OWEN LEE 1 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hi. I would be grateful if anyone could help me out with the best CFG settings for FSX SE, I have a high powered desktop but never seem to get it quite right with the tweaking I.E keep getting flashing textures ect ect so If there is anyone that is able to help me out I would be very much obliged. I've listed my PC specs below .

DaveCT2003 2553 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Try using only the HighMem Fix. You really don't need to run anything but that to have a smooth running system. You don't need to overclock (you probably know that) and I wouldn't with your processor ties to the 770. To qualify those statements, I've been doing FSX Tech Support for over 8 years. My very best wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWEN LEE 1 Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 Thanks Dave With regards to the HighMem Fix what numbers best to use as people have differing opinions. Thanks Owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveCT2003 2553 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 There is only "0" which is OFF, and "1" which is one. I'm not sure what other numbers you are talking about. Best wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 22, 2016 Aerosoft Share Posted July 22, 2016 Insert Highmem fix and don't try to fiddle with the cfg. We have really done extensive testing with identical machines next to each other and on a standard machine 90% of tweaks are snake oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWEN LEE 1 Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 Mathijs Thank you for replying along with Dave unfortunately I still have flashing textures, not sure what the issue is. Thanks Owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 22, 2016 Aerosoft Share Posted July 22, 2016 In our experience that is most often caused by incorrect cfg settings or by two scenery products that are not compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbliner 202 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Flashing textures also happen when an AFCAD file is made for FSX, and used in P3D. Anyway, as far as CFG is concerned, I have realized that every computer is unique. You really need to tweak around to find out what is best for you. Also, I have 4 different CFG settings files that I use in different contexts. 1. Flying during day, on VATSIM 2. Flying during night, on VATSIM 3. Flying during day, offline 4. Flying during night, offline That is how I get the best experience out of simulation. How do I handle so many different files with ease? Google: Aerosoft SimStarter NG.
