August 30, 20196 yr OMG - the cockpit video with rain - OMG!!! I just crapped my pants. If I can get that inside VR - holy word not allowed!!!! What do I do with all sceneries I have now. LOL How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)

Just going to focus on learning my PMDG/MaddogX/Majestic/A2A birds from inside and outside. It will keep me going till I get to see this sim. From what the videos show - it is light years ahead of what we have (graphically speaking) How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)

If the graphics engine is optimized there is no reason a modern hardware cannot produce smooth frame rates. Just one example, if it supports Occlusion Culling, there is serious, serious gains (200% plus) in performance possible from that very one feature. http://youtube.com/c/Greazer

Yes but even at 60+ fps you can have frame pacing issues that will lead to stutters depending on your settings and a million others things. No dev is going to promise a stutter free PC game. They can aim for it being well optimized but that's no guarantee. 5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX 9070XT.

I thought I made that clear in my post. Everyone here knows this is pre-Alpha. What I'm saying, is that it's not great marketing to show stutters at all, even at this point in a pre-Alpha build. It suggests too many things about the engine they're using, and the balance of eye candy to performance. Show me an Alpha hype-building version of a AAA shooter game with stutters in the frame rate. No? There's a reason for that. Maybe the FSX and P3D contingent is used to this, but those running other flight sims currently available are not. To be clear, I'm rooting for this sim to succeed, but right now they're showing a very glaring Achilles Heel in those video clips. Breaks in the frame rate is the first thing we should be looking for, beyond the eye candy. Especially considering that they're running those videos on very high-end hardware.

It is perfectly smooth here. No Issues. The Only Issue with the Frame Rates is your Own Crappy PC or MAC, the video card and/or video drivers, and/or network latency.

I'm flying a stutter-free civilian flight sim now, with the specs below in my sig that aren't all that powerful. My frame rate might drop down from 45 to the low 30 fps range, but I have zero stutters and zero pop-in. If that sim can do it with no stutters at all , then I would expect MS to do it also. DCS can do it as well, and although I don't fly AFS2 I don't hear those sim pilots complaining about stutters. Haven't you flown anything else than FSX? Serious question.

Check me on this, because I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong. In the video clip with the rain on the canopy, let it buffer completely so the video playback is smooth and watch it again. You don't see a small pause in the animation at 10 seconds? Maybe some of us are more sensitive to this than others.

Your fps is not locked, you're going from 45 to low 30 fps and you're not noticing anything? I find that hard to believe. pop-in has little to do with stutter, the question is do you experience things like screen tearing. X-Plane isn't even hitting 60fps for you and you want to tell MS what is and isn't acceptable this early on? LOL!

Maybe some of us are more sensitive to this than others. He's probably joking because I do see the hiccup at the 9 second mark. Then again it's just one thing in a 15 second video that's otherwise smooth and showing off graphics and atmosphere we've never seen before.
