Unable to install the latest version really frustrating.

 

Did you try all the relevant suggestions in the readme to resolve it?

Since today autofps doesn't start anymore; I don't know why. I'm on beta 5 FS2024. What informations do you (or me) need for looking for errors? The log-file from today contains this; I tried installing an older version inbetween but it doesn't help.:

Both versions of the app you tried should be compatible with the latest SU5 Beta. Is this the first time you have tried the app with SU5? What was the last working configuration of app and MSFS you had? Any major changes on your system before you experienced this today?

Try reinstalling the app again and select the Repair option, then try again.

Are you manually quitting the app or is it CTDing by itself? If the latter, does Windows Event Viewer show any app crash details? To check, open Event Viewer, on the tree on the left expand out to Even Viewer (Local) -> Windows Logs ->Application, under actions on the right click Find and search for "AutoFPS" and paste the details of any errors that occur into a PM and send that to me.

Thanks so much. I’m just glad the tool is helping people enjoy the sim more.

hi, thanks for the app, works nicely, can anyone advise if its possible to configure it to start a session with your preferred top TLOD, and to only decrease TLOD if below target FPS? atm i've configured in FPS sensitivity, base min 42@1000, extra x4, top max 168@2000 which works nicely apart from the first 30sec during FPS settle will always have the min TLOD, so for things like landing challenges the terrain looks bad to start with.

I am starting to learn to fly helicopters. Can I get some suggestions as to the best way(s) to configure AutoFPS for helicopter flying? I will be flying simple ones initially like the Cabri G2.

Thanks.

The app's automation is designed primarily for flight starts from the ground or, if in the air, from a reasonable way out to give time for the automation to settle. Landing challenges are not really suited to this so you have the choice of either not using the app when doing such landing challenges or set up an Auto TLOD flight profile with 42@1000 and top max 168@2000 which will instantly give you the correct TLOD for a given altitude as there is no seek or settle in this mode*.

 

 

* After trying this out myself, I realise that there are still some settle events for Auto TLOD in 0.4.6.6 that really should not be there so I will fix in 0.4.6.7-test so that you never see any of them.

Edit: 0.4.6.7-test12, or later, available here, has had all FPS settle events removed from Auto TLOD mode, as they are irrelevant in this specific mode.

It should really be no different than with normal aircraft because the app automates based on AGL, so it shouldn't matter whether you come in on a glide path like a normal aircraft or descend vertically in a helicopter. I use the same settings for both types with no noticable issues.

Ah thanks I wasn't aware of the test versions.

I guess i was hoping to either:

be able to override the initial settle time to something shorter

or have an alternate mode not considering altitude, where you start at your preferred max TLOD and only decrease towards the min TLOD based on delta from target FPS, that feels like a more catch all approach that accounts for variance in system demand caused by different environments, planes etc.

The initial 30 second settle timer is there to not only give MSFS time to stabilise after loading in but also for AutoFPS to intiialise its own smoothing parameters. It can go as low as 10 seconds, which is what I force it to when developing as MSFS is usually in a flight session all the time while I am doing so, but for normal MSFS use I have found this is not long enough and causes sub-optimal TLOD, and possibly even premature settings reductions, on the ground. I don't think even allowing users to adjust it down to 10 seconds will be low enough for what you want to achieve.

I have not implemented this before because it could easily result in FPS remaining way below target at the start of a flight on the ground, which is where most users commence flights from, at a complex airport until TLOD dropped low enough to achieve it, which would make for unhappy users. Also, MSFS already has something similar to this with Dynamic Settings where it will give you your set LODs unless FPS is below target, in which case it will reduce them up to 50% and pretty much instantly, so there is really no need for AutoFPS to duplicate this. If you haven't tried Dynamic Settings yet for this particular scenario, I suggest you do so.

Sorry for my late replying. Reinstalling and repaIring solved the problem.

 

If I understand correctly, is enabling Dynamic LOD in the settings the only requirement for hybrid mode to work, assuming both use the same target FPS?

You must be in Expert mode, as being in Non-Expert mode will automatically disable Dynamic Settings for the duration of your flight session. Also, from the readme:
 

• Works best when using MSFS-set FPS cap, with Max and Dynamic Settings Target Frame Rates in MSFS settings set to the native frame rate equivalent of the AutoFPS target FPS, and the FPS Cap automation mode in AutoFPS.
• If not using an FPS cap, it is recommended to set the MSFS dynamic settings target frame rate to at least 10 FPS lower than the native frame rate equivalent of the AutoFPS target FPS for best results.

I am using framegen. I have capped the fps using RTSS at 40. Since FG disables the option to set in game fps cap. I have set the target fps in autofps app to 40 and option selected to 'FR'. Is this ok ? Or do i need to select a different option in autofps app?
