Hello everyone,

 

I know that this subject has been adresses hundreds of times but i still i cant find any way to eliminate stutters in fsx even if i have great fps. My fps are locked internally at 30 and i have 1/2 refresh rate vsync with Nvidia inspector. I tried a few teaks to get ridd of those nasty stutters but nothing really worked for me. I also know that each case is different, thats why i am linking here my specs and my cfg. If any body have an idea about how to eliminate or decrease the stutters i would be eternally greatful.

Have a nice day !

 

Specs: gtx 660

            i54670k 3,4ghz OC at 4,4ghz

            8g RAM

            windows 7 64

Edited March 2, 201511 yr by n4gix
Placed cfg file in a Code Box

A quick look ... personally I would suggest your graphics card is choking with your setting of texture max 4096... , you could try to reducing this to 1024 or 2048 - as well,  your OC may be too much for the card so you could adjust your OC from 4.4 down to something your graphics card can handle via the Bus

I can see a number of things in your CFG that may be causing this.

 

Try deleting your FSX.CFG file (you can back up first if you wish) and FSX will create a new one when you load FSX.

 

Then close FSX, edit your FSX.CFG to put back ONLY the following:

 

[GRAPHICS]
HIGHMEMFIX=1

 

WideViewAspect=True

 

TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024  (should be there, and you can move to 2048 or back to 4096 later after testing).

 

[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=14 - This is okay, but you might first try not using an Affinity Mask setting.  Let me know if you Stream your flights and we can work on the best settings for you - IF you actually need to use Affinity Mask (again, you may not).

I recently had a similar problem which i was able to solve by finding out the right

balance between Affinity Mask and Bufferpools/reject threshold setting.

Below is how i set mine and it is working very well.

 

Give it a try!

Tom

Thank you all for you very quick answers I'll try the few things you suggested. Hope something will work for me

 

Then close FSX, edit your FSX.CFG to put back ONLY the following:

 

[GRAPHICS]

HIGHMEMFIX=1

 

WideViewAspect=True

 

TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024  (should be there, and you can move to 2048 or back to 4096 later after testing).

 I tried just that but it seems that my fsx suffers from even more stutters after it :(

Is it possible that I have to entirely reinstall FSX and all my addons for the stutters to be gone ?

Lateros,

 

Here is what I done.

 

1-Start FSX

2-Open Task Manager

3-Open Processes

4-Find fsx.exe*32 file and right clik on it

5- File Location page will open

6- Find "Set Affinity" click on

7- Which processors are allowed to run "fsx.exe*32" will open

8-Check only "All Processors"

9- 0-11 CPU will have the check marks

 

Close it and go fly.

 

THis is worked for me. It may not  work for you,so be carefull do at your own risk.

I tried but all of the UC were already checked

Did you noticed  what % Load you have in CPU "0" in Task Manager?

Did you noticed  what % Load you have in CPU "0" in Task Manager?

 Its around 20 to 30%. The three others are going up to 100%

Lateros,

 

There is an interesting topic is going on  at .  Avsim The Prepar3d General Forum

Am i GPU Limited?

Started by 331BK, Yesterday, 02:12 PM

 

Regards.

Someone told me that wanting to achieve LOD radius=5.5 and bufferpools with a GTX600 is madness. Do you think i may have to get at least an other bufferpools setting for my GPU ?

 

Regards

in FSX set frame limiter to unlimited and set 30 fps limit in NVI plus vert. sync. - 1/2 refresh rate ( i assume that ur monitor or tv is refreshing with 60Hz )

Can you 100% confirm that you renamed your fsx,cfg and rebuilt a new one? If its still stuttering after that then probably a reinstall ...I feel your pain I just did it with a full reinstall of win7as well and that made an unbelievable difference as you would expect

As I suggested earlier, it cannot harm your system if you drop your overclock from 4.4  and try 4.2 or 4.0. Your 660 Card could be  choking at the bus with your high settings in the FSX.CFG file and that overclock. While others may disagree, have a look at the video Cards section of Nicks Bible - It doesn't mention your card specifically, but you can glean a lot from the article.. you can find the bible here;
