>Keep it up untill we have no Flight Sims left. Oh yes we will>have 600 First Person Shooters and not one complaint. If you have to go through a song and a dance to get something to work still halfway then WHO WANTS a new one? If all you guys want is 6-20FPS and be happpy, I am sure there are some people that can put together something nice for you using flash animation.

OK.I HAVE to admit its working!AV6.5 running, water 1X, 50-75% sliders, 20% cars etc, dynamic activities on etc etc.Airbus 321 is best default aircraft I have seen since I started in Bruce Artwick days.FPS, I changed from holding at 23 (as I had it in Fs9) and released sim to find its own FPS. Now smooth.........similar stutters at say O'Hare 1000ft approach as Fs9, but flyable. (Scenery 75% and dynamic 100%)I am a senior. I therefore tend to leave well alone nowadays, as I have so many senior moments (60 a minute!) that I quickly forget what 'tweak' I did 2 nanoseconds ago. So, I just increase settings to where I feel I can control aircraft smoothly and see a pretty world.I have a 3 year old HP Pavilion, 2.4, 2MG RAM, GeForce 5700. Going by posts here this antique system should NOT be running the sim.However, I have a daft idea of what happens. Each boot of FSX (as Fs9 was) it gets a little better. XP 'learns' as you boot up stuff.Initially, on first boot up of FSX I was presented with barren landscape and a wee fence dictating perimiter.Now? I am easily where I was with Fs9, with only AS6 as add in. I believe I can take it up notches yet, and I will continue to do so.Tell you what though..chasing elephants around Kenyan landscape was one of the funniest FS experiences I have had..great fun! Missions are terrific.Just my experiences...FSX works!

Yes there has been a lot of disinformation about FSX. Some poster have lied about FSX even admited they did not have a copy of it yet were going on about how it runs. I back up what I say this is why FSX is still on my computer.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160171.jpgOh thats Seattle you know the airport where so many are saying you get less then 10fps out of. I'm lucky. Thats with AI traffic at 50%http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160172.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160173.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160174.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160175.jpgThis is New York I ran the Rez all the way up to 1792x1344 put autogen sliders to the max. No clouds and it still held to around 17fps. Thats tons more the FS9 would do if its autogen was kicked up to what FSX can do.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160176.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160177.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/160178.jpgNow let us that Have FSX working enjoy it. If you want and need help its here. If you can't get it to work for you FS9 is a great Sim. Not to many of us rush onto the FS9 forum and bash the crap out of that sim or its posters.

How to trick people into believing fsx gives good frame rates and no stutters:1. Take snapshots after pausing the sim.2. With varibale FRs take shots when the fr shoots up momentarily.3. When the discussion is about FRs in large airports post screens from spot view and/or say i fly GA and give shots of GA scenery. 4. Downright baloony saying it does not stutter. Afterall stutters are not caught on screen shots.5. If all these fail call everybody else liars!!6. Make virtues out of the silliest of thing. You see I married a donkey now even if she manages to operate the dish washers I get so excited about it that I proclaim to my neigbours what an extraordinary woman she is!!

Nonsense!I admit to having stutters, just as I have on Fs9, at heavily dense scenery.However, I am smooth as glass above say 1000ft?The point is that the stutters I am having on FSX, do NOT stop me flying and controlling the aircraft.In my rig with Fs9, I had active sky, put on Radar in cockpit and was reduced to 2ps! That is unflyable. So, easy answer, switch weather radar off, enjoy what I can, and that is Active Sky's delightful, stutter free clouds and weather.I will upgrtade to a dual processor, I will buy Vista, I will expect improvements on FSX, but until that day, I am getting happier and happier with FSX.

I'm not running A SINGLE TWEAK on my system (I re-instated original files) and the thing runs like a charm. I'm loving it, the improved graphics, the INCREDIBLE soaring realism, the improved flight realism, and the awesome missions!James

FS haters?The opposite of love in this case is not hate, it's indifference. Most of the people posting negative comments realy care about FS-X. When they stop caring and just return the game to the shop then its time to get worried.

There are no clouds in the fifth shot ... add two layers of clouds and lots of AI ;)The fact that you don't like to hear FSX being criticized speaks volumes :-roll----------------------------------------I'm not a beta tester, and I certainly don't wish to pay for the 'privilege'.
