Evening everyone,

I have been dealing with very bad frames with Gary Widups scenery for a long time and its finally driven me here to ask for help. Offline, 0% traffic, clear sky, I get 13fps at SLC. When flying online with traffic, PMDG 747, FSDT KLAS, and stormy weather I average 25 frames. Does anybody else experience low frames with his scenery? This is my second computer I have used the scenery on and both have the same result. Its got to be something I am doing wrong. I just defraged this week with O&O Defrag. Any help that leads to solving the problem gets a cookie! cool

Specs:
nVidia geForce 9800GT 1024MB
4GB DDR2 RAM
Intel E2200 2.2ghz (OC 3.0ghz)

Thanks!!

I'm thinking it's just the way he designed the scenery and there's a huge number of polygons. Not everything designed for FS is optimized.

Thats what I was thinking but when I talk to other SLC users, I am the only one that experiences the low frames. confused
