FSX. cfg tweak guide C Aviationfsx. FSX performance and solve common issues. Explanations of FSX tweaks and configuration suggestions. Necessary obligatory tweaks modifications. UIAutomation. Core. You need to download it an place in your main FSX folder to prevent OOM errors among others. Not necessary in FSX Steam Edition. Highmemfix1  place under GRAPHICS headline in your FSX. Fix required for correct memory addressing during texture loading helps prevent OOM errors. Not necessary in FSX Steam Edition. Not a tweak per se but I feel it is important to mention that you need to have a proper FSX version installed. That means FSX with SP1 and SP2 installed in this orderFSX with Acceleration pack service packs included do not installFSX SE Steam Edition service packs and Acceleration included do not installAds and your donations help pay for keeping this site online. Thanks for your support Other tweaks. All other fsx. Fsx Airport Scenery LightsFsx Airport Scenery LightsSome may improve your performance or quality. There are some outdated tweaks  leftovers from earlier version of FSX SP1 or base version without any Service Packs or even earlier version of Flight Simulator. FSX Settings vs fsx. I will indicate in this guide which values change positions of sliders in FSX settings. Be aware that changes in FSX settins may overwrite your fsx. In my opinion its best not to use FSX display menu at all. Ads and your donations help pay for keeping this site online. Thanks for your support It is a simple configuration file that uses single line commands containing a name of the setting and value with character in between. Section headers are wrapped in square brackets. For example GRAPHICS. Double slash marks comment a part of line or the whole line that will be ignored by FSX. Your fsx. cfg may include more lines that I described here. I omitted elements that should not be edited and some that are not relevant to performance and graphics. Tweaking the general idea and procedure. As I already wrote  make sure that you have SP2 or Acceleration or FSX SE installed. Add UIAutomation. Core. dll to your FSX folder. Then navigate to your fsx. Then you may proceed with obligatory HIGHMEMFIX. Now you are ready to start tweaking and testing your FSX. There are no settings that are always correct Remember this. Of Mice And Men Themes. Use settings that are appropriate to your setup Hardware  FSX  Add ons. Different add ons planes, sceneries, even weather settings may require different tweaks and different configuration. All your tweaks and settings have to be adjusted to your personal preferences.

Classic Scenery Classic Airport Scenery List. A list of all airports available as classic scenery. How to organize your Scenery Layers It is important that you. Brisbane-International-Airport-Scenery-fsx1.jpg' alt='Fsx Airport Scenery Lights' title='Fsx Airport Scenery Lights' />Fsx Airport Scenery LightsSome people will be ok with 2. Others will settle with lower quality and constant 3. My personal preference is to keep the highest quality that will allow at least a stable 1. I use at the moment. It means that I have constant 3. I have no stutters in this difficult part of flight. You need to consider VAS virtual address space. Too much scenery or autogen objects may cause OOM out of memory error. The same may happen when loading a large number of high quality textures. Currently I am using several fsx. I use, plane I fly and textures that both plane and scenery use. Test, test and once again TEST It is a process of trial and error. Use this guide and set your FSX. Then test it. Then tweak it again and test. If you see improvement use your new settings. If not try something different. Even if you have a perfect set of tweaks do a small change from time to time. And let it work for a few days. Maybe it will be better. Do a long test. It is hard to test tweaks in a single flight. Even if you have a test flight same weather, airport, plane, date, time of day, traffic you may see different results with no change at all. You may see improvement even if the long term change is for worse. So do not trust a single test unless the difference is obvious and very strong. FSX setting first FSX. Some fsx. cfg settings may have higher values then full right position of a slider in FSX settings. From what I observed these are LODRADIUSTEXTUREMAXLOADclouds settings. That is why you should not do any changes in FSX display settings after you set this values in fsx. How I described this tweaks. The following guide will follow my fsx. I put section headers as text headlines bold font, square brackets. Settings and values will be placed under their sections. My comments and the meaning of each setting will be place after comment mark. If an option is written behind a comment it is not included in my fsx. I do not use this option. I placed it in this guide only to explain why. Some tweaks are or will be explained in detail in another article. There will be a link to this article look for arrow character. Effects on performance. Settings that heavily affect FSX performance are red. Setting that somehow affect FSX performance are orange. Settings that slightly affect FSX performance are green. There is no sense in placing gray settings in your fsx. These may be neutral or harmful. Black settings do not affect performance. Suggested values. When you see the values this are my current settings for my FSX Acceleration with payware planes and sceneries, Active Sky Next weather, REX Direct sky textures, REX soft clouds, EZDOK camera for controlling views.

Marsh Harbour is the third busiest airport in the Bahamas, and now has a new runway, a new terminal, and the addition of a control tower and fire station. Completion of scenery for Marsh Harbour has been delayed since beginning work on the Bahamas airports due to construction and a long delay in opening the new facilities, which occurred on May 2. There are currently no plans for opening the control tower, and it is not operational in this scenery. The scenery includes custom scenery objects, placement of library objects and landclass changes. Scenery is based on Google Earth and photos taken locally, and it is optimized for use with UTX TAC. Some scenery details have changed from what is shown in screenshots included with the installation package. By Art Poole. Posted Jun 3.
