I’ve recently started using Process Lasso to make most use of my new AMD 9950X3D CPU, making sure any processes related to MSFS ends up on the cache CCD. I’ve already done this for FlightSimulator.exe itself but I’ve also added some Steam VR processes since I do all my flying in VR. This has already increased my FPS and the overall smoothness quite significantly.
Since I know from experience how lots of online traffic can have a rather big impact on your performance, I was thinking it would probably make sense to also make sure vPilot ends up on the cache CCD.
What I would like to ask you is if there’s any other process other than vPilot.exe I should add to make sure I get the best possible performance when it comes to model matching when flying online on Vatsim using vPilot?
Since all the heavy lifting is done by MSFS (rendering all the aircraft models) I don’t know if you’ll see any noticeable performance improvement from assigning CPU affinity for the vPilot.exe process, but it can’t hurt to try. vPilot does do some basic math to interpolate the location and orientation of each aircraft model, so maybe you’ll get some benefit there. Let me know how it goes.
Just had an amazing flight where I departed a fairly busy Oslo Gardemoen and flew to Alta in the very, very far north of Norway.
The performance was superb even at Oslo Gardemoen which is a quite big and complex payware airport and with online traffic as mentioned.
How much adding vPilot to the cache CCD was part of this I’m not sure but either way, this Process Lasso software when properly configured in combination with a 9950X3D and a 5090 in a MeganeX Superlight 8K HMD…don’t think this hobby can get much better
