Adelaide, South Australia
Having made a huge investment over the past years I decided I would re-install all my software and add ons onto my new PC. I have done this twice, the first time I had continued CTD's so I offloaded it all and reinstalled.

I have FSX SP2, FSGlobal 2010, about a dozen or so Newport photo-real sceneries and 5 of the ORBX FTX regions installed plus some of the airports. I do not have FTX Global or FTX Vector. If I set the scenery to FTX Oceania in my control panel and fly from Port Lincoln to Adelaide then I start to get stutters over my Adelaide photo real scenery. If I set the scenery to FSX default in the control panel then it is silky smooth. What can I do about this? I was thinking of disabling Add on scenery and just using FTX but the Adelaide FTX scenery is nowhere near accurate and there is no FTX city scape available for Adelaide. Any ideas would be appreciated thanks.
 
My specs are an i5-6600 CPU 3.30GHZ machine with 16gb of RAM plus an 8gb Nvidia 1060 video card.

Down under in Adelaide
Yeah the Adelaide scenery with just FTX is really lacking. When I moved to Adelaide I did a Strathalbyn-Aldinga-ADL flight but was so disappointed by the look of it that I never flew around this area afterwards. How are you finding that newport scenery for Adelaide?
The FTX stuff is already a bit more taxing that default scenery for sure, but I remember flying over photo-real sceneries of NS combined with FTX NZ and it was all smooth. Have you tried dialing back a bit on the FSX settings?
