Frame Rates

Thanks for the confirmation JL :)

Does it matter if you limit the FPS from FSX or an external tool such as an external FPSLimiter like nVidia Inspector? - I'm assuming this would ONLY work in FSX for the data acquisition?

Cheers,

I have no idea how the third party FPS limiters work. I think the FSX built in limiter will work better as it limits the simulation FPS as well as the visual FPS.

Yeah I thought that was the case (External apps probably only limit the visual FPS) :)

Hi,

Some users have been doing tests.
Apparently, the best scenario is limiting the FPS using FS internal limiter to a value which proves to be constant throughout your flight.
Using external limiters is not useful at all.

I still recommend FPS between 30 and 40, which will keep a smooth display, and free some CPU for the rest of the software.

Thanks for the clarification JL... I'll stick with the internal FSX limiter then :)

In case you haven't seen them, NickN has compiled a great deal of info on FSX "tweeks" (or non-tweeks) that improve performance. Well worth the read and implementation.
