Stuttering in FS9: Can it be fixed?

(1/5) > >>

Hello all,

Just a week ago I got my new computer that finally handle FSX. It has a Core i7 920 (not OC'd yet), GTX285 Black Edition, 6GB Corsair RAM, EVGA X58 LE mobo, and a Ultra X-Blaster case. This can run FSX pretty good it stuttered at first, but I was able to fix it with a bufferpools tweak from the Orbx forum. However when I use FS9 I get 50-70 fps even at FSDT airports, but it stutters alot which is clearly noticeable when you are having high frames like that. Can stuttering in FS9 be fixed with a tweak or something? I have heard bufferpools don't work in FS9 just X. Any support is good.

Thanks,
Dan

The texture resizer (available for all airports except KORD I think?) helps a lot against stuttering. It resizes the ground textures from 1024x1024 to 512x512. The loss of quality isn't too bad but there is a noticeable improvement in smoothness.  Just go to the "Products Support" section of the appropriate airport(s) and download, it's pretty self-explanatory.

Ok thank you JFKpilot will give that a try, but it seems to stutter wherever I go and not just FSDT airports.
I'll test it and see what happens  8)

JFKpilot:
I thought you were referring to just Fsdt airports, my bad. You said you get 50-70 fps, does that mean you have fps set to unlocked? Maybe you should lock it at 30 or a similar number? 

crunk747:
Yes, I always have the frames to unlimited, but you cant really tell a difference from 50 frames to 30 frames so I will also give that a try along with the texture resizer. Do u know if bufferpools work in FS9?

Regards,
Dan
