Anyone with long loading time (not with ingame stutters), please attach your "\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\options.lua" file.

Suffering from longer loading times and occasional in game stuttering.... not unplayable but irritating.

I also have bad frame stuttering (and I thought my speech was bad) then it freezes and ctd. Will post my logs when I get a chance.

About long mission loading time.

 

1. Delete \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\ folder (make a backup firstly).

2. In game sub-folder \bin launch dcs_updater.exe with "cleanup" command (dcs_updater cleanup). WARNING: it will delete all non-versioned files in your OB install, such as custom mods etc.

3. Make a DCS repair (dcs_updater repair) in the same \bin folder.

Launch DCS and check if loading time get better.

Another question for people who have long mission loading time: do you have DCS installed on HDD or SSD ?

Longer loading times than before and less stable framerates with the open beta on my system. With less stable I mean, when in VR I used to had a solid 45fps always, now it dips into the 20/30's )

Loading the viggen takes about 55 second for the first load after that it's about 40 seconds. (Viggen cold start instant action mission)

 

DCS is on a SSD and the DCS saved games folder on a different SSD.

HDD, long mission loading time. this gives me the connection time out and server ping time out.

 

Wait, we told about single mission loading time? Because multiplayer connecting it's absolutely another story.

@ TWMoney - just for a future reference, the updater is programmed to copy files from any other DCS installs existing on Your computer (if they have newer files in them, obviously), to considerably cut down the time and bandwidth required for updating, whenever possible. Only then it downloads remaining data from ED servers. A great feature for those of us who have more than one DCS copy on their computers, but don't have access to cheap, unlimited, broadband internet.

 

So there was no need to move 1.5.5 and 2.0 to other location, 'cause You downloaded the same files anyway.

Well, long loading time in mission with Viggen it's also separate problem, related to Viggen module. We need to separate the wheat from the chaff. Let's stake out our positions.

Just now we have discussed issue with long mission loading time in 1.5.6 in comparison with 1.5.5. Period. The same mission with the same settings. There no Viggen module in 1.5.5, so let's forget him now.

For example: QS mission Cold Start Su-25T in 1.5.5, loading time is XX sec., in 1.5.6 YY sec.

Instant action (version 1.5.6 open beta):

Viggen cold start - 1'st 55 seconds 2'nd time 40 seconds.

M2000C cold start - 1'st 40 seconds 2'nd time 27 seconds.

No mods installed.

 

I'm now reverting back to the stable version and see if there is a difference.

 

The same test on the stable version 1.5.5 release.

M2000C cold start - 1'st 40 seconds, after that 10 seconds.

 

Updated back to version 1.5.6 open beta, same tests.

M2000C cold start - 1'st 60 seconds, after that 30 seconds.

 

DCS is on a SSD and the DCS saved games folder on a different SSD.

update on mine, i just loaded all of my aircrafts cold start missions they load exactly the same if not better compared to 1.5 stable. Minus the VIggen now that has over double maybe triple the time loading.

My load times on all aircraft in open beta minus the viggen are around 20-30 seconds. But like noted above after a couple of loads on the viggen it improves slightly for that module but is still a huge difference.

 

Overall all my other modules are not affected by this open beta, just the viggen.

Well, it's not an issue then. Because Viggen has very "heavy" cockpit model and of course it has longer loading time. But it definitely not a OB issue.

I personally have not noticed a difference in load times between 1.5.5 and 1.5.6.

I do not have the Viggen.

I dont have Viggen and for me the game is back as it was before I upgraded from 8 gb ram to 16 gb. :( Lags alot...

Can it be a memory leak after the new update?
