August 30, 201411 yr I consider myself pretty good with FS troubleshooting, but I'm at a loss with this one... I've been converting FSX airports to FS9 for some time now - and I'm now getting a horrific stutter with some of the converted scenery. The entire sim AND anything connected to it through FSUIPC will lock up for 1-5 seconds at a time... and sometimes, when it gets working again, it reloads the textures. Otherwise, even in a crowded area, framerates are high, up at my 30 FPS cap unwaveringly. I suspect that's due to a bad texture somewhere in my converted files BUT as far as I can tell, they're all DXT3 textures with mipmaps and DXTFixerX can't find any problems... does anyone else have any ideas?
September 1, 201411 yr Hi. The only thing that comes to mind is that DXTFixer only examines DXT3 and DXT5 format textures so its report of no problems is not necessarily the whole picture (no pun intended). If you do have a bad one in another format, say one you missed, it won't be found... Cheers, D
