Bad FPS After Latest Update

[Shortcut]

Just updated DCS Beta to the latest version and my FPS seem locked between 26 and 28 FPS. It does not matter which aircraft I fly A-10c, F-18 or the P-51 or where I fly over the desert over Vegas or over the Ocean on the ground or if I’m at 1,000 feet or 20,000 feet.

 

 

Prior to the update I never went below the mid 30’s on the ground and 60 Plus FPS flying and that’s at 7680 X 1440 and not below the upper 40’s at 2560 X 1440.

 

 

I tried the DCS Repair tried reducing the settings and have the same 26 to 28 FPS V-Sync is off in the Nivida Control panel and game.

 

 

I also updated the official version and have the same problem plus 1 when I log in it tells me DCS is off line and will not load all my aircraft.

 

 

I have not made any changes to my setting or PC. I think my system can handle it see system below.

 

 

I also have X Plane 11 that’s running fine over 30 FPS at 7680 X 1440 and the setting are pretty maxed out and 60 Plus at 2560 X 1440.

 

 

Any Ideas Thanks

I had the same issue with previous udate, and when i istalled latest Nvidia drivers everything got fixed.

[Shortcut]

Installed latest drivers last night driver version 417.71 maybe I'll try an older version

 

 

Tried driver 391.35 still FPS read out says no lower than 26 FPS and Max is 28 FPS no matter what or where I fly. Maybe a problem with FPS counter?

Had a bad experience with express install of 417.71 from 417.35. DDU and try again, let us know ;)

[Shortcut]

Uninstalled anything that said Nvidia installed 391.35 no difference uninstalled 391.35 reinstalled 417.71 no difference. Redid the DCS Repair no change

 

 

Next:

 

 

I downloaded a new copy of DCS Beta last night to a different drive and FPS are back up and running good.

 

 

Any idea which files could cause the problem I realty don't want to have to re-download everything.

It's fixed only way was to copy mods to new DCS Beta down. After that copied DCS that folder to correct M2 drive then delet old DCS beta. But at lease its working.

I found what caused the original locking of my FPS.

 

I was trying to use a Android app with DCS called the Hornet UFC Is has a additional program that's called DCS Device Server this program adds 2 files to the Saved Games Folder under Scripts. They a folder called DEVICEWORKS and a LUNA file called Export.

 

I deleted both files and I'm back over 100 FPS @ 7680 X 1440 (3 monitors). If the developer can get it to work it will be a nice addition to DCS your be able to put the UFC on a tablet or your phone. He also going to do one for the A-10C.
