+1 for the bug spot.

Westland Wessex :)

Huh? You don't need a core dedicated to a VM. I mean you can, if you want bad performance.

Threads having NOTHING to do with cores. Just because you spawn a thread does not mean it uses a core to execute on it. Take it from a software developer. You can have as many cores as you want (or just one core), this doesn't determine the number of threads you can use. Number of cores assists in efficient processing (as does HT). The software needs to be aware of the number of possible logical and physical processors and this is usually determined at compile time, or in the case of a interpreted language (such as .NET) the MSIL compiler will dynamically assign tasks over cores.

Thanks for the tips. I know Hz for Hz is never a direct comparison, but Intel doesn't have such a huge edge as to cause issues like this. That smacks of Intel elitism to be perfectly frank. I've used AMD cpus for a long time (the last time I had a Intel based PC was back in 2001). I'm not going to get into an Intel v AMD debate, because the performance difference does not justify Intels premium price tag. Besides, I did say CPU usage was low. If AMD was struggling we'd see a higher percentage in usage.

No, they were disabled. I know CF causes issues. I'll try again with a different aircraft.

The two cores that it's using are not maxed out. At all.

Thanks. I have no doubt that it'll be fixed. It's extremely frustrating though.

I'm using 14.4 (the latest WHQL).

Not true. I've had this sim running a 40 to 60 fps. Either way, to discount a good proportion of the DCS membership on the CPU doesn't help matters.

Thanks. But it doesn't make a difference what module I am using. This isn't a MiG21 issue.

The Mig21 has finally tempted me back to DCS. Initially I was awaiting EDGE before I jumped back in. The reason i stopped was extremely bad performance. My PC specification is in my signature. I did a quick test and here are the results. Crossfire was disabled for this test. Take a look at these images http://imgur.com/a/oE2tG Note the FPS counter in the top right and then take a look at the GPU usage level. Why is this? The game is practically unplayable because no matter what I do, FPS is appallingly bad. CPU usage was 15% also. Can anyone help with this?

Awesome. Will this be available on ED shop or on the Leatherneck website?

Ok just bought ever module I didn't have... Sabre, P51D, Dora, BF109 pre-order Mi8 A mere $156 worth :D

Sorry, misread. Thought he meant TAD. Theres a round about way to triangulate a thread based on RWR position but I'm not going to go into that. I think in RL it is possible but not reflected in the sim

Yes. With your TAD as SOI, move the cursor over the red flashing triangle. DMS Forward Short, then DMS Forward Long to mark SPI. TWS Forward long to slew sensors to SPI. (Edit, from memory, DMS/TWS may be the other way around)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Electric_Lightning Belsimtek please! ;) I would love to see this developed. I would be a good match for MiG21 I think

You're also forgetting the Handley Page Victor. Which was a better bomber than the Vulcan. Arguably.

B52 please. Since we have quite a few cold war era aircraft, this would suit.

I made a thread a while ago about it. I was getting super bad FPS at airfields (fly not too bad) and just general bad performance. Maybe I'll look into it again.

I haven't booted up DCS for 6 months because performance is so bad. I hope to be playing again with good frame rates by the time DCS 2.0 comes along.

An F18C with L39 and Libya setting. This would be perfect!

Very excited for Hornet! Even more excited for dedicated server and the possibilities for persistent war scenarios!

We are not counting the fact that EDGE has taken up a lot of time. It would make sense to announce more aircraft after EDGE release. After all the 109 was announced and no one had the slightest clue that was coming.

Worth a read
