Increasing Frame Rates

Hi,

I recently tried something I had only ever tried once before, years ago, which was uncheck the High Resolution 3-D virtual cockpit option in FSX settings, after reading someone's suggestion on how to improve the frame rates on the Carenado B200.

The frame rates were really bad, probably below 10, and unchecking that option bumped the frames back up to 30 FPS. I know the Canberra uses really high res and even 3D gauges, so this might be an option if or when the frames go downhill. When I tried unchecking that option years ago it was in the default F/A-18, and I switched it straight back on because the VC textures were a blurry mess. With these newer aircraft that have extra HD VCs it is different. I can hardly notice the difference in textures in the B200, apart from zooming in the detail on the LCD screens is not as nice or as clear. The detail overall, though remains really crisp, and the performance is much better.

Cheers,
