wrong product from FS dream

I didn't know there were different versions of GSX for MS2020? How do I get the best one? -
MSFS 2020 Auto FPS App v0.4.2
jarmstro replied to Reset XPDR's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Thanks so much. That's very helpful. Especially the explanation of what MS2020 in focus means. I use a second monitor for things like Simbrief, ATC and Navigraph etc. I'm thinking that maybe the sim is never 'in focus' although the app seems to do its stuff just fine? -
MSFS 2020 Auto FPS App v0.4.2
jarmstro replied to Reset XPDR's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Could you clarify this for me please. I use FG. What does the fps figure in the app show? Is it with or without FG? What figure for target fps should i use assuming that, without FG, I would be happy with a minimum of say 30fps? -
MSFS 2020 Auto FPS App v0.4.2

I doubt that I will install the latest build. Because, well, the one I am using is working just great! -
Next-Gen Scenery first details!

Isn't this just unnecessary eye candy? -
Since the sim was released who has contributed more to the sim than these guys? You buy the sim and can have an outstandingly good A320 for free. And now this. I remember the arguments I had with XP worshiper Janov who dismissed the FBW team as amateur nobodies without the necessary skills to make a study level aircraft. I wonder what he would say now? A humble pie supper for him methinks!😂

I am getting confused. The app is working fine. I have DX12 and FG on and FPS set to a minimum of 35. My FPS is capped to 69 in the NV Control Panel because that's the maximum of my monitor. By and large the app keeps my FPS at 69 fps. It rarely drops below that. But I get stutters in extremely high load situations? Memory loading issues no doubt. Not terrible stutters but they are there. The app doesn't seem to resolve this?
-
First beta the memory loading pauses I got were gone. Second beta they were back.
-
I did. I think they are rowing back on the memory optimisations.
-
I hope they have rectified the very obvious performance regression noticeable in the last one.

Find your MS2020 exe.xml file and edit it as I've tried to explain. I'm sorry that I can't be more precise than this but I'm no geek. Some one else may be able to help you locate the file. The exe.xml is basically a file which lists all the external programs that need to be started when MS2020 launches. Most installers can find it but this one just assumes it's in the default location which in many cases it isn't. I'm guessing that this will be corrected before too long.

You will find that its added a new rogue exe.xml file in what it expected to be the default install path on your C drive. For me it was C:\Users\jarms\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator. If you cant find it add this to your exe.xml file <Launch.Addon> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Name>MSFS2020_AutoFPS</Name> <Path>C:\Users\jarms\AppData\Roaming\MSFS2020_AutoFPS\bin\MSFS2020_AutoFPS.exe</Path> </Launch.Addon> And edit the \jarms\ part to you own C:\Users\ ? \ path. As you can see I am no coder!!😀 But Im up and running and it auto starts. And if you find the erroneously created new file the above is the only part of the code you need. (I only know about this because of a hilarious fight I had with Aerosoft after I submitted a support ticket with regard to the DRM for the E175 who's installer did exactly the same thing. Aerosoft simply refused to believe that it was possible for the exe.xml file to be anywhere other than in the default location! 50 screenshots and emails later they finally twigged and sorted the installer!😀)

The app is fantastic. However I cannot get it to autostart. Th installer is not editing my exe.xml i think because its not in the default location? Could some one kindly post the relevant code so that I can manually edit the exe.xml file myself? EDIT Never mind, I found where the installer put the code and copied and pasted it into the correct exe.xml.

Fixed. I needed to update my Navdata.
