...agree, disappointed is the word... and beynd that. Had so high hopes for this, and so let down when She arrives. The exterior is superb! Hats of to that RAZBAM, but the rest... regarding prefromance... (not using those words here...) RAZBAM, fix this ASAP. Sure they are looking into this by now!

We always knew this was to be suspected, nothing's perfect at first.

I'm seeing zero performance drop in VR using a 1060GTX, so this isn't an "across the board" issue.

[buspelle]

...suspected, Yes. True maybe, but not as worse as this...

[sze5003]

Early Access..expect performance issues. Not all of us had the same systems that was used to test. Wondering how it will do on my 1080Ti.

But if you dont want to beta test, they dont force you i think,

 

I love the av 8b and happy it is released, ok there are preformance problems... we know it a early release.. so no problems and i am happy to try i out :)

Then why buy pre-release modules? The choice is yours, and no one is forcing you to Beta test anything.

Well we were just recently informed that we have to download the beta 1.5 client so I'm kinda forced into it, aren't I? I wouldn't mind if it actually worked but it's unplayable atm.

I expect it to work, I don't mind half the features missing. And it seems I do need to download the beta client so there's your beta testing. Also, I don't need a lecture, thanks.

Is this in VR?

 

No. We have not experienced that. It is hard to help without being able to replicate the problem.

 

Not VR.

Instant mission cold and dark.

Settings: what I have used until now with around 50-60fps on all other aircraft

 

Cockpit: 23fps

 

External: 60fps

 

I think I may have gotten it usable again, by reducing the settings a bit (View distance, trees and grass).

I will have to try it out a bit before I am sure though.

Still stuttering when looking around with mouse/keyboard, haven't tried with trackir yet.

 

But still, other aircraft stay at around 60fps both external and internal, with previous extreme settings and not stuttering.

So hopefully this will be improved in the future.

I will advise to reduce the viewing distance to 50% and test for the mean time.

We will check the problem.

I run in VR and on the right I have draw distance all the way up, clutter down, and trees all the way down. I'll have to see how it runs when I get home. Also I have shadows to low or off.

[Ramsay]

Anyone know where I can get A1-AV8B-NFM-400 ? Thanks.

Do you mean the AV-8B performance charts:

If you are a lucky owner and don't have it already, you might also want to check out the AV-8B SAC for some standard mission profiles:

Look, I’m not of those hater trolls who likes to whine and complain about the slightest things. I’ve participated in numerous prerelease/early access software products and I like to contribute and help with my comments. But DCS as a whole has a track record of flimsy, to put is mildly, early releases. I only wanted to express my frustration and I immediately get jumped by you and other defenders with the classic line “well if you didn’t want this then don’t participate in it”.

 

I apologize for expressing my opinion and promise to keep my frustrations to myself from now on...

These are my setting for my GeForce GTX970 with 4GB VRAM.

 

I have a rift but it is disconnected because it is not ideal for development purposes.

View distance down to high, trees: 12000-14000 and grass: 1000

It is now usable as far as I can see so far.

 

Thanks for looking into this :)

[sze5003]

If it ran fine for you it should run fine for me as well. Although dcs is processor heavy, I have a 6700k and 1080ti so I'm expecting similar performance.

[Zeus67]

View distance is the main FPS hitter. Experiment until you get a setting that works for you.

Then stop buying beta and early access software

 

Wow. Sniped by so many people. I should finish reading the thread before I reply!

Knowing it was advertised as early access and you make this comment?

[Vitormouraa]

Lol, it's up to you to buy it or not.
