Default OT New MS Flight Simulator

Unfortunately, even with the fastest computer, the frame rates on FSX
are not acceptable. In certain, high-graphics-intense situations, the
simulation becomes more of a slide show unless you turn realism
settings to unacceptably low levels.


Is this true even on your super-duper Kiwi?


Yep. FSX runs acceptably -- which is better than most people will get
-- but "acceptably" isn't what I'm looking for in a flight simulator.

FS2004 runs fantastically -- and that's what we're sticking with,
until further notice.
