I did not seem to make a difference at a smaller airport within the base package. I turned off all optional features such as AI and random objects, but this seemed to have no effect. So far the only thing that has a small effect is running it in a window at 1280x1024 @16bit. But there is still the occasional pause and stutter. Reading the threads in the User List, there was a suggestion by Stuart that I may need to be 500nm away, so I will add some scenery far away and see how that goes.

Sadly, clicking on the Default button causes the launcher to crash. But I found the hidden folder in "Application Data". Deleting it brought me back to defaults.

It takes nearly a minute after starting FG at KSFO for my system to settle down into a stable frame-rate due to all the models being loaded. During this time I see the same wide variations in frame-rate as you - 60~1 fps. Do you get the same results if you start at a much simpler airport some distance away from KSFO?

[Flightgear-devel] Performance issues in Win32
Hi all, Again not sure if I should post this to the users list. I have been experimenting with the latest FG 1.0.0 on Win32 (XP SP2) and am having some rather significant frame dropping. FPS on or near the ground at San Fran in all AC often results in long pauses and jumps, with regular stutters. FPS are all over the map, from 60fps to 1 frame every couple of seconds. I am using a Dual Core FX60, 2 Gig DDR, with an NV8800GTX. Are there specific tweaks that can be made, or are there some settings that should be turned off? I have tried to reset to default but then FG launcher seems to crash. I tried to remove FG using the uninstall program and then cleaning out the registry, deleting the folder etc, but it seems to be keeping the settings that I had with FG 0.9.10 (is there an INI somewhere other than in the FG folder in Program Files?)
