Better check your system setup because it looks fine to me.

All I can tell you is the PFD's and HUD are smooth as silk on my system, no issues whatsoever with refresh rates, none.... Sorry to hear of your troubles, if it's not stretching the limits of your hardware, then I wonder what it could be..?? This is certainly not something i've heard a lot of complaints about, that's for sure. Hope you get it worked out. Edited March 6, 20197 yr by SunDevil56 Scott
March 6, 20197 yr I don’t have any issues with hud or pfd refresh rates either. Just as smooth as others out there.
March 6, 20197 yr Do these PBR textures also manifest themselves in the VC? I rarely get to see the outside of the plane that I am flying.

March 6, 20197 yr The PFD refresh rate is set to 18 FPS by default. (I don’t know for sure, but suspect the HUD is exactly the same.) This is a fairly low refresh rate compared to default rates in other payware aircraft and has exactly nothing to do with the user’s hardware. You may not notice the lower than typical refresh rate, but it’s a fact nonetheless. The manual identifies a tweak you can add in the cfg file for the aircraft that increases the refresh rate (at the cost of performance) but some have reported the tweak doesn’t actually work. James

James If the HUD is indeed set to 18fps, and if it's not noticeable by most people, which by far seems to be the prevailing experience most users are reporting, what would account for the refresh rate apparently being a big issue for a very small number of people..??

The P3D (and FSX, FS9...) gauge system runs with a 55ms update period...or ~18 updates per second. Gauges in addons that have a draw rate faster than this have to interpolate the data streaming from the core simulation, as it doesn't come from the simulation any faster than the gauge system refresh rate. Given that the default refresh rate is already set to that magic value of 18 Hz, I'm not sure if setting a refresh rate greater than 18 in the config file really has any effect. I did a little cursory Google-Fu and did not find any good info one way or the other.

March 6, 20197 yr I'll chime in again. I fly the 787 at work and I'm very pleased with the QW 787. I also agree with the title of this thread 😀 I do get the occasional glitch but I get glitches with every software program I've ever dealt with.
