Ahem.. "More info provided"

Can easily take an extra patient. Huey.mp4

Thx for yer replies, guys. Not easy to make a screenshot; Must be a sunset-ish mission, and I must make a turn at a certain angle to the sun. Will try a repair. Here is my log at least: Edit: and a screenshot I took after repair: (Click image to full size, and you'll see the pixles) dcs.log

like a checkerboard in variants of yellow. Is this just on my rig, or a know thing?

DCS Kola map forum: null

Kola map Norway, south of Bodø, more than half of the region:

As I understand it, a multicore CPU has a main core. Heavy programs seek to use it, because it is faster than the rest. On my system, I found that during problematic performance periods, my Core#4 was maxed out: 100% usage. There was a clear correlation between high stress on that core and a bad flying experience. It was easy to see that piserver.exe was going kinda rogue at times, AND using that same core. I mentioned the symptoms in an earlier thread before I knew what caused it with: "Sometimes DCS wakes up on the wrong foot/side of its bed." (or smth. like that) It was not problematic on every "session" but so often, I was hesitant to even start DCS. Now it is stable, and beautiful, and best of all: It stays that way. (By the way: I'm considering a Buttkicker, but I'm on the 2nd floor, and I wonder if it makes any noise downstairs?)

I've got a Marshall! (Sry for the motion blur. It is dark here in my "Cockpit")

Yer very welcome, mate! (Is that "Marshall" as opposed to "Fender"?)

Then this tip is not for you. There are a lot of other people seeking better performance. I also thought that was obvious.

No more max out of CPU. I thought that was obvious.

The "pi_server.exe" use a lot of CPU. Often as much as 20% And on my PC it uses core#4 -same as main core for DCS. This caused my CPU to max in almost all my DCS sessions. So I re-installed process lasso, and made sure pi_server.exe has no access to this core. Voila!

Latest, and latest! I allways install updates. And one more thing: I use process lasso to keep the "Pi_server.exe" away from my core#4 which is the DCS' main CPU core. If they share, the core will (often) max out.

Note: Visible range to Ultra!

Yes. In DCS settings. I currently have the best graphics AND perfomance ever! I'm not using DLSS. I shall try to post more of my settings later, but here are nVidia settings for now: null Pimax play settings. (I use M'bucchias Quadviews) GPU upscaling off! null null

Thx! :) Will not be necessary. In all fairness, I'm in such a good place atm. with the Pimax and DCS, I need not experiment, Performance is great, graphics are stunning, and these days my mood is accordingly a happy one.

Thank you! I didn't know that. Never testet Desktop view, but I just tested it, and it is exactly what I wanted. -There all the time. Edit: Good lord it was not; DCS started in a window within desktop view. My PC grinding to a halt. And there was no way to end DV, but to exit pimax play. I'm never doing that again..

Latest update had "GPU upscaling" on by default; Looked terrible. Turning it off, I now have best perfomance/eyecandy ever. Also, try the MSAA 4x and no DLSS.

You should ditch the headset! I recommend you have world sounds routed to ordinary speakers/PC speakers. You can leave radios to Pimax headset as it does not need much quality. It is an easy setup in DCS menu.

Looking good! -Would be nice if I could access the settings with the headset on, though. Because, cumbersome. Edit: And start DCS without taking them off after Pimax play has loaded. Then maybe the set would be aware of my head position.

Cockpit MFD resolution was set to 512. I thought ed had reduced quality to match the sniper pod. Luckily not. The update changed value to 512 in settings.

When you activate QuadViews in DCS, do you also activate Eye tracking? (If you do, don't)

I've had it happen two times. No idea why, I'm afraid..

Thanks, but I don't know what you are talking about. What game settings? -These are folders..

I see you have not ticked "Pimax Central priority rendering" either. I will try that also. Maybe that'll help. Edit: Didn't help.
