April 25, 201214 yr First of all im new on this forum. And got lost in all the subsections and just hope I put this question in the right subsection. I used a FPS limiter for FSX. But not the famous convential FPS limiter 02. I dont use a program. I once found a setting around the internet to limit my frames per second by editing some lines on a fsx file. A CFG file I guess. But I dont know what file it was and the name of the setting and theirfore cant change it from my earlier setting. Somehow by installing addons the setting got overwritten. And now its set at 10frames per second all the time. This is bad and very unplayable. It was originally setted at 30 frames per second. I really hope one or more users on this site know what setting im reffering to so they can tell me so i can change it back to 30frames. Thanks for your precious time.
April 25, 201214 yr Hello and welcome to the AVSIM forums! This should be fairly easy: enter FSX configuration and set it there. FSX main window, Settings, Customize, Graphics Tab, set Target Frame Rate to 30 and OK it. Done. I'll move this into FSX, as this concerns FSX, and not W7.
April 25, 201214 yr Author Thanks. But it was probably a bug in the first place. I restarted FSX and then the problem was solved. Under FSX configuration the frames per second is set to "unlimited" setting it to 30fps doesnt change the fps limiter. I changed some configuration file of fsx overriding the regular frame rate setting. I would still like to remember which file it was that i've changed. I found the procedure on the internet and i'll keep looking where i've initially founded the method to change it back. If anybody else can remind me in the meantime i'd really appreciate it. Still thanks for your effort to help me. Nice FSX machine btw :Hypnotized:
April 25, 201214 yr FSX configuration the frames per second is set to "unlimited" If that is the fact, then you have some external limiter limiting. There are couple of possibilities, but if you fixed it, I won't be going into detail now. I changed some configuration file of fsx overriding the regular frame rate setting. I have no idea what you're talking about. You have to be more specific! Nice FSX machine btw :Hypnotized: Thanks. See my guide in my sig for "how to build an FSX machine".
April 26, 201214 yr AO Did you by any chance have a desktop shortcut to FSX. If I remember correctly there used to be a method of adding a command line to the shortcut which would then be operational every time you clicked it. I forget the exact syntax but if you have a shortcut for FSX just check that it does not have any mention to limiting frames. It will be something like this in the target line: \FSX.exe" -fps x (where x = the max number of frames per second). (right click on the shortcut and choose "properties" then look at the target line as above. Disregard if you do not have a shortcut. pH
