Framerate question

Here is the situation, I have lowered my framerate in-sim from 60 to 30 (at 60 my GPU was maxing out). I thought I would be getting 30 FPS, however, using Fraps, I see that I am getting consistently 20 FPS. I've confirmed that I do have it set to 30. I would like those extra 10 FPS.

I have read on the forum (somewhere) that there is an Nvidia program/setting which controls the framerate in the sim. Can someone point that to me?

Thanks!

Hi David, yes it the nvidia Control panel. Do a right click on your desktop & you should see the panel listed. Open it and click “manage 3D settings” (at the left of the screen, under 3D settings)

From there... click on the “program settings” tab (middle of screen) then use the drop down box to find Microsoft Flight Sim.

The main box will list loads of options, including “max frame rate”. - you can set this to whatever you want.

I’m not sure you’ll get extra FPS though. Might be worth checking if you’ve got the latest nVidia drivers too.
