it would be very useful when clicking on a unit to have its radio frequency (on the ingame map).

That's right, anyway a licence w10 is cheap so it's not a problem. DCS like P3D for example runs a lot better if on a dedicated ssd os lighter than the heavy windows full of apps. Also you can easier manage services, processus, etc...

No it will not, I am absolutely sure (clone).

Thanks for this great mod ! Someone knows the best "MAXSIZE" setting for a Vive Pro ?

RRRRrrr... it's really strange but I noticed that when I pass Mach 3.0 in vertical downhill my wings come off !! I am joking ;-) :smilewink:

Hello If I can afford a tip, rather than buying a 1 TB SSD, I would rather have a smaller but high quality NVme drive like the Samsung 970 Pro but fully dedicated to DCS with its own operating system perfectly clean, using dual boot. Regarding the SLI, Yes "it works" but I certainly will not buy 2 GTX1080 now while the new GTX1180 come out in 3 months with considerably higher perfs because the efficiency of SLI on DCS remains modest anyway... Also, if I can, I would probably not choose 8700k for this usage cause it has only 16 PCI-E lanes. You need 32 lanes only for Gpu's and probably 4 more for nvme drive. Maybe yesterday another controler card and your config will seriously bottlenecking. This is why I run a 6850k [emoji106]

Ok thank you... I tried ;-)

Yes this is what I actually do, but I would like to know if maybe there is a way without deactivate them. I think it could be cause it's absolute same hardware (but not same sid it's true).

Hello What is the best practice method if you prefer to reinstall Windows 10 during each major os update ? I use a dedicated os for DCS that I want clean and lighter as possible and I know it... it will start to get excited ^^ So I will do something and prepare myself to upgrade to spring update. So I take the risk by asking this question... lol If I copy all EA folders, is there a way to save activation keys and reinsert them in the new os registry (on the same machine obviously) ? Thank you !

Thank you Mustang !

I don't know how it is IRL but I suppose even if it's difficult to see aircrafts in the immensity of the sky, metallic objects must refracted light and our eyes are efficient to detect moving objects and this doesn't work on screen. Sorry for English...

Hi ! When you say your cpu reach 43%, you mean the cpu package or the core the most utilized ?

Same here in 3440x1440 34"

Shadow ?

Oups I didn't see that ! I was sure you have also 2x gtx1080 that's what I insist lol Sorry :doh:

I full agree with you. Since the beginning i search in parallel around cpu/adaptative/avx or turbo boost than is very inclusive in broadwell-e. I just turn ht on to look eventually. I think g-sync is full off now. Thanks I did a last test on template mission below wich is full of grounds templates and cpu heavy with HT ON and SLI ON and same results. Around 40 fps. It's curious you reach so much fps. Don't you have one core of your cpu full ? With 6 or 12 cores, one reach quite often 100%. So if my cpu is not working as it should so I could maybe have a SLI really effficient if I find

Yes I know that but take a look to video memory. It's what I investigate :smilewink: To activate SLI, only one flag is necessary and with AFR2 I obtain better results than with another else profile but not as good as sli activated on desktop and not in inspector; As in the test attached with both SLI off and SLI on, I don't get better results and not any fps but stutters when SLI on but I am quite sure than it work better SLI off WITH one second card with SLI on in the nvidia control panel. I don't affirm anything but as I know DCS 3d engine is really not SLI complient and as I read somewhere the road is more to mgpu. So I think maybe there is something to find here... or not ;-)

Awesome... like all your skins !

Thanks for your answer ! Don't worry ;-) it's only for me and for solos missions. I rarely play multiplayers (and I respect others work).

I thank you for your advices, like you see, I continue investigations ;-)

Hi, good I just spent more than 12 hours non stop specifically on this problem and then I stop before becoming completely dumb... I tried dozens of settings in all directions and restarted the game at least a hundred times. The worst thing is that I do not have a final opinion yet but one thing is certain, it is much more complicated than it seems. SLI in the strict sense of the term works if you want but does not have any interest in my opinion. In my opinion we are more on a form of multi gpu than on a real sli. In all possible configurations, flags, options, I have never won a single fps but often lost a lot. But beware, by cons, having 2 cards with the SLI mode enabled in the Nvidia control panel can help greatly because even without any SLI options activated in inspector, it sensor monitoring is very clear, the video memory of both cards is activated (but I don't think shared). I also think SLI Compatibility Bits are useless until we are exactly sure of what we are doing. I also work perfectly whitout select any of them. The trap of GPU sharing is that it requires a lot of CPU resources or if it is suitable for all small missions, as soon as you find yourself on a very large map with lots of units, that's the drama. .. I think we have a fluid (the flow of images) and as a metaphor we have two glasses and the goal is that they have to be filled half each to cope with all CPU or GPU load situations. We can have the impression that it is won until the moment when everything collapses because the processor can't keep up the rhythm (for info I turn with 6 cores @ 4.4Ghz on a 40 lines pci-e / 32Gb@3000 Ram and a Samsung Pro M2 SSD specially assigned to DCS and therefore 2 GTX1080@x16 both. I also struggle because of the G-Sync that puts the mess is that I had trouble turning off. Finally here I am so pissed off that I do not even have the courage to detail but if it ever interested someone, here are my final parameters... anyway for now ... I precise that's only my opinion regarding my hardware and for sure I respect others opinions and continu to learn ;-) Have a good day my friends! (hope better than me lol) reshade3 settings.zip

Yes for sure !

Thank you ! I tested the two profiles and I obten exactly same results than mine which is quite different althougt I'm pretty sure mine work better on my config. I share you mine if you want to test. You may try the template mission bellow to see if you have the same problem
