I know we have SU5 coming out on Tuesday and I know the FBW a320 can be awful for performance at times.
This, however was different.
I’ve just installed self loading cargo and it was the only way I knew something was up. The passengers started screaming. I went in to my sim to see the AP disconnected and I was unable to re connect. The aircraft was in a steep climb, hence the screams.
The sim was alternating between total freezing and FPS anywhere from 7 to 33. It went on for around 2 minutes. I’ve never seen anything like it before. Anyone any experience with this type of glitching?
The sim has since stabilised and I have regained AP functionality
It was my first flight since reinstalling the sim. Amsterdam - Keflavik and this happened over clear waters with zero around me. I also have multiplayer and AI traffic off
I’ve had it when leaving a flight on autopilot that I accidentally bumped the joystick, doing other stuff in the background… then without knowing the why, the autopilot would switch off (only later realizing I caused it myself).
Funny though that screaming passengers were your cue
I’ve been monitoring it for a bit. I have the nvidia overlay on displaying my FPS. That FPS number disappeared momentarily and the nose went up and down a bit. I have hands nowhere near and surface control input peripherals
Only thing I’ve encountered like this is the CoherentGTDraw bug … usually fixed by closing and then removing VFR map and/or ATC from the toolbar.
Otherwise, looks like something external is hogging computer resources. Could Self Loading Cargo itself do that? Not an add-on I use; don’t like my freight screaming
I get weird stuff like that from time to time. Nice smooth flight, and then all of a sudden I go from 34fps to 24 to 14 to 10 to 14 etc. When this happens I reboot the whole network modem router machine game and it goes away, Log files dont show anything going on strange (network logs, computer logs, and game logs), Ive pretty much boiled it down to network/server issues. I have a 120/12 connection and speed tests alway indicate that everything is normal between here and there, but without having server logs to look at, blaming the servers exclusively cant be justified. The fact that your VFR map was bugged seems to go along with these findings since you get all the data for VFR map from the outside world and not your computer.
If you have a second screen you can run taskman (performance tab) and the resource monitor and see what the networks doing on your machine, resource will tell you what connections are being made while your playing, you can do it on one monitor, but when you switch dont pause the game or it will invalidate some of the data your looking at since the game is paused.
I’ve taken the stock cooler off and ordered a water cooler unit. The machine is only 16 months old but I think a 3900X should be water cooled anyway so I took the plunge
