Would you mind listing all your addons that makes the airport look so nice and busy?

Umm how do you get 60fps??

 

I thought it wasn't possible?

It is very possible when in external views or in the vc during flight. My pc will quite easily do this. So should yours. The problem lies when you sit back in the vc at Heathrow with big scenery. If he is getting 60 at that scenery he landed at in the vc I too would like to know how.

Is your CPU overclocked? Can you please share if there are any critical FSX.cfg optimization options?

Yeah but the problem with that is it would be unlocked frame rate to get 60 which means blurries. Anytime I try to lock my frame rate too high and it doesn't reach the lock, then things start getting blurry.

 

Maybe he flew at 1/4 rate and sped up the recording, it's a common technique :)

Think that most users are able to get least 60fps in the air but as you said things turn south when you one the ground at payware airports etc, depending on the size of the airport of course, but as you said heathrow like to know how he got 60 as well on the ground in vc.

No I have not overclocked it but have been meaning to for a while. I do have a number of tweaks in my cfg though I can't remember what they all are. One I remember that did seem to smooth things out for me was setting my affinity mask to 14. Don't know what cpu you have though as this is relative to number or cpu cores. There are lots of guides to do all these things on the web though and really it is trial and error.

I too have mine locked. At 30 in fact. Not because of blurries but because it makes things smoother. If I don't lock it though it will go much higher.

He is at Nice in the vid but still getting 60 in a vc there. Really would like to know if it was really the case.

I dont believe a word of it. He has either recorded it running at quarter speed, OR he may be using witchcraft.

 

You cannot run fsx that smoothly with addons, sceneries and pmdg 737ngx.

 

Fantastic video though, one of the best.

 

I just dont want people to spend a fortune on pc parts and hope for that performance. 60fps, at a major airport is not viable, and certainly not silky smooth as in the film.

 

Crikey his film is almost as dodgy as a speilberg "historical" blockbuster, lol :lol:

Does look super smooth though.

 

Damn it, wheres my wallet?

Why isn't the OP answering any of our questions?

This is a known video trick. FSX just won't run like that. Still looks nice tho.

You don't have to be on the ground at Heathrow with lots of AI etc, you can kiss 60FPS goodbye on approach over the city into KLAX or KJFK. If not, then i am doing something wrong with my rig (Specs below).

It's a really nice video, maybe he tried the old, half playback rate, but double the recorded video data.

Either way it's still an amazing video, well done!

Thanks Guys,

 

I rendered it with Fsrecorder at 60fps, edited the movie how I wanted it, added some dirty lense filters etc and then rendered it back out at 60fps.

FSX still amazes me after all these years of how fantastic it can look under the right conditions.

 

Youtube doesnt support 60fps and it also compresses video leaving slight jumps here and there (in some cases)

 

The Ivybridge I5 helps this alot as it renders it very quickly. I tried it using my old I7 920 to get 60fps and it would just bomb out and crash.

However My frames in game go between 25 to 30fps using Kostas guide etc when using the pmdg 737ngx which is more than acceptable for such a complex plane.

 

Anyway for budding video guys, I might do a tutorial or two on how I go about making my FSX videos at some point..

AH. Now i get the 60FPS part. Great video by the way.
