What’s an affinity mask? Well, prior to the UK update, I don’t think I get as much stutters as the current one, but my overall FPS is actually lower than current. The current stutters are still there, but it’s much more managable.
Before the hotfix, the stutters was so bad, it really throws off my flare timing. Like this one:
But this is the performance before the UK update:
And yes… I have a recording of every single one of my flights. Precisely for this purpose. Review and analysis.
So I did another few testflights with the CJ4. Departing KBOS, all fine around 50fps all on ultra and very smooth. Counter showed GPU limited and the GPU was way up in the 90ies. I went out on the ocean at 20’000, came back and made an approach to KBED. At about 7’000 the stuttering kicked in. CoherentGTdraw all yellow, now limited by mainthread and it plunged to about 10 - 15 fps and did not recover.
I then did another short pattern flight from EDDF (which was stutter fest before the 14.6.0 patch) and it was all smooth. Same experience in the LSZH area.
Is it just me or does it seem to be less pronounced in central Europe than in the US?
Anyway, I really don’t wanna chase FPS, but the US is kinda not flyable for me at the time. I guess I’ll fly a bit more in my home region Europe and see how it goes. But it’s definitely not fixed for me.
I was getting the 100% cpu ‘bug’ killing defender brought the cpu back down to 40-50%, now the only time I hit 100% on the CPU is when its loading into an airport, once in we’re back to normal.
Keep in mind, if your running newer incarnations of win10 its a real PItA to disable defender, MS doesnt want you to do it. In win10 pro you can use the policy manager to do it, but if your on Win10 HOME you have to regedit to disable it effectivley.
If your running HOME and you kill Defender, more then likely you wont be able to revive it without doing a reinstall of win10 (theres a slight chance you can undo, but from what I read those are far and few between).
Do you have any software running for say like your keyboard / mouse / headphones … Try killing those in the system tray and then launch and see if it gets better before even thinking about killing Defender.
Disclaimer: While this worked for me, I do not suggest disabling Windows Defender. You do so at your own risk. Such activity could result in loss of life.,… hehehehe
For those with “stutters” try this.
Remove folder fs-base-nav from folder …\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore
Restart the sim and let it re-download. Got this information from another forum and it helped a user with similar problems.
I have reinstalled yestzerday until today the whole Simulator and it dosen’t helped. I get and got always these stutters and low fps near big Airports or huge citys or areas with a dense publication.
After unnecessarily looking for errors in my PC (Ryzen 5 3600, RTX 3060, 32 GB RAM), I found this…
Stuttering in some places is caused by poor processing of distant terrain objects.
My video shows what’s going on (I recorded it in Develop mode with LOD debug turned on, High mode with TLOD 200).
Stuttering of aircraft movement is associated with the display of distant objects on the horizon.
On the develop FPS display stutters corresponds to errors of manipulators.
You can only slightly reduce the problem by setting a lower TLOD value (10-80).
premium deluxe version on steam. I only got a 120ish mb in game update on friday. When I alt tab the correct version is showing on the top bar but the Sim runs like utter ■■■■ still. About mid way through the pre startup process sitting at the gate at KIAH in the CRJ the frames randomly drop down into the low teens still. Is there another step I’m missing? This is so infuriating
i7 10700K
32GB of RAM
RTX 3070 OC
Mix of high and ultra 1440p with Air traffic and photogrammetry turned off.
I didn’t have stutters and tried out removing fs-base-nav, thankfully I saved it somewhere else. It updated and I had the repeat of the SU3 bug. High manipulators and crushed FPS. I replaced the file and all is well, except… My live weather is busted again. Only works first time around. Has to be a server thing. But it’s been a bit since I’ve taken a second flight (If i can play without CTD) Ah well, back to REX weather
In general a big improvement, but I have to restart the game before every new flight as the game does not seem to clear the RAM memory in between flights.
I’m having this same issue. It’s been a problem since day one. The latest update (1.14.6.0) fixed the general poor performance (4fps) but the micro-studders are still an issue. You can really see the issue when on final approach and zoom in to the terrain, without panning the camera around. I hope it gets resolved soon. I can’t wait to see what it’s like to fly with perfectly smooth graphics.
