WU 1.17.3 Stutters and drop in FPS

Bug Reporting Hub Install, Performance & Graphics

Hello

I have been playing for several hours now and I am getting huge stutters and pauses and low FPS all over the place.
No specific spot that I can tell…Seattle, Scotland, Norway, South of France. I get a drop from 40/50 FPS down to 1 to 3 FPS…then it creeps up to 10, then back to about 30…which is 20 less than I hot before the WU.
This is very disappointing - did not have it this bad in previous updates and I don’t understand why a WU has impacted my performance. All community mods off. took out the Zinetertek enhancement mod - no difference. Tested setting, don’t have caches.
1/10 for this update for me personally - due entirely to the very sudden and severe impact on my performance. Flew around Norway like a slide show at times.
I love MSFS, this is a shame.

Try this,

Had weird problems after the last update. Kept getting a message about packages not being downloaded. I had a big procedure to go through to smooth it out, but I discovered that after I load FS for the first time I log out and then I get a message to hit any button to restart and I log back in and the game runs really well. All big stutters are gone. Why? I don’t have a clue but it seems to work for me.

Give it a shot. YMMV
