WHY SO SLOW ???

[Captain_King]

Hi all,

I've a question:

My specs:
Athlon XP 2000
GeForce 3 Ti200
512 MB

What are normal framerates for this setup, in for example Meigs? I only get around 20 with sliders maxed. Moreover my textures are always getting blurried when I'm on my way...

In NL2000 scenery I only get around 6. That's not normal is it?

Which framerates do YOU get??

Regards,

Kars

"I only get around 20 with sliders maxed."
20 is FINE and lots of guru's will suggest that you lock your fps at that rate or lower to free up cpu muscle for other tasks.

I think that most folks with similar rigs would report that they get mid-teens fps in very dense areas such as KORD and KLAX. I do.

I know it is fast, but i expect higher, given the specs i showed you. Especially at dense areas like schiphol. (Higher than 8)

Hi Kars,

There is nothing wrong with your machine, it's definitely not your system, it's the NL2000 scenery, not fully optimized for FS2000 at this time, I get 5 ~ 8 FS/S at EHAM too, try to disable ATC, this will gain a few extra Frames/Sec


My Specs,
P4 1700
512 MB SDRAM
GF II Ti 64 MB graphics card

Regards,
Michel

OOps f2000 must be fs2002 sorry,
At what number did you have your Framrate locked?

I have nearly the exact same machine as yours with nearly the same FPS. Unless both of us are missing something obvious this must be the norm.
