Performance issues under EA (traditional cloud/volume cloud)

[cdv0007 21]

P3D has been updated to 5.2.

First of all, let's talk about PC space, 1080ti+9900K+32G memory, all of which have been properly overclocked.

LEBB airport using Orbx closed dynamic vehicles and characters, using fslabs A320, the weather was cloudy and rainy. The shader has been cleaned up. The maximum viewing distance on the ground is 69 miles, and the maximum viewing distance in the air is 199 miles.

I use ASCA for the traditional cloud, and the cloud resolution is 1024*1024 DXT. During the landing of LEBB Rwy30, there is a slight visible stuttering, and the FPS is not ideal. The screen will occasionally jump.

When using volumetric clouds, although volumetric clouds have the bug that they cannot block the terrain, they are also rendered full sky clouds, but the FPS is significantly higher.

When I adjusted the cloud resolution to 256*256 in ASCA, the FPS increased slightly and the stuttering phenomenon was slightly alleviated.

Summary: EA's volume cloud optimizes performance to a certain extent, but there are bugs. I hope that HF can be repaired, and I still prefer to use volumetric clouds in the future.

The hierarchical transition of volumetric clouds is terrible, and there has been no effective improvement since the release of P3DV5.

Yes EA is very much still a work in progress. Also on max settings it is very heavy on your video card.

It’s all about balance. In this vid AG is not at maxed settings and that helps .
