In game freezing caused by Process Lasso

BUG ALERT++++++

I run an oc on all cores to 5.2Ghz and I7 9700K a 2080Ti and m2 memory but I was getting an annoying bug both in the races and practice.

For some reason the video freezes as does the plane quite often but the sound keeps running as does time as does the ghost plane and when it restarts the video time jumps forward as does the ghost plane and your aircraft has been held back,

I thought it may have been caused by running into a death token but it happens on every racing level and also practice. It appears to be a bug not related to computer hardware as it runs perfectly fluid on m 1920 * 1080 projector screen when it does not do this game freeze.

So to be clear the game keeps running but your aircraft just holds still.

Here is something interesting is that on HWINFO it shows cores 0 t 6 with virutally less than 5% usage but core 7 is maxed out and totally bound at 100% even on low graphics.

So I went to a program I run called Process Lasso which binds applications to certain cores and for some reason it had assigned just one core out of 8 to Acro being core 7. Once I allowed acro to use all cores there problem disappeared. So it was Lasso defaulting it to just one core.

I am back in the game and its awesome now to VR mode.

Thanks for reporting this. I don't know if there's any way for us to prevent Process Lasso from restricting core usage, but we'll look into it as time allows.

I can say that I would expect very poor behavior, especially in VR, with the simulator limited to a single core. The engine threads several tasks that could certainly create stuttering if bound to one core.

Keep 'em flying!

It is a problem for Process Lassoo not Realflight as you don't need Process Lasso as Windows does a good job of managing the multicores of CPU's. Just made the note that Process Lasso will causes issues for Realflight if it latches onto just one core for processing if you forget about it and let it run in the background.
