dureiken Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Hi there, I used captzeen export.lua file but I have a huge FPS drop : 20fps, which is strange is that it's at 32 fps without variation when looking in front of me, GPU load 50%, CPU load 20%. I have helios disabled, no Vsyng or gsync. I tried without my second screen plugg, same. Could someone help me ? Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt Zeen Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 That fps drop is not usual. Even with the M2000, the export.lua dont export any data, so, thats weird. Send me your export.lua and i can take a look. Capt_Zeen_HELIOS PROFILES_WEBSITE Capt_Zeen_Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhe Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I have the same problem with export.lua. Fresh install, only added the latest CaptZeen version and once I start duplicating my MFD screens on the touchscreen (below the main screen), the FPS drop like crazy. Also noted a lot of LUA CPU resources being used when looking up the the stats. | i9 12900K | 64GB DDR5-6000 | STRIX RTX 4090 OC | LG 38GN950 38" | | Hanns-G HT225HPB | TIR 5 & Varjo Aero | Virpil Throttle & Stick | TM TPRs | You don't stop playing because you grow old, you grow old because you stop playing.

Capt Zeen Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Please, make the fps test with the export.lua but, do not use more than one screen, just to verify if the problem is the viewport size.

I am on a long deployment right now, so I am limited to my laptop at this time but as soon as I arrive back home, I will dig as deep as I can into it. From the back of my head I can tell you I run a 4k main screen with a 1080p touchscreen underneath it, monitors are arranged vertically in Windows, Helios is the latest build, DCS runs in borderless window mode (as demanded by Helios) and my Export.lua is the latest of CaptZeen's. The lua mods to the A10C instruments are ancient, maybe this is where the ****up happens, but I'll compare them once I arrive home, but this is the place where I'd start looking first. Specs of my rig in signature, I run with SLI disabled but enabling it makes no difference in default mode and gives higher FPS but higher FPS fluctuations and also bad graphics errors when running in AFR2. Since Helios is open sourced now, why has nobody taken it up and started modernizing it? I am not a programmer but I'd love that so much as I am generally a tad happier with Helios than I am with Ikarus even when Ikarus does stuff like automatically switching between profiles when switching aircraft etc. | i9 12900K | 64GB DDR5-6000 | STRIX RTX 4090 OC | LG 38GN950 38" | | Hanns-G HT225HPB | TIR 5 & Varjo Aero | Virpil Throttle & Stick | TM TPRs | You don't stop playing because you grow old, you grow old because you stop playing.

dureiken Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 It's crazy : I changed my MB and CPU, fresh windows 10 64bits install, no second screen plugged in, and it's the same. I also tested DCS in FR and english, tried HDMI instead of DP, 8GB of memory instead of 16GB... @Capt Zeen is there a way to see what's going wrong when the file export.lua is in scripts folder ? a kind of spy ? thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhe Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Ok, I tried again with the current stable build and enabled all the bits and pieces step by step. The performance drop is gone, seems to have been patched behind the scenes. Finally Helios again! | i9 12900K | 64GB DDR5-6000 | STRIX RTX 4090 OC | LG 38GN950 38" | | Hanns-G HT225HPB | TIR 5 & Varjo Aero | Virpil Throttle & Stick | TM TPRs | You don't stop playing because you grow old, you grow old because you stop playing.

Roger01 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Hello, I have the same problem. Fresh install Helios 1.4 (tested with the 1.3 too) : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/fr/files/3302014/ I just add the line "(lfs.writedir()..'Scripts\\Helios\\HeliosExport.lua')" in export.lua and I get a huge FPS drop (45~ fps instead of 80~ ) just loading a game, doing nothing more. This is not the Capt Zeen profil (f18c) et not the Helios app itself (I don't launch the Control Center att all for testing) , but I think is HeliosCore.lua coz I just rename HeliosCore and I left (lfs.writedir()..'Scripts\\Helios\\HeliosExport.lua') without any fps drop (it's sure that Helios does not work without HeliosCore).
