Title: Severe stutters with update 10
Post by: Ack-Ack on November 09, 2016, 11:01:46 PM
Running the DX11 version of AH3 and I experience severe stutters at the occasional base and near CVs.  I do not suffer a loss of frame rates, they stay steady at 59-60fps but the stutters are so severe that when it happens the game is pretty much unplayable.  I don't know if the AH film recorder will show it (I forgot to record on Shadowplay) but I've attached it to this post along with my DXDiag.

My stutters got better but white screen freezes dramatically went up.

Experienced my very first screen freeze since alpha even.  Today's map SFMA 2016, climbing away from field 39 heading west on auto climb and frame rates drastically dropped in an UNUSUAL area.  FPS dropped from steady 57- 59 to 15-29 in the most unusual place on the map.  I was high in the sky and away from any ground structures, ack or clouds.  FPS even improved once I did see clouds.  I was able to recreate the conditions on 2 other flights.

Attached the psave:

74088,6308,420424,2.0,14.6,86.9
sfma2016
FOV = 98.1

Found my screen stutters, my Firewall was set on "Automatic" switched it to "Interactive" stutters stopped. I was getting stutters all the time, in gv's or planes. As of today everything is back to normal.

dx11 is a bit buggy, think hitech is aware of it and is working on it.  I play dx11 and I do get the stutters several times an hour.  i just put up with it.

AVG and Windows 7

Firewall active on both of them? I'm asking because I use the native firewall of Win7 in the default mode.

No just the AVG. I would change to something else for Anti-Virus, but I've never had any problems with AVG so far.

Rgr, thanks, I already thought I've missed a feature of the Windows Firewall.

Severe jitters when gunning on a CV using the Land or Sea mode gun site. It jumps so bad the site is useless. This started with this last update. It gets worse when you zoom in the site.

DX11 version I do not play in DX9

Since the latest update I've also seen severe stutters with DX11 but not DX9.  Don't think it can be the computer or net because the stutters instantly go away when switched from DX11 to DX9 (but I don't know enough to be sure).

(Not on my gaming computer so no DXdiag.)

For what its worth I had all sorts of issues with free AVG, stutters - pauses, so I switched to Avira which seemed better but it caused issues with installing the AH3 beta files.  Knock on wood but ever since I went to Eset Nod32 all is good

Here's another example of the "stutters".  Please note that this is different than the micro-freezes, where the game freezes for a second or so.

Do you happen to have a native AHF film of the same period?  We need both.

Interesting FPS seemed steady at 59....but looked like  you were sub 30 FPS from watching the screen.

I don't get these, just the micro freezes.

Ack-Ack  Are you running DX9 or DX11?  I see stutters in DX11 but not in DX9.

I'll check to see if I have the .ahf film, if not it happens quite frequently that I can get another film of it occurring.

We need the pair.  Chances are, the issue will not show up in the regular film, but the regular film gives us details about what was going on at the time it occurs.

Appreciate it.
