I just added ''WATER_EFFECTS=3'' in [TERRAIN] section and I have water quality on 1x config like in FSX, in same situation passed from 16FPS on FSX to 19-20. Those FPS are very welcome!! Daniel

I was thinking the same, no great improvements on FPS with old cpu's. Anyway if I can decreased water graphics in theory It should work much better, but a 20% to say something of low FPS aren't so much FPS. I think I'wont return the game, 16FPS of prepar3d looks much more smoother than 16FPS on FSX. BTW, bf=0 and affinitymask doesn't give me much better performance maybe 2-3 FPS more... weird... Daniel

Hi Guys I bought prepar3d yesterday and simulation it's much better than FSX for sure. However the performance is the same for not saying worst in some cases (tested with PMDG in Mallorca X) I really was expecting something else. While flying I've seen that water textures at minumum settings looks like in FSX at 2.0 and I have it on 1.0 high on FSX, I think if I could decrease quality of water on prepar3d then I'll get better performance than on FSX, anyone knows how to modify it on .cfg?? any help is welcome! My cpu is a Q9300 at 2.88GHZ if anyone is wondering. Daniel
