I used it (again, after several years), and it worked superbly - again. Much smoother performance, increased fps. The bonus is that using his nHancer settings has improved graphics performance and appearance of a few other sims. And solved a significant previously insoluble problem with the new ArmA 2: tnear distance trees and shrubs were uniformly a sickly whitish grey regardless of nVidia card and in game settings. The FSX settings for nHancer corrected this problem - and improved frame rates.

Stormtrooper It is basically the same info but all in one spot. I used to have the multiple links in my Favs folder also until this one link panned out to be the best one stop shop. Sim It might help zero in on some help, if you'd post your system specs. FWIW Mine is a very first generation purpose built FSX machine that is for the most part all 2+ year old hardware. By using the tweaks from that post I have no complaints about how FSX performs or looks on this aging system.

How many add-ons do you have? Which add-ons? If you fly, for example, Vancouver+ you will get a huge framerate hit. Or Aerosoft's F-16. Other add-ons as well. Or if you have a lot of different add-ons in your folders.
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

So basically it's the same info you linked to, just all in one post? Yep. A quick glimpse also revealed some new extra info.
