Kaashaas 9 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Hm. Do you assume that, or did you actually check that in the Windwos update history (just checking). Does it happen in default aircraft as well? Did you crank up any scenery settings? Or did you tweak them before via the .cfg file and had the FSX-settings menu opened in the sim (in which case some of the tweaks will be removed by automation which will cause a drop in performance ofcourse)? Something must have changed, otherwise all would be the same. Sometimes it's just hard to find out whodunnit. Ideas anyone? Grtz., Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact the CPU load should drop around 10% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaashaas 9 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 The thing is, I received the Windows 10 Creators update yesterday. I noticed a drop in fps as well at some point where I didn't notice it before. It dropped from a steady 28-30 to a 14-16. I updated my graphic drivers to the last version and it was gone. So maybe it's the drivers, maybe it's some changes in Windows that affects the drivers, but it's worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted May 26, 2017 Aerosoft Share Posted May 26, 2017 With every update of Windows there are some people who find it affects their framerate and thousands where it does not seem to have any effect. Unless you have done some serious testing it is rather hard to see where the updated windows could affect fps. A graphics driver can have effect, in extreme cases even a significant effect. But ALWAYS keep in mind that you need to do serious testing, same settings, same conditions to make serious claims. I do these test before any windows update and I actually never have seen any Windows update making FS slower. Only faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
