I was able to have it optimize mine and I have the same graphics card. Puzzling. Sorry that I don't have a solution.

I believe the Twin Otter comes with 2024, not 2020.

I do so my family doesn't have to hear the noise.

I used electrical tape to attach the regular track clip to my headset. Works like a charm with no hat or visor to get in the way.

Can't get past checking for updates at all.

I thought I read that the technical alpha was not the most recent build of the sim and that people should expect missing features and bugs. So why all the doom and gloom? History keeps repeating itself.

I'll try it... Thanks.

As a point of information, I had the same problem with the Black Square Duke. Couldn't load a flight plan into the default GNS 530. I believe this started after SU 15.. Solved the problem by switching to the free PMS GTN750.

Interesting... Thanks, will try it next time.

I had a similar problem with a dead battery after doing the update. Couldn't see a way to charge it. Turning off state saving and starting a new flight fixed it.

Okay...did some more testing and noticed that the trigger to the dropping fps is changing graphic settings. Started out with frame rates jumping from 30-50, then went into graphic settings and REDUCED all sliders from ultra to high. then frames dropped to 24. Only thing that made fps go back up is shutting down and restarting the sim. Strange.

It would happen after only a few minutes. I don't recall if it happened after doing something like changing views or it was just out of the blue. Graphic settings were all the way to the right which is how the sim set itself up by default. But turning the settings down had no effect...it was like I had the frames locked at 24. Last night I tried again and I did notice that an update was applied on startup. Frame rates seemed to be up again (in free flight) but they fluctuated quite a bit. Unfortunately I didn't get much time to test it as we then had a major blackout in my area and that took care of that!

I'm having a strange issue. When I start the sim, at first my frame rate will be in the 40-50 range. Then after a period of time it will suddenly throttle back to 24, seemingly locked at that number, even though "unlimited" is still displayed next to the counter. Turning down the graphic settings has no effect. I can correct by shutting down and restarting the sim. Interestingly, it's still pretty smooth at 24 fps. This has never happened in my other sims (FSX/P3D). BTW I am running a 50" plasma TV as my monitor using HDMI? Anybody else run into this issue? Any thoughts on the cause?
