FPS drop at airfields

[Meso]

Hi there,

Recently i have noticed a significant drop when im near or on an airport. It does not really make a difference which airport it is. i usually reach 25 fps (where it is locked at), but this drops to 8-10 when im near an airfield. also it does not matter which plane im flying.

I have x-graphics and active sky-x installed, do these applications cause issues like i'm seeing? I have the autogen slider set to normal and scenery complexity to extremely dense. this however was always the case without such a drop in fps.

could add-on planes also cause this? i have the following installed:
alphasim t-6 and t-34C
aerosoft f-16
realair spitfire

I tried nhancer and that helped a bit with the overall performance, maybe there is a setting i've missed that could solve this.

kind regards and thanks in advance,

Meso

Do you have lots of AI or airports vehicles at these airports? Try reducing the AI to see if it helps.:)

Try setting the framerate-slider to "unlimited" if you haven't done so. Worked for me, though ground texture loading is slower as a result. See here for a discussion on the matter:

I have only GA traffic enabled and the slider is on 30%

i will try the fps limiter as well

holy crap!!!!! that fps thing is killing! i always had it on 25 and i had at Oshkosh 8-15 fps in the aerosoft f-16. setting the fps to unlimited gave me 25-30 fps :wiggle:

didnt fly yet so i will try that right now!
