    I wonder if this is the problem I’m having with the NGXu… I had it on in 5.1 and then 5.2 I started getting the mad stutters in just the NGXu.  I also need to find the NA SoCal compatibility cause I have all addon airports and there’s some extra taxiway signs floating around 

    Just took the NGXu for a spin at Orbx KBUR w/ true earth socal. Stutter city. I mean BAD.

    After I had installed the True earth Northern California, I wanted to try and up my graphics settings to make the most of the scenery.

     

    I pressed the keyboard buttons to bring up the framerate numbers at the top of my screen. It always stayed near enough to 30 but I had bad stutters as I was coming in to land. After more googling I found some other forum threads saying that text at the top of your screen can cause stuttering in the latest version of P3D. 

     

    I havn't brought up any text since, and so far no more stutters.

    I never look at framerate counters anymore. I have a 144Hz 49" curved super ultra-wide monitor and I judge all performance based off overall smoothness. 

  3. So I am happy to report this has been resolved. Apparently this is a well documented issue discussed in the LM P3D forums. Its a native P3D issue and basically causes erratic and high CPU/GPU usage resulting in the stuttering. The fix? Right click the P3D desktop icon, click Compatibility, and check the box 'Disable fullscreen optimizations.' I conducted a test flight from Orbx's KSAN to FlightBeam's KSFO, flying over both TrueEarth Southern and Northern California. There was no noticeable stuttering like before...buttery smooth the whole way. There was some small stuttering approaching San Francisco, due to the scenery loading, however this is normal, nothing like before.

    Hmm. Just wondering, because I thought about upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1 but if that makes TE worse then I wait.

     

    But now you said you're coming from 4.5, that's another case. I got a noticable boost in performance from 4.5 to 5.0.

     

    Basically it's the opposite for me, had more problems with TE on 4.5, with blurriness etc.

     

    Did you ever check your scenery order and such things? May have impact on it if things are very wrong there. I would brute force some things, like shader deletion etc.

     

    I made some tests 2 days ago on KSFO, with the 787 from wings, with all west US TE add-ons installed. Got a whopping 50 fps on the gate (see pic below, left too is fps counter) in the cockpit. With the CRJ even more. Im flying there often.

     

    I don't think there is an overall problem with TE and v5. How things are with 5.1 i don't know though.

     

    If you need help with shader deletion and such things you can let me know.

     

    System again, 7700k and rtx 2080, 16 gb ram.

    I have a higher-end machine so P3D otherwise runs well on my system with most settings on the higher end. Everything was smooth everywhere in 4.5 and even smoother in 5.1 with DX12 support, except in one area...True Earth Northern California. Then as TE Southern California came out...nice smooth takeoff off Burbank then here we go again, max cpu/gpu usage as I pointed towards long Beach. Out of Frustration today I have come to the personal conclusion these scenery packages are too complex for today' PC's, I uninstalled both. Perfectly smooth performance now with normal GPU/CPU usage.

    Was this introduced with 5.1 for you? Works fine for me on 5.0. it has higher load of course, compared to open lc but it's not on 100, maybe 85, something like that. No blurriness.

     

    7700k on standard freq, medium to high terrain settings.

     

    Yes, I went from 4.5 to 5.1. Interesting enough, True Earth was running great on 4.5, and 5.1 was introduced as well as DX12 support, performance tanked. 

  6. P3d 5.1HF1, I have all the Orbx products for California. Also, I have Flight beam KSFO. Flight beams airports are highly performance optimized. After taking off out of KSFO, I get significant stutters. I have a 5.3GHz 8700K, 2080Ti. CPU usage at nearly 100%. I believe it may be true earth because I go somewhere dense such as Boston, where I have US cities Boston and Fly Tampa KBOS, I'm flying around at 60 FPS.
