Fix for loading stutter?

[ironk79]

I am sure everyone expiriences loading stutter at the beginning of every mission, even with quick missions.

But is there a solution or "fix" for the stutter you get when looking around and/or zooming in a new direction?

After the "first" stuttery zoom, lets say while looking over your left, the following zoom is buttery smooth, always, so its not GPU related.

Is there a way to preload data or expand the area that is preloaded?

BTW, have been flying coop missions on my dedicated server, made the already quite smooth gameplay even smoother.

Only downside, large numbers of AI still bring fps down on its knees. Can a potent (CPU single core performance, RAM is neglegtable) dedicated server help with this, anyone expirience with it?

in VR I always look around to get the environment/plane fully loaded in before take off.

 

I run box of an ssd.

Are you by chance running with Hyper Threading enabled  on that CPU?

If so you might try disabling HT in your bios and see if that helps on this.

I get this with HT off on my CPU. I assume it’s delayed loading/compilation of something, maybe shaders or something. Once I’ve zoomed once it’s much smoother.

Will have to look into it, not sure if HT is active at the moment. i will report.

[ironk79]

HT was indeed deactivated. enableing seems to improve the issue a bit

turn on Shader Cache in Nvidia control panel..

It will stutter the first time but thats about it.

Or im just lucky.

will definetly try, thanks!

Slight necropost here but I've been encountering this sort of loading stutter, even made a report some time ago here:

It even occurs with cities. I can fly north to south over Cologne for example and it'll stutter once, if I circle back and fly over the same section of the city it'll be smooth. Switch it up and fly east to west and the same situation as new sections of the city are loaded, after it's all loaded then flying over it in any direction is stutter-free.

Might as well mention that sadly this specific type of stutter is still with us. Same repro, same effect - no framedrop, no registered frametime inconsistency; rendering just freezes as if a synchronous function is taking too long to respond.
