It's not the Epic E1000...  I checked and my framerate is fine and on par with conditions?

 

 

I'm pulling 37 frames, which is normal? I would check you are not over your graphic card limits, if so pull the textures back a notch. my number is 3338mb textures set at high, so that would still be below a 4K card? If not I would try a complete redownload and a new install... SD

So glad you are getting such a great FPS with the Epic.You must have an amazing machine.  

I consistently get that framerate on every other plane (such as FlightFactor, SSG, Carenado), but the Epic is stuck around 9-10fps.

My machine is a configured with a Xeon 3.0 Ghz (turboboost to 4.5) with 10-cores (so 20 hyperthreads), a 2 GB SSD, 32 GB of RAM, and a Radeon Pro Vega 56 with 8 GB of VRAM.

X-plane's settings...   

Anti-aliasing is less than half.

Number of World Objects is Medium.

Reflection Detail is High, not max.

There are no other AI aircraft.

So, respectfully, I think it may have something to do with the Epic or at least it's configuration.  Even with the reflections off in the Epic's options, I'm not breaking 10fps.

Thanks for your input though!

@ Wzrdjr Are you on a Mac? i have noticed very decremental results due to the Librain effects. Switching off Librain usually fixed the problem...

Librain is not and has never been installed.  And the refections are all off in the Epic options.  So that can't be it.  Thanks for the suggestion though!

I purchased the Epic E1000 but regret it.  It's a beautifully modeled plane, but that beauty comes with a major hit in FPS, even on a modern machines with a high end video card.  I can't get above 10fps with this plane loaded, when every other high end purchased plane I have is 30fps or greater.I purchased the Epic E1000 but regret it.  It's a beautifully modeled plane, but that beauty comes with a major hit in FPS, even on a modern machine with a high end video card.  I can't get above 10fps with this plane loaded, when every other high end purchased plane I have is 30fps or greater.
