reece0306 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 When I do a long haul on VATSIM, the sim will freeze for 10 seconds and unfreeze for 5 seconds. It only happens on long haul flights. I need a solution to this issue because frame rates can be low on X-Plane which VATSIM will disconnect you if the frame rate is not consistently at 20 fps or higher.

jorgen.s.andersen Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Is the simulator you use X-Plane or FSX? Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorgen.s.andersen Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Two things can have an impact here - your hardware (is it fast enough) and your online connection. The connection issue, if that could be the culprit, you'll have to take up with your Internet provider, but what are your hardware specs?

JSkorna Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Your laptop is not strong enough for FSX or for X-Plane. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorgen.s.andersen Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 For FSX this should be OK, unless you have very complicated scenery. Also, take a look at this: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?259352-FSX-P3D-Software-and-Hardware-Tweaking-Guide Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 2.0ghz is slow it's a laptop. laptops overheat, slowing the processor further. (especcially ocerheating after a longer run.). use lower settings. les lsvdetail, few clouds. set framerazte target low. (or buy a good pc...)

jorgen.s.andersen Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Ah I missed that this is a laptop..... that means also make sure FSX is using the nVidia graphics adapter and not the Intel one. Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reece0306 Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 FSX is using NVIDIA adapter by default Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
