What happens when your not in flight?

How much cpu are you useing? Does it vary? What does your task manager say?

sounds like a problem in the cfg. file, might be worth looking at it. Sorry, thats all I got.

If you get ground environment pre you really should get land class as well to tell G.E. what to do. Then use the "sandwich" technique to combine the L.C. with ultimate terrain. The effect is stunning! Then set your visability to 30 miles to get rid of the ugly horizon, throw in some mesh, and thats as real as it gets my friend.

Wow, that is very usefull information, thank you very much. Its amazing that the slightest amount of heat can throw everything out of whack like that. Thanks again!

Thanks for your time ronzie, Im reading the correct core but I found a way to spread fs9 over both cores and figured out how to step up its priority over other processes to use more cpu. But the problem turns out to be heat! I guess my system was strategically shutting fs9 down and giving the power to idle process to cool off. I put a frozen ice pack next to the processor and the problem is gone. That and the other tweaks I accidently discovered and it runs smooth as silk. I feel like a redneck with the ice packs but hey, it works, and they stay frozen for hours. Thanks again for your help, rich

Does anybody know why fs9 suddenly drops cpu usage (judging by the task manager) when nothing else is running? The system idle process then picks up whats not being used, which is alot at times, then it goes back to normal. This kills my frame rates when it happens. Is there anything known to cause this and is there a simple fix? Thanks, rich

Does anybody know why fs9 would suddenly go from (about) 60% CPU in the task manager to 20% and the system idle process simultaneously go from 40% to 60% for no reason. As a result my frame rates go from between 70 - 150 down to 19 - 25. Nothing else is running. It seems like fs9 in voluntarily giving-up CPU power for no reason. The whole time its only using half my RAM (3 gigs). Then it will reverse again and I'll be back at 70 - 150 FPS. When I quit fs my system idle process of course goes right to 99. Can anybody tell me what is going on and maybe how to stop the madness???Thanks, rich
