Default Stutters & Tweaks

S!

As we know this sim is still stuttering for most people even with powerful rigs as mine. I was so puzzled that I´d start to test every possible way to get rid of it, because stutters im a flight sim is a main killer. So this post it´s to share tweaks that reduced or eliminated this plague.

Here are mines:

- In game video confg everything is HIGH but Medium Forest, grass, shadows and roads on, vsync off (is forced on on NVCP with 4xAA and 4xAF).

- this one is from some dude in the net:

"One thing to try, stolen from Saint's Row 2: disable page file, clear the Windows prefetch directory. Reboot, start the game, load a game, quit and restart the game. That solved a lot of stuttering on that game. You'll basically teach Windows to load the game without virtual memory."
C:\Windows\Prefetch

- CPU overclocked to 4.0GHz, memory bus to 925MHz, FSB to 200MHz and GPU to 830/1660/2004.

Overall I have 48FPS average but clouds and low level flight are the main hit on performance/ stutters.

Also I have a feeling that it stutters more on a SSD then a HD, don´t know why. I´ll make some tests with a HD.

Well, I´m looking for to yours tweaks.

SP!
