HiJack Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I'm running Hasswell Mover, OC to 4.2 and my framerate in FSX is steady 60 with all on full with REX Essentials and ORBX FTX Global. Even when flying low I get good frames. Check my spec's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiJack Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yea, well since DCS is going more towards WWII with its resources we need to find something else for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aginor Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Mower helping a noob get set up on FSX....what a paradigm shift! Hey! I'm not a noob, I have flown thousands of hours in FSX in the last few years. I just have no idea about TacPack and the VRS Hornet and I am reinstalling FSX on my new rig to maybe fly that one. ;) DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Jaw Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yea, well since DCS is going more towards WWII with its resources we need to find something else for a while.

Aginor Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 So this is where I am now: - Installed FSX - Installed AccPack I also installed me some planes, don't like the stock ones that much - Installed Flight1 Citation Mustang - Installed Ex-payware C152 FSinsider - Downloaded F-14, F-35 and T-45 from Dino Cattaneo (I tested earlier versions last year and liked them) I may have set the graphics stuff too high, I have <20 FPS when flying the Citation over Manhattan, so I might tweak that a bit (it has a high resolution cockpit and multiple MFCDs so it has an impact on FPS, that's why I use it as a baseline. If the game works wile flying that plane it might work well with the F/A-18 as well if I decide to buy it). Also I heard disabling AA in FSX but enabling it in the NVIDIA settings might help. Also scenery shadows maybe. I'm still trying to find the best settings for ground details and autogen stuff so it doesn't pop up in front of my airplane that visibly while still maintaining at least 25FPS. So if one of you got an extraordinarily cool fsx.cfg I would be very thankful. And one additional question while I'm at it: Is there an addon that improves the visual appearance of textures and maybe also the ground mesh a bit (worldwide) without having to spend 1000 Dollars and using 1TB of disc space? I read about openVFR for example, and FTX-Global. The latter seems to be just one package to install and improves something on the whole world, or am I wrong? I don't need the uber-fotorealistic stuff, just maybe an improvement over stock. But everywhere. I have VFR Germany south and it is nice for glider flying in the area I live, but I want to fly all over the world.

Aginor Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Oh, I forgot to mention it is the FSX gold version. That one already includes the SP1. Installation worked flawlessly, no problem. The tweaking is my topic at the moment. Got to find a way to get at least a bit better FPS... :) DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Jaw Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 A note on FPS with the military jets, if you fly from military airfields, eg AFB and NAS etc, there is usually little or no AI traffic so FPS will benefit.

WildBillKelsoe Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Aginor, the fps drop issue is a known issue with the citation, just so you know. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

Installed vLSO today and did some landings in the F-14D and T-45. Really nice. Aginor, the fps drop issue is a known issue with the citation, just so you know. Yeah, noticed that as well. Actually with every other plane I have great FPS even when setting view distance and stuff pretty high. There isn't a solution to that problem, am I right? Ah ok my apologies. Still a major change from what he used to be though No problem, man! And yeah, people change and that's a good thing.
