Hi all, I'm having an issue of late with what seems to be Scotland scenery. If ever I start FS9 at EGPH or other locations in Scotland it takes for ever to load, then I get frame rates of 1-2, regardless of the aircraft.If I fly into EGPH for example from EGKK FS9 drops in FPS to 1-2 then CTD occurs, again regardless of aircraft.It seemed to start when I first installed the freeware EGPH scenery, so I removed it. I also had the Scotflight scenery installed, then removed it also. Neither seems to have fixed the problem.Any suggestions? I am running XP pro and FS9.1 patch.

There was a problem with the Scotflight Scenery a while back with one of the textures for Rosyth, I believe. See the Scotflight forum( http://www.visualflight.co.uk/scotflight/ ) for more info and the fix.The other thing that occurs to me is a duplicate AFCAD file for EGPH. Look for that in the add-on Scenery folder of FS9 manually or there is a free utility called ScanAFD available here http://www.nwlink.com/~erogwhich works very nicely and can be very helpful.Hope that helps,Ed GreenKCLThttp://www.panelshop.com/DEV.jpg

Thanks Ed,I ended up deleting all add- on scenery entries in my scenery.cfg (after creating a back up of course!) and she runs okay. So I will now try your suggested AFD tool (thanks) and reinstall the old scenery.cfg with some mods.I'll check out the Rosyth patch.

Go to the ScotFlight site, they have come out with a patch to resolve this problem and it works fineNigelVancouver
