Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
I’m flying with the ATR in the Colombian region (Xbox/Xcloud), very mountainous and consequently intensive use of terrain radar. When taking off from SKCL (CALI) towards SKBO (BOGOTA) I noticed the simulator extremely slow, I even thought it was something serious, it was then that I had the idea to turn off the terrain radar and suddenly the simulator went out of the extremely slow condition . I partially solved the problem by going to the tablet options and decreasing the TAWS resolution to 50% (Radar Terrain Resolution) and it improved a little.
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
When I load the ATR I have a severe framerate dropdown from about 55 fps to about 15 fps. No other plane has this framerate issue.
Thanks for feedback and support.
Are you using DX11 or 12? I would be using DX11 if you weren’t already. All drivers need updated win10/11 and graphic drivers. Test with empty COMMUNITY folder!
I noticed the same issue. Flying into Kamloops BC (CYKA) was using the terrain radar to navigate the mountains in low vis. As soon as the radar begins to detect terrain, there is a massive 20-25 FPS drop. Happens every time it detects terrain. Switched off the terrain radar and the FPS immediately returned to normal. Approach with terrain radar off = +30 FPS. Approach with radar on = 17 to 20 FPS. All other settings and conditions (weather, approach and so forth) the same. Only difference is terrain radar on/off.
