I just wanted to see if it did anything for the initial load a few miles away from the airport.
The pop up setting doesn't look like it does anything on my system.
Thanks.
I have fiddled with the popup setting for a few weeks now. I have had it set at 4, 10, and 20. Each time I think that it works better, but in the end I am thinking for me that I just get a placebo effect, because no matter where I set it, I still get too many little pauses when approaching for the first time. If I am in a small plane of a GA aircraft and flying around the airport it seems ok though.
I wish there was a way that I could recompile all the ground textures into one .bgl that would load all at once, including all the taxiway, runway, and other ground markings. I believe on my system that its all the ground artwork that causes all the micro pauses, not the actuall scenery object like buildings, hangers, cars, etc.
I have tried to fiddle with this stuff myself, but not being really experienced in scenery design, aside from making some photoreal ground textures, I haven't had success. What I was going to try was placing my own photoreal ground bgl and remove the FSDT bgl that had the ground tiles and gound artwork linked to it. There are 9 bgl's in the scenery folder.

So far I am not sure what the strisce and Fondo bgl are linked to. Plus I dont know if I can use a bgl decompiler to decompile these and recompile to one bgl or edit the load settings internally. It's a lot to mess with and test , especially if you dont know to much about this stuff.
Plus like Umberto said in another post where we were talking about this, he said that the scenery isn't sold as a "do it yourself project". I understand that, but am always trying improve what I have if I am having an issue at an airport or sccenery addon.
DJJose, I know how you feel though, As much as I love the sceneries, its sometimes a little disappointing to be getting good FPS on approach, but keep having little pauses while on approach. Takes a little of the fluid motion feel away. I wouldn't mind so much if it was just one pause while the initial thing loaded, it just the little pauses that get me. Last night I flew into KORD and was getting pauses like crazy. I thought it was just KFLL that did it but I guess for me KORD does as well. All the other sceneries are fine on my computer though.
