FPS drop to single digits after a short time

Question

Hi All,

Hoping you may be able to help.

I have recently upgraded to Mac 10.14 and X-Plane 11.26.

I mainly fly for my VA using the latest version of the Zibo 738.

When XP starts up, I have excellent FPS (25-40 depending on scenery) and all is good.

However, at random times my FPS drop to single digits making it more like a slide show! And won't come back to normal range-It's very frustrating as it can be anywhere from 10 mins to 2 hours into the flight, and I have to quit as it's un useable-and causes big issues when flying online.

I have the Auto LOD plugin that helps with FPS issues in the past, but even this can't get it above single numbers.

I have attached my Log-Any ideas?

Thanks

Ryan

Hi Ryan, Thanks for your question! It looks like you have quite a few plugins installed here. I would recommend that you try removing these from your sim to check if it is possible one of these causing the slow down. Let me know if this solves the problem! Thanks

Hi Thomson,

Many thanks.

I spent the day testing and removed all plug ins and Lua scripts, which didn't make a difference.

With the help of the Brother we were noticing something was draining my CPU.

After doing some research, I found a post (Not XP related) from other people having the same issue since upgrading to OS 10.14.

Luckily I have a time machine back up so went back down to 10.13 and so far all seems back to normal again.
