Cowboy10uk Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 Hi all, i am struggling with getting some decent fps on my pc at the mo, and during my research ive come across several comments that seem to indicate that the SimApp Pro software can reduce your fps by 10 to 20 fps. Now that is a decent drop and could actually be the difference of my pc running a mission or not. So im thinking i might stop using it. HOWEVER i have literally this morning ordered a orion base with MFSSB and the F16ex stick so i can swap my F18 pit across to an F16. Now im wondering do the pressure sensors of the MFSSB require you to be running the SimApp Pro software at all times to work, OR once i calibrate it, can i then stop using the software? i know i will loose synced lighting on the throttle base without it, but as im trying to move from 2d to VR that lighting is no longer really needed.

You only need to use Simappro for initial config, calibration and firmware updates. If you own the throttle/MIP and want to sync lights etc you'll need Simappro running Edited November 18, 2023 by MustangSally Ryzen 9 7950X3D - MSI MAG X670E TomaHawk MB, ASUS ROG Ryujin III 360 AIO 64gig Corsair DDR5@6000, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 AORUS Winwing Super Taurus, Orion2, TO / Combat panels, Collective with Topgun MIP Winwing Skywalker pedals, NLR Boeing Mil Edition Simpit, 55" Samsung Odyssey Ark, Trackir

If you own the throttle/MIP and want to sync lights etc you'll need Simappro running Thankyou for getting back to me. That’s good news it’s been resolved on one hand, on another it must mean something else is tanking the framerates. Although that said, I just turned it on after the latest patch, booted up a quick F16 instant mission and the fps was showing over 110 fps. I’ve NEVER seen it that high before and that was before I changed anything. was in single figures last week. hence hoping turning off sim app pro would help out the situation. Fingers crossed when I boot up tomorrow my framerates are not in the weeds again.

If you want to sync your backlighting and landing gear handle (Takeoff panel) then you must have Simappro running in the background Edited November 29, 2023 by MustangSally 1 Ryzen 9 7950X3D - MSI MAG X670E TomaHawk MB, ASUS ROG Ryujin III 360 AIO 64gig Corsair DDR5@6000, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 AORUS Winwing Super Taurus, Orion2, TO / Combat panels, Collective with Topgun MIP Winwing Skywalker pedals, NLR Boeing Mil Edition Simpit, 55" Samsung Odyssey Ark, Trackir
SKYWARRIOR Posted February 3 Posted February 3 (edited) It also seems you have to run it for the HUD /UFC screen although it swims the 3 DDI' run without it or am I missing something?

You need Simappro running to sync lights, Landing gear handle, UFC etc. Anything that requires a specific input.
