I used the updater because i have the CD Boxed edition of the ATR and i bought it on a local office max in Mexico so no F1 lic key.. Maybe the difference in size is because FSX uses another type of texture compression or maybe they are in DDS format but i dont know, i would need to purchase the FSX version to check.

Alright then, i will download repaints and other stuff for FSX taking note it must be FSX native so it will have nicer frame rates, also look up if there is any FSX ready version of a nice payware to purchase, thank you guys!

Hi!, thank you for replying to my post, well the FSX updater i used was the one you download from Flight1's ATR 72-500 main product page, after you download it it will start copying the FS9 files into FSX, and yes, FSX default planes run very smoothly in comparison to other addons, what i hate or i get angry to is that some FS9 planes have such a poor performance when compared to PMDG's 737 for example or the MD-11, could this be related to the texture format used by FS9 planes? (.BMP, DXT3 but not .DDS?) I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OS. Thank you!

Hi everyone im new to this forum so... i will introduce myself hehehe, my name is Fernando, im 20 years old and im from Venezuela, i fly regularly in Flight Simulator X with the PMDG 737NGX and Jetstream 41, and now i recently installed an old software i had around which was originally developed for FS9 but adapted to FSX, its the Fly The Maddog by Leonardo SH but i noticed that in comparison to PMDG's 737NGX the Maddog has very but veeery low frame rates (around 5 FPS) with everything low in the setup tab within the configuration manager, in fact it happens with almost every aircraft which was originally developed for FS9 and adapted for FSX, for example the F1's superb ATR 72-500 the panel graphics and virtual cockpit model is very frame rate friendly in FS9 but after i used the FSX updater to migrate it from fs2004 and tried to make a flight with it i simply couldnt, frame rates were veery low (again, 5-6 fps), it also happened with Majestic's Dash 8 but every other aircraft like the Super 80 professional for fsx had a frame rate of 20+ fps, any idea of why is this happening? please help, sometimes its very frustrating because the most realistic addons are fs9 based aircraft.. Thank you in advance! My specs are: Intel i3 2.26Ghz clock Nvidia 310M Video card 4GB Ram 500GB Hard disk Please take note that in most FSX-based aircraft i have very good performance (like 20+ fps) so i know my setup is fairly good enough for FSX within my pocket size lol.
