What about not having any pre-rendered frames in the nVidia Control Panel. It is set at 3 at the moment, the recommended setting.

I tried all possible settings there: didn't help. I have PhysX turned off: I don't need it. Afaik. BTW When the stutters get bad at that heavy airport, maybe those are normal stutters...? There are two kind of stutters: normal stutters that are due to too high settings or too heavy scenery (or anything that makes the system perform worse) and microstutters which are due to vsync. Setting ingame settings higher of lower will help with the normal stutters: as we all know by now nothing will solve the microstutters right now.When I fly with high settings, I always have microstutters. When I get close to heavy scenery normal stutters are added to the pack, which can be easily checked by looking at the fps on screen. Don't mistake the two!

turn it off eh, maybe it will help. I use it a lot in Battlefield with all the papers that fly around.

The BP looks like does not have any effect on my system.

What do you mean it has no effect? Set BP=0 and watch FPS go up by about 10fps. You need to use an airport like KLGA and gray and rainy weather. You will see much higher frame rates with a low BP setting (bellow 30000.)

My rig is not that powerful but I manage to pull around 15 -20 fps @klga in fair weather on ground, I will try it. I have kept the poolsize to 490M as I have a 1GB gfx card BP setting (bellow 30000.) could you explain this please.

I'd like to know about this BP=0 tweak too please.

Just set BP=30000 and you will see higher fps, especially in bad weather. Trust me.

Di, It has something got to do with the video memory http://www.flightsim...showtopic=92583 check here.

Which section is this under in the FSX.cfg? Because this is where my system suffers most. Heavy clouds + dense scenery.

Checking now, but you guys have a mammoth of a machine compared to mine , Hey but I don't have the NGX I only the Baron for training.

Hardly. Dual core laptop. Only benefit is that it's a sandy bridge.

[bufferPools]PoolSize=30000 RejectThreshold=131072UsePools=0 Put it anywhere in fsx.cfg or right at the top or bottom

Okay. Thankyou!

DJ, I am getting 11 fps in bad weather with the Carenado Baron 58, but my autogen and scenery complexity are on 100% and this is what I have [bufferPools]PoolSize=30000 (suggested change)RejectThreshold=131072UsePools=0

Okay. Thankyou!

You may need to switch off Userpools or enable it , all depends on the system.

You're trying to run FSX, with sliders to the right, on an AMD 3.8ghz and an ATI card. That will reduce performance. The BP=0 tweak works best on modern GPU, like the gtx 570 or 580. I don't use BP=0 with my gtx 480. BTW, just use this setting: [bufferPools]PoolSize=30000

I use a GT525M (laptop) so what should my [bufferpools] section contain?
