hey i resemble that remark friend LOL. what is wrong with potato pics?
-
hello, attach your latest DCS.LOG from \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs OR \Saved Games\DCS\Logs there are probably some clues.
-
power management has been noted in many posts as a possible solution to stuttering. i have my power plan set to ultimate.

hello this is likely an award for the oddist issue i have seen on these forums. i am not really sure where to even start. are you by chance opening DCS shortcut as admin? maybe a long repair of DCS will help. i doubt there is anything to see in it but can you attach your DCS.LOG?

Malwarebytes change - DCS wouldn't start
silverdevil replied to GunnerFlyboy's topic in General Bugs
hello pretty much every AV solutions will want block DCS files. especially after patches before the DCS files make into the safe category. the idea is add exceptions to not scan the DCS folders. do this only if you are comfortable with it. there are two camps fighting it out about this. some say do not and you should not have to add exceptions. and another says do it, why not trust DCS? AV has to ride a thin rail to be either too stringent or too weak. -
@Raviar @sleighzy sleighzy's fix is likely the true fix for the issue. you should give sleighzy the solution; while my suggestion was merely a stage in troubleshooting. i still use the launcher on my system. but only to get into the sim. all it does for me is some promotional visuals and delays me getting into the sim. as suggested you can go into that file and revert back to true to test.

hello. thanks for making another topic. i suggest going into DCS folder in Saved Games. Find the options.lua file. open it in Notepad within that file find the line ["launcher"] = true, and change to ["launcher"] = false, see if DCS opens.
-
hello. it would be best for you to post a new topic. this one is solved.

Key Bindings not saving between sessions GeForce Now
silverdevil replied to sjpateys's topic in General Bugs
thats what i thought too. i also sent him a link to info and it was not acknowledged. -
Key Bindings not saving between sessions GeForce Now
silverdevil replied to sjpateys's topic in General Bugs
sorry. i really have no idea what you mean. in my case, nvidia does nothing to save control bindings. all i can say is by default DCS keeps its own bindings in Saved Games folder in a subfolder called DCS or DCS.openbeta et al. \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\config\Input -
Key Bindings not saving between sessions GeForce Now
silverdevil replied to sjpateys's topic in General Bugs
ah i get it. are you talking about DCS controller bindings? or hotkeys and macros in the nvidia app? -
Key Bindings not saving between sessions GeForce Now
silverdevil replied to sjpateys's topic in General Bugs
hello. odd problem. keybinds are by default, in DCS case, in Saved Games. reading a bit on GFN i found this article. https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/0/3439081454536523436/ -
High mouse polling rate causes stutter
silverdevil replied to SharpeXB's topic in Game Performance Bugs
agreed. with the data we have available, there are users with other brands of mice, that do not use G HUB, that have the stuttering problem. and in our case, G HUB cannot be singled out as the culprit. as far as my system is concerned, i do not have stuttering, and i use G HUB. check out this link if you have not already. https://www.wikihow.com/Change-Mouse-Polling-Rate -
High mouse polling rate causes stutter
silverdevil replied to SharpeXB's topic in Game Performance Bugs
i was not trying to be crass. so i apologize if i came off that way. i use G HUB too. i have 11th gen i9 which does not have P/E cores. only 8 cores which are like P cores. lots of users have 14th gen (which i believe @SharpeXB has). there are many of these users with various problems. keep in mind that it is intel. they have been perceived for many years as managerial oafs. i bet they are cutting corners with chip production. back to G HUB. i have two mice. one is for DCS. it is on a desk mounted tray in the center of my desk and chair position. i use my left hand to operate in DCS. both are set as below. note that the DPI speeds matter too. DCS is not an FPS so who cares. -
High mouse polling rate causes stutter
silverdevil replied to SharpeXB's topic in Game Performance Bugs
i think everyone agrees. yet here we are helping people with stuttering. which, btw, does not happen to everyone. do you or @SharpeXB have TACVIEW running? i have seen other posts that this caused stuttering. many moons ago, i had similar problems and discovered having my windows desktop backgrounds rotating every 5 minutes or so. stopping that stopped my stuttering. when users call for help in forums, i believe it is best to follow the advice of those that take time away from enjoying the sim; if only just to test. empirical data will help if we keep track of changes and the effect of those changes on the system. -
High mouse polling rate causes stutter
silverdevil replied to SharpeXB's topic in Game Performance Bugs
@SharpeXB and @Furiz when you notice the stuttering, and go into mouse polling settings, are they set correctly? meaning, do the settings seem to revert to a different rate than what you set? i wonder if the settings are sticking? interesting suggestion here is to change to a different mouse to test. -
hello. not definite though likely to be a DNS issue. can you share two bits of info? one is the output of IPCONFIG/all from command prompt. another is the output of NSLOOKUP www.digitalcombatsimulator.com also from command prompt.

High mouse polling rate impacting framerate
silverdevil replied to Smashy's topic in Game Performance Bugs
y'all should raise another topic. this will not get the attention you need by hanging on to a solved post. -
Single Players: What would win you over to a multiplayer server?
silverdevil replied to Dangerzone's topic in DCS 2.9
lol. been there, done that. i am solely an SP user. as many say, squads are great, but the time put in to getting all the schedules together is a hindrance. i am the member of a squad. they host a PvE server. i play the same mission locally. they put a lot of time into it and it is quite fun. -
Update to 2.9.19.13478 failed or is corrupted.
silverdevil replied to Esteban73's topic in Installation Problems
no worries. good luck. -
you may want to try to run the RAM with no XMP. i hear this tip said a lot in these forums. i personally have XMP and have no issues.

hello. as @The_Nephilim mentioned you may want to try a test of the memory. memory hardware problems are not likely but can happen. you also can take the memory out of the system, make sure there is no dust on the contacts, and replace the DIMMS. make sure they are seated good. i have found in my experience that during the test, i only do one DIMM at a time. that way if there is an anomaly, you know what DIMM it failing. also check to see if you have any overclocking (ala XMP). try the sim without OC.
