FSX tweaking/tools etc...

Post by Thaine » Sat May 02, 2015 10:12 am

FSX is old and a bitch with regards to performance, but there's some room for improvement. I'm not aware on how much can be done with FSX-Steam. So these links apply mostly for the old FSX.

For all kinds of information I can recommend avsim.com. This is one big flight simulation community forum.

Here are some links for setup and tuning of FSX:

I would consider trying this out if my time wasnt already pulled in too many directions as it is.
A little bit of smart is much more effective than a lot of stupid
