Strange FSX stutter behaviour with NGX

Featured Replies

Guys, I am disappointed with my FSX. It gets stuck after exactly every 50 seconds for 5 seconds!. It will repeat again after exactly 50 seconds for another 5 seconds again and again. Apart from that issue, everything is fine.

Thanks Andrew, FSX folder is out of the main Window Program folder and I have tried to add exception from Antivirus and firewall.. Are there any other Security essentials apart from Firewall and exclude from Main window folder?

Do you have separate anti-virus software installed apart from Microsoft Security Essentials - MSE(The little green tent with a flag in th task-bar). You will need to put an exception in MSE too. Wasn't clear from your post. Andrew Vincent

Do you have FSUIPC auto saving every 50 seconds?

I do not have Microsoft Security Essentials. I have McAfee Total Protection which has overridden window security features. I have added exceptions under McAfee Firewall.

Yes, I have FSUIPC auto saving albeit on every 60 seconds, probably that's the cause. Let me disable and will revert.

I had exactly the same, but after switching avira off, there were no stutters anymore.

Guys! It is Bingo! Problem SOLVED.. the issue was FSUIPC Auto save. After I disabled FSUIPC auto save,, No more stutters.. Perfect flight. I would recommend for those who experiences Freeze to try disable FSUIPC auto save, could be one of causes..Thanks a lot Andrew and Di Agron!

Instead of disabling, you could set it to something like 30 minutes instead of the default 1 minute.

I have been working for 1 week trying to find a solution to this 1 sec stutter every minute in FSX. I found this thread and deselected auto save in FSUIPC and it's a perfect flight now!!! Frames at 120 in cruise with PMDG 737NGX.Thank you all
