How do you display FPS in MFS ?

Recommended Posts

I am sure its simply but I have not been able to figure out how to display the framerate.

Is there a better way, overlay with Nvidia Experience so you can also see GPU load?

I use EVGA Precision X1 it has an overlay that allows you to see GPU clock speeds, VRAM use, temp., and FPS.

I use MSI Afterburner with RIVA Tuner as recommended by Squirrel in this tutorial video at (18:30).

To set up MSFS I used FRAPS Mark.

Once set up, the only thing I noticed was you can VS to set a locked FPS 30 in my case, but read it's not a good idea. So within NV Control panel I set MSFS to 30 FPS and tested it again with FRAPS it works really well. I also use TrackIR

Now I have no need to see it, as one of my last tests was London at night, City to EGLL Setting "High End" plus texture and clouds set to Ultra, I only use GA's but FPS over the Orbx addon for London FPS were sill well in the 30's.

OK thanks everyone, I tried developer mode to start.....my FPS seems to be locked at 25 regardless of settings so I suspect that is not correct.  I will try the MSI Afterburner method next.

You may have switched it off in the Control Panel / Games.

Kind regards, Michael

Likely a permissions issue.  Click on FPS and it should ask about granting permission.  Then reboot.

If it is from MS Game bar, a lot of people may have that turned off, or never even installed it in the first place (thinking of people who buy off Steam).  I'm pretty sure I turned off all that Game bar stuff right away.  I think that's the thing that will allow you to record video and such, I'm sure many people who don't use it have it turned off for performance reasons.
