I might have a look at the Rex 3 Service Pack 3 and see how it compares with ASN.
-
I had REX + OD but it was too clunky for me. Decided to bite the bullet and bought ASN, but using REX's textures. ASN is definitely the way to go.

OK, GSX loaded, and I've also reverted back to CCC 12.8. All options ticked in Steve's DX10 fixer, and flying the stock FSX C172 without any spikes or tears! Cranking along at 30fps locked on 3 screens. Now to tweak my fsx just that > < little bit more... :-)
-
AMD CCC version 14.4. I did a little more testing and it seems the default FSX C172 is also causing the spikes when I set the weather to major thunderstorms, strangely enough. I also tried the FSX Cessna Grand Caravan and PMDG 737 NGX in DX10 and it's fine. Then I reloaded EZDOK 1.16 and REX Essentials + Overdrive, still no issues. Going to load up GSX next and do more tweaking the fsx.cfg over the next few days and see what happens.

I had to rebuild my PC recently due to a OS crash, and as I was rebuilding my FSX, I noticed that my framerates increased significantly with no spikes. Then I noticed when I loaded up EZDOK v1.17, it all started to happen again. Tried all sorts of tweaks, no joy. Dropped it to DX9, framerates took a massive hit. Reloaded Steve's DX10 fix, framerates jumped right back up. Removed EZDOK and it's all sweet, no spikes or corruption! Will keep experimenting. System: i3570K, overclocked to 4.6GHz, stable. 16Gig RAM ATI Radeon XFX HD7850, 2GB FSX on Samsung 840 Pro 256Gb SSD 3 x Dell 2320 23" 1920 x 1080 screens (5760 x 1080 in Eyefinity)

Can I have the option of mag wheels with mine? And a stretched version.

red_october replied to cvearl's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI'll give this a go later this week if I can. But if it falls in a heap again, especially with DX10, I'm going nVidia.

red_october replied to cvearl's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI'm not sure how it managed but was getting around 25-30 FPS in cockpit view with PMDG 737 NGX, FTX Australia and REX + Overdrive, with EZDOK and GSX on the ground. I did overclock my i3570K to 4.6GHz though. Pretty stable, no crashes. Does anyone have the Gigabyte N760OC-4GD GTX PCI-E card? I assume it will drive 3 screens via Surround?

red_october replied to cvearl's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI only have FSX on my system with 3 x 1920x1080 Dell 23" monitors and I'm ready to switch from ATI to nVidia, so bring on the bargains!!!
-
Yeah, I've given up on the DX10 fixer for my HD7850 and sticking with DX9. I'm running 3 monitors at 5760 x 1200 (or is it 1080, I forget). Now to keep tweaking for the optimal settings for DX9. Can anyone recommend a good nVidia card? I'd need one powerful enough to power 3 monitors.

Can't get it here either in Oz...

Oookay, my PFE is now working with FSX after rebuilding the database, so thanks guys! Now to set it up properly :rolleyes:
-
OK, I've managed to rebuild the database now, thanks for the info guys! :good: Will test PFE with FSX later, other priorities beckon at the moment...
-
Thanks for your help, guys! I'll try it tomorrow, it's 10:45pm here in West Oz. Will report back then!
-
Much appreciated if you can provide me with some instructions, Mike. Thanks muchly in advance. AVSIM to the rescue again :good:
-
The user manual didn't have any specific instructions on how to do it. I assumed it meant run through the steps to compile the flight plan again so I did that again, no joy :( PS - Sorry, I'm pretty useless when it comes to troubleshooting FSX and add-on stuff that don't work...
-
OK, I've just bought PFE and it's not working for me at all. Followed the instructions and converted an IFR flight plan, then complied it. But when I clicked on Connect to FS, it bombed out and gave me this error "You need to rebuild the PFE databases". Looks like a dud purchase at this time :( Asked for assistance in the PFE support forum, but there's hardly anyone on it. Much appreciated if anyone here can help. Running Win 7 64bit, btw. PS - does it actually work in Win 7 64bit??? :(

red_october replied to cvearl's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI've been experimenting with RadeonPro and done some tweaks to see how much I can improve on my fps. I've also got EZDok and GSX running with ORBX FTX and REX. What I've found is that if you make the RadeonPro start up with Windows (I'm running WIN7 64bit), GSX's Couatl will crash and keep crashing. But if I start my PC up normally without RadeonPro, start up REX then FSX, then fire up RadeonPro, it's all sweet. Anybody who's got GSX find this as well, or is it just me? :rolleyes:
-
Been looking at a replacement for FSX ATC. Looks like I'll be putting my money on PFE. Now where's my wallet.....
-
Been looking around for a good Airbus payware aircraft, this might just convince me...
