ASN fps drop in dense clouds.

Featured Replies

Hey guys

So I had just finished a flight from Vancouver to Toronto in the pmdg 777

 

Now I have not encountered this problem before.

 

Fps was dropping from 30 to 22 stuttering through dense clouds on the Toronto area on approach.

 

I am using 4x sgss with 3 cloud layers and mod settings in ASN

 

Once flight was finished I closed and fired up p3d again without asn and set up weather scenario with dense clouds and flew into it and I ha no fps drop whatsoever.

 

Your replies are appreciated..

 

Thanks

Mike

  • Although REX isn't the root of all evil. Both REX and ASN are just trying to work around some significant changes that allegedly have been made by LM for the current 3.2 release of P3D. No official st

    I found that disabling volumetric fog helped my FPS to be playable in dense cloud situations. Also, gave my proper blue sky back.   Take it with a grain of salt though. I haven't done much testing t

    Volumize works - thanks for that but clouds definitely dont look as good either - its all good - nice to have options at the moment I am using  //

I noticed this right after the latest update. I dropped to 12fps at one point. I assumed it was my old 670 churning to stay above water. I lowered SGSS to 2x and played around with sliders to get a good 30fps again. I understand I'm not going to get much with my system, but 12fps is ridiculous with a relatively mid-tier setup and most settings at a medium level.

I think it may be the update 5921

. I thought maybe updates running in background but nothing was running and I have automatic updates switched off.

I ran a scan also for anything malicious, nothing.

 

And I am running 2 Titans sc in sli

I'm baffled

I noticed that ASN is using more and more cpu cycles the longer the flight. When I load the situation, ASN is using 0%, after half an hour of flight, that number wioll go to 4-5%, with very nasty induced stutters. Right now I'm fed with it, back to OpusFSI. Can't imagine what situation will be after an hour or two long flight with ASN?

Since I just completed a 4 hour flight with ASN in heavy weather, I can say I had no problems at all. If you're getting strange results, I suggest opening a ticket at Hifi - they have excellent support and will usually ytrack down the problem quickly.

I downloaded the patch yesterday and didn't notice a FPS loss, It was clouded/rainy but not completely overcast.

There's another patch?

Interesting with your results.

 

Will submit a ticket also.

 

But will investigate a little further in my system also.

Use ASN on all my VA flights, now on P3D V 3.2, and ASN 5921.  No FPS problems at all even in heavy weather.  

 

 

 

I don't think I ha e the latest. Will check when I get home though.

It could be something different with ASN one of the effects can bring down the FPS like microburst windshear etc...

That is probably what I had the other day, while on approach to PAYA RWY 11 in stormy weather.

Right after the DME arc my "little" T182 started to act like a rocking chair with a broken leg. Up and Down, Sideways, etc.

 

Too bad the GTN750 does not connect to ASN, or I would have heard a warning, I don't have the ASN gauge in that plane. It would have been nice to hear the Aural warning.

I'm stumped, I haven't changed my settings at all and had worked flawlessly before.

 

It happened at around 70nm out fl310 heavy clouds.

 

I don't know I guess something was running in background.

 

My GPUs weren't hot at 60c and cpu at 50

This also was a brand new problem for me as well since the last patch. I was confused as to why it was happening and looked back at my settings in sim to try and fix it. I never had drops like that before but in cloudy weather my sim goes from 30 fps down to about 12. Very confusing. 

Let me guess.... you want 64bit.
