Test flight

[Jimmy]

Its been almost a week since my last flight and can't even remember the last time I flew higher than 10,000ft

so now that iv almost got my fs set up with a few scenerys installed and this lovely freeware dash8 from avsim I decided to go for a quick flight from NZMC-NZCH.

I'm using this as a test flight for my new pc, see how the fps are.


early morning at mount cook.


leveld off at 11,000 for cruise to nzch


shut down at NZCh (as soon as i switched to spot I got a building crash )

I also flew a DME arc wich was alot of fun in the low vis.

I had very bad frames on t/o and about 11 on climb, 20-25 at cruise.
Final app was awful with a 10fps

I was prety happy with the performance tho, I had traffic up full and 3d clouds! what more could I want
i hope getting more RAM will incress my load times and fps

yea, i was uesing the "gray and raining" weather theme. wich has alot of clouds.
I found the frames droped as soon as I got out of the cloud (In both 2d and 3d panel).
