I bought REX HD 2 and the graphics are awesome. With that being said, I have noticed I go from 150FPS to about 14FPS when I am in clouds or they are in my view. Does anyone know why this is? It is extremely annoying and I hate to uninstall but I feel like I am going to have a seizure (joke) when I fly through the clouds. The stuttering is horrible!

Thanks!

One thing I have heard to help maintain your FPS is to lock them around 25. Because anything over 25, the eye can not notice a difference.
