CPU (even Core0) is clearly below 90%, GPU is below 20%, but Ethernet is very often at 100%. Internet Speedtests proofs 50MBit+ available. At ground FPS was below 2FPS. Airborne i am now at lousy 25FPS and Cologne is already 20 miles away.
DevTool says: “Limited by MainThread PC D3D12”. What does it mean? It all started after scenery update western europe yesterday. Its unflyable actually!
RTX4070Ti, Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 64GB RAM DDR5, SSD and NVMe M.2 SSD.
And i am flying PMDG 737-600 right now. No extra scenery for cologne just default.
I use DX12. Is that a fault? And why does it started right after the recent update?
I also use GSX Pro, FSLTL. But i did not change the settings there. It started yesterday right after the new update.
And why is me Screen Res 2560x14440 but DevTool says Render: 1280x720?
Now i tested flying a jet at mach1 starting EDDH (Secenery by Sim-Wings + Addon Scenery from Flightsim) and the difference is significant. Hamburg with Jet and even higher settings (all ultra) better FPS than Cologne, Geneva and Rotterdam with little lower seetings (mostly high) and a 737. Could it be possible that Asobo messed something up with that new update?
Cologne has been terrible for me since well before the last update. Especially in a more complex and/or faster aircraft. You could be on to something about DX12 though. Have you tried in DX11?
I can’t get to my PC for a few days but I will try that also. DX12 is generally better for me these days but yeah Cologne (+ large area around) is real bad. Rotterdam was OK after I removed Mamu Powerlines though.
Whole Rurh region is very demanding in terms of scenery as many cities and medium size towns are one next to the other during miles and miles away in the whole area. Cologne in particular has two big airports at around 30nm away: Cologne and Dusseldorf. Both are most likely loaded at the same time if you fly over the city. It´s therefore one busy node for traffic as well. And to make things worse there are still several medium size ones in range as well.
Since update it seems nearly everythings got worse. Just tried LA which is usually quite a lot of fun. 5-10FPS at start and i just shut down the sim. That way its not gonna work at all.
Now i just wanted a nice fly around LA (without GSXPro and FSLTL tbh i forgot to start both of them). But the stutter trouble goes on. 5-10FPS on ground and i just shut down the sim. That way its useless to fly anymore. I am extremely frustrated. I spent round about 1000€ to get the actual setup and the MSFS didnt thanks at all.
Here are my settings for graphics. Btw Rotterdam looked ugly when flying fast. The buildings were at ultra settings just looking like mud!
After i created a new rolling cache (50GB at NVME M.2 SSD device) the temps were over cologne not higher than 82°. Before using this PC i made several test e.g. Prime95 which were no problem.
The CPU was always green to yellow. Guess red is possible too.
