Hi me John
I have just set up FG on a new laptop and loaded and installed whole world scenery from DVD, as I did on the old computer My old one is a basic HP pavilion g6 with an integrated graphics card, and I got only about 6 fps if I used max settings. I therefore set everything to minimum which gave about 10 to 20 fps flying the Cessna 172P or Piper Comanche.
The new laptop is MSI GE62VR with Intel i7, Nvidia GTX 1060 and 16 Gb of RAM. It has 126Gb SSD (C: drive) and 1Tb HHD. (D: drive named Data)
I now get 60 fps.
However, I get a message that the SSD if virtually full, and that this is a problem.
I checked the storage and see that the scenery is all on the SSD, while the HDD is virtually empty.
Never had SSD before so didn't stipulate which drive to load the scenery data to.
Can I - should I- move the scenery files to the HDD ? would that cause any problems, and will it effect the FPS, or does it not really matter anyway?
Presumably the data files should be on the data drive?
