Odd FPS problem...

[Omag 2.0]

Hi all,

I wanted your opinions on the following:

I own a P4 2,4 Ghz, geforce Ti4200 - 64 mb card, 756 mb ramm

In FS9 I have decent FPS, but all if a sudden ( after changing camera-views) they drop drastically ( 15 => 3). But if I use the alt-key and go back to the sim, the normal 15 are back...

I've bought me a copy of silent hunter III ( subsimulator) and every time I switch commandposts, same deal, major FPS drop. I have to leave the program and enter it again to make it run smooth again.

This makes 2 programs with the same problem. My card can handle it, since i can correct the FPS-drop. But I wonder what's causing it... and how this might be helped.

Does this ring a bell to anyone?

Thanks,

Omag

In a way it is similar to a problem with my graphics. If I fly a highly detailed plane, it'll be blurry and all. As soon as I push Alt, it goes back to normal...

Cheers,

I've concluded that FS9 will load textures which are in view. When you change views, it the has to load textures in view. Have you waited about a minute for the FPS to pick up again?

So far, that's all I can think of.

Makes sense to me, Skittles. Sometimes the sim has to "catch up".

I believe Skittles is correct, I have similler problem sometimes, but my FPS dosnt drop quite as much.
