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.

Seems to work, gonna have to tweak the settings a lot though.

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?

EDIT- I'm averaging 40 FPS.

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. 🙂
