August 20, 20178 yr Hello simmers, So you have read pages and pages of how to optimize your sim, you found the sweet spot of your system and finally you sit back and relax and enjoying the experience. Nevertheless after some hours/days of simming suddenly the nightmare comes back, stuttering, loss of fps, loss of smoothness and you wonder whats wrong. Then you start again all over the research to fight the battle of sim balance. If this sounds familiar to you there is a very simple trick that may work for you as it seems to work for me. When you experience loss of performance without reason (no tweak , no add on which can affect performance etc|), try to do the following: Go to the familiar options menu and click on display. Then choose RESET TO DEFAULT. Press ok. Just do it, it doesnt affect your preset display settings. Then you can choose again your favorite display settting. Start the sim, you will experience the smootheness you had before. I dont know what this happening maybe there is a bug when you change your display configuration and after some changes the sim is messed up. The most important is that it works. Please report if you have seen an improvement. Note that you dont have to delete your cfg just reset the settings in the sim. Good luck and good landings

Good luck and good landings As idicated by the fact that this "trick" somehow restores performance, it is absolutely clear that something is changed by clicking on "reset to defaults". There is nothing such as "miracles" inside the fs world. The only thing here: nobody knows (so far) what this actually does...

August 22, 20178 yr I tried this and for whatever reason I did get a boost. I reset to default, changed all of the settings back to what they were before resetting, and had pretty good results. Time will tell if it was placebo or not, but the first flight was an improvement. - Aaron
