This new video is a long one but very nice with the sunset as backdrop. :)

Nice video!  I really do like the colors.

Unfortunately, the only color I'd be seeing if I were a passenger is green...man oh man, that climbout. :D

I gave up watching around the five minute mark because I was getting dizzy from all the viewing angle changes.  You should turn Fraps off when you change views and edit them together later.

I've been starting to do that a bit more and will continue that trend for sometime to come. :)

What Hardware are you using? Your frame rates are extremely good, looking for computers that can handle mega-sceneries like this.

Well what is "Good"?

With the FSDT sceneries, + GEP, the video shown above, he has excellent frame rates.

Not saying he has GEP.

I'll have to find the topic where I posted the information previously and then link it here.
Here's my specs I have had listed on PMDG signature.....

Important note: Must also take in memory resources available at anytime before starting FSX.*

I know people who have more addons running than just the two you mentioned and they get better frames with higher settings.

If you look at this thread (http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=3194.0), he is getting under 10 FPS.  If he bumps his settings up JUST a tad, he would be watching an interesting looking slide show, and that's it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again (and I don't remember the specific specs that PUP posted), but PUP's system clearly isn't meant to handle FSX on good settings with good FPS.

Look above for the answer.......... ;)

I see that now, and I stand by what I said.  Your computer just isn't going to handle good settings while still getting good FPS.  You may have good FPS while you are flying over water at 33,000 ft. but get anywhere near a city, add in any sort of weather or addons or even a little AI and I bet your system is begging for mercy.

I don't mean this in a rude way but your FSX screenshots/videos really don't look all that good graphically...I'm assuming that is because you have most settings turned down to be able to achieve anything beyond a slideshow.

To be honest, I'd say you should have at least a Quad Core (I'd really have something like an i5 or i7 now as they keep getting cheaper), at least 4 GB of RAM (although more would certainly be better).  By the way, I've never heard of any graphics card have 1024 GB. :P I believe you mean 1024 MB or 1 GB.  Also, are you sure you overclocked your processor from 2 GHz to nearly 6 GHz.  I'm far from an expert on computers but nearly tripling your processing speed sounds nuts.

Yes the video card IS 1GB. Most of the addons I have are airports and airplanes by far no weather or terrain features. I have checked multiple times to see that my processor has actually overclocked at that speed and it has and while a few ideas I have had in changing the processor(next practical level) I keep all my options open for the time being.
