DSC: A-10 is not Playaple, planes corrupted and the it's very slow

I downloaded the game from steam, then when I try to select a training mission "the very first training mission", the game go so slow and the objects like the plane that I suppose to take a lesson on it, is corrupted. The graphic of the plane is corrupted. I tried to lower the graphics from high to medium. I also turned off the HDR, the TSAA to off, the water to LOW, and the AA to 2x , and the game is still not running smooth. Any clue ?

I have MSI GT70 , INTEL I7, NVIDIA GTX 670M, 12 GRAM and HD 760 5200 RPM

Please note I also downloaded DSC WORLD and A-10 modules from ED website, and same happened. I don't think my specs to bad to not run this game smooth.

check your gfx card settings and make sure everything is set to application controlled.if it is set to super sampling etc it will crawl at 10 fps.

dont use steam version. stick with world.

Thanks I'll check it, but also note that I can see through objects too "specially planes" . I can see the pilot's legs :D

Did you overclock your cpu or gpu? If yes try undoing that

No I didn't overclock any thing in my system. And I checked the GTX settings and I set it to application controlled, but no luck. I even lowered the resolution to 1400* but the problem is still here, so slow and I can see through the planes.

Problems in other games? maybe a corrupt driver? Seems a graphics memory related issue then

Hi,

Did you install DCS World first and then the modules?

Graphics can't be corrupted, I mean the cockpit will be invisible if the game isn't activated...

other games work fine, and the cockpit is fine but the problem with the outsider of the plane, I can see inside of the wings and the game run slow

could also be a bad install/download or conflict between versions. remove all trace, and the saved game folder in your local dir. and do the re install dance with world and see if that is any different. you may need to install outside of the default Dir. iirc.

its been a while since i installed due to autopatcher.

also this thread may have some info, it sounds like a similar problem

Make very sure your computer does not end up using the IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor) on the i7.

I did all these, but no luck . I also made sure that the game runs on the nvidia card not the Intel one. :(

Please take a look @ these pics

You're in luck, as I had this problem. Go to the graphics config file in the DCS directory, find where to says:

Low

{

near_clip = 0.2;

This will be accompanied by a further 2 more 'clip' settings, which will say Med and High.

To fix this glitch, [which will also speed up DCS], change the 'near_clip = O.2' option to 'near_clip = 0.0', for High, Med, and Low.

Hope this helps. :D

Pingo.. :D now the plane looks awesome and thanks to you for the advise. I also noticed a good improvements in graphics in general, BUT the game still slow :(

I will quote what u said and I will give to other frustrated players in other forum to try it :)

Can anyone help me to set a good resolution for this sim . I mean I set it to the native 1900*1200. I also tried to lower it to 1600* but the game is still running slow.

Update Drivers for Intel HD Graphics.

Disable nVidia Optimus Technology or Force DCS to Use the nVidia Card..

The Game is trying to run on the Intel HD GPU Cores and not the nVidia Card.

I guarantee you your Intel GPU is still trying to render the Game. Run a App to Monitor GPU Usage, and i bet the 670m stays at next to nil.

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssss Man you're 100% right. I right clicked the DSC:World, chose the nvidia GPU , and guess what? the Intel GPU was set by default to run the game. Now, and Only NOW, the game run very smooth and the graphics are awesome. When I was playin the game, the red light indicate that the nvidia GPU was working, but hell yeah, now is good.

Thanks a lot guys for your help and Thanks Skatezilla in particular for this great tip. :)

Make very sure your computer does not end up using the IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor) on the i7.

I'm using a computer with an i7, and I'm experiencing all sorts of problems. How do you make sure your computer doesnt end up using the IGP?

Yes, just go to the desktop, right-click on the DSC: World icon, click on the graphics processor "or something like that", then click on the desired GPU.
