I wish I had controls and a better computer than this crappy laptop.

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

What frame rate do you get on your laptop with slider at none and no pilot mesh?

Dunno, I don't have AH on it since I have no flight controls. Not flying with a mouse and keyboard.  :cry

I can give you a Logitech 3D if your computer gives you a flyable frame rate.

If you want, install AH, check out frame rate with slider on none, pilot mesh disabled, and the fancy stuff (lense flare, anti aliasing, etc.) turned off.  Also, can try texture size of 512.  And see what your frame rate is.

Start with default settings; then:
-- set slider to none
-- disable pilot mesh, reflections, shadows, and post lighting

Try (in "video settings" at startup of game), setting max texture size to 1024 or 512.

Then go into the game, get out onto the runway and see what your frame rate is.  Try firing your guns on the runway and looking around, and see what your frame rate is.

Can you let me know what it is?

I'm getting smooth performance, but I'll get you a number.

EDIT- I'm averaging 40 FPS.

Pfffft luftweenies!  Hi Dan.  If I brush enough rust off I might see about getting into a LA5.
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are.

Wow! A voice from the past.  Would be good to see you up, although you in an LA would no doubt increase the distribution of my cartoon airplane parts. 🙂
