INSTALLATION FOR Prepar3D v3:

SetupPath="E:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\"

Checking version of the Prepar3D v3 EXE:

... Version 3.0.10.14945  (Need at least 1.0.677.0)

Checking compatibility with installed SimConnect:

Checking if there's already a version of FSUIPC4 installed in:

       E:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL

... Version 4.946 found.

Prepar3D v3 Modules folder already exists.

Okay -- installed FSUIPC4 into "E:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL"

Looking for the current user's Application Data path: 

... found as "C:\Users\Remco Sol\AppData\Roaming"

Now finding \Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Prepar3D.CFG for all users, including this one

Looking in "C:\Users\All Users\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No Prepar3D.CFG there

Looking in "C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming"

Now checking DLL.XML ...

... There is a previous DLL.XML, checking for FSUIPC4 section.

... FSUIPC4 section already exists but will be replaced.

     (for FSUIPC4, without Loader)

... FSUIPC4 section of DLL.XML written okay

Now checking for a SimConnect.XML file ...

... No SimConnect.XML file found. This is okay.

"Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder already exists.

Now installing the Prepar3D SimConnect interface for FSUIPC4 into the "Modules" folder:

   Installed "SimConnectP3D2.dll" okay

Is it simconnect?

 

I have  deleted shaders and .cfg but no difference . It runs smooth for 3 seconds and then a stutter period comes on. like a cycle. It ran smooth also with 60 fps but now 3 sec 60 fps then 45 etc etc.

 

( 60 fps not used during logfile)

Can it be the auto save feature ? Or an incorrect removal of v 4.95 on my part ( xml.dll) ?

 

If you didn't turn the autosave on (it's off by default), it couldn't be that, and certainly not every 3 seconds -- maybe every 60.  And since your stuttering continued when you removed FSUIPC, it obviously cannot be involved now, can it?

 

BTW, where did you get version 4.95 from? I've not released such a version yet! The ONLY version currently suitable for use with P3D version 3 is 4.946.

My appologies, it is 4.946 ( it was late last night ;)  ). The problem has been fixed ! as you said it was not fsuipc  but something other very interesting was at the base of the problem....

 

Just before the install i changed one other thing. The water detail level was changed from Ultra to medium. This causes the stutters. For some reason it has to go to ultra to be smooth..... sounds too good to be true...... thank you for your support!

Aha, interesting indeed! I think you need to report that as a bug to Lockheed Martin!

 

Thanks for getting back with the answer!
