New Jersey is one of those states I pass alot when I fly my fs9.

 

Normally I got a frame rate of 35 (locked at 35) and when Im at busy airports I got around 20. Perfect for me. The airports I have are from Flightbeam and Fsdreamteam. Over the years I collected alot of them. (JFK, DFW, SFO, LAS, LAX and so on)

 

There is an issue I have lately. When I come across New Jersey my frame rate drops like crazy. It goes to 5 fps and even lower and yesterday my FS did a CTD above Trenton.

 

What is going on? When I shut down the AI there is no problem. Could there be an issue with US Airways near or at KPHL?

 

KPHL I use is from Sunskyjet.

 

Who else has this problem? Do you have any suggestions?

 

I use an AI-combination of WoAI and I customized a lot of my traffic with AIFP.

 

 

The NE corridor NY,NJ, PA in any sim is the hardest on any system to fly in.

Lower your settings especially AI traffic.

Happens in real life, too.

LOL!

 

I was expecting that last answer. :-) I have been in the US only once and made a demestic flight from Atlanta to LaGuardia with a CRJ7. Above New Jersey we had some terrible turbulence, never experienced that. Whats wrong with NJ?

 

But serious, the traffic must really be the issue. Is it a common problem?

Happens in real life, too.

I live in this area.....this comment just made me laugh pretty hard.....

 

Hi meesterlijk,

 

There is a ton of commercial activity into Philadelphia and the various New York airports. Not too bad down low for GA, though.

 

In the sim, I can see how some detailed airports + airline traffic could drag performance down. There are some peak hours, even in Philadelphia, where it gets really busy. I would think LAX would slow things down, too, but I am not sure as I don't have any add-on airports.

disable your add-on scenery and ai and see if the issue goes away.  Enable them one at a time and see which causes the issue.  Yes, NY/NJ is very demanding but Trenton is closer to Philly than NY and you should not drop to 5fps so I would look at add-ons in that area...  I get 60FPS in NJ, locked at 60FPS due to VSync and even get 35FPS at Simflyers KEWR with 100%AI

I'm trying to find the solution here. I first thought there was a wrong aircraft within the JetBlue package so I reinstalled that one. Without difference.

 

I got rid of double Afcad files. Nothing.

 

I also got rid of KPHL to see if the problem comes from this scenery. Also at default PHL I got 4 fps. There must be something wrong with the US airways package.

And at default KPHL without US Air?

I found the problem.

 

I removed Kphl and both the US air packages. (Usair and express)

 

Without them the frames went up to 35 (locked)

 

Then I reinstalled Usair and the frames stayed at 35.

 

Now I reinstalled Usair express and down they go.

 

So: if you ever have plans to fly with UsAir express at my rig I'm sorry. This airline does not fly anymore.
