What kind of framerate hit does the A2A spit have on the minimal to mid-range PC?

I have now got the cold start issue taken care of by reading the manuals. WinkNGrin The TIR3 FOV seems fixed so maybe the youtube vids are not really using it to get their wide FOV, bummer.


If you mean my vids, I had the aspect ratio set to widescreen in the cfgwhich gives almost a fisheye, have since gone back to normal as it looked a bit unrealistic and the canopy window in the spit is a bit glitchy in wideangle

BadBud, I detect minimal, if any, fps hits with A2A stuff, including the Spit.

I have an old laptop, and other than a texture lag when jumping back into the cockpit from an outside view (which I have with all A2A aircraft), maybe 1/2 to 3/4 of a second?, everything is very smooth.

Specs:
Quote:
Processor Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26GHz
Windows Vista OS Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with SP1
Hard Drive 320GB (7200RPM)
Screen Size 15.6" HD (1366x768)
RAM 4GB DDR2 667Mhz
Optical Drive DVD SuperMulti with Light Scribe
Direct Disc Labeling Yes
Graphics Card NVIDIA 9800M GS with 512MB GDDR3 VRAM


BTW, here is a "tweak" site that has worked WONDERS for myself and others in FSX. Best thing is it's automatic. Bojote's Tweaking and Tuning Tool for FSX

It's really magic, I went from stutters and unflyable to smooth as silk!
