[2020] My Fix for Frametime/FPS Spikes exactly every 30 seconds

So after countless of hours troubleshooting i finally got rid of the periodic 30s fps drops I was having with this game and this game only.

Afterburner FrametimeI've read several post with ppl having the same issue and since no one from Ubisoft Support was actually able to point me in the right direction, I will post here how I managed to find the problem.

The way I found the conflicting software was by running the game and at the same time run a programm called MultiMon to monitor my "File System". After a few minutes i stopped the monitoring and by sorting out the Hyperscape.exe logs I saw some Buffer Overflow errors caused apparently in my case by Discord (maybe a faulty install) even though I don't even have the app actively running (also not as a background proccess).So after uninstalling Discord (which kind of was buggy, as f.e. it didn't remove the taskbar shortcut) and clearing the registry of Discord entries the game ran absolutely smooth and after reinstalling Discord it remained without problems.So this is how fixed the issue. I hope this also helps the game devs sorten out problems with conflicting software as this is the only game that caused this issue on my PC. Maybe other software other than Discord may cause this or a similar effect. In that case I would also recommend you to try out MultiMon and see what errors the game is causing for you.I hope this post helps.

*Update:

So the stutters reappeared, so I suggest not reinstalling Discord for smooth HyperScape. In case the game devs read this, it seems the game is running into asynchronicity issues with discord_game_sdk_x64.dll. Pls fix!

Make sure the folder with this file also gets deleted (I think it was in /appdata/roaming/discord).
