Yes. Buy a more powerful graphics card :-) Seriously though - could you
clarify what are you referring to in particular - the scenery? The
aircraft
3D models? Objects in the scenery?
We already have quite a few nice graphical effects, often disabled by
default
for performance reasons (you can turn some of them on through the
view/rendering options menus).
You are very welcome (and encouraged) to help contribute new scenery
objects
etc - if you think aircraft models are lacking in detail or unfinished
(which
admittedly some are) then you can also help out there.
With a reasonably powerful computer and decent graphics card, even with all
the graphical effects turned on framerates should be very acceptable (i.e.
over 30fps or so).
Cheers,
AJ

I've actually got an Athlon64 3500+, Radeon X200 card, 512MB RAM, and around
airports and some features (like horizon effect) on, and I get 5 FPS. Is it
possibly a scenery problem? It doesn't help much if I turn some effects off.
Or is it possibly my computer having performance issues.
