FYI applied noise1PerSquare = mod, my FPS went up from 55-60 to 70-75

FYI when I applied this noise1PerSquare = 5 (or 4, from 2)

 

an old mod to help TGP/FLIR target detection,

 

to my surprise my FPS went up from 55-60 to 70-75

 

Also, another effect, not unimportant either,

my environment went from noticeably somewhat 'blurry' to 'crisp as in 1.5.1'.

Applying the workaround:

 

1. Check your visibility range setting: Options -> System -> VISIB RANGE

 

2. Edit the appropriate Lua file in \Config\terrain using Notepad++:

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Config\terrain\{WHATEVER}.lua

(Should be one of Low.lua, Medium.lua, High.lua, Ultra.lua or Extreme.lua)

 

3. Change the noisemax value to 0.5:

 

Code:

--Old Noise land_noise = { noisemin = 0.0; noisemax = 0.5; noise1front = 1000.0; noise1back = 30000.0; noise1top = 2500.0; noise1bottom = 2000.0; noise1PerSquare = 4.0; noise2PerSquare = 150.0; }

4. Launch DCS and happy hunting.

 

Finally, a word towards ED: The TGP worked okay in 1.2. It was almost entirely broken in 1.5. This is not a wishlist item, this is a bug.

Interesting information will keep track of this one.

 

Hopefully others will attempt this to confirm.
