Also, I have no choice to lock frame using 1/2 vsync in nvidia inspector, otherwise I get terrible screen tearing, even with x-planes internal lock

 

I don't use NVi, but the tearing can be stopped by putting vsync on in your nvidia control panel, NOT nvi. I think its under 3d apps tab, just set vsync on for xp10. No need for 1/2 refresh rate etc

I tried that, but when going from 30FPS to 60FPS its like the screen cant keep up and it judders?

So after further 2 days of testing every possible scenario. I can now go back to beta 8.

 

I have done this:-

 

Set standard 1/2 refresh rate using nvidia inspector, and enabled triple buffering. i set 'do not lock' in x-plane rendering settings.

 

To test I just flew a fighter jet over a major city where previously I had stutters even at 100knts. 

 

Now.....SUPER SMOOTH! like it used to be, not even 1 micro stutter. NOT ONE!

 

Whatever that triple buffering has done, it has worked a minor miracle. Now I can fly again. Smooooooth!

 

Thanks

Will try this, however, I HIGHLY doubt it has to do with the triple buffer, as it is a feature I am pretty sure X-Plane does not support.

 

VSYNC itself has nothing to do with the stutters.

Weird, because If I disable those settings, the stutters come back. leaving these settings enabled, and they go. So I don't know what's causing it, but I'm leaving those settings!

Then that's perfect. Will try it tonight but my hopes are low!

Let me know how you get on.

RC1 is here.

I think it may fixed it , as I don't get any CPU jumping anymore (it was happening to me for a few minutes when I start a flight and then gets stable , now it's ok)

Haven't tried Triple Buffering yet, but R1 seems to make the stuttering worse for me,.

+1 here, sometimes for a few seconds before returning to normal..

Stutters are severe for me and it really sucks. I tried close to everything, even removing all scenery. I get 60fps but stutters every few seconds, it's unflyable.

This needs more people reporting it, anyone else suffering with RC1?

Yes, same microstutter every 3 sec or so but very smooth in between. Was hoping RC1 would've ended that.

I have to say that after testing for about every possible cause, I don't think b8 or r1 cause the stutters. They seem to appear occasionally and might have to do with scenery, Windows, my system, nVidia drivers - I don't know, but it's not baked in X-Plane. It's hit or miss and hard to nail down. I got rid of them by resetting my NI settings (even though nothing was set basically), but then a day later, they were back. I believe they only appear under heavy load and daytime setting. But as I said, they're mysterious...

OK seems my stutters are back... I really have no clue, but I don't think it's caused by X-Plane settings (bus overload). I am thinking either mainboard settings or nVidia drivers, but as I said, I am basically clueless. They seem to get worse over time though.

 

Anybody else solved their stutters?
