I am just getting back into sims after long time off, and ran into this problem. I am assuming there is a really simple fix for this but, I have no idea what it is. Thanks, Pat

What are the rest of your system specs. You can lower track and world detail, reduce the # of cars etc etc. dave henrie

I believe it maxs out at 30-32 fps, if thats what you're getting thats all there was, IIRC. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Pat Murphy <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I am just getting back into sims after long time off, and ran into this > problem.

The game is capped at 30 fps. I have also noticed that in the cockpit view FSAA will really drag down the fps. In the chase views its fine. I'm guessing that it has something to do with the dash overlay. MadDAWG
Where on earth did you come up with a FPS cap? This isnt GPL. I ran N3 with a Celery 566 OC'd and a GF2 GTX just fine at 40-50 FPS.. Sounds like he configured for the software renderer. Mitch "MadDAWG" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I'm scratching my head on this one. I guess I was thinking of N4. Oh yeah, N3 was the Celery 300a/V3 OC'd LOL. Dam alzheimers vbg.. Mitch <<<<--- having a really bad week heh..
