Hello, I am fairly new to DCS and have encountered my first issue. After the most recent update (DCS 2.9.13.6818.2), the game is unplayable for me. The issue I have is whenever I press start/fly and every loads in, the FPS begin to slowly drop until its unplayable. They go from being around 150 fps to around 26fps. It does not matter if I start in the air or on the ground they still drop. I also noticed that as the FPS is dropping so is the GPU utilization. The weird thing is, if I crash the aircraft then press F2/F3 to view the other aircraft the frames jump back up to normal again.
I have updated my graphics card drivers, played around with the graphics setting within DCS, use different modules, and nothing has improved.
Any suggestions?
