Started using one not too long ago and I'm impressed. At busy places like KORD, the external limiter gives me 50% better FPS than FSX's internal one!
Ya I just used Jesus' tweak site that tweaks your fsx.cfg. So far, my performance hasn't increased much but my stability is up a ton. No more stuttering and stuff.

U tried downlading the file, but rapid share was doung their usual extortion thing and telling me i had a modified ip which they knew was an error, but could be fixed if i spent money on them, or wait till hell freezes over to get the download.. i started looking for alternative download sites, and came across this http://dxtory.com/v2-home-en.html . Check HEB Ad and Hy Vee Ad. it's a hyper fast screen capture software, and may be the best find i've found in a long time.. I'll put it in anther post. But for those like myself who do not have either the money to subscribe to rapid share and who's principals are too high to give into extortion, i'll keep looking for FPS_Limiter elsewhere..

Here you go Warchild. RS did the same thing for me so I used this alternate site instead.

I've downloaded this, but there are no instructions as what to do with it. Where do I put it and what do I do with it ?
Cheers
This comes from Nick Needham (SimForums.com):
Unrar/unzip
Be aware that where you place the folder must remain or it will break its use and you will need to reconfigure the bat file
USE:
Run FPS_Limiter_GUI.jar and click SEARCH EXECUTABLE
browse for and select FSX.exe
set frame limit to 30 under MAXIMUM FPS
Click CREATE BAT
Once complete close the interface and use the created file fsx.exe.limited.bat to start FSX (double click it)
set frame lock to UNLIMTED in FSX and use the AG slider to tune
You MUST have JAVA installed to use that interface
http://www.java.com/en/
Now here is the deal... this attacks the UNLIMITED FRAME LOCK problem related to Vsync introduced by Aces in SP1/SP2. Instead of tuning the FRAME LOCK you will tune the AUTOGEN slider for smooth results where you are flying. Leave the FSX frame lock slider at UNLIMITED at all times.
You can fine tune this app as well... I found 30 was the sweet spot for all occasions. I would suggest no less than 24 and no more than 30 but start with 30.
FSX must always be started by clicking the created command line BAT file.. NOT the FSX desktop icon. You can replace the FSX desktop icon with a shortcut to the BAT file and assign the FSX icon to it.
I don't know what I'm doing, but when I double click on it, a small black screen flashes up then dissapears, can't seem to get it do do what you recommend despite installing Java
My guess is you are clicking on the .exe and not the jar file? You need to click on the jar file to start with.

nope - same thing happened to me - turned out that I didn't have Java installed...problem was I did have it - why wouldn't I?
But I downloaded it anyway and tried the FPS limiter again and this time it worked - I could see the installation gui and its option where before I got the little black screen that tells you something got loaded onto your rig in DOS...
then - when I tried to USE the limiter - I saw no improvement...AND my AICarriers installation was gone along with Xaviers Nimitz!!!
there is no uninstall option for FPS limiter and I still cannot find its files anywhere on my rig AND I still cannot fix my AIcarriers program and get it to run at all!
My favorite thing to do in FSX is cats and traps and now - barring a complete reinstallation of FSX (which I will not do unless it is so FUBAR it wont load) I have no Aicarriers
Thanks heywood.. tried downloading from the link you gave and Panda blocked it due to the site running phishing software.. I recommend running yout virus scan and seeing what its put on your system..
Oh I have tried everything short of taking it in to the shop or reinstalling FSX
so far no soap...its frustrating but since FSX still works and my AV and anti-malware programs indicate no other intrusions I am going to plug along like this for now - it wont be long before FSX requires its usual bi-annual burping anyhoo
FPS LIMITER 0.2 HERE IT IS:

fast and free.
Recall that works just for DirectX 9
Hi,
Does anyone know what the D3D8, D3D9 or OGL options in the GUI do?
Seems to work OK though, I now only use D3D8.
Best, Rob

D3D# is another way of saying DX# so D3D8 is DX8 and D3D9 is DX9... OGL is another graphics handler called Open GL..
Ah, thanks Pam, this is a DUH moment. On the other hand, why not say DX9 when a programmer means DX9.
So I should go for D3D9 then.

D3D3 = Direct 3D ver3 (or DirectX)
D3D8 = Direct 3D ver8 (or DirectX)
OGL = Open GL
if I'm not mistaking. And there I was replying too late as usual!
This may help...

Roger - that did the trick!
I thank you very much for this recommendation - it was exactly the problem.
I just uninstalled my java files - they were corrupted in some way - reinstalled and now I am flying carrier quals again
I really appreciate your help on this one - :salute:

I downloaded and installed the FPS limiter using the instructions furnished by hschuit (Thanks!) on page 1 of this thread. When I click on the FSX limiter icon, the black screen comes up, and FSX starts, but the frame rate is not limited (?! - It's set at 30.) Anyone know what's going on?
Thanks,
Jerry
In FSX the frame rate on screen will be displayed as "unlimited", but if you look at the actual fps you will see it hovering around 30 and spiking to 32, at least on my system. The external limiter does not seem to be the best at limiting fps exactly to the desired setting, but it does remove a serious bottleneck from FSX.

On a similar note, I've tried using the java file to create a new BAT with FPS limited to just 20... but every time I start FSX it hovers around 30 FPS...
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Has anyone else tried limiting their FPS to something other than the default 30?
Many thanks
