Hint: 3jFPS-wizard

This is a very useful LUA script that adjusts LOD ranges for objects and clouds (almost literally) on the fly to attain a certain target FPS.
It does require a sensible base setup for the rendering options, but once you have that, the script very unobtrusively controls the datarefs for LOD ranges, cloud puffs, anti-aliasing, etc. to attain your target FPS. However, it's very configurable (by means of a setup wizard or total manual control) and easily adapts to your preferences.


I'm using it on my laptop to keep the framerate near 30, while on my desktop PC, it ensures maximum LOD range and cloud quality at FPS above 30.
By now, I'd consider it an essential add-on to make up for X-Plane's simplistic rendering option menu.
