Before in DCS the graphic rendering was handled by the CPU. Now it's handled by the GPU and unlike the CPU the GPU has 1 or so ghz where as a CPU has 3+ ghz. I think a multi GPU and CPU handling of bothe game performance and rendering will help a lot. But it also could be memory leaks, or just a poor handling of graphics api. But it's a beta so for now we just need to take the good for the bad and trust they will be resolved. Just gather as much proof and post. Thanks, Lt.

Sporg Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Try to hit Alt-Enter in game. This forces DCS into fullscreen mode, instead of borderless window which it is running in now. When I do that, the game becomes much smoother, and the sort of stutters disappear, even at lower FPS.

Swam-e Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I am getting stable 60 fps with high settings and Depth of Field :off But when i use the mouse to look around in cabin or external it keeps the FPS stable but is not smooth. Looks like an optimization issue. Does it make sense? Already tried The fix above. Still the same.

Punisher74 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 A temp fix is to lower as much to medium, turn off shadows, DOF keep the terrain textures to high, tree's to 1500, you can also lower the preload distance, lock your frames to a max setting lock ie. 60FPS max, no lens flares. in other words try to keep the plane and weapons systems looking round like in the real world. I was able to get 60FPS with MSAA at 8x and AA at 8X. that with crossfire enabled in the F-15C and close to 30FPS in the A-10C. I was getting better FPS in DCS 1.2.16 which makes no sense since it was out dated DirectX. Anyway I've been running changes to settings all day and that's the best I found. I hope that they fix these issues with FPS, Anti-Aliasing, FLIR FPS Drop, Memory Leaks, etc. soon. Thanks, Lt.

Punisher74 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Ya turn on vsync I never understand why people run 120 some frames when they have a 60 hz display. Tearing without vsync is much more distracting than the barely perceived input lag from sync. Not vsync, there is a setting in nvidia or catalyst where you can lock the FPS. Vsync eats FPS Thanks, Lt.

Dappman Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 LALT+RETURN !!! What's that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisse Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 What's that? The current version of 1.5 defaults to borderless window mode. Lalt + enter is a keybind that will put the sim into exclusive fullscreen mode, which might fix the issues you are having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitMaster Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 All I can add to this, try Gsync or FreeSync and Stutter is a yesterday problem. My fps are ( depending on airframe as well ) somewhere from 60-120 and mostly 80-100, never lower, never higher than 121, my monitor has 144Hz Gsynced and all fps areas are smooth as baby skin. GPU uses about 60-63%, less than 50% Powertarget and stays below 50°C, nothing dramatic for the GPU, plenty power left.... ( MSI Afterburner SW ). Also, make NV seetings so that you accelerate ONE display only ( not multi-monitor accel. ), that is said to speed it up a bit. my 2 cents about stuttering Bit Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Asus 1080ti EK-waterblock - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus PG278Q 27" QHD Gsync 144Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisse Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Yup, same here using Freesync on a 144hz monitor. It's smooth as baby skin since 1.5 update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madman777 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I was getting pretty bad micro shutters, and overall bad FPS. I was getting 20FPS to 60FPS, it was all over the place. It was also unplayable. Then I turned off full screen, and now it runs smooth, very smooth. For a GTX 560ti, I have to admit I wasn't expecting this kind of performance. i7-12700k, 32GB Ram, RTX 3060 12GB, TrackIR 5, Lots of SSD Space, etc etc DCS World - All the cool modules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher74 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) DCS Moderators I've noticed bug that are reported in this forum threads have a [REPORTED] mark in front of them. Why have FPS, and Crossfire/SLI ones haven't been. People are having serious issues with FPS drops with card 100% within the DCS requirements, yet aren't reported or are with no notification. Please keep use informed so we can move forward with other testing. Thank you!!!!! Edited October 7, 2015 by raptorsim Thanks, Lt.

ody81 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 How can set a cap on fps, say to 60fps? Is there an option somewhere or I must edit a .ini file? Graphics.lua I believe is where you're headed, although someone on another thread did a little test and found the capping caused more stutters and that vsync was the way to go. I might try adaptive vsync myself just to see what it's like even though the sim is mostly smooth (except FLIR and in the F-15). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurts with AA too, I've only got a 760gtx. Oh well. Turned adaptive on for DCS as well so I'm expecting great things now lol. This has been bugging me....

indiadamjones Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Just wanted to mention. A lot of what people are experiencing is related to Windows 7 Aero features, specifically desktop composition mode. That's what you are basically turning off when you LAlt + Enter. With desktop composition mode OFF (Advanced Performance Settings in Computer Properties) you should notice smoother play, however screen tearing will ensue. With it ON, you will have some input lag, especially if you turn your trackIR while flying by complex scenes. In a flight sim, I would almost suffer the tearing for continuity of FPS. With Desktop Composition mode enabled, Windows itself forces vsync, so tough to say if GPU managed vsync is taking affect. Good luck!

Not sure where your info comes from, but this is all 100% not true. Some people do have issues with aero, but aside from that fact everything written here is absolutely false.
