Hey guys. I just got the Thai Creation VABB but there's apparently an elevation issue on the runway where the aircraft just sinks to the ground. Anyone has this problem and fixed it? Would appreciate your help please. I am using FTX Global also and i have tried searching and got the fix file which contains 2 new bgl but still the problem wont go away. Tried rearranging the order of VABB and VAJJ also but still same problem. Please help. Thanks Swadeep

Correct. FSX is not installed in program files folder x86. It's on it's on folder on another drive with just FSX and add ons on those drive.

It was installed in C/Program Files X86......FSX is installed on another drive. Cheers Swadeep

I have checked the CFG and there is nothing left over there. I only see the camera definition for the default views that came with PMDG. This is after uninstalling and reinstalling PMDG also. I don't see any labelled with EZDOK at all. What should i do next? Thanks Swadeep

yes i did that. i followed the manual. i restored to default first then uninstalled the program. I will check the CFG again also. However should it work then what could cause the error then? Or maybe there's something to be done on CFG to make it work? Will report back. Thanks Swadeep

Thanks for your reply! Much appreciated. I have done as you said but the problem still persist. However this time the only improvement is that the sim loads too 100% and the cockpit appears for around few seconds only to CTD again. Still the same error module PMDG_737NGX.DLL. I am clueless why this is happening. I am sure Ezdok installation must have done something to it but can't figure out what exactly. Thanks Swadeep

Any help at all please?

Hey guys. I have been using PMDG 737NGX and 777 fine with no problem at all. Recently I have installed Ezdok 1.17 and made cameras set for 777 and did 2 flights with it. All was well. However I wanted to do a NGX flight and I selected that aircraft in menu fine. When I click fly now it loads to about 4-5 percent and then FSX just CTD. I looked into the error file and the fault module was PMDG737NGX.DLL I was wondering if anyone could help please? It must be down to Ezdok ad it was all fine before but then again I can still make flights with 777 but NGX just stopped working since installation of Ezdok. I tried uninstalling PMDG 737NGX already and reinstalled it again but still the same problem. Would appreciate your help please. Thanks Swadeep

Thanks everyone for the tips and suggestions! I will try as suggested and see how it goes! Thanks a million! Swadeep

Hi guys. I've always wanted to get your opinions on my FSX settings and I would like to know if my computer is under performing. I have a feeling it should do a bit better than it does but then again I still find myself comparing it to FS9 sometimes and that may be the reason why I am not happy. But i know i shouldn't be so if you guys can help me i would appreciate it. Just need your opinions and/or tips. Please bear with me while i post a lot of specs and tweaks below. THE QUESTION: I would like to have 30 fps and I am happy with that smoothness. Up in the air no problem i get it pretty much all the time. It's on the ground and and at busy payware airport i guess: here are some scenarios: based on NGX and T777 by PMDG 1. Default EDDL that day gave me around 20fps on ground. Maybe traffic or weather? Should not be really. 2. FSDT KDFW ground only around average 15-20 fps. 3. AEROSOFT LOWI - average around 20ish on ground. Good weather also 4. VTBS payware also around low 20s. So basically is this normal or not? If not is there something else i can do with it?

What fps do you get say in airports like fsdt kdfw and do u set fps limit on fsx? Or set it to unlimited in fsx and limit in inspector and how much? Thanks Swadeep

I have tried everything that you all suggested but doesn't help at all. Been doing more search and apparently it affects other games too. I decided to roll back to previous driver (327.23) and all is well again now. So I will stay on this driver for now and maybe wait for a while. Thanks Swadeep

Will try as you suggested when I get home and will report back. Thanks Swadeep

Will try as you suggested. So are you saying removing highmemfix and bufferpool should help me gain more frames? Everywhere it says these tweaks must be used. I never had tearing problem with half refresh rate until this driver. Thanks Swadeep

i did not overclock my gfx card at all. maybe the card i got was already overclocked so that's why it said superclocked edition? would you mind to share to share pics of your nvidia inspector settings please? will try with your suggestion and report back i did uninstall drivers already and installed inspector and drivers again also but same problem. it's like the tear is mainly visible if i pan the views fast enough. there must be something wrong. Anyone else have any suggestions? Thanks all Swadeep I think he's having the same problem as me also. POST #10 http://forum.avsim.net/topic/423318-nvidia-inspector-settings/?p=2836276 Cheers Swadeep

YES! i know what you mean! i am getting the same thing. In fact i mentioned it in another topic. http://forum.avsim.net/topic/424703-latest-33165-driver-and-vsync/ Please let me know if you find a fix! Some said in that thread to add disable preload in MAIN FSX. Cheers Swadeep

Hi guys. I just recently updated my nvidia driver to 331.65. I notice that I can still see tear now when panning around cockpit. My nvidia inspector still the same setting which is 1/2 refresh rate. Any ideas? I did however changed 8XSq to 8XS and 2SSGD to 4X Super sampling. I am trying everything again to get the best performance out of FSX. Here's my spec for what it's worth. Please feel free to suggest FSX setting and tweaks. I do have the basic HIGHMEMFIX USEPOOL (=0) AFFINITY 14 (HT OFF) TBM=40.

Hi guys. I have been noticing that sometimes while at cruise I would get a random fps drop by over 10fps and it keeps fluctuating highly resulting in it not being smooth. After quite a while the fps would return to stable lock again at 30fps. (fsx set to unlimited and nvidia inspector fps set to 30). This happens especially in VC. i tried changing views to external and wing views and all is fine. Sometimes it wouldn't be fine too but mainly in happens in VC. Anyone else getting this? I noticed also every time when landing the 777 the fps drops a lot. I don't know why to be honest. I hope patch will some how help with performance. I believe i have quite a decent pc but this fsx thing is getting too much. My PC specs: (if anyone using similar pc to mine can you please show me your fsx settings so i can try set the same and compare...thanks) Core i7 3770k overclocked 4.5GHZ 8GB Ram GTX 680 Asus P8Z77-V Pro motherboard I did everything already according to pmdg manual and even followed fsx tweak by frooglesim and http://www.venetubo.com/fsx.html Cheers Swadeep

Yes sir. I have done that already but still don't see much difference. Thanks Swadeep Mind sharing your fsx.cfg please? I have similar set ups to you except mine is Ivy Bridge 3770K o'c to 4.5ghz Thanks Swadeep

While i appreciate all your explanations, I must say that is was unnecessary as we all (including myself) know about those problems. I think a lot of information are being thrown around here and miscommunications and failure to grasp the point has become inevitable. Correct me if i am wrong but a lot of people who are having problems here (including myself) is trying to fix this fps issue, not because of failure to realize that heavy add ons affect the fps, but actually because we are seeing more fps hit in the 777 compared to other add on especially the NGX and the reason people are trying to figure this out is because the T7 was claimed to be more performance friendlier than the NGX. Others (including myself) are failing to see this and that's why we are struggling. For example as i mentioned above: 1. i set the fps to 15 in fmc as suggested. Failed to see any drastic performance improvements. 2. we understand that the mouse hovering thing causes performance hit and that's is down to FSX behavior. Fair enough. But others (including myself) are not seeing this hit at all on NGX or other add ons. Its effect is however really strong on the T7. If it was happening to the other add ons too then fair enough but it isn't and that's why we are on, page 13, still trying to figure it out. 3. Myself, and i and i am sure a few more people, are seeing an effect on the ground too. I have tweaked and T7 has become better but for some reason every time when i land and the wheel touches the ground then fps hit (5-10fps) becomes very obvious including while taxi to the gate. I had one flight where the same thing happened during flight also for a while. While i understand about your explanation about other stuff loadings etc etc, i don't see it happening to NGX or other add ons in worst, if not same, conditions. Hence that's why we are here figuring out what the hell is going on. I am not blaming PMDG or anything. It's a release candidate as mentioned and i am sure SPs will come and things will be better. But until then we just have to try figure out what's going on. We have to be realistic with the performance we get due to our set ups etc and have to understand that FSX was poorly coded also. I agree with that but having said that we shouldn't have to accept these poor performances with the T7 also when all other add ons and NGX are doing fine and better. I mean why should we when it is supposed to be more performance friendly than the NGX right? Once again not blaming PMDG. I love their products and I am positive SPs will fix them. We are all just clueless and frustrated (initially) i guess to not know what's going on and have to spend more times tweaking rather than getting to enjoy this bloddy amazing T7 100% Cheers Swadeep

I get fps drop for no reason when landing and taxi to gate. The flight was fine until touchdown. Anyone getting this? Thanks Swadeep

Exactly. Same here. So there must be something with 777. With fps drop on landings too for me. NGX all good.

I have done a couple of flights now and all is well except i notice something. Sometime randomly while cruising the fps would drop by 7-10 fps. And that's without the mouse moving also. Other times no drop at all even with mouse moving!! Another instance which happen pretty much all time is once landed the fps just drop for no reason. all the way to the gate. this is really weird and it annoys me not knowing why this is happening. I think something's gotta be done. i must admit that i have been looking forward for the T7 for so long and man did PMDG deliver! finest stuff...but now when i fly it i find myself worrying more about how's it going to be this time in terms of performance rather than actually going straight to enjoyment. At the moment the NGX still performs better for me definitely. Hope SPs can solve these problems. thanks swadeep
