As I mentioned at the other site, you can run this in scan mode, and when I did the program didn't find any files with this problem in the OBD folders.

Aaah, were there but a single, magic bullet, And that I could shoot it into my beloved WOFF’s heart, And in the doing kill not her wondrous goodness But instead send to the depths of Hades the one blight, That, which prevents my love’s perfection. To end the wretched stutter that taunts and torments her, and I. That Satan’s stammer that, in its own evil humour, Hides itself away until my love and I believe it gone, Only to slink back from its dark place to torment and taunt anew. Out, out dam’d stutter! Oh if I could command it thus, to be gone so simply, And that it would have died truly henceforth. There would be perfect time then for my WOFF and I.
(from: Much Ado About WOFFing, Act 4, Scene 2)

. Gawd, I hope not Adger! And Gecko, I will also add this is no slight on you for posting that bit of software as a possible fix. Hellshade, not all the stutters. Most, but not all. Even with my new build, which is lightning fast and loads and plays WOFF like a dream, there are still a few micro-stutters every now and then, usually about 7-8 seconds after a flight begins, in maybe 3 out of 10 flights. Also rarely, and I do mean rarely, when a massive furball and/or lots of ground activity is loading, in particular truck convoys, (which I've noted before seem to be a giant resource hog). I have stated several times now over the last couple of years, (at least), that I no longer believe it is possible to eliminate ALL the stutters, simply because the old CFS3 "pipeline" is not capable of handling the huge increase in volume being pushed through it by all the wonderful WOFF enhancements. And as Pol and others here have rightly said, every sim has little glitches and hiccups from time to time, so learn to live with it and don't let it spoil the fun. I've honestly reached the point where I don't notice them anymore, unless I am making a concerted effort to look for them. Oh,and Robert - me, a lofty spirit? To quote my current DID pilot, "HAW!" .

. Hellshade, that should be a monster gaming build when you're done with it, especially if you link it up with one of the late gen GPUs! As point of reference to my above outline of the remaining stutters I have, here are my current build specs: CPU: Intel Core i5-10600K Comet Lake, OC’d through the AI Suite to 5.0GHz CPU Fan: Arctic Super Cooler Memory: Corsair Vengeance 32gb (2 x 16gb) LPX DDR4 3200 Mobo: ASUS Prime Z490-A Hard Drives: 2 Western Digital BLACK 500GB SN750 M.2 SSDs ; 1 Western Digital 640 GB Caviar Black SATA for onboard file storage Opti Drive: LG 22X DVD+/RW Dual Layer SATA Rewrite Video Cards: 2 EVGA RTX 2070 Super FTW3 Ultras with NVLink SLI Bridge PS: Corsair HX 850 Watt OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit LG 34-Inch 21:9 curved IPS monitor with G-SYNC, 2560x1080 native resolution Five large case fans, plus the PS, CPU, mobo, and card fans, (for a grand total of fourteen fans) Saitek AV8R joystick Saitek Pro Flight rudder pedals Track IR4 camera with latest IR5 software I have the OS and other assorted programs on the C drive, and WOFF PE only on the D drive. Everything else in on either the old SATA drive or the 1TB external drive I have plugged in. As you can see, while not the latest cutting edge technology, this is none-the-less a giant killer more than capable of keeping up with even the latest GPUs out there. So if this set-up cannot totally eradicate the odd stutters, well ... .

Haha me too Lou . I agree with your posting in its entirety , I’ve personally noticed them a bit more since I moved my install from my Win7 boot to my Win10 boot, coincidence? Possibly. Not to say they weren’t there before but I never really noticed them, in fact I very rarely notice them now but yep they are there and like you’ve said it’s usually during the first 10 seconds of flight but..they never distract me from flying and enjoying this incredible piece of software. I purchased MSFS 2020 on release, an incredible imo piece of work but the latest UK update has for me and many others been a disaster regarding stutters and big FPS drops, flying over London is a slow motion slideshow ..and that’s with a large team and a large budget, yes it’s much larger in scale but as previously mentioned by others I believe most sims and non sims (Metro exodus for 1 example) suffer from them, tbh the stutters are for me personally Wayyy more noticeable in those AAA titles I’ve mentioned than I’ve ever experienced in WOFF.

. Adger, thanks for sharing your experiences with MSFS 2020 and the last update. I'd been considering buying it but have held off as I've read other places that it's a bit hinky in the "smooth gameplay" department, unless you are running a $4000+ state-of-the-art mega gaming computer. Besides, I can't find enough hours in the day to fully appreciate the one flying sim I do indulge in, so there's that too. Robert, now you have a PM from me! Hellshade, you may have a stimulus check coming as well that could cover the cost of the new card quite nicely. .

Hellshade,
Briefly, so as not to derail the thread I just built a new rig with a 5600x. Still rocking a 1070 due to the GPU market madness. I'm hoping Elon will crash the Crypto market so the rest of us can get our hands on the new cards, but that's a rant for a separate thread. Even with the Antediluvian GPU, WOFF is extremely fast. Not done much flying with it yet, but Kaiserschlacht cometh soon in the DID Campaign. For reference, my previous build with the same card was an i5-6600K OC'd to 4.4 GHz.
Testing the new build on 3DMark Firestrike gave a Physics score of 24,795 with standard DOCP/XMP boost. 18,350 Graphics and 7869 Combined. These latter two are nothing to write home about and a function of the 1070. The Physics score, OTOH is up there. Not drilled down on a hardcore overclock yet. When I make some time for testing, I'll revive my Next 5 year build thread. I still have the old rig intact so it will be easy enough to pop the 1070 back in and take some benchmarks.
As for the word the Knights Who Play WOFF cannot hear,
"He said it again!" "AHHHHH, now I said it. AHHHH."
Very rare with the old setup. I'm in the habit of doing the external view spin to load the textures. Flying over Paschendaele on 12 October 1917 resulted in an fps drop but for the most part the old rig was 60-75fps on my older 32" 2K 75hz monitor. New monitor does 144hz so I've set it to 1/2 frame rate in Nvidia inpector. Pegged at 72fps for the most part.

No worries at all Lou ,and I don’t want to stay Off topic but fwiw if you’ve any interest in non combat aviation simming I really do recommend it. I’ve just shy of 200 hrs mostly in the A320 Neo and Cessna 172 and it’s been worth every penny, it’s simply breathtaking at times. EDIT: Back on topic @GECKO..cheers for the link i gave it a whirl and i get this message on WOFF and WOTR "No DXT3/DXT5 compressed textures found in the path selected".

If you're looking to upgrade your CPU/Motherboard, I'd wait and see the prices for the intel 11 gen CPUs which are scheduled to come out at the end of this month. Have to wait and see what else comes out on it but so far this is what I'm seeing on the intel front. Early leaked i7-11700k benchmarks leaked
