FSX and autogen popping

I guess i am not the only one who always got annoyed by the massive autogen popping since RTM became SP1 and 2.
And i just recently gave up the hope, some magic would happen and i would recieve an email with the fixed code attached to it.

but....
i found a way to be happy again. My thought was: how could autogen become scenery. If so, it would not pop-up as massive as autogen and you could see buildings in the far distance, far out of the circle around the aircraft. just limited to the smallpartreject figure.

i tried to find a way to save the autogen while airborne...silly me.(but hey, i was really frustated).
in the end, all those weird thoughts and searches made me find a programm i should have remembered first caused i was using other software from this guy already.

Airbus X Extended fps "tweak"

For those of you who love the AXE (like me :-)) but don´t get enough fps....kill the view bars in the config panel right of the throttles...about 2-5 fps extra without them...
...unless you want to view the birds instead of flying a plane

don´t forget....use control + O for pan view....

i7 3770k Geforce Titan H100i


hi folks,
after struggling many years with the settings in fsx i had enough. 
first i tried bojote: shifted my fsx from no-go to not so bad anymore
then came Kosta: another move forward. even the best tweaks i came across. but his article about the gtx 580/680/Titan comparison infected my mind...
...and i went out to buy:

i7 3770k
Asus P8Z77V
Asus Geforce Titan
Corsair H100i

installed all addons i had (e.g. aerosoft airbus x extended; GSX; REX; FSPassenger; etc) and did Kostas Tweaks in the fsx.cfg. just for fun i turned all settings in the fsx to max....wow!!! finally 30fps stable in real weather or thunderstorm on maxed out airport settings and 80% woai traffic (all gates busy). 30fps up in the air with 2048 clouds no dx5. 
It's a real eye opener. finally fsx looks like it should have done all the way. I7 is overclocked to 4.5 and hyperthreading turned off. Geforce Titan has even standard settings. It flies through the clouds like it doesn't seem to care...30fps limiter on. amazing.
