The Windows Tweaks and the use of support software such as O&O Defrag that I listed in another thread That's not Aces fault and neither are the driver issues FSX displays right now. As soon as you boot FSX or FS9, or any other game in the list, the Nvidia drivers override the settings you made and change them without you knowing. Why? because if you don't, Nvidia driver profiles REMOVE your ability to change driver settings and FSX settings so no matter what you set in the drivers, Nvidia OVERRRIDES them and FORCES your card to run the way they want it to run, which is BULL on their part. Proper driver upgrades and proper setup of the drivers with Nhancer is a must! The raised the default to 4000000 in SP1. It will have an affect on the turns and panning smoothness but it does lock the video memory from using 5, 8, 10MB for anything other than the buffer cache so if you are short on video memory this may be an issue. This is another area you may wish to leave out or test.

A 256mb card may only be able to handle 5000000. Make sure you have the latest DirectX installed.

If you want the Acceleration SDK install it from the disk. Boot the sim and allow it to complete the install and boot the default flight. Install Acceleration which will install SP1 and SP2 automatically.

If you have the Deluxe version and want the SDK installed, install it off the DVD now.Ĥ. Install RTM, fire up the sim and let it complete the install and boot the default flight. The only tweaks that should be looked at are ones that are designed for dual/quad core, the light scale for the airports, the tweak which removes the sims ability to preload the default flight and only if the system is very slow, perhaps work with the added autogen lines, but otherwise Aces did a bang-up job of getting FSX to run without having to tweak the config as of SP2Īnd yes, a clean install getting rid of the old install and allowing FSX to update asĪces intended with SP2/Accell is the best way to go.ġ. Many of the tweaks used in the past, like what happened with SP1, are no longer helping the sim and in many respects cause problems. Yes, with the changes SP2 incorporates, you all need to be careful of editing the FSX.cfg file.
