What app are you using to get the memory readings? I just took a pleasure flight from San Jose to San Francisco as we have a winter storm coming. I turned the clouds up to Ultra and I am getting OK frame rates with the C-152 (and B-787) on my 8GB card.
I notice on my last screen shot at the United terminal it was using almost all my GPU. Unfortunately cannot put a bigger card on my Motherboard.
Thought I would add a couple more screen shots as the weather continued to deteriorate this PM and was my big chance to fly the ILS into SFO in a storm.
I was able to see the rain on the windscreen. FPS tanked on landing but came right back. I am pretty happy with this for a modest graphics card.
I have to file a formal bug on the cabin lighting… cannot read a thing.
What prompted me to check was I’d left the sim sitting idle for quite awhile. When I returned it was behaving very choppy with consistently even cadence.
I launched HWiNFO and checked GPU memory usage and noted it had exceeded my RX7900 XTX’s 24GB.
What was odd was when I quit the sim, the value didn’t decrease by all that much. I should have taken a screenshot of what it read, but it was very minor.
Rebooting the PC was needed to restore it to a very low idle value.
It’s a VRam bug nothing else.
Asobo has to fix this.
The sim has to controle the VRam use according to the installed value.
Even owners of graphic cards with very high amount of VRam has problems.
MSFS 2020 has not this problem even with ultra high settings.
Haha no! The alpha release was, as they told us repeatedly at the time, exclusively to gauge the resilience of the services in the face of actual player load. That turned out to be inadequate preparation for launch traffic.
This update has killed my performance. 4070 with 12GB, I was getting 35-50fps now getting less than 10 and it seems to be trying to use more VRAM than is available. I won’t be flying any more until this is fixed.
I am mostly flying airliners with glass cockpits. DLSS is really nice and I really want to use it, but my displays become blurry. A small issue but I just can’t stand blurry displays.
Terrible performance… stuttering is very annoying! No matter what configuration you put, the same thing happens! The worst thing about this is that we went through something similar to msfs2020 when everything was going well, they decide to release msfs 2024 (the problems begin) after a few years when we already have a stable and error-free simulator they go and release msfs 2028, the never-ending story
Yeah I copy that. Thought it was mostly my age, but my 3070 will just not handle the TAA, so I think I have to live with a touch of blur. I think if the contrast on all the buttons were properly adjusted, would help a lot. I filed a bug on the C-172 illumination today.
im on a 3060ti 8gb and 7800x3d 32 gb ddr5 and after latest updates from Microsoft my sim is running absolutely amazing on medium settings with a few changes. no vram problems at all anymore…
Noticed today a performance degradation over time (15 mins) just sitting at the gate doing nothing.
Immediately after loading no stutters and smooth experience.
After 15 mins of doing nothing stutters, bad latency times and obviously low fps.
It surely need a fix.
Anyway, this topic is marked as “hardware limitation” , is there any other way to tell MS/Asobo that despite their statement there is still a problem? Maybe a few tons of tickets on zendesk? @PILOTOWAWAWA@nikthetrip5023
It is clear there is something going on with time.
You can simply leave the sim sitting on the World Map doing nothing for an extended time and the same problem will occur. I did so, and immediately upon returning to the sim, clicking fly and entering the cockpit the strained VRAM performance issue was occurring.
I’m not sure how I turn down the graphic detail of the World Map to improve upon this…
Initially it was marked as hardware limitation. But in the livestream from last week people got “angry” on Twitch chat regarding performance issues with a even a 4090. Once they read these comments they were saying they would have a closer look into it.
