Zephyr SIM Performance Issues
Zephyr Versions 1.10.5 and 1.10.7 have some known performance issues and may require some users to rollback to a previously performant version until we can solve the issues in a later update. Some computers that are at or below or minimum requirements (https://wiki.zephyr-sim.com/system-requirements) that cannot achieve >30FPS (frames per second) will experience a "drone wobble". This may result in the drone shaking and moving on its own without any input in the controller. There's two steps to solve the issue for the time being:
Try to reduce graphics settings to achieve a higher FPS
Rollback to a previously performant version
Reduce Graphics Settings Try navigating to Main Menu -> Settings and adjusting your Graphics Settings to the following:
Resolution -> Lower to an acceptable resolution
Weather System -> Off
Grass System -> Off
Graphic Quality -> Fastest
Rollback to previous performant version If nothing above solves your issue, you may want to roll back to a previously performant version of Zephyr (details below) To rollback to a previous version of Zephyr:
Open the Little Arms Launcher and login
On the Zephyr page, click the three dots icon
Click "App Settings"
Toggle "Enable selective version management" to "ON" (the toggle should be positioned to the right)
Click "Back" to go back to the Zephyr page
Click the downward arrow on the green button
Hover over "Revert to"
Click on "Version 1.8.171"
Let the Launcher revert
Click "Launch Current Version" below the green button when it become available
The next update will aim to alleviate this issue; however, running the simulator at less than 30FPS is never recommended.
