Reading all of this made me worrie very much about FSX on my system but it runs more than fine. Seems like it's a case of deal with the fact that it is a very advanced piece of software that is a bit ahead of its time. Get up and go outside!  :D

And don't take me seriously, just pass the Scotch.

Oh great, FSX turned into a drinking contest.


Black ZR-1, could you give me your numbers?

You going to talk, or drink?  

It's best not drink before tweaking FSX. Very expensive hardware could attempt to fly in that process, or the DVD's may become corrupted after zipping out a window under high velocity and spin force

[ATI_7500]

FSX looks and performs worse when I'm drunk.

Believe me...


Drink!



- Edit: I haven't continued twaeking FSX yet. Needed to give my laptop a treatment

Don't worry, when plugged in, the laptop never shuts down anything for power saving.

In fact, it doesn't even have to be

[justpassingthrough]

I did something stupid and reinstalled everything

I never should have done it


Now I get stutters that come and go on the same settings that were completely and totally smooth. The only way I have been able fix that (for the most part) is to set [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=1 on my dual core

[ATI_7500]

What good is Buildings and Trees at both 6000 at 20 FPS with "very dense" if it's concentrated densely in a small circle around your aircraft?

Default FSX landclass looks awful, but with add-on landclass, it's even worse.


This is about it, I'm going back to retail. Or install TileProxy. Or both.

Stupid patch. They should have put a warning in it: "Only for people with simple needs & PCs".  ::)

[justpassingthrough]

pisses me off too


Its after 12 noon.,.. time to belly up  

[ATI_7500]

Ah, the good stuff!


You know what?
Let's just bust open the SP1 installer and search for what enables dual core functionality. Install only that and done.

What else would we need anyways?

Thats just it, I think NickN is right and the dual core use is a bunch of hot air. If I can shut down 1 core and have my FR increase and stutters go away on the same settings, WTF is dual core support doing for me anyway?

bURP!
