High VRAM Usage XP11 rc1

[gcbraun]

I don´t know why, but from one moment to the other sometimes my VRAM usage explodes, from around 5gb to 10 or 11gb in a matter or 1 or 2 seconds. I do have a Geforce 1080Ti with 11Gb VRAM, so when it approaches this threshold, the sim slows down dramatically.

I am flying with the Pipistrel Panthera using default scenery, default clouds and sky and NOAA weather. Below are my X-Plane settings:

I saw you also posted that on the x-plane.org forum at

The first answer suggested to roll back to an older NVIDIA driver

Yes, I saw it. Can´t do it because I am using 1080 Ti that requires the newest drivers.

Solved the issue. It was caused by an incompatibility between GIZMO and the latest version of xSqwawkbox. In fact, GIZMO was causing all sorts of weird behaviors, including messing up with the flight controls. Removing this pesky plugin resolved a bunch of issues I was having. Considering that the IXEG has not been updated yet, it is not a big deal.

Very true. Gizmo sucks. I was posting the crashes it provided when accessing datarefs with high refresh rates. IXEG guys are very good modellers and flight engineers but poor programmers since they selected this plugin
