1/2 Vsync Drop

[FSX1234 0]

Hi

 

I use the 1/2 VSYNC setting and before i program the FMC the frame rate is between 29.9 and 30.0. However when i have programmed the FMC i notice this drops to 29.5-30.00 and this is when i notice the stuttering. I don't believe it did this before but can't seem to understand why it has started now. I do understand that when programming the FMC is is calculating all the information but was wondering if it was something i was doing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Setting a vertical sync lock then setting the frame rate to 30 is almost a sure problem.  I prefer something like a frame rate of 32 or 33, others have their own preferences.

Doubtful.

 

Here 20fps locked and 1/3 refresh on a 60Hz monitor kicks 21fps butt.

 

 

Unfortunately I don't have a 30fps example handy right now, but it'll show the same kind of thing.

For what it is worth, fps lock of 30 in FSX and 1/2 monitor refresh in NI is smooth as silk for me, whereas fps lock of 33 and 1/2 refresh introduces small hesitations.

Do you find when locked at 30 fps with 1/2 and flying the ngx it drops or does it always stay at 30 fps

1. I do not fly the ngx.. got me there..

 

2. I do not watch the fps counter..

 

Smoothness is what counts for me.

 

ps.. my fps rarely drop below 29..
