Heavy stuttering with airliners on short final

Featured Replies

Title. Since the sim launched i've had the game turn into a slideshow whenever i get within 100ft of the runway on airliners. However, it only happens if im doing a full flight.

What i mean is, for example, if i enter the world map, select a random airport with say the new pmdg 737 and select it only as arrival so that i spawn in short final to land the plane, the sim runs perfectly.

But if i come in to land from a full flight, the mentioned issue happens. No matter how low i set the graphics and how many performance tweaks i try, since it runs perfectly in any other situation.

The issue dissapeard in Sim Update 5, but came back on sim update 6

What could be causing this?

As i said, it's been present since launch. SU5 only fixed it briefly.

Reality Is For People Who Can't Handle Simulation!

 

Happened to me a moment ago. EDDK to EGLL and final onto 27L was a stuttering mess (using FBW a320). Admittedly that’s Heathrow which is particularly taxing I guess. 

Lower your LOD settings when flying complex airliners into dense areas.

I also lower AI and any other moving traffic such as cars, boats, etc.

FPS do degrade over time for all of us (in different amounts, though, and not necessary noticeable for anyone).

Now if your FPS go really low on ANY airport (like some default small airport in the middle of nowhere and without any PG cities nearby), there is a problem on your system / setup. But as you said "full flight" I suppose you fly to bigger airports and probably with PG cities nearby. PG will tank FPS, so you can only set PG to off or reduce terrain LOD to reduce the effect.
Also check out your mods if they are updated for SU9.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Again, it's not a problem with my graphics settings. If i spawn on short ginal for RWY04 at LaGuardia right next to manhattan with a taxing airliner like the 737 the sim runs without issue even on higher settings.

It only happens if i've been flying for a couple hours beforehand on the same flight. Even on less demanding airport, like a default airport in a non-photogrametry city, and it happens on the lowest of settings

i assume that by PG you mean photogrammetry

Like i just said to DJJose, it doesn't matter where im landing. (read what i've just replied to DJJose)

I Don't have any mods, only a couple of super basic addon airports for argentina and addon aircraft.

I have that problem too, felt since forever, but not realy know when this happens first but it is a long time period now.

I tried a lot of things put down the specs on very low and tried but nothing helped..

I am using 4K and have not the very best Hardware but i think it sould do it, my settings is not Ultra, half,half between medium and high.

Seems to me the loading off the elements short before landing ( airport and part of the cities around, if happens, are causing to stop the frames and bring up this stutters for some moments )

Programmetry and Multiplayer is allways of for me, but anyway i have this Issue..

Seems a management of coding is goeing on here which is not properly optimized 🤔

 

cheers 😉
