Fluctuation in Frames

[camo50206 0]

Hi I was reading the post below about someone saying they had a fluctuation in fps which was causing stutters. 

 

I am also having this issue, they jump from 50-150 while in outside view and at high altitude. 

 

I noticed that mathijs said this has been answers in a different thread but I'm having trouble finding it sorry

Hi camo50206,

 

Link to other thread:

 

The solution (Last post) doesn't seem to work here though. They are aware of the fluctuation.

Cheers for the link. 

 

Im glad they are aware of the issue. 

 

I tried the exact same flight, weather, time etc but with the ngx and it was smooth. The frames were only jumping between 30-60 fps. 

 

In in the cockpit of the CRJ it's pretty smooth because the fps jumps between 20-40.

Fluctuating framerate is not a real issue as long as the lowest FPS is high enough of course.

I might need to tweet something then as the frames jump quite a bit which is causing the stutters.

I don't get the best framerate on my system (mostly due to nearly always running P3D running with a debugger attached). There are some fluctuations but I don't notice any stutters or so.

I have never seen a fluctuating framerate cause stutters, in fact it should prevent them as the sim is not artificially throttled. Anyway, we do not intend to change that behavior, sorry.

Ok thank you for the reply.

 

Do you use any external programmes like nvidia inspector to limit your fps?

I have mine set to unlimited in p3dv4 because using the in built frame limiter causes me to lose frames. 

 

Im just trying to think of ways of controlling the fluctuation

Why would I limit my frames? I know some people feel it has it's use but I simply have never seen any measurable advantage.

limit FPS make sim more stable as the sim save resources to make other things at least this is the theory . true its with CRJ unlimited frame rate means more frames. But i always make my frame lock  with other planes to 60.

I know the theory, I have just never seen even the slightest advantage and the few times we checked it side by side the only effect we saw was lower fps. But as with so many 'tweaks'  people to to the sim, if you believe in it it is probably worthwhile!

hahaha, who knows, sometimes theory is just theory. but to everynody who read this, for me, its true flying CRJ with out FPS limit means smooth simming and better frames!
