Spinning white loading disk and stutters

Featured Replies

I'm on the SU9 beta, but have been away from the sim for a bit, so was wondering if this was a problem before.

About every 30 seconds I get a spinning white loading disk at the bottom right of my screen and associated stutters which disappear as soon as the disc goes.  Any idea what might be causing this, or is this the normal par for the course at the moment?  My performance is solid 30FPS with default AC pretty much everywhere when the disk isn't visible.   TIA.

Please no!  They got rid of this in SU8 (or SU7 I forget now) and I hope to heck it's not back!  3-4 zendesks on this get rid of it and it finally happened.  You can disable it by toggling Dev Mode On then Off anywhere while in a flight but then you lose the logging of your flight in the Pilot Log.

I'm trying that with some success...  Yeah seems to have cleared the problem, but whatever problem you were talking about is very much there for me.  Seemed to be most apparent in critical phases of flight, any waypoints, stuttering heavy on touchdown and takeoff. 

I'm not noticing many other beta testers complaining about it though...

I'm not doing the beta this time but when a recent SU got rid of the thing a few others said it was still happening for them so who knows for sure.  It's been great to not have to do the DM toggle and restore logging of flights.

Same for me SU9 beta with the hotfix.  Spinning white disk with corresponding stutters.

I reported this to MS on their SU9 beta forum and it has been logged as a bug.

Hopefully there will be a fix eventually but maybe not in SU9. It is on their roadmap now, at least.

I work around it by loading a flight, then going into settings, selecting dev mode and applying, then deselecting dev mode and applying.

Return to your flight and hopefully stutters will be gone. This does not work for everyone but many say this works for them.

Here's the full story on the MS forums:

It may be fixed with SU8 MS version, but not with Steam, have to toggle Devmode on off 7 times out of 10, it's very annoying.

Curiously, I have the spinning circle after loading up a flight and stays for 1-2 minutes causing some stuttering. This happens only in one of my two computers on which I have MSFS installed (one license on Steam). The second computer is fine. Happens to me after SU8. I’m not in the SU9 beta.

They’re always fixing pot holes it seems.

Same thing happens to me.  Sometimes it stays for even longer...5 mins or so.  Once it goes away, everything is silky smooth.  

My solution has been to just load up my flight and step away for a few minutes while it does its thing.  I had no idea of the dev mod work around.  I'll have to give that a shot tonight.
