Formulas for understanding frame rates

Featured Replies

After many years of flightsim enjoyment, I have managed to create some maths formula theories on framerates. This may help those that who are new to flightsims, or those that have just never understood framerate issues.Brand new flightsim + Old computer = Low FramerateBrand new flightsim + Recent computer + Sliders Maxed = Low FramerateBrand new flightsim + Recent computer + Sliders Lowered = Decent FramerateBrand new flightsim + time + New computer = High Frame rates(Brand new flightsim + Old computer = High Framerates ) = Old flightsim disguised as New flightsim with only cosmetic changesBrand new flightsim + Lots of forum Frame Rate complaints = Top class state of the art Flightsim that

Brand new flightsim + Shift "Z" key active = low frame rates. Solution: stop using frame rates as a guage and set up game until it flies smoothly :)

You are a sure in for the Fields Medal!!RH

>>>>>Demo for new FS + lots of new features I have always wanted in>FS = happy camper>>>>Regards, Michael>KDFW>>http://www.calvirair.com/mcpics/ambanner.jpgMichael Michael,It's supposed to be:Lots of new features I have always wanted in Fs + Demo for new FS = Happy Camper :-)or how about this one:Developer trying to get more sales before release of FSX + showcasing new product with high framrates in FS9 and low framerates in FSX = Not buying from that developer again.
