motjoo Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hi, Both DCS World and DCS 2.0 run perfectly fine on my pc. NTTR and Normandy as well. Only when I start the Epsom campaign the game will either crash or have such a slow framerate that it becomes unplayable. Any help is appreciated.DxDiag.txtLogs.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted August 11, 2017 ED Team Share Posted August 11, 2017 All your drivers up to date? Do you have an SSD? Epsom has a large amount of units, you may need to adjust your graphic settings.

motjoo Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Installed game on SSD. Big improvement. Playing Epsom campaign the game needs to be installed on SSD. Thanks SiThSpAwN for pointing me in the right direction. Edited August 11, 2017 by motjoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted August 11, 2017 ED Team Share Posted August 11, 2017 Some WWII units might still need some optimizing so it still might get better, there is a lot of units in that campaign, but glad to hear you made some progress!

Thanks SiThSpAwN for pointing me in the right direction. How much ram does your system have motjoo? If you have the SSD as a second drive, perhaps pointing the windows page file to use the SSD will help here also. I just use the System managed page size when setting the new drive. .

motjoo Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 I have 16 gb ram. The SSD is set as the first drive. Epsom is running ok now. No more game crashes and framerate is good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antorian Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Glad to hear your game is working well for you. I'm having poor frame-rate issues currently with the mission. I have 16GB of RAM and a GTX 980 but no SSD. I played with the mission editor and with less units on the 1944 map, things seem to clear up frame rate wise flying the Spitfire. Am I at a point where I need as SSD to play this now? I've included a screenshot of my settings. Any advise would be appreciated.

Antorian Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I just reduced reload radius to about 40000 and visibility to medium and I've had great bump in frame rate.

Chelco Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Installed game on SSD. Big improvement. Playing Epsom campaign the game needs to be installed on SSD. Thanks SiThSpAwN for pointing me in the right direction. I moved my DCS World into a cheap SSD (US $80.00). I did set up my page file on the SSD. It works beautifully. Mission 1 of the campaign is now perfectly flyable in my old rig (i7 3.4 GHz, 16 GB DDR3 RAM, GeForce GTX 970, 240 GB SSD). I get around 55 fps max, 34 fps min. That is without the "radio kill" option. If I use the "radio kill" option, I get around ~97 fps max, 50 fps min. Eventually, I will have to upgrade. But I'm very impressed about how the SSD changed the game play for me. Cheers, Real and Simulated Wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
