Performance breakdown after some time

[Desertstorm]

Hi guys,

 

when I'm starting a new mission I have about 30-35 FPS. When I'm doing airfights my FPS drops down to 20-25 and all works fine.

 

I created a mission with my friend. Normaly we build mission with always 2 or 3 airplanes at the same time. If we kill one, the next get activated and starts from the ramp.

 

After some time (10-15minutes) my FPS goes down to 10 and later to zero. I had 1frame every minute at the end.

 

I have tried all with my graphic settings, but when I set all options to low the problem still exists. I only get about 5 FPS more.

 

My hardware:

AND Phenom II X4 3.2GH

NVIDIA 660 GTX

8GB DDR 1600

 

I also tried a lot of performance tipps from this forum, but nothing worked.

I hope you guys can give me some tipps or ideas to solve it.

The game is not playable at the moment.

How complicated is your mission? Hundreds of objects and/or triggers?

 

I'm having the same problem, and it seems to be proportional to how many objects and triggers are in my mission. Fewer of such items and staying away from airports seems to help keep it playable. Some good discussion and anecdotes here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=122458

 

After 400 seconds, I am always less than half of my original FPS, and in my biggest missions, it crawls to single-digit FPS after 300-500 seconds. I wasn't having this problem last year, even though I've improved my system since then.
