Has anyone been encountering touch down stutters recently with any aircraft at any airport?
My flights are smooth but upon touchdown I’m getting a 1 to 2 second stutter at times after the most recent update.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks

I’m on SU15 and it used to work just fine. But recently I’ve been getting a huge pause every flight as soon as the main gear touches down. Tried this: Freeze/Lags while touchdown - but fps around 50 while approaching - #32 by eduio13 and still no results.
Very frustrating.

its a strange bug … there is exactly the same issue in the SU 3 Beta in MSFS2024 … maybe Asobo used a “coding techique” in both MSFS Generations which has this outcome ?!

It’s rather recent, I’ve flown a lot before and never had this problem. But every time now, I get the main gear down and just freeze for 4-5 seconds before unfreezing and resuming my landing.

Yeah, I hadn’t seen this before either. If they’re porting things over from FS2024 it seems that bug came along as well… it’s quite frustrating and I thought it was my PC.
I’ve reinstalled everything and reset BIOS as well.
I wonder if there’s more to the change logs than we’re being told.
Microsoft/Asobo please fix this, it breaks immersion completely on landing.
Thank you.

Yeah, same here! I’m on final approach and there’s a big stutter and when the wheels hit the ground it’ll freeze for 2-3 seconds then resume the roll out… I’m like what gives.. my PC is tuned for max performance already, I can’t push it any further and this wasn’t happening before, so I don’t think it’s hardware related.

Yep, same as SU3 beta in the other one. Relatively smooth flight, if you can manage to get into a smooth flight to begin with - and then stutters and fps slowdowns, frame lag, etc. upon touchdown. More noticeable in the larger bespoke airports with live traffic around.
I’m going to test it later today and try disabling, one by one, the most recent additions to my sim rig: Volanta, BeyondATC, ActiveSky, etc. I have been using those last two for a long while, so I don’t think that’s the issue, but Volanta may be the problem. I will write back here once I have figured it out.
I don’t think so. I’ve seen them and don’t use Volanta.

Whoop, there goes my optimism 
I want to get to the bottom of this. If we wait for the dev team to, we’ll be here for the next year.
I hope I get good results…

This is a known issue by the devs.

Can you point me to where they say that they know about this please?

Well, after a few test runs, during which I established it is not Volanta, nor SimFX by //42, I got lucky and found GSX to be the culprit! Can anyone confirm this?
I need someone here to confirm that GSX causes these issues, and then I can show these test results to Umberto.
It must have been something in the last update…

I am having trouble with crashing or suffering on the Xbox series for sim update 13 Beta?
To know something is not a guarantee to get it fixed. .some of the “known issues” will celebrate their 5th birthday thiis August.

Using GSX here, but not seeing those stutters.
I’m going to try… I really do believe the problem is coming from a recent GSX update and not from my end, so I won’t let him tell me that it is my fault. As of yet, he hasn’t responded, but I found a whole thread on his site of precisely this issue… GSX Causes Touchdown Stutter
Just confirm: are you on V3.5.6? That is the build I am using. I tried a full GSX reinstall and still the same.
