I ended up unchecking expert settings off because it was causing more stutters for me, as it turns out. Going into KATL and it was a total stutter fest around the main city. Probably the PG loading etc. Anyway, uncheck that and I had a fairly stutter-free landing despite being around the main city. Before, hardly stutters. Been flying nearly everyday since SU3 release as well. 

Just a thought. Maybe the app was making too many changes? I had base TLOD of 40 and highest at 200.

If I start to get stutters I just press Reset (non expert options) and that seems to fix it.

Yes, I'm getting more stutters with autofps active so I've decided not to use it.

You probably kept the VRAM+ setting on Max and hit 100%.

If having issues with stutters, reduce the range between TLOD Min and Max, keep TLOD Max reasonable and try setting the Sensitivity/Tolerance/LOD Step to 2 or 3.

Absolutely fantastic, I’ll give this a try the next time I do a flight, thank you

I am trying out the auto-switching between VR/Non-VR flight type profiles on my current flight and it is working very well. I am interested to see what you think of it.

BTW, I have just updated the app to show these flight type profile pairings more clearly in the flight type dropdown list as follows:

Single pairing:

 

 

Double pairing:

Normally Id agree but my vram is hardly getting touched. gpuz also agrees. 

Reset: this has happened a few times where I reduced the base tlod to 30 and max 150 and it still was happening. Initially it was 40 and 200. Fps tolerance and sensitivity i tried from 1, 2 or 3 as well. It may not have been the app but the garbagy PG near Atlanta. or my rollingcache needs deleting again but i did that a few days ago. But it worked well after restarting the app a few times.

Hitting reset i will try again this weekend. 

What is a good base TLOD and settings anyone wants to share with a similar setup to mine?

I have a similar system and I use 50/200 for VR with an FPS cap of 40 and 100/300 for 2D with an FPS cap of 30, sometimes doubled to 60 if I decide to use LSFG but generally I don't care about 2D performance as I only use it in the cruise. As you say, PG is often the culprit and some days it is bad and some good, regardless of whether I use AutoFPS or not. IMO SU3 is as many steps backward as it went forward and random stuttering is just one of those backwards features we inherited.

Not sure where to download the latest version from.  I know it's Github but can't seem to find the correct file!

Scroll down to the version you want (latest release or test) and there is a dropdown menu called Assets after the release notes.  Drop that down and click on the .exe for the version you want.

Sheesh. No kidding. Trying PG off saves a bit of performance but good gosh the PG around London City airport is absolutely terrible. Missing buildings, melted ice cream cones for building. I have the London City v2 scenery and that helps the major buildings but most of it looks bad. I have a 900mb/s connection and rolling cache doesn't matter what I put it as. No latency issues. 

Think I am keeping PG off and just get used to it. Even the generic buildings look better. When PG works, its amazing and beautiful. 

The problem with PG off, is there are certain 3rd party airports and even Asobo hand-crafted airports that have severe terrain issues with PG off.  For example, inibuids KJFK 4L/22R is basically unusable because there is a big speedbump that will wreck your takeoff and landing rolls with PG off.  Asobo KATL and KMCO are other examples.

Yeah, even KPDXv2 looks a tad funky without it. Problem is, when it works it looks good but takes performance. Or its random. AutoFPS helps though. Guess I should keep it on. There must be a way to improve PG so I can keeps its looks with a performance loss (but autofps saving the day!)

Appreciate the ideas here, Reset!

Having a 100-180 hz gsync-compatible monitor makes my brain hurt with gsync settings, fps capping and frame generation. Makes my brain hurt trying to figure out the best settings. Thats me, not the sim. 😅  

So fps cap in the sim at 30, FG brings it up further to 60....then set my monitor to..... 60? What abouy gsync?

Edited September 3, 2025Sep 3 by Sonosusto

I doubt that your VRR range is starting only at 100FPS. I guess it is at 48FPS like most G-Sync compatible monitors, so 60FPS would be perfectly fine within the range. What model is it exactly?
