strange problem with tutorial

Featured Replies

Hey all,

 

When I fly the tutorial into EHAM from EGKK I get extreme FPS lag as I finish crossing the north sea and am looking out over a region of rivers. I usually get a consistent 30fps, dropping to 26 a busy airports, but this brings me down to 13....This doesnt happen anywhere else!

 

Any ideas?

Are you using REX wave animation textures? Some of them are known to cause huge FPS issues like that. I use the one called "Use This!" and it doesn't seem to have that problem.

Hi Tabs, yes I am! I'll try that :)

 

Sorry Tabs, how do I change that? I have the rex theme bit open but cannot locate animations for waves!

Use This is a good wave theme. To change it, click on Theme Creation at the top, then on Wave Animation.

Hey guys, still having this problem. It's when I fly in from the sea paralel with the airport, when looking toward the airport I get severe fps slow down. Most likely it's an fsx quirk however whilst learning I usually always fly by hand or with standard autopilot. Never with the fmc/ advanced routes and calculations. Any chance the descent calculations are causing the lag? I can't test elsewhere as I'm not yet good enough with the fmc lol....not a major issue but would love to understand what causes this.

 

Thanks

Change the water setting in FSX to one of the 1.x options (this completely disables all that wave animation stuff) and see if it goes away - if it does, you'll know it's that.

 

The descent calculations aren't causing it - everyone who flies that flight gets the same calculations... I definitely don't see it myself.

And sorry, my cpu is actually 3.8ghz and I have mytraffic 2010 at 3 percent so I see other planes but aren't overloaded with them! Thanks

 

Wow fast reply tabs - I am relieved it isn't the descent calculations - Schipol I can live without, NGX I can't! :)

Yup it was the water! Down to 1xhigh and it's all smooth. A shame it doesn't look great now!
