FlightsWithJoel Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Flying with the latest update, I'm getting a 10 to 15 fps drop around the opera house and bridge. Frames are 10 less anywhere near downtown. Deleted cache, reinstalled, still the same. Worked great before the update and without the scenery installed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idaniel1983 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) Same here, down to 10fps over the harbour area and at the airport since the recent update. Same system spec as previous poster: RTX3080; i9-10900kf. Unlike most current sim limitations that are main-thread driven, this one seems to be caused by 100% GPU-load in the Sydney area Edited July 1, 2021 by idaniel1983 More details 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dow Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Don't think I saw this when I tested the update, but I'll have to revisit it. In the meantime I suggest you clear any scenery cache, and also files like content.xml etc. Pretty sure a quick search here will supply the names of relevant files and folders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Clarke Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I cannot replicate the fps loss with v1.1.0. While my PC specs are not as high as a couple of the users in this topic, I am still getting 45-50 fps in that area. As @John Dow suggests, a clearing of the cache and Content.xml may assist is revitalising the scenery to previously experienced fps rates. I use the Addon Linker facility which only injects symbolic links for addons into the Community folder so that all addons are not directly installed but go into a sort of Library which i call MSFS Addons. from that folder I add, via a symbolic Link, any addon I want to fly in that flight based on the region I am having a flight in. The bottom line is that I can move any copy I have installed in that folder to another safe location. In this instance I moved my v1.0.0 of Sydney and installed the newer update. By doing that it allows me to revert back to a previous version should any update to any addon prove to have any significant negative impact. In this case i found no adverse negative impact but understand some people obviously are. I give a full account of how this works in the link below: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same FSP drop problem on v1.1. The FSP is only 10 when fly close and over Sydney downtown area. Please fix it ASAP. Thanks a lot.

Kevin980 Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Would also just like to report an FPS drop since the last update. Seems directly tied to the new theme park area beside the bridge. But the new additions look amazing. But I think the new update is starting to reach people's limits on VRAM or RAM. Not quite sure what's causing the slow down.

John Dow Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Just flew all around the harbour and dawdled around the bridge and Luna Park and performance on my machine is first class. No frame rate drop, smooth as silk. I don't use scenery cache anymore, and recently I deleted all the suggested files such as Content.xml to refresh the sim.

It was up to > 20-25 as soon as I left the city center. This was under VR. All cacheing is off on my system Kind regards, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
