• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FS2004 Flight Dynamics affected by Frames/Sec (FPS)?

Hello People!

You haven't heard from me in ages, but I am back in business, with an incredibly strange one, and for the obsolete FS-2004! I still support it, although probably for the last time! FS-202 up next!
While sending a new aircraft of mine for testing, one of the testers found that his gear was bouncing around from a standstill, until the aircraft self-destructs. Also, his pitch stability was lost past a certain airspeed.
We found that these problems occur only below a certain FPS (around 40) and then gradually worsen the less FPS there are (he is running Windows XP and 3 GB of RAM!!)
Testing on my system, I could reproduce the problem by altering my frame rate limiter. Indeed pitch damping decreased with FPS, and the gear dampers became a perpetual motion machine below 30 FPS....
(The aircraft is a tiny twin-jet trainer with a MGTOW of 2770 lb. TINY!!)

Any similar experience?
