Well without doing any changes compared to the last few days it is like night and day... the sims back to the way it was for me and the masive drops in fps have gone! Make of it what you will....

This happened to me yesterday, I was so delighted....until I input my destination airport into the Waypoint Info section of the MFD in the TBM.  Immediately, the sporatic severe FPS drops resumed.  Haven't re-tried today.

I checked again this evening-- no dice.  Still hit the same locations with the same drop in FPS.

Still happens here as well.

Like suggested in the official MSFS forums, I created a ticket for the issue.  I got the response shown below.  The good thing is they recognize the issue (no doubt based upon the feedback and others who opened tickets).  I personally haven't tried their suggestion yet.  I'm not on my flight sim PC at the moment so I'll give this a try later.  If anyone else wants to give this a shot and report back, feel free!

 

Thanks for bringing this matter to our attention. This issue has been tracked in our internal bug tracker and we're currently investigating. In the meantime we recommend doing the following:

·         Launch Microsoft Flight Simulator

·         Go to Options > General

·         Select Graphics

·         Under Advanced Settings and scale down "Render Scaling" to 80 instead of 100 or above.
Kind regards,
Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Team

That's the same suggestion I got and wasted a few minutes trying. In addition to getting 10 to 15 FPS, the sim then looks like garbage too. Woohoo!

That's the typical Microsoft style of no support just lame suggestions

Supposedly being fixed in a patch to be released today.  I checked this morning but nothing in the sim updated yet.

If you look out of the window, you may see some flying pigs.

Huh?  The flying pigs were fixed in Sim Update 2 weren't they?

Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

Intel 14900K in a Z790 motherboard with water cooling, RTX 4080, 32 GB 6000 CL30 DDR5 RAM, W11 and MSFS on Samsung 980 Pro NVME SSD's.  Core Isolation Off, Game Mode Off.

Alright, they just released the patch (1.14.6.0), so I rang up my known flight path which I had seen the FPS drops as reported in my 3/13 post.  KATW->KOSH->KFDL->KSBM and then up the east side of Lake Winnebago.  Varied altitudes from 3,500 to 5,500 in the Pitts.

NO issues!  With Dev mode on I noticed [on my setup] ~50-60 FPS with lowest, momentary drops into the high 40's when down less than 3,300.  But NOTHING like the 20-35 FPS spikes before today.  

Will take up another flight with the Spitfire just to test again with another plane, but so far so good!  🤞

EDIT:  Same flight plan with Spitfire yielded same results at this Pitts-- no drops in FPS.  Even messed around with weather scenarios vs. live weather and had no issues either.  Yay!
