FPS Limiter to Reduce Stuttering

[Wolf_Rider]

present still would be shudder when flying over ground (Its an inherent fault with LCD screens, as any fps under the monitor refresh rate does this)

using the limiter to cap rate @ 60 is good (which the FSX problem was vga sync/ ingame sync wasn't working

Hi,

I know that option from my FSX days. FSX had this built in.

The idea is to limit the framerate to a playable rate, e.g. 30fps, where the system would normally do 60fps. This way, the system resources used to render the additional 30 fps can be used in advance for the next frames, giving you a better performance overall.

The fps limiter in FSX doesn´t work for me.

makes no difference with a LCD monitor... anything less than the monitor's refresh rate will have juddering on ground textures.

A lot of peoples' machines with FSX found it capable of getting far more than 60fps, yet ingame and vga Vsync didn't seem to work.

This has helped my system. It hasn't fixed it but certainly it has helped reduce a lot of my stutters. Low fps areas like over London are still low fps but without the big stutters. Other non low fps areas have become much more enjoyable to fly in now.
