Linux user here (I keep Windows only for DCS)..... yes 100% growth... from 1% to 2%!!! Exactly... I think people forget how many moving parts are out there... it not only DCS itself, but all HW drivers, tools, applications... whole ecosystem....

RCtrl+Pause... see it is probably due to CPU high load...

Awesome news, looking forward! btw beside my old HW... you guys rock with all effort bring Phantom to live!

With Reduced Tickrates I got up to 30-50 FPS, so definitely it helps. If I fly closer to airport with planes, there are drops to 10 FPS. I lower some graphics settings a bit and it gave some extra frames, but didn't make noticeable difference. Any other idea what else to check?

Air, I think I have model without OC capabilities...

Yeah, maybe... need check what which one will fit into motherboard's socket and will be supported by....

Lucky you... I use MT version... and funny thing no matter if I get middle graphics settings (which use in all other modules) or the lowest effect is the same just 20-30 FPS (i7 7700 32 GB RAM with GTX1080 8GB)..... All other modules I got ~90FPS

if you want play GPU extensive game (DCS here) using VirtualBox/KVM/VMware (with Windows as a guest OS) this is the way....

I think I got similar problem: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/349544-cpu-bound-with-only-20-30-fps-even-with-lowest-settings/

No any regular virtualization is no option for such heavy taks like DCS... you need a * PCI passthrough so guess OS can access GPU directly through virtualization "barrier". Problem is it is not easy to setup and you need HW motherboard which support it and allow two 2 GPUs and switch between them. Your local OS (host) could use integrated GPU. * CPU must support VT-X/AMD-V: Here is quite old guide (just as example): https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Multiheaded-NVIDIA-Gaming-using-Ubuntu-14-04-KVM-585/ PCI passthrough requires IOMMU (Intel VT-d) support from the motherboard chipset, from the motherboard BIOS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input–output_memory_management_unit Here: some nice blogs you may found useful: http://michaelmk.blogspot.fi/2012/06/gaming-on-gentoolinux-via-xen.html http://michaelmk.blogspot.fi/2012/08/gentooxen-part-two.html http://michaelmk.blogspot.fi/2013/03/gentooxen-gaming-part-three.html and some HW stuff: http://www.overclock.net/t/1307834/xen-vga-passthrough-compatible-graphics-adapters http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XenVGAPassthroughTestedAdapters and some video guide: www_youtube.com/embed/KVDUs019IB8?enablejsapi=1&iv_load_policy=3&autoplay=1

I tend to disagree.... with F-4 I got: - CPU bound 30 FPS - CPU lode is 70% (task mgr) - GPU load is 30% (task mgr) with F-18 I got: - GPU bound 90 FPS - CPU load is 40% (task mgr) - GPU load is 95%(task mgr)

I think the best place to report this is here: Issues · Heatblur-Simulations/f-4e-manual (github.com) then even somebody from community (i.e. me ) can fix this and HB just accept it

"Kind-of / semi" official guide for Linux/SteamDeck... maybe some useful detail to incorporate into repository same story with my... I have windows10 only for DCS... I would love clean up SDD and install Arch or something....

Looks like starting F-4 is a huge CPU performance impact. With Ka-50, F-14 etc. on the ramp in Caucasus map I got 80-90 FPS But in F-4 (same scenario) I got 20-30 FPS and FPS pop-up says CPU bound I try follow tip from user “Mederlock”: in dcs.log I see, so in my case it really does not matter (however I try anyway): 2024-05-24 10:37:21.038 INFO EDCORE (Main): system affinity mask: 11111111 2024-05-24 10:37:21.038 INFO EDCORE (Main): process affinity mask: 11111111 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz [1x L3 caches] 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): CPU has uniform cache size 8 MB (per cache) 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): all CPU cores have the same efficiency class 0 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): all CPU cores have the same performance class 0 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): common cores: {4, 5, 6, 7} 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): render cores: {0, 1, 2, 3} 2024-05-24 10:37:21.042 INFO EDCORE (Main): IO cores: {} 2024-05-24 10:37:23.113 INFO EDCORE (Main): pause10: 0.037503 us (std dev: 0.058880) 2024-05-24 10:37:23.113 INFO EDCORE (Main): pause10: 1311 cycles (std dev: 1858.1) 2024-05-24 10:37:23.114 INFO EDCORE (Main): Created boot pool: n:8 I do not have high end PC i7 7700 with 1080 8 GB and 32 GB RAM but go form 80 to 30 FPS is really low (during flight and maneuvers I got ~10 FPS) But here a kicker I set all setting to lowest possible values and no change at all still 20-30 FPS See normal and low settings in screen shot. If this a problem with F-4 itself (not my system or some my specific problem) I'm willing to help and debug and troubleshooting. It easy reproduceable in my system I would like to pin point root cause, I can collect any logs run any diagnostic or even some additional tools to solve issue out. Thx! PS. I noticed during starting/loading F-4 mission I hit 32 Gb RAM usage.... just before window with Fly button, and then it drops....

Hi, I didn't noticed you ask question you mean this https://www.evga.com/articles/archive/01195/evga-z10-keyboard/default.asp ? Short answer no.... Longer... No, because: 1. after quick search, I didn't find way to custom access to LCD itself 2. I do not have this HW, to test and check what I can do with it... sorry Only Logitech G13, G15 (v1 and v2), G510 and G19 PS. https://forums.evga.com/Z10-Keyboard-Code-to-write-text-to-the-LCD-display-m3012492.aspx

Hello, I believe one day I saw somewhere... press materials: official logo, banners etc. I would like add into my app (which is for DCS players) with link to DCS web site and disclaimer with logo ownership Is there some official place???

I got problem with DCS-BIOS and SimShaker 2.6.8.

Thx for nice words... but I a bit do not get it... you are using DCSpy with FalconBMS?!?!?!? It is workng? Or try figure out how to addopt.... general to get dcspy woking with falcon shouiuld be not hard... we/i/you need some tool with export falcon data over network/UDP (this is done by DCS-BIOS) Edit: check this out..... https://www.facebook.com/FalconBMS4/photos/a.298473543505522/1767453959940799/

Hi target... I create fork of specelUFC https://github.com/emcek/dcspy if you like to try, I actively maintain it, so if you find any problems with installation or using it (and I'm willing to add any new features) You can contact me here https://discord.gg/SP5Yjx3 or dcspy forum thread

I see... Yes I download form GitHub... but UFC is working but I can not force AoA and NWS indexers to working.... What I need to add to default Config.lua?

Question: for AoA Indexer should I add: ExportScript.Config.ExportXSD = true (where X is Your device group to which the IP of the device from the DCS AoA Indexer is assigned) ... ExportScript.Config.ExportSelfData = true like in Readme because in new config.lua I see: ExportScript.Config.Export4Nav = true; -- true if you want to show position on map on this device ... ExportScript.Config.WriteNavFile = false; and set WriteNavFile to ture
