Hello All - I was wondering if anyone had trouble getting fps limiter to work... I have downloaded the program and pointed the GUI.Jar to my FSX Executable.. When I now GUI.Jar. the FSX loads normal and I don't see the limiter GUI. JAVA is installed and working and I have no UAC issues. Not sure I installed in correctly but I did follow instructions.I downloaded and extracted with 7 Zip to a folder called fps in MY Documents. > I then double click the .jar GUI file and chose the FSX.EXE and it opened straight to FSX but I didnt see the limiter GUI, it just runs normal FSX. Any help is greatly appreciated.

When you clicked "Create Bat" it should have created a file called "fsx.limited.bat". Use it to start fsx with limited FPS.If it didn't, check there's no garlic around*crickets*...or try running the GUI with admin rightsWelcome to Avsim Kevin smile.png

Honestly I never got to a point to save a .bat file. Like I said when I click the GUI. Jar for the first time I opened in the FSX Executable, it then opened a normal fsx screen, didn't see any FPS GUI at all.I have no UAC Controls enabled and I only have one account on the system and thats administrator. Sorry for the slow response.BTW Thank you for the welcome.. Been a FS guy for years as well as a licensed pilot. Just this year I started really customizing my system. I currently run a ASUS Motherboard with a Phenom x6 processor overclocked to 4ghz six cores. 32Gb of ram and windows 7 64 bit..Should I see FPS Limiter in my Installed programs? I don't see it in my program files?

No, it doesn't install to your PC, when you run the "FPS_Limiter_GUI.jar" you just browse for the fsx executable and then click "Create Bat". A few seconds later you should have a file called "fsx.limiter.bat" in the same folder the "FPS_Limiter_GUI.jar" sits.There is no GUI for the limiter then. You just double-click the newly created "fsx.limiter.bat" and it will (should) start FSX limited to 30FPS or whatever you selected in the GUI when you created the bat file.If you can't get the GUI to create the bat file for you, you can always create it manually. This is for the default fsx location:
start "" /min FPS_Limiter.exe /r:D3d9 /f:30 /x:OFF /l:OFF "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Simulator Xfsx.exe

Stephen - Appreciate the help.. Turns out, in Microsofts brilliant way, they turned off the ability to automatically associate .jar files with the Java application. XP had something called file types that you could manually associate Java files, however Microsoft decided to rid 7 of a useful tool. thanks again.. Its working now..

Stephen - Appreciate the help..
I think you mean Dario. All I did was laugh at his vampire joke! Glad you got it worked out though.Kind regards,
