TPS way too low... I think

[matdark 0]

Hi everybody, After years of abstinence, I'm back to FSXI've read (and seen) a lot about tileproxy, and thus wanted to try it myself. I've read tutorials, advices, tweaks. Followed them all by the letter I believe. Tileproxy does work, files are stored on a dedicated drive (300 gb, SATA II, Cache: 8 Mb) and updated , BUT I'm stuck at 40 TPS, which is obviously way too low. I should be expecting 500 according to the manual. I believed I've tried everything, to no avail.Here is my setup:FSX+acceleration sur Windows 7 649mbits/s connectionIntel Core i3 2100 3,1ghz8gb RAM DDR3 PC3-10700NVIDIA GeForce GT 520 (Weak point, but I'm expecting a Radeon HD 6850 tommorow).I have to manually refresh the scenery every 2 min, can't I expect more from this setup? my

You might try fiddling with your level mapping, since trying to load hi-res tiles as far as the eye can see can result in reduced TPS rate. I have exactly the same situation with FS9 (was getting about 45 TPS), although static TPS (startup) is between 1000-1500+, which by rule of thumb should be around 500 TPS (50%) during active flying. By lowering my level mapping values, I was able to bump my active flying TPS to about 120-160. Still far from great and now I don't get edge to edge hi-res gorgeousness, but was an acceptable balance between increased TPS and visual quality. Also, the lower you lock your display framerate, the better. (Which is the opposite for FS9) FWIW! Good luck.
