Afterburner does not limit FPS vP3Dv5

What program can I use to quickly change the FPS? Sim does not respond to MSi Afterburner

In jurisprudence, there is a principle - you look for the person who benefits.

You have at least three options...

1. Lock fps within P3D

2. Use nvida NCP to limit fps

3. Use RTSS to lock at X/2 refresh rate (which is what I use..)

For me, only the first method works. It is very inconvenient on the route. I usually cut the FPS from a second monitor when necessary and release my grip when the scene gets easier.

OK, changing enroute.... you are right, the first method is the way.

The other two are set before starting P3D, and are not changeable in flight.

To add, using the built in frame rate monitor of P3D will not work using the last 2 options.
It will in fact show the performance of "how" P3D is running.
Ex. P3D could be humming away internally at 45+ fps but when it is sent to the vcard it is then limited by NCP or RTSS, perhaps at your requested frame rate (30?) .

Use the built in frame rate monitor to monitor the health of the sim itself.
Use an external frame rate monitor to monitor the combination of both the sim health & any additional vcard settings thru NCP/RTSS.
