MP Issue - can't get near other players

[Elliottc26]

I can log in to a MP server fine. In SP, I have adjusted settings to give me 30FPS constant at ground level - even in external views??

 

However, in MP, if I get near another player my frame rates drop and I get loads of stuttering. I have a fibre connection (down 44Mbps up 8Mbps) and 1.5.8 OB worked great with multiple players all near me on an airfield (25!).

 

Is it my settings or the servers that dictates visuals?

 

PC:

 

i7 920 @ 3.8Ghz

4GB RX560

16Gb 1600 DDR3

 

I think Deferred Shading and MSAA are killing DCS!

If you're only getting 30fps in SP you'll be having pain in MP on big servers. I suggest you lower your graphics much more and try again.

 

MSAA + DS is pretty slow right now, try switching off MSAA in-game and enable 2x in your AMD panel and see how that works for you.

 

 

Also, lower shadows, view distance, texture quality, terrain quality. You only have 4GB of vram to work with so it is touch and go already.

With msaa off it looks jagged. This is disheartening as the recommended 8gb cards are £450+ and i am disabled so money is tight. Ah well looks like 2.5 is going to look pants for me then.

 

I hope ed works on getting crossfire working without stutters so i can use both my cards. Would help.
