DCS 2.0 Nevada stutter help

[Wolf Rider]

Horizontal 24khz to 80khz

 

Vertical 56hz to 75hz

 

From the spec

Cheers mate, but was asking does your actual monitor report its Vertical Hz at... from the resolution charts I've seen (in regard to your listed monitor and in hoping to help you a bit), it would be more like 59.9xxHz at 1920x1080.

this ain't gonna sync at the 60hz the Op Sys/ VGA says.

what happens is; a bit of jittery (which some might call stutter... ). It also introduces judder (which some might also call stutter), when movement on screen, usually terrain, I right/ left (not up/ down) and a slight pause or two when it all tries catch up to each other and perhaps a bit of tearing on occassion

 

 

 

Now... you've got a motherboard close to its end of life, a slow platter drive, and a monitor ill suited for gaming monitor, it seems.

 

have you thought of doing yourself a favour and perhaps, upgrading the hardware?

[Abburo]

Wolfrider, I have a 4k with GSync monitor and 770 in SLI ... and have stutter on low alltitude. Unless lowering resolution cannot obtain a consitent FPS flow.

 

I would not bet in this case that the monitor is the problem. EDGE itself still need optimization or we need to go to higher specs GPUs.

[Wolf Rider]

could you define what your 'stutter' is please?

And I think the point being missed is, if the monitor is running at 59Hz, it isn't going to sync with something sending 60Hz signals (is there another way to put this) and the symptoms described occur, when this condition present...

The natural road forward for those who have such a monitor, would be if possible, to find an monitor onboard resolution (set the sim and Windows to the same) which is true 60HZ (as reported by the Monitor's OSD Info itself - and test

 

Different people all describe different things as "Stutter". Some say "judder" is Stutter". Some say CPU Throttling is (stutter). making sense?

I'm not getting much stutter now only at real low level

 

Thought quite a few others were suffering more on here than me?

I'm sorry but with that little information I'm unable to understand exactly what your problem is.

Please guys this is just not a monitor issue!!

 

Think I will maybe give this thread a miss until the devs get involved a bit

I know it's not a monitor issue. But as I said, you're not answering the questions, so there's not much we can do for you anyway.

[gazmonalpha]

What information are you missing and what do u require please?

Interesting piece of information: my SSD died (which seems customary for SSD after a couple of months, thanks Corsair), so I'm storing DCS on my HD until a replacement. And sure enough, those freezes have come back. It was on Caucasus, not even the NTTR map which would amplify the problem.

 

This seems to confirm one possible cause of "stuttering", due to the (blocking) loading of data (texture, scenery mesh details, ...).

 

Not sure this thread is followed by the devs anyway, though it would be nice to see some response to this problem.

[...]and the graphics card is not configured with triple-buffering, but you can enable it in your nVidia's settings to overcome this.[...]

 

The nVidia Triple Buffering settings is ONLY for OpenGL; this need to stop being reported as a solution.

You can probably force it on in DCS world running Exclusive Fullscreen using the old D3DOverrider

I'm trying to get rid of this strange stutter, I think its ground buildings etc loading because if I exit and re-start a lot of it is gone

 

even low settings same case

 

anyway of getting rid ??

 

i7 @ 4.8ghz , gtx1080

=====yes this the problem !

 

its on both maps coming approaching ground objects

You're correct, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Seems like a CPU bottleneck and i'd say view distance is the main issue.

 

Flying level on the edge of vegas, looking towards the center from a10c cockpit.

 

All settings off or on the lowest possible:

 

Extreme view distance: 44fps

Ulta: 48

High: 51

Medium: 55

Low: 60

 

FPS stays same even if i pause it.

 

GPU Usage 35-45% on all of those.

 

So low visibility setting is the only smooth playable one.

 

Maxing out all the graphics settings (AA 16Q, everything to extreme or highest possible except depth and lens effects) fps still 60 and GPU usage goes up 20% to around 46-65%

 

 

So regardless of other settings, i have to keep view distance on low. Other settings dont matter, can max them out. Guess we need some watercooling and +5ghz cpu if that would fix it.

 

5760x1080 resolution, 4690k@4.5, GTX 1080, 16gb RAM, normal 1TB HD. No stutters, tearing or slowdowns. If only we could use higher view distance it would be perfect :joystick:

 

Edit: Yeah, RTSS is locking FPS to max 60 to keep things smooth so any results over 60 don't show up here.

Funny I don't have these issues everything maxed. never have. So no we don't need water poles 5+ Ghz. Never did like NVidia.

[lazduc]

So, Megohm what video card do you use to get non stutters with everything maxed out? Are you getting close to 100fps to support VR?

[Miker0n3]

I also had stuttering in 2.0, yet 1.5 was smooth as silk. I turned off swap file, as I have 2 ssd's running in RAID 0. then I updated my BIOS, and noticed a huge increase in drive speed. At this point almost all my 2.0 stuttering was eliminated. Only get the occasional stutter. I also removed my antivirus, and did reduce visible range a bit, but everything else is maxed out. Get 40 to 90 FPS at 1080p.

 

 

My system is i7-4790k@4.4 / EVGA 980ti / 2x Samsung Pro 256 Raid0 / 16Gb G.Skill @2133 / etc...

5760x1080 resolution

Are you getting close to 100fps to support VR?

 

Don't the current iterations of VR run at essentially 2400 x 1080 (2*1200x1080)?

5760x1080 is more than twice that...

If you were to cut your resolution back to something like the one you want to run at, what do your frame-rates come out at with the same setting you tested at ?

[Grodin]

Whats your resolution? This doesn't seem to be GPU issue, and on another note, ATI has nothing that comes even close to 1080, you are aware it's way more powerful than titan, and ATI has nothing that compares even to that...? http://www.game-debate.com/blog/images/_id1463131026_343178_1.png

You quoted someone else, im not looking to run VR, im running triplescreen.

 

Edit: But for comparison, 1920x1080 with everything maxed out, even view distance, gives 90-100fps when not limited. Also, if using "1 screen" option instead of "3 screens" with 5760x1080, performance is good, but image is stretched - 3 screens option renders correctly but hurts fps.

See spoiler for system but it's a R295x2 8GB. I run 1920 x1080 on a 55" Plasma.

I don't use VR if that's what this is about. Did not realize this was about VR. So ignore me. My mistake.

[deanbrh]

solved for me...

 

I encountered a random 1 second stutter intermittently even though the hardware could handle the settings

 

 

Well I spent a good day today trying ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING from every NVidia setting permutation (980TI) to disabling pagefiles, messing with the SSD settings etc. You name it, I tried it and read every forum post on lags stutters and fps drops

 

What worked for me was turning CPU hyperthreading off in the BIOS. (i4790k)

 

I'm now running everything maxed and locked at 60fps with vsync on. Reliably. I've confirmed it was this by switching it back on and off once or twice.:thumbup:

 

Hope this helps someone else...

[Redglyph]

That's pretty weird, it should have the opposite effect, make sure you have the latest version of BIOS.

[Burning Bridges]

I spent the evening tuning the remaining microstutters flying low over Las Vegas. It turned out in my case the only problem was civilian traffic.

 

I had it on high and while the game ran great, flight over Las Vegas brought some micro stutters to the fore.

 

When I set civ. traffic to medium the other settings can remain high - visibility high, 8x AA, 16x AF, fps is almost stuck at 60 (vsync) only over the most critical areas (downtown Las Vegas) it sometimes drops to 55.

 

Since the big issue seems to be loading of terrain and not graphics quality, one remaining thing is that I still wonder wether I would gain additionally from an M2 SSD. I currently run from a SATA SSD, which is fine but it's not the fastest one. So as I am now pressed to buy a new SSD anyways (its getting too cramped), I am torn between another 512GB SATA or 256 M2 (at least while the prices don't move).

[Pokredde (POK)]

Same stuttering here on a I7 7700@3.7GHz, GTX 1070 and 16gb ram.

Reducing or removing civilian traffic helps a little but when online the stutters make it 100% unplayable. Both on 1.5 and 2.1.

 

My old pc with i5 2500k, GTX770 and 10gb ram never had stuttering issues?

 

I have just ordered Oculus CV1 and are very concerned with the stuttering issues.
