I have a lot of stutters in FSX with Honolulu and was wondering what settings I can apply to Add-On Manager. Same thing for all the Hawaii airports. Once I'm outside the airport FPS are normal with no stutters.

You can try to raise the Anti-popup value, which will increase smoothness, at a cost of lower frame rate, but on a fast machine this might not be noticeable.

I have the same problem. But no stutters at LSZH 1.xx, KLAS or KJFK. How is this possible?

Please, define stutters. Are they micro-pauses, or larger pauses ? Micro-pauses are cured by increasing the Anti-popup, larger pauses seems to indicate a problem with missing or wrong file, like installing Zurich 2.0 without uninstalling the old version first.
-
larger pauses, about half a second or longer. I only installed the software one time.

Could try to download and install the Stand-Alone Addon Manager for FSX, and see if it does any difference ?

It's possible to enable the Simconnect diagnostic mode, this way, to check if there are errors causing pauses:
Open Notepad, and copy the following text:
[SimConnect]
level=normal
console=1
RedirectStdOutToConsole=1
OutputDebugString=1
; file=c:\simconnect%03u.log
; file_next_index=0
; file_max_index=9
Save the file as SIMCONNECT.INI in this folder:
Documents And Settings\YOUR LOGIN NAME\Documents\Microsoft Flight Simulator X Files
At the next FSX launch, you should see a text window with diagnostic messages scrolling down, try to identify if there are things that looks like errors when there's a pause.

I didn't find any 'errors'. Everything seems ok.
I also deinstalled and made a new insallation of the software. No change.

Then it's not the problem of a scenery. Long stutters might be caused by missing object that FSX is trying to create unsuccessfully but, if the Simconnect diagnostic doesn't report this, it's not a problem of the scenery, but something else you have in the PHNL area, like AI for example. No, Simconnect is not able to diagnose these, unless you use UT2, which creates AI using Simconnect.

Ok, thank you for your support!
