FSX-MS Stutters

[virginblue737 0]

Hey all, 

 

Stutters is something I have always had, i seem to be able to run my sim at 30fps, it looks amazing, but yet im always getting stutters. 

 

Its most noticable when taxing in and out of airports. Up in the air everything seems smooth its just when im on the ground. 

 

It dosent matter if im at a complex airport like ORBX Brisbane or just a default airport i still seem to get the stutters. 

 

Is there something i can do maybe within the FSX.CFG or nvidea inspector that will get rid of those stutters??

 

Thanks

If it's happening mostly at airports, complex and default, and not while in the air, I would suspect your

 

AI aircraft settings are too high.  If you are above 50% airline AI, then start lowering the setting by

 

5-10% and see how it goes.  I don't use aircraft labels so I don't know if they show while the AI are

 

on the ground, or not, so I would disable them also.

The BufferPool tweak causes stuttering if not properly configured.

I cannot other than what is stated in the AVSIM FSX Configuration Guide. It has also been mentioned by NickN in his forums that the tweak causes some instability for some and should be removed if it is causing problems. The information in the FSX Configuration Guide is taken from information gleaned from around the flight simulation community. I personally tried it a couple of years ago and got major stuttering and pauses while flying out of FlightBean's KIAD and over photoscenery. I removed the tweak and the stuttering/pauses stopped. Can't you just comment out the tweak (place two slashes //in front of the parameter, save the config, and it will not load the next time you start FSX. If you continue to have stuttering, then that did not fix your problem and you will have to investigate. We have several suggestions in the AVSIM CTD Guide for investigating, not only CTD's, but other anomalies in FSX as well. Moving the FSX.cfg, dll.xml, and scenery.cfg to a temporary folder and restarting FSX is a very good start as that will bring you back to the default configuration of FSX (w/o tweaks and w/o high settings). High settings in the Nvidia display drivers can cause stuttering too.

Jim you win my Star today!

 

I removed the Bufferpool tweak and had a great flight. I was hunting for the reason I got those short pauses and that was it.

 

Finally after 2 months I would say I now have my FSX working great - that was the last problem.

Running a nice 30 fps in J4100, orbx, real weather (REX & Opus). No OOMs flying into big APs. Happy guy!

 

Thanks Mr. Young for always helping us out.

 

PS I had been through the guide, but have been thru many many guides over the last couple of months.

NickN and I both agree that the BufferPool tweak is really not need in systems like yours and mine. I really appreciate your responding and telling us how the problem was fixed. I'm positive it will help others in the future.

I stopped using that tweak months ago! Don't need that tweak on our systems.
