Add-on Scenery Performance

[Connor Anderson 0]

Hello Avsim,

 

I was wondering if there is a way to tweak individaul scenery locations. When at an airport like KHOU, in the NGX with freeware add-on scenery I downloaded from the file library, I recieve 50-70 fps. When I get to airport like KMDW with the Fly Tampa package installed I get around 25fps in the NGX. I realize there are more scenery files to load at higher reolutions ect, but I was hoping I could tweak just that induvidual area, and not the whole world. If anyone has some good tips to tuning/tweaking add-on scenery please let me know!

 

Thanks in advance.

It's hard to give advice on scenery without any details, such as the quantity and type of objects, the size of textures, and other elements present (i.e., dynamic objects, etc.) In addition, you provide no information of your hardware or system settings, other programs running in the background, and so on.

 

Unless you want to start taking files apart and re-doing them, the best advice (the only advice?) is to lower graphical settings. This will always give results.

 

Best regards.
