Actually this is probably in my interests, I'm improving the concorde (3D cockpit, less laggy nasal, autopilot - slowly) but I have fairly powerful hardware so I'd like to know how much of what I do affects other users. A long time ago, I remember using this to try and figure out why I was getting 10fps on a nvidia GTX470 with the lowest settings and default renderer (I was accidently running a debug build): http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:Debugging_FlightGear_Crashes#Minimal_Startup_Profile I might come up with a dash script that tests things in different areas with different settings, But that will only be helpful on linux. I'll probably just use the telnet server to pull the property tree frame rates/spacing I haven't used it yet but I imagine it would be quite easy). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
