As I’ve been witnessing a more common occurrence of FPS dips and stuttering on final even though when taking off was originally smooth at the same airport I thought I’d test some things. The setting is Shoreham Airport (my hub) and to fly East along the coast, turn in land and come back again. I’m using the Inibuilds Shoreham for scenery and the Freedom Fox P42 ac. Initially I took off in the freedom fox and when I returned to Shoreham massive stutter and degradation of FPS was spoiling the experience so I landed and loaded up the same scenario but using the default Savage Club. After performing an almost exact path of the Freedom Fox I ventured back to Shoreham… but this time no stutters at all and perfect FPS with no drops whatsoever. I have done this test a few times with these exact results. Initially I presumed it was the scenery loading in (inibuilds Shoreham) causing this but using the default ac this disproves this so it’s looking more like add on aircraft are causing this, what looks like, some type of memory leak. This isn’t to say the Freedom Fox isn’t the culprit as I haven’t tested any othe ac with this but it may explain the stuttering etc that can occur out of nowhere when on final.

From my observation this isn't true. Some AC out there allow the option of this and when removed testing my end it can make a difference. Remember this is basically FSX (still using FSX legacy code) reskinned with ASOBO bolt ons, ie the folder structure is exactly the same.

Haha!! I remember in FSX that the cabin could be removed, pretty sure I did this manually within the folder structure, although that was loooong ago! I'll have a dig around......................

I don't really want to go down the route of flexing system specs, but as you mentioned we are all striving for better performance. I find it odd not having this option as other AC do.

Hi all, does anyone know if the virtual cabin can be turned off in order to achieve better frame rates? I tried looking through the FMC plane setup but cant see any reference.

I'm not too far from Lewes (just down the road) so I know this airport very well. The main building is gorgeous in its art-deco style. I have a lesson booked there next week too :))

I think what you are seeing is the photogrammetry being throttled due to data flow whilst flying. A few of us have noticed data flow is down plus some connection issues too

Hey all :) Since posting this I’ve noticed it’s a common issue; every YouTube vid I’ve watched around London has this issue (central London) plus there’s also been a few posts on this too. It could be server overload……. In fact I’m pretty sure it is as I’ve been checking on the download rate when flying and the amount of data the sim pulls when flying is extremely low compared to other patches. This issue could explain other issues that people are getting too namely the blurred ground visuals. Asobo really need to start communication a bit more methinks. The performance of this update though far outweighs any other problems especially the glass cockpit html optimisation :)

After the update of SU5 I have these melted look buildings around London City. I’ve tried resetting the cache, disabling the cache, manually creating cache etc all to no avail. Does anyone have workable solution. Unfortunately the forum won’t let me upload pics here

Excellent thank you

How are you getting FFB working? I have the MSFFB2 and I have no forces in FS2020

Brilliant idea yes I remember EZDOCK well 🙏

Excellent thank you
