Scooternutz Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 I have seen a lot of folks that are having low FPS with 2.1. I am not seeing that. I am posting some screenshots and my specs. I am running a single Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition. I am getting no less than 45 FPS at Nellis and Las Vegas. I also delete all the contents of this folder, (shaders) every other day or so: C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS.openalpha\metashaders. It may be a little hard to see the FPS counter because these screen shots are in VR. I have shadows off.

Colmillo Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Thnks for the information. I am trying all kind of variables to get the best performance. I will try yours [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900KF CPU @ 3.70GHz 3.70 GHz ROG STRIX Z490-E GAMING RAM 128 M.2*2 2T total SSD*3 2.5T total GeForce RTX 3090 Orion2 HOTAS F-16EX Saitek Pro Rudder
Colmillo Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 So far so good! Thank you very much! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900KF CPU @ 3.70GHz 3.70 GHz ROG STRIX Z490-E GAMING RAM 128 M.2*2 2T total SSD*3 2.5T total GeForce RTX 3090 Orion2 HOTAS F-16EX Saitek Pro Rudder
Sandman1330 Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 I am also having quite good luck with Nevada performance. Unfortunately, Normandy is another story...

Gruman Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 Playing without shadows is a no go for me. Takes away so much if there is not a bit of dynamic lightning going on in the cockpit. :) Rather suffer the lower FPS ^^ Intel I9 10900k @5.1GHz | MSI MEG Z490 Unify | Corsair Vengeance 64GB - 3600MHz | EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 VPC T-50 Base /w Viper & Hornet Grip | VPC Rotor TCS Pro w/ Hawk-60 Grip | TM TPR LG C2 42" | Reverb G2 | TIR 5 | PointCtrl | OpenKneeboard
rogonaut Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 try this in normandy, good frames over the desert...
Pikey Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 NTTR, especially the outlying sections of low object intensity is the only place i'll fly live with VR right now. It's fairing better than Normandy by a long way. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *

Spetz Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Those 1080 Ti's are great for chewing through the FPS. I have shadows on medium and PD of 1.6. I think I've only seen FPS drop below 45 once downtown Vegas because I whipped my head around to fast and it took the GPU a 1/2 second to catch up. Prop planes don't seem to have any negative effect for me either compared to some. Edited August 18, 2017 by Spetz
ram0506 Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 Well, having a very similar system to yours I can confirm those fps over the desert with shadows off. The performance troubles occur when I want to fly with shadows on (flat at least is a must for me) and start turning in low flight over Vegas or villages of the Normandy map. The latter is bringing my system down to 20-25 fps. Stuttering all over the place. Also playing without ASW is a no go for me. Everything below 90 fps is too stutterish for my taste.

Scooternutz Posted August 18, 2017 Author Posted August 18, 2017 I am glad this post is helping some. I was sitting there flying and I was thinking of the folks that are having such a hard time with DCS 2.1 and VR. It is such a huge change to flying I wanted to share my results. I, like many others, cannot go back to the 2D world. I don't know if deleting the metashaders is a placebo but it seems to work for me as well. The Viggen is the most taxing AC and the A-10 if I have the Maverick and TGP screens up simultaneously. Cheers all and after enjoying some healthy outdoor things, for Gods sake, FLY FLY FLY!!!!

Spetz Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 Good idea on the same mission. Maybe I'll get a chance to make a .trk after work we can all use. Using the SU-25 or something, something everyone has.
1Wolf Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Thank you. These settings that were shared, and the discussion and comparison of the settings others are using is helping me to dial-in the right settings for VR as well. Not just in 2.1 but in 1.5 as well :) One thought, I'm not sure where on these forums it would be appropriate to post this....but maybe we could request that the developers add a built in VR benchmark as a feature? I know a lot of games have a benchmark built in. I don't know if there is such a thing as a "VR Benchmark", but if so, it would be nice if they added that as a feature and it would be something that would be useful for a long time so that folks could discuss and compare FPS, hardware, and settings. Just a thought :)
