of course it would be Nice. One of the few Aerosoft releases that I dont have. I may have to change that. Let me see what I come up with.
Jonathan, I think after a year of frustration with Nice X, I have finally put it's performance issues behind me. Last night I was fiddling around with the textures, once again, at that airport and decided to convert all the ground, terminal, hanger, and other large building textures to DXT1 w/mips. For the first time since I have owned that airport, I am now getting FPS in the mid to high 30's which prior to that I have been limited to about 25 FPS. I took out the PMDG 747 which is about the most FPS hungry a/c I own and flew a couple times around the pattern with it and FPS stayed in the 30's for the most part the whole time.
I'm guessing that for whatever reason, the DTX5 textures at that airport were giving me problems. Not sure why since FSDT and FT use DXT5's but at Nice X it was killing me. Maybe it was taking up too much VRAM, not sure, but now I can use the airport. It had been unusable for me for about a year and now that I got it working well, it almost like I just got a new airport to fly to, lol.
