jason74 Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 I average 40 FPS in Xplane 11. If i enable Skymaxx my frames never go past 20 FPS and get as low as 6 FPS in cloud. Not happy with the product its not usable without ruining the whole flight experiace. I run it in a RTX 2080 TI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldflyguy Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 @jason74SMP/RWC may have that performance cost if you are using the new volumetric (not sure if that is the correct term) cloud art / high AA settings and/or a high res monitor. Have you tried 1 - the fast cumulus setting? 2 - turning down AA? SMP settings are completely adjustable and this app runs just fine on my creaky old rig. It could be you just have a lot settings - SMP and XP graphics - too high. Post a log.txt if you will so the experts (not me) here in the community are able to offer assistance.

sundog Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Try the new 5.1.0 release; it should improve performance with the non-volumetric cloud types. If you want to use volumetric, adjusting your anti-aliasing settings is probably the best way to improve their performance. If you are using a super-sampled AA approach, it multiplies the number of pixel fragments we have to compute for volumetric clouds, and multiplies how much time it takes to draw them as a result.
