CaptainLHKLM 39 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hi all! I was looking at my task manager and saw that at that time (on the ground at EHAM, XP11) the cpu was used around 29-30%. Is this normal, or do most people get, say 80%+ out of their CPU? Does anyone know how to get the rest of the performance capability? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainLHKLM 39 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Right, well thank you! I do see that the CPU usage does get higher, but still tweaking XP11 is not easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainLHKLM 39 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Yeah, although that isn't possible I think something in my X-Plane could be broken as before, I could get say 50-60fps on Christmas Island (I use it because it loads fast), but now after doing too much tweaks in nVidia configurtion, etc, I can only get just over 30, max 35 while in the cockpit which is kinda bothering me now. When I look at the sky sometimes its all fine, but when the horizon comes into view the fps just drop. Yet I don't really know what it is, I updated my drivers, maybe something to do with that.

CaptainLHKLM 39 Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 The pictures show the problem, it's as if the ground textures are super heavy? I don't know, but anyway, happy new year!

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted January 1, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted January 1, 2018 Of course it all depends on your hardware. X-Plane depends a lot on the GPU these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainLHKLM 39 Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Yeah, and although my CPU is a bit old, I do have a GTX970 which should do pretty well. I have added some flywithlua scripts which seem to work nicely, but still it's weird how much they plunge sometimes. The ground can give you 50 fps, and the sky 50 fps but the horizon maybe only 30 or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
