1.2.10.30996.495 patch?

[Raven Morpheus]

From reading stuff here I was under the impression the next update for DCS World would be the long awaited v2.0, but today I've gone to run DCS World and it's applied a v1.2.10.30996.495 patch.

 

I'm assuming this is FW 190 release related as it's only a small ~217mb patch.

 

So, no chance of this making any difference to me (especially in terms of FPS), as I don't have the FW 190 Dora.

 

But I'm curious, how many more of these "micro patches" for newly released addons are we going to see before v2.0 is finally released? I'm eager to get my hands on v2.0 because I'm hoping (probably falsely) that my FPS will significantly improve...

 

Oh and also, is there a changelog for this patch?

1.2.9, and 1.2.10 were small updates to facilitate the releases of new modules.

 

There are a few 3rd Party Modules that could be released before 2.0.0 (Hawk/MIG-21).

 

2.0.0 Doesn't have a scheduled release date.

Ah OK thanks.

Must admit the update to 1.2.9 and 1.2.10 has had a negative impact on frame rate on my very modest pc. I've reverted back to 1.2.8 until 2.0 is released, at which point I'll do a proper upgrade of my pc (new cpu and high-end gfx card).

post your current rig's specs. curious to see what's up.

 

thx.

Or BF-109K October!!!Don't forget that they state late 2014 for DCSW 2.....

As a basic outline, here are our current development intentions:

WWII Development has nothing to do with DCSW2.0.0/EDGE Development.

JUST A QUOTE ON THIS

Im talking about aircraft releases before DCSW2

Raven Morpheus,

 

have you tried switching off shadows, HDR, mirrors, and other resource consuming graphical elements of the simulator? The majority here is running DCS World on medium to low settings.

 

What is your computer configuration?

You could really help Eagle Dynamics to improve performance of the simulator by submitting your PC specs here:

Yeah I've tried all that. Thing is I see guys on youtube, who probably admittedly have rigs with 2gb GPU's and an i7, running at good fps with great looking graphics.

 

Turning everything down does nothing significant, maybe a couple of fps, in fact on the FARP in Stray Eagle waiting to startup I get ~25fps no matter what my in-game settings are. As a general rule in an empty map or a mission like Stray Eagle when flying out in the open I get about 30-40fps on average, probably not much more as a max than 45fps and the game is playable.

 

When it comes to approaching FARPs, especially where there are UH-1H's that drops to something like 10fps at times (I had a user made mission (I forget by whom) with a formation flight of 8 of them and I was getting ~10fps!!), and often a max of about 19fps - take the campaign mission 1 as an example when you reach about 10nm out from FARP Madrid, my fps drops from a a flyable 30 or so fps to 10 or 12 fps.

 

This seems to have been narrowed down to the UH-1H and other newer object models being too high poly I believe by other people who have looked into the issue.

 

But anyhow here's my specs -

 

AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE @3.2ghz

Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 1GB

8GB 1333mhz RAM

Gigabyte GA-880GM-USB3 motherboard

Windows 7 64bit

ATI CCC 10.2 (I can't run anything newer due to using 2 monitors, I get flicker and instability causing crashes when resuming from sleep).

2 monitors - primary @ 1920x1080 landscape, secondary @ 1440x900 portrait (so actually 900x1440). Even when running 1 monitor I don't see any improvement in fps.

 

 

To be honest I don't expect an improvement with EDGE, I am pretty certain I have to upgrade at least my CPU to an i5 and probably my GPU to a 2GB newer equivalent to the 5870.

 

But obviously I need to get my hands on EDGE to know if that's the case...

Oooh now that sounds interesting. I had no idea a BF109 and a Spit were in the pipeline.

 

Would be great if DCS WWII modules could become something a bit like IL2 1946, and I'd hope for the addition of a flyable Vought F4U and a PTO map. IL2 1946 is my go to for fixed wing aircraft, and I love the PTO campaigns with the F4U, I seem to have played them the most.

I don't think u need to upgrade the CPU. I am running an i7 920 at stock and have all graphics maxed out. with great FPs. The GPU upgrade should get u were u want to be.

[skouras]

you have an i7 920 and running it at stock?

man you have to overclock, this cpu is still a beast!

i have replace mine for an i7 4770k because my mobo dies..
