Grafit164DK Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) I would like to note that after todays update of DCS 2 I have noticed big FPS drop (from 60 to about 5) when radar of my plane is turned on. It is especially visible when flying Mirage 2000 and F-5. In versions 1.5.4 and 2.0.2 this problem is not present.

NeilWillis Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I'd suggest there may be an issue with your installation. Try running a repair (always a good idea before and after an update), and if that doesn't do the trick, good frame rate gains may be had by renaming your options.lua from the config folder in the saved games directory of DCS World. That will of course return your settings to their defaults, and once you have a stable, realistic frame rate, you can then start upping the graphics demands on your set up again. Also, make sure you run without mods for a while after any update, because conflicts often manifest themselves there. I always load them gradually, checking for issues as I go. These issues often appear after an update, as you'll see if you check out previous posts on the same subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that I have deleted options.lua as you adviced and set options to low- unfortunately without any result too. When I am flying with radar turned off game is very smooth even when I am flying over big cities, but after turning radar on I have 4 to 8 FPS and game is unplayable. If I turn radar off again all is correct - 60 FPS. Have anyone similar problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dun_Aenghus Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I took the Mirage for a spin and I am encountering the exact same issue. Everything was fine until I turned on the radar and things stuttered to the point of being unplayable. Definitely a problem on my end as well.

Knock-Knock Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I had something similar happen in one of the 1.54 OB versions I think it was, but there it was in F-86 I noticed it with. The pipper would basically jump around on the tree's, at least it looked that way. When I turned the range down, or just pointed my nose a bit towards the sky, it was all good again. And it like you describe, really hit the fps hard. I then installed release version, and the problem wasnt there. Been on release since, and havent encountered it there. Sorry for not being any help, but just wanted to pitch in, that I have seen the problem in 1.54 OB (which has since been uninstalled). - Jack of many DCS modules, master of none. - Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grafit164DK Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 In my case, the problem occures in every mission - default instant action and missions created in ME (before and after update). FPS drop is the most visible when flying Mirage. With F-5E is a bit better (but unplayable too - about 12 FPS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
