When I bought CYVR I already had a slideshow in the sim, NGX would run around 10-15 fps, even 8 at the heavy airports. Yes, sliders were all to the right
So I decided to do everything from scratch, reinstall and slow "retweak". now in C172s I have steady 30fps all around cyvr for example, same around klax, ksfo, kdfw, to name a few. NGX holds 18-23 in vc, spot 23-26, spot 27-30 fps. What really boosted my frames was setting bufferpoolsize to 0, affinitymask to 20 or 13, I set textured_band_multi to 90. that doesn't mean im done with testing
I will try to set the tweaks so that the sliders go as much to the right as possible without loosing performance.
Mind you, this is laptop, almost three yrs old, hp dv6, intel i7 2630 2 ghz, amd radeon 6490m, 4gb ram...
If you have any more suggestion, fell free to suggest them
