Hello danvac,

 

we will fix the erros on Mi-8...

Hello Chafer,

 

Add the following line to the export file of the airplane after the version number (i.e. quite to the beginning of the file).

ExportScript.NoLuaExportBeforeNextFrame = true

Take a look at the track and

 

 

like this?

-- A-10C

 

ExportScript.FoundDCSModule = true

ExportScript.Version.A10C = "1.2.0"

ExportScript.NoLuaExportBeforeNextFrame = true

 

[...]

 

what it is supposed to do?

[Chafer]

Thanks for your help, my answers in green :

 

Hello Chafer,

 

By "(but obviously, the avionic screen is frozen)" do you mean that Ikarus does not display any data?

Yes, Ikarus screen is displayed but there is no update

 

This would be normal because you have completely disabled the export of the data.

 

Interesting is the previous statement "...Everythings run well at 50 FPS until I run Ikarus ! When I run Ikarus, MSI afterburner or DCS are still telling me a solid 50FPS framerate but I clearly see a lot of lag and stutter on the 3d view (projectors). When I close Ikarus, everything run well again..."

 

And the present "... If I deactive DCS exportscript line within export.lua and run Ikarus, performance are OK !..."

 

The DCS ExportScript can slow down DCS World a bit.

 

The program Ikarus should have no influence on DCS World.

 

Do you have the shutter even if the ExportScript is activated, but Ikaurs was not started?

 

No. If Ikarus isn't started but the exportscript is activated, I've no shutter !

 

Do you have the shutter even if the ExportScript is active, Icarus has been started and you are running DCS World in Full HD resolution?

Yes. I am in full HD but not in fullscreen mode (option in DCS unchecked, otherwise my warping is going wild :()

 

Do you have the same graphics card driver version on the PCs with Nvidia 1080TI and 2080TI?

Hummmm, I think so, this is the last one from Nvidia (419.35). I will check the version of the first sim (the one that is running smoothly)

 

You can test the following again:

Fly with an airplane of your choice, save the track afterwards.

Take a look at the track and remember where something jerks.

Add the following line to the export file of the airplane after the version number (i.e. quite to the beginning of the file).

ExportScript.NoLuaExportBeforeNextFrame = true

Take a look at the track and compare it with your previous perception.

Done : no improvement

ExportScript.Version.A10C = "1.2.0"

ExportScript.NoLuaExportBeforeNextFrame = true

 

[...]

 

what it is supposed to do?

 

 

That's what I'm talking about.

 

If the value is set, then an export process is started per frame.

 

If the value is not set, then an export process is executed depending on the settings of the variables "ExportScript.Config.ExportInterval" and "ExportScript.Config.ExportLowTickInterval" (time setting).

[Chafer]

perhaps something useful :

 

ExportScript.Config.FirstNewDataSendCount = 1000

Stutter even if Ikarus is not started !

 

ExportScript.Config.FirstNewDataSendCount = 1

Stutter only if Ikarus is started

[Chafer]

The older PC is running a 1080Ti with nvidia drivers 399.07

 

The new one, a 2080Ti with nvidia drivers 419.35

[raymondabel]

That's what I'm talking about.

.

 

every frame?

that may be hard on the FPS

 

I will test it

[raymondabel]

I move back to v.440

420 an 444 just stop wotking

Hello Chafer,

 

 

maybe you want to test it.

I suppose if you update the Pc with the 1080ti to the 413 driver, there are also problems.

If so, the problem is with the driver and we can't change anything.

[Chafer]

Hello McMicha,

 

I've just installed the newest driver (419.35) on the oldest sim (the one with the 1080Ti), everything's still running well.

 

So that's not a driver relative issue. I'm turning mad :wacko:

[Guppy]

Chafer - is this with the Hornet? If so, see if your SA page is turned on. If it is, that is likely the cause of the issue. I'm finding 40-50% reduction of FPS when I have the SA page up (Regardless of it IKARUS is running or not).

[McMicha]

@Chafer: Do you have disabled the Windows Game Mode on the new PC?

[Chafer]

@Guppy, I use Ikarus with the F15 and the M2000. But I will try with other module to check performance

 

@McMicha, Yep. Game mode is disabled. It's worst with it enabled !

[Chafer]

after some more tests,

 

If I lower graphics settings and set these paramaters in graphic.lua :

ExportScript.Config.ExportInterval = 0.08

ExportScript.Config.ExportLowTickInterval = 0.8

It's a lot better but not perfect.

 

But not with the M2000... I had to set an even higher exportinterval to have a constant framerate.

Hello!

 

I must get this :

 

https://github.com/s-d-a/Ikarus

 

or this:

 

https://github.com/H-J-P/Ikarus ?

 

Thanks a lot!

[McMicha]

Hello,

 

https://github.com/s-d-a/Ikarus <- latest stable version

 

https://github.com/H-J-P/Ikarus <-latest developer version

[H-J-P]

@Roger01: Please use the latest stable version.

[Roger01]

Thanks a lot.

 

Last question, I think the answer is YES but it for to be sure.

With Simpit, can I do same think like helios with the f18c profil?

Because Helios do a huge FPS drop... :(

 

Thanks again!

short answer

yes and Ikarus is better as FPS is concern

[Roger01]

Perfect, I don't find why I get a FPS drop (I think there's a problem with the export code)

So I will try with Simpit.

 

Can't read now the 137 pages of the thread, anyone have a F18 profil like the Capt Zeen's one, or a least a beginning of profile ? Thanks!

be sure to use Export.lua updated from Cat Zeen

http://www.captzeen.com/helios/downloads.asp

[Roger01]

It's already done, I tested with many other versions but nothing to do ...

yes, Helios is know to suck dry FPS...

Try Ikarus, It take some time to install and to adapt but it worth it. and support is #1

It's better with Ikarus, I just got a drop of 5-10 fps (70-75 instead of 80) but there's a low refresh rate on the "LCD screen" like IUEF and UFC, between 1 and 2 sec.

 

However I have this :

 

ExportScript.Config.ExportInterval = 0.05 -- export evry 0.05 secounds

ExportScript.Config.ExportLowTickInterval = 0.5 -- export evry 0.5 secounds

You make me think to what would be the impact on the game play if I double those setting ...
