Flight Sim studdering when mini screen displays frightened passangers. - ALANKUSA - 12-07-2005
Just wondering what is going on with this.
Whenever I encounter turbulence the frightened passangers display their responses in the mini window. This causes a momentary
freeze and studdering effect. Once they calm down and go back to normal the studdering stops.
Any ideas whats causing this to happen?
Thanks

Probably a framerate issue.
Use SHFT+Z (press twice) to display the framerate. If it's less then 15 FPS, your eyes will see the frames changing. 15 or more and you will never
notice the difference.
If you are less then 15, I would recommend reducing your display settings a bit.

That does prove if nothing else that FSP is using significant system resources, see my thread regarding FS2004 crashes and lockup
while running FSP.

What does, that it's jerking????
For the record, I beta tested FsPassengers on two systems:
Toshiba, Tecra S1 notebook, 1.5Ghz Centrino, 512 MB ram, 32Mb ATI video card, Win XP Pro Sp2: FsP lowered my FPS by 3 with the mini-display on and 1
with the mini-display off.
PC, 3.0Ghz, 1Gb Ram, 128 Mb ATI video card, Win XP Pro Sp2: FsP lowered my FPS by 2 with the mini-display on and no difference with the mini-display off.
If you ask me, the Fs2004 ATC window and the GPS are killers. FsP is not.

Big Vern,
If this influences frame rate performance, one would have to know all the details about the system I would think (hardware and software
running at the time) to come to such a conclusion.
I personally haven't had a change in FPS after I added FsP to my system at all. Which I should have if it would be using significant
resources. So I doubt this is the case.

the mini-display is know and have shown some framerate issue on *some* machine,
this is not code related (I tested in run in less than microsecond) but more with the display
of the windows when it's refreshed and only on somes hardware....
this happen only on somes system, I got 0.2FSP on my old system but somes with high end
system saw 20FPS drop
The fact the FSP drop only when they are feared is becasue the mini-display is refreshed often
due to change in number...
This is stated in the doc section 11 "performance concern" or such
solution: is this is really annoying enable the mini only when you need info
(CTL+SHF+V to switch on/off)
