Frame rate decreases after using GSX **SOLVED**
« on: October 22, 2018, 08:16:51 pm »
Hi. Frame rate decreases after using GSX in P3DV4.3. Recently noticed a strange feature. For example when I'm flying from YMML ORBX and I'm not using GSX, I'm okay with a frame rate of approximately 70-90 on FL350 (A320), but after using GSX for example Pushback, during flight reduced fps for an hour up to 27-30 fps. I've done some experiments and I'm only seeing fps drop after using GSX. I have all updates and GSX V2 installed

my pc: MSI GTX 1080 TI, i7-8700K (4,8 Мгц) , MSI Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON, 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 CORSAIR

Which A320 are u using?

I had the nearly the same issue but only with the FSL A319/320. For me it is not so long as for you but every time during boarding/deboarding the FSL, I get a massive FPS drop. (unstable FPS droping down to a single value)

If boarding/deboarding than finish FPS back to stable normal. The FSl is the only one plane I have this issue with.

All GSX objects are entirely removed from memory after you go away from the airport, and while you are flying GSX is not doing anything, other than looking for nearby airports, in order to allow you to pre-select a gate while flying.

And, if you are flying higher than 10.000 feet, it doesn't even do that so, over 10K feet, the only thing GSX does, is to check your altitude (even 4 seconds, which is the slowest update frequency possible) in order to be ready to reactivate in case you go below 10K feet again. So, over 10K feet, the impact of GSX in your system is nothing.

I use FSL320 and Atrosoft 320, I specifically tested on different types. But I have already found the reason, I used to minimize the P3D window and this problem was after restoring the p3d window. If I don't do it, it's okay.

Thanks. The question is closed. I found the cause. GSX is a coincidence in my case.  ;D
