March 20, 200620 yr Did a flight today on Level D 767 from Dulles to Atlanta Hartsfield. Take off and en-route within the first 30-45 mins. was smooth as silk, but on approach to Atlanta, FPS started to drop and on final I was doing no better than 3 fps. I was also using Active Sky 6 and Radar contact 4. I've noticed this before with flights longer than ~45 mins to 1 hr. Anybody know what's going on? Any help would be much appreciated.My setup: Pentium 4 3.2 Ghz speed ; 2 Gig RAM ; NVidia FX Ultra 5950

March 20, 200620 yr I would guess that it is because of more traffic at Atlanta.I get about 3 FPS most times.
March 20, 200620 yr I've did the same flight from Dulles to Atlanta a couple of times last week. I had the same problem. I flew my PMDG 747 using FS9 Real Weather settings and RC4. I also have SimFlyer's KATL installed which I know doesn't help things. I also had Ground Environment, Ultimate Terrain, and BEV installed. The flight was almost impossible to handle upon landing at KATL due to low FPS and a crosswind was so violent it disengaged my AP near touchdown. I tried it again w/o weather and I had no problems whatsoever. My advice, fly to Atlanta only w/o weather loaded and see if that makes things better with your frames. At least you might be able to pinpoint the problem. Sorry I can't help more.Jim YoungMY Setup: P4 3.6GHz system with 2 gigs of DDR2 SDRAM; Radeon X800XT PCIe video card w/256 mb RAM.
March 20, 200620 yr I have similar problems that were solved by reducing autogen and clouds. Removing clouds completely made a huge difference. You can do this very fast by using the Clear All Weather button from the FSUIPC menu. Having said that it is probably not the course of action you would want to take if you like bad weather landings :) But try reducing autogen!
March 22, 200620 yr Hi Jim; I don't have any particular issue with AS, - in fact it's revolutionalized my "experience" - but I took note of your SU 4 as being available. . . but where???

March 22, 200620 yr If you have installed the addon scenery for Atlanta, that can also contribute to the slower fps. Adding parking spots in AFCAD, can also mean a lot more traffic is there.
