Issue: Mouse lag when NPCs are spawning, PC freezes
Reason: The freezing occurs when NPC Ships are not cached by your Game.
Solution: One solution is getting more ram for your pc or simply “make it faster” by a faster cpu. Often it helps to defrag your PC on a regular base. Still their is no real solution for this Problam than putting as much as possible power to the Game. The Freelancer Community is working on a solution.

Issue: My Frames per Second are fixed to 60
Reason: Most modern grafic cards are using the vsync function to synchronize the frames per second with the Hz frequence of the monitors. 60 Frames per second means 60 Pictures are send to the Monitor. Modern Flatscreens do not use more than 60 Hz (the refreshes of the monitor per second) if in this case the grafic card is sending 60 frames which originally will be handled by the monitor, everything is good to go within your configuration. Serious, you do not need more fps than your Monitor is able to display as well as your eye is normally not able to see more than 18 pictures per second, while cinematic films are recorded with 25 pictures per second. For those of you who are going to benchmark their Game, you may switch of vsync in the settings of your nvidia adapter or use the ati traytool to do same same for ati manufatored chips. After it the correct fps will be shown.
Solution: not needed, everything is good to go.
