• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FSX-SE AffinityMask?

I am confused about the way FSX and Win10 handles the AffinityMask setting in the cfg file.
I enter:
[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=63

in the cfg file every thing seems to be working ok until I open Task Manager to view CPU performance and I get this:

AM63.JPG

As you can see, Core0 is pegged at 99% and it stays there thru out the whole session and all other Cores fluctuate between 26% to 99% every 60 seconds which causes stutters in sim
What is it with the 60 second thing? My plane is sitting still and it still does this. Very annoying!
Now I select the details tab and set AffinityMask to all Cores from within the task manager I get this:


AM63TM.JPG



Notice how all Cores even out in usage with this annoying CPU spikes every 60 Seconds.

I don't understand the difference in setting AM in the cfg or by setting it thru Task Manager. Why the difference?
