E NG Yoke, Virtual Fly TQ6.
June 25, 201114 yr My problem was the framelimiter i got rid of it and theres no difference when i undock and drag a panel over to my 2nd monitor glad i found this topic thru google i thought it was my GTX590 thx for the help gentlemen John C
June 25, 201114 yr Like Andy said...With FPS Limiter set it to the double FPS ie. if You ran 30 FPS then set it to 60.Only problem is, that if I have no undocked windows on the 2. monitor then FPS on the main monitor is allowed to go up to 60.With panels undocked on 2. monitor FPS will be max at 30 as set.The good thing is that eventual big FPS spikes are caught and kept down by the FPS limiter - givinhg a smoother performance.Finn System: i7-10700K, 32GB RAM, RTX4070 12GB, 1 x 1TB SSD, 2 x 2TB SSD, 1x 2TB HDD, Win10 64bit Home, Meta Quest 3
February 19, 201610 yr Old topic but I'm wondering how people get on with this? If I open up 2 viewports inside the main view, frame rate tanks, is this normal? To avoid distortion, I see people running 3 monitors with 3 viewports. Center with VC view, then 2 other views showing 2 additional viewports (left and right VC window views). How are they able to maintain enough frame rate?
