captainwarez Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Hi Guys im in real need of help with this one! Im getting massive 1-2 second stutters around the cardiff airport area. im getting an average 30-40 frames but when flying around and on the ground parked while looking around i am loosing 50% of the frames for about 1-2 seconds at a time (frequency I would say every 10-20 secs) this happens even when flying away from the airport after take off and when flying to the area 5-10 miles away. Think it maybe related to how many graphical options I select in the Cardiff airport control panel. if I just select 'miscellaneous' stuff I'm ok, but as soon as I start adding everything else I am getting massive stutters. I already have damynes hall and stapleford airports maxed, although small airports in comparison these run smoothly without any problems. Running Prepar3d My CPU is an i5 and I have an Nvidia 970 4GB, SYS Memory 8GB Why do you think this area is causing so much stutter even when miles away? Really hope someone can help as its a beautiful Airport. Regards Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwarez Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 On closer inspection with all the graphical options disabled in egff control panel, i am still getting stuttering circling around the airport. Prehaps its a problem with the Wales scenery in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexandro Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Could well be a corrupted file, I would suggest running FTX central and making sure your up to date with your OrbX libraries. Then re-sync your products to see if there is anything amiss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwarez Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 iv tried all that am afraid. so deleated wales files in orbx folder and reinstalled/patched and then run latest libraries but problem is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwarez Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 The stutters also happen when on the ground in cockpit looking out the side windows outside with track IR even when the sim is paused? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwarez Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 just did a short hop from swansea to EGDX, 10-15 mins into the flight the stuttering started again ( Did some more graphical adjustments, and think i may have found where the problem is coming from. It seems to be down to the scenery complexity setting, anything above sparse produces the same amount of stutter 'But only in the roughly 10 mile radius between EGDX and EGFF. So im guessing the issue is with large Hangers/buildings ect.....If anyone would like to chime in with any ideas please feel free..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigwx Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Sorry, also no idea. But for comparison: in circut of EGFF rwy 30 with apx 13-16 FPS using P3D V2.5, I7 2600K, nVidea GTX 760. It is a bad value on my system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwarez Posted September 14, 2015 Author Share Posted September 14, 2015 tried a fresh reinstall of windows 10, reinstalled prepar3d and just the wales scenery, followed by latest library file when ran the wales patch. I am still getting massive stutters, big frames jump from 50 odd frames to 16 frames in cardiff airport and after take off. Can anyone from orbx please help! I dont believe its a windows 10 issue as i get the same issues with windows 7. The issue is ONLY happening within the Cardiff area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmorvay1971 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 What graphic drivers are you using? I have found that a balanced set of tweaks in the cfg file and using nvidia inspector (if you have an nvidia card). I too get stutters but after using an older graphics driver, the stutters are a lot less than before. -Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick M Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I've also experienced very poor performance at EGFF. Even with most of the options disabled in the configuration programme (this is something you could try Lee) frame rates were far from smooth. My suspicion was that the terminal buildings were just very polygon heavy. For instance, there's a beautifully rendered 3-D spiral fire escape from the control tower but God knows how many polygons it uses!

Pontiusthepilot Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Good Sirs I've experienced something similar. I get a massive freeze (3 seconds or so) crossing the coast of South West England around N51 degrees 14 minutes 80 seconds north. Then when I cross the coast of South Wales I have no detail in the scenery textures and little autogen. I accidentally removed the folder FTX_AA_EGFF and the problem went away, even though Cardiff Airport was left looking a bit strange. Could you all temporarily move FTX_AA_EGFF to a holding folder outside of FSX ot P3D and see what happens? If this improves things then we know that the problem lies with one or more files contained in this folder. Pontius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigwx Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Pontius, I've just started in EGFF, using FSX default c172 in P3D v3.1 to NW direction 3000ft, left turn 090° to Bristol, and have no problem, except frame drop down to ~17fps near Cardif airport. My FPS limiter is set to 33, and when flying over this sea (between Cornwall and Wales) I'm not below 29fps. Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
