Does the game crash or does the entire PC?

Thanks guys. Guess what i want isnt possible using normal FAF unmodded.

Is there a way to get carrier made units to auto launch or a key to make them launch? I know there is the button in the bottom left but that means i would then have to click on the unit to launch from the current location. Ideally, Id like carrier to act like a normal factory and just spew out aircraft once they are made. Is it possible?

My work laptop was pretty poor for FAF. I realised that:

• The GPU is crap and is a bottleneck. Runnng the game at 2k with all the settings on high is more than the laptop GPU could cope with. I watched the performance monitor and realised I had to drop the resolution and quality down.

• Even though the CPU might be good/okay if the cooling is poor, it will thermal throttle.

• RAM speeds can make a difference. Fast RAM works better and can give 10% gains in performance.

I'm currently in the process of trying to attach an external graphics card using a thunderbolt connection, to see how performance changes.

Might be a permissions thing. By moving it, it would get new NTFS permissions, inherited from the parent folder.

@Rowey Does that MOD change it forever or do you have to enable it as a MOD when playing the games?

@Leotar That flickering of the cursor in your YouTube video is the Nvidia issue. You can turn off the issue by:

press " ' " while you play. That starts up console.

Then type "d3dWindowsCursor". If you press "Tab" it will auto complete it. Enable the settings by pressing "Enter"

@IlGyn What happened when the game crashed? Did it just stop working? Is it a reoccuring issue? What were you doing when it crashed?

Try the d3dWindowsCursor command in console. That changes the NVIDIA settting so it's not an issue.

I have to buy a server for a customer and was looking at the CPUs. Your CPU has a poor per/thread score. The AMD Ryzen 5 3500U has a per thread score of 1,995. There are a lot of much older processors than yours that beat it. You CPU isnt bad, infact its good, just not with this game.

For reference, the laptop I'm running this on is a "Intel Core i7-8750H @ 2.20GHz" with a per core score of 2,352". Look in the CPU list below and sort by Per Thread.

There are a lot of really old CPUs that have great individual cores, just dont have that many cores.

@PoMMeS Glad you got it working. Interesting solution there. The ISP normally give you the cheapest box they can.
