What's wrong with FS2024 that drops FPS so badly?

Hello Simmers!
Today I made a FPS comparison of LOWI in both FlightSims - 2020 and 2024.

In FS2024 in LOWI with Cessna 172-G1000, runway 26, 14. July 24 at 15:30 clock, clear sky, HD-Resolution, live-traffic: off
I have the following FPS:
8-21 FPS, TLOD 100, rendering High, looking towarts the airport buildings

In FS2020 in LOWI with Cessna 172-G1000, runway 26, 14. July 24 at 15:30 clock, clear sky, HD-Resolution, live-traffic: off
I have the following FPS:
75 FPS, TLOD 100, rendering High, looking towarts the airport buildings

I got the same FPS drops in other handcraftet airports in FS2024.

My System is: i9 10850K CPU, 32 GB RAM, RTX 3070, Win 11

So I guess there is something wrong with FS2024. What do you think?

hi, would it be possible for you to post your fps counter while experiencing the issue in 2024?

Moved to User Support Hub as the OP is requesting community assistance.

Hi! Do you mean: show a picture of the fps counter or what do you mean?
I’m useing Shift+Z Stats fps counter, if you mean that.

i mean the in-game fps counter, you have to first enable developer mode in the options menu, then display fps counter, do it while experiencing the issue, take a screenshot and post it here

What resolution are you playing in? If it’s 4k it’s possible that your VRAM is too small and unfortunately this game doesn’t handle that situation particularly well sometimes.
And as already mentioned, please provide a screenshot of the ingame FPS counter

Hello again! I have to apologize because I can’t reproduce the results! This behavior of the Sims is a complete mystery. I’ve now got quite decent FPS values, see screenshot. I don’t have any more stuttering. Since I switched on developer mode, I’ve been getting acceptable FPS.

I think this thread can be closed or deleted.

that’s good to hear
if it comes back though, you know what to do, post a screenshot just like that one while the issue is ongoing
