And this surprised you? A quote from the Gamespot review "Microsoft Flight Simulator X is an incredible piece of software, providing almost unbelievable capabilities for a consumer product.
Unfortunately, on most systems at anything other than the lowest of the game's graphics settings, the simulation has significant performance issues. How much these issues hinder your enjoyment of the game will depend upon what kind of frame rates you need to enjoy a civilian flight sim. But that power comes at a price. This same system runs Flight Simulator at high settings with frame rates averaging plus fps.
Its an extremley demanding game for sure. I can play at x with AA on my rig in sig at ultra-high global settings but it by no means pumps out massive fps. Also the sliders dont even go all the way to the end for ultra-high setting, theres more to be had but I dont know a system that would be up for that : I get a managable fps for the most part at the aforementioned settings which is absolutely fine for a flight simulator given the speeds and view you see.
It does dip below 20fps but doesnt really become unplayable until you get closer to 10fps. Lol, even I have issues with some of the missions, especially the tokyo escort where you have to land on the hotel roof, and I have GTX's in SLi. This is an uber demanding game which i think is actually being hindered by a lack of Vista and DX Share More sharing options Followers 1.

Nick Cooper Posted April 9, Hello, I would completely agree and have seen this effect for as long as I have had a great deal of scenery added to my simulators. The amount of scenery in the scenery library is in direct proportion to the amount of time it takes to load.

Start Button. Click the Start button to start the test and vary the selected pitch, bank and yaw attitudes for the aircraft. At the start of a test the aircraft is automatically positioned feet AGL.
Stop Button. Click the Stop button to terminate the test and recentre the aircraft. Either click on the Quit button or the dialog's X to abort the test and close the Live View Test dialog. TypeInitialisation errors when running the client program.
For P3Dv3. SlimDX error. EXE program with the correct argument for your sim type. Is not blocked by AV or Win Defender software. Otherwise its attempt to copy and rename the SlimDX file will fail. Can't connect to client. Have you configured the correct number of clients in the server? Check a windows update hasn't re-enabled 'password protected sharing' on the PCs. Is an Anti Virus program active or Win Defender active on the client? Stop Anti Virus software and disable Win Defender since these will cause problems and even possibly stop or delete the software.
Try both methods. Can I use a Wi-Fi network? Yes you can, however you should note that a direct Wi-Fi link is only going to give you 54Mbps and a redirected link will operate at about 16 to 24Mbps. You will find the link works perfectly well with perhaps a few tiny jitters when taking off of flying fast and low depends how good or busy your Wi-Fi link is. My client system lags behind the server. The lag indicates the clients cannot keep up with the updates.
The programs have 32K buffers for both receive and transmit over each IPC link, hence the possible back log. There are two solutions. The best is to reduce the rate of updates sent from the server by adjusting the configurable scan rate i.
The second solution is to occasionally pause using the 'P' key on the server, let everything catch up and then unpause, let things settle and the lag will then be gone. You can also use the pause key to measure the lag or amount of buffering at the client end. If the system is configured and tuned correctly there should never be any lag and both server and client should pause together almost instantly.
If your system is set up correctly it should be able to cope with the throughput. We have a Live View test facility to help you tune your system.
Once they connect their FSXs will normally reload to the new location, they will also resync after receiving their first weather update necessary to ensure correct cloud sync. Once all the client systems are settled then you can force another weather update just before takeoff to make sure all is well and then you are ready to go.
It is very important to set up your client systems as per the Getting Started guides to optimise your client systems, this can have a dramatic impact on the performance. It also helps if you are displaying scenic views to select one of the simple FSX stock aircraft e. You may also try adjusting the target frames rates, either Unlimited or on slower systems you could even set 20 to It's all about giving FSX more time to process the stream of position updates.
The tell tale sign that one system has been paused too long is that you will get different cloud formations on the server and client system. If you don't pause this should never happen. We also recommend not running anti-virus software since this can have a serious performance effect on the clients and can even stop or delete our software.
Can't get cameras or weather on the clients. You haven't set up your sharing and security permissions for Everyone on your server and client systems. Hence you have no client weather the client cannot copy the weather file , and you have no external aircraft view the client cannot prepare your aircraft.
You should also have the all the standard views available, so with a cockpit view on display on the client, hitting the S key four times should cycle to the custom external aircraft view. But this will only happen when the CameraDefinition has been appended to the aircraft.
Both systems must be shared with all security permissions set as per this guide. Win7 and XP networked systems.
