Did some tests:

All my addon's active + GSX = 10 FPS
All my addon's active - GSX = 60 FPS

Only P3D default scenery active + GSX = 10 FPS
Only P3D default scenery active - GSX = 60 FPS

Conclusion: I think something odd has happened here. No matter what, when I'm activating GSX the FPS drops to max 10.

I think I have to unistall the P3dv4 client and reinstall it. Maybe that helps. Not happy  :-[

I too have had this issue after installing KSDF. There i something going on with GSX. Support says they cant reproduce these. There are numerous people reporting issues. Something going on..

Support hasn't just "said" we cannot reproduce it: I've posted a screenshot proving it doesn't happen:

http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,17783.msg124411.html#msg124411

And I'm obviously continuing to following it and getting more data. So yes, a couple of people are reporting lower fps with this but, since we are sure that nothing in the update could possibly have any effect on fps and the 747 works just fine here, there must be SOMETHING ELSE, which we are still trying to understand.

Try to delete the shader cache:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3d v4\Shaders

Start the sim, it will be all black, just wait a couple of minutes for the shaders to be recreated.

Umberto,

You suggested this earlier in the 12th post. But, I did this again, and no effect.

Still updating all of my modules (for example FSUIPC and SODE). I'll keep you posted for results.

It's a anoying bug. I now fly for 15 years. Never experienced these kind of silly problems.

Reinstalled FSUIPC latest version
De-installed and installed SODE latest version (already had it)

Result:
Still 10 FPS max

We had another update today. Nothing that could have any relationship with fps but, since not even the last one had, yet you noticed an fps drop, perhaps it might change something for you so, it's worth a try.

As usual, be sure you configure the antivirus to exclude the Addon Manager folder.

Hi,

I have a similar problem.

Yesterday I installed a really fresh Windows 10 Pro on a new SSD and installed P3D v4.2 too. All drivers and SO updated to yesterday.

Then install in this order: Toposim mesh, ORBX Global, ORBX Europe LC and PMDG NGX. I fly a short 1 hour flight and all correct.

Today I install GSX and when undock any window  like PMDG ND or PFD, P3D ATC window, etc. and move to other monitor, fps low to 10. If undock PMDG ND on the principal monitor, no low fps but the ND undocked stay freeze; if return to dock the image move again.

I tried to uninstall GSX and the problem disappears.

Then, I can't use GSX becouse my frames low to 10 fps in all aiports and with all aircrafts.

Please, can you help me?

Thanks and best.

Hi Umberto,

I installed the latest GSX update. As you wrote. No luck.

Now I'm moving all addons out of P3Dv41 disk before I reinstall the client software (making backups of all my CFG and XML files). All lot of work to do.

Of course, I was quite sure of it. Since nothing in the previous update could possibly cause an fps loss, nothing in the new one would fix anything.

It's not strictly required to uninstall everything. Can't you just disable all addons *EXCEPT* the Addon Manager, and see if it makes any difference ?

I'm sorry, but I can only repeat and confirm I cannot reproduce the problem in any way. Do you have the "Cap Simconnect updates" Addon manager option enabled ? If yes, turn it off (it's off by default)

Hi Umberto,

No problem at all. I know we both, with more then 30 years experience in IT and simming together, are desperately seeking "what's wrong here". I hope we find the origin of the problem before we have a solution. I've never seen this kind of trouble. Not in FS9, nor FSX.

I saw some posts in PrePar3D forum. Also about "max 10 FPS" trouble. The solutions there are looking at the Nvidia software (problems with VSync, etc.). Following this post closely.

I start tonight with my last option, reinstall the client software. But first I will look at your last possible solution in the Addon Manager.

Keep you posted.
