August 11, 20214 yr Goody morning guys, I am experiencing a heavy stutter when flying through any kind of cloud while clouds are set to "ultra". I had this before SU5 so it's not a new issue. I am running on ultra preset with FPS capped to 30 and its completely smooth. But as soon as I enter a cloud it immediately starts to stutter and it doesn't make a difference whether it is a thick overcast layer or just a little high altitude stratus. I can fly near them, above and below, no issue. Only inside its a stutterfest. Setting clouds to "high" resolves the issue but I'd really like to enjoy the full ultra experience. Specs are: [email protected] Ghz RTX3080 32GB RAM and so on. Has anyone a clue what setting inside or outside the game could be causing this? Any help appreciated! Happy landings!

August 11, 20214 yr Possibly heat related. Checked your temps? Default usercfg opt file? Another thought - is this happening with all aircraft?

August 11, 20214 yr What is your Render Scaling at? I run a RS of 120 and with my 3090 it will reduce my frame rate to mid 20’s. I think it has to do with the AA.

August 11, 20214 yr Author Temperatures are all good. CPU and GPU are doing fine. My RS is 100 @4k resolution. I just wonder why it only stutters when actually inside of the clouds. I can remember having the exact same problem back in FSX. Maybe I should fiddle with the NCP AA settings a bit?

August 11, 20214 yr Could be an interaction between clouds and volumetric lighting? Try turning off all external lights? YSSY.

August 11, 20214 yr The fact that you are running all ultra might be a give away. Just because you have a souped up pc doesn't mean it'll handle everything you throw at it. (why do most think that?)

Just because you have a souped up pc doesn't mean it'll handle everything you throw at it. (why do most think that?) Because I run it at a full 30fps even at the biggest of cities. Why would a tiny little cloud of haze at 30.000 feet cause stutters in this setup? Your point may be valid if I was flying through a cloud layer that is thousands of feet thick. My souped up PC handles MSFS very well and has plenty of headroom. I am 99 percent sure this issue is not performance related.

August 11, 20214 yr Did you even try lowering the settings? Did you change anything in NVCP? What are your GPU temps when in clouds? Tomaz Drnovsek My FSX Videos My AVSIM Gallery

I run my clouds at ultra (only setting on ultra) and have no stutters in heavy cloud coverage, so it has to be some of your settings. Reduce some of your settings and see what happens

August 11, 20214 yr There are some settings that are just not worth having on Ultra. There's almost no visual difference but they're computing thousands of extra cycles in the background.

August 11, 20214 yr Sounds to me like you just need to turn some stuff down a bit to be honest. And if you choose carefully, it probably won't even be that noticeable when you do. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
