I thought that I could avoid SP1 but I can't.

Err, I think the same hacks would work.
SP1 has just changed some stuff about the format of some textures, and has modified the way the autogen is being built, but basically I think the files are still the same.

Or am I wrong ?  :-?

Not really a hack, but try the Autogendescriptions_Mid or _Min first that got put into the "Autogen" folder during SP1 installation.


But then again, if you need texture hacks with SP1...ah well...

Now Now, Bjorn, be kind.  I have an e6700 and 8800GTX system so I get the fps, but like NickN getting a configuration that is suitable for every or most scenarios is hard and frustrating.  High frames does not mean smooth.  So if I can cut down on some of the CPU load then I might enable higher settings with smoother running.

But thanks about the information on the Mid or Min autogen options.  Frankly I never knew that existed.  I suppose the instructions told us somewhere, but I never read about it.  How does it work - just a simple choice?

Just a little filename work.

Back 'em up, add a "_Max" to the current one's filename, and delete the "_Med" or "_Min" from one of the other two's filenames.



Come on, your hardware is better than mine...and I can run FSX almost maxed smoothly.
