Is it just me or did performance & image quality improve?

Featured Replies

I'm amazed at not only the excellent performance I'm getting which is in part because I've wised up to setting the sliders up optimally, but image quality just seems sterling now, mostly since the recent WU, but maybe before I'm not sure.  For awhile there it seems there was more fuzziness in the but lately it's just been excellent everywhere too!  I wonder if some behind the scenes adjusting happened in prep for the Xbox release....

I was thinking the same thing -- that performance and image quality seem to have improved recently. I also believe that these improvements are in preparation for the forthcoming Xbox release.

Actually I flew from Scottsdale to Ryan Field an hour ago and I noticed just the opposite - the one and only time the performance was suspect since I installed MSFS. Enough to make me scratch my head about what it could be. Hopefully it was a one off. 

Yup, I can see with great detail all of the morphing now, whereas before it was blurred. Haha 

General performance improvement expected for the release of the xbox version and SU5.

I just set the Placebo slider at Ultra, it runs smoother than ever with zero stuttering and no morphing whatsoever.

Trees LOD is insane too, I am flying over Svalbard and I can spot the Amazon forest in the distance.

All I can add, is that, since day one I always had a stutter about every minute to minute and a half. After this update, that is gone. I found it amazing to have disappeared. I did somewhere around update change to fast synch in nvidia inspector, but I doubt that's what cleared up the annoying stutter.

Remember my dear Fuzzy, flight simulation doesn't work on GPU or CPU or bandwidth or whatnot. It works on a greater power, imagination.

The sim is much smoother for me now. Stutters are almost completely gone and it just feels a lot snappier. I hope it stays this way.

It’s definitely snappier, when everything literally ‘snaps’ in to place right in front of you 😉 

Ha I’m sorry I can’t help it, fingers crossed they have this fixed. 

I cant say I agree. It's not that it doesnt run smooth, because it does, but the tree draw distance is now so small that the blurryness of the textures beyond the tree line is very jarring. It's amazing how much trees can cover up these blemishes, but with the trees practically gone from the sim (on max settings), I get vibes that harken back to the good old days in P3D and FSX. Very sad.

I can't understand how Asobo has not been able to get this sorted out (or fully acknowledge the issue as players see it)....really hoping that the next few updates will get things better. MSFS can look so good and so bad....at the same time.

Really?  Just like P3D/FSX?  Trees practically gone eh?  Where the heck are you flying?  This is OTW to Port Angeles WA w/ lots n lots of trees...
