Discussion + Poll: World Update V (1.17.3.0)

Nope. You are mixing up TJunction vs TJmax the latter being 110 Celsius for this CPU

Okay. Thanks for clarifying!

It’s is really a shame that Asobo/MS didn’t manage to get ANY DEM for Sweden as I know for a fact that there’s good DEM data avaiable. New DEM for Sweden was the most expetect update for the Nordic I was looking forward to whit this update so I’m extremly disapointed whit that.

I have to comment my own comment! I have now done some bush flying on the country side in Sweden and it is actually pretty good if you fly low and look down just below you. If you look into the distance the landscape is rather blurry.

Do somebody else notice the ghosted runways? :stuck_out_tongue:

Ghosted ? Could you mark it please ? In the image I see overlap (runways were placed over each other) and it is not properly blended, but “ghosted” is when it is unsharp, or when there is a shadow. I don’t see shadows, maybe it’s my resolution


You’re mad :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: cap your FpS on 30 or 50, better for your hardware
 the purpose is not to max out FpS, the purpose is to have a smooth flight.

Looks like Flightsim - 98, it is horrible.

The msfs never takes my temps that high, I was referring to stress testing with cinebench.

I’ve been bug-reporting that area since release, those reports even got a status of “solved” from Asobo, but still nothing got fixed. Bing actually have really good data of the area, but this has been replaced by a cloud texture.
And ESNZ / Åre Östersund suddenly got a big hole in the apron after the update.
Would’ve loved to see broken areas fixed instead of pretty much just POI’s

Send a request to Orbx :smiley:

Does anyone know what Airports are the new ones in this update, especially in norway?

They are all mentioned in the releasenotes and some users have posted them also on this forum. You can check the news topic from Jummivana of search the forum for it as I don’t have the topic ready right now. If you can’t find it let me know. Then I’ll search with you.

EDIT: found it for you:

I was also disappointed to find no DEM update. Was really looking forward to that. Sweden for some reason has always been a kind of black hole in the sim world. I asked about a mesh for Sweden on the Orbx forum but no reply yet.

Just some FYI, here, but I am experiencing most of my bottlenecks in the GPU in my lap-top. My CPU seldom if ever seems to be seriously challenged.

I typically loaf along at a solid 20FPS at 60HZ vert. refresh rate on my pathetic little 15" Lenovo lap-top screen. Trying to raise the cap to 30FPS brings stutters, jitters and just general overall pain to my flying experience in anything with a glass cockpit! :sob:

I hope that they are planning to reduce GPU loads somewhat, too!

The way to tell for sure what’s your limiting factor is to enable dev mode, open the build in frame counter, and see what’s limiting your performance. It will be main thread (CPU), GPU, or CoherentGT.

External tools can still give you an idea. But if you say your CPU is hardly used, changes are you’re looking at the total CPU load (typically low) and not looking at the individual threads. You should have one thread near 100% at all times (main thread), another 4 at medium load, and the rest only used by system background resources.

In my case performance is better after windows update KB5003690 :smiley:

WHats going on ?
I got the Update 1.17.3.0 back on 6/17/21

Been flying most days since then.

Then this afternoon, I get an update saying it’s also 1.17.3.0 again, (but smaller).

Did they sneak a Hot-Fix in for something, without saying what it was ???

I suggest you follow this thread:

I’ve been using the Game Bar performance option to watch my FPS, etc. I took your suggestion, though, using the Developer’s Mode.

The following screen capture shows my performance a few seconds after take-off from London City Airport, a very resource challenging place for my system. Live weather, photogrammetry, multi-player, etc. etc. everything turned on.

Would appreciate hearing what you think.

Eventually, I will upgrade my system!
Getting ready to move soon, and don’t expect I’ll be simming for a few months afterwards.
