FlankerMan Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Hello, everyone! I think this is the right place to put this, but I'm not completely sure. Anyways, I've noticed that running 2.5OB all by itself doesn't perform nearly as well as running 1.5 Stable and 2.2OA AT THE SAME TIME did. Neither of them crashed much at all, just very, very occasionally, but 2.5 crashes all the time. Now, I know this is because my video card is below the minimum requirements, but then, why does it run at all, and why did 1.5 and 2.2 work fine? I don't have the data to revert to those 2 this month, and I might not do it at all, but I'm considering it. Is there anything I can do? Should I just stick it out, crashes and all? Another thing I've noticed is that occasionally it'll freeze for a few seconds, before continuing, and it's also a bit more jittery than usual. 2.2 was like this, but not quite as bad, an 1.5 never did this. It's not super bad, but it's still annoying. I can attach crash logs if you like, but I don't imagine it'd help anything, and I've got my first 5 (I think I'm up to 12-15 by now, and I've only had it for a week) posted in another thread, https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=202465. :helpsmilie:
FragBum Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Not sure about performance from what I can see 2.5 is very good however yes it is a bit problematic with some buggy behaviour and crashing both stand alone and multi player where 2.5 OB seems to crash more often. I couldn't go back to 1.5.x and really think 2.5 will get better over time the programmers are getting a lot of data so they will be able to sort out the issues. Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above. Currently rolling with a Asus Z390 Prime, 9600K, 32GB RAM, SSD, 2080Ti and Windows 10Pro, Rift CV1. bu0836x and Scratch Built Pedals, Collective and Cyclic.
D.Va Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 What are your specs? CPU, GPU, RAM, Resolution? I don't have any problems, but keep in mind this is OpenBeta and a big upgrade, so we can probably expect a few performance problems for 3-6 months!

cthulhu68 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Although you could get away with on board graphics and 8 gigs of RAM with a 1.x version of DCS there's no way 2.x versions are ever going to run well with this set up. Not sure if graphics card is all you need but that at a bare minimum.

FlankerMan Posted February 23, 2018 Author Posted February 23, 2018 Guys, I appreciate your trying to help me, but I don't think I'd really like to tamper with my laptop. I think for now I'll stick with the way things are, for now. Besides, it isn't THAT bad.
Sideslip Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 Something along these lines could help solve your problem while continuing to use that laptop provided it is not ancient: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/everything-need-know-external-gpu/ https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=egpu&ignorear=0&N=-1&isNodeId=1 System specs: i7 3820 @4.75Ghz, Asus P9X79LE, EVGA GTX1080SC @2100mhz, 16GB Gskil DDR3 @ 2000mhz, 512GB 960EVO m.2, 2 X 512GB 860EVO SATA3 in RAID0, EVGA Supernova 850W G2, Phantek Entho Luxe White.
