Obviously a flightgear specific benchmark could be much more suitable for flightgear than a generic gaming benchmark and much more helpful for people figuring out what settings are best for their systems, so what do you guys think of the idea? | Obviously a flightgear specific benchmark could be much more suitable for flightgear than a generic gaming benchmark and much more helpful for people figuring out what settings are best for their systems, so what do you guys think of the idea? | ||
I am totally new to flightgear and I haven't seen any indication that fg has a benchmarking system, so I thought that would be nice. I could provide/specify a list of settings and record some flights (if said feature exists), although I doubt I have the fg experience and authority to do so, so I hope you guys can sort this out- besides, a benchmark system should be pretty easy to implement compared to like say adding more realism/ better graphics/ revamping the engine, so I think that including a set of specific benchmarking tools and settings is plausible<ref>{{cite web |url=http://flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19202&hilit=benchmark|title=Flightgear-specific benchmark|author=Ericolon|date=Thu Feb 21, 2013 4:35 am}}</ref>|Ericolon}} | I am totally new to flightgear and I haven't seen any indication that fg has a benchmarking system, so I thought that would be nice.
