Flagrum Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) Many of our testers are just fine on 16Gb. Your experience is decidedly odd. What are your full specs? i5 3.2 Ghz, 16MB RAM, GTX970 (latest drivers), SSD. Win7 Try the latest hotfix. It should cure this issue. No, I tried it right after installing the latest hot fix, published on friday - it made no difference. BUT ... it is odd. I followed the advices given here in return and deleted the shader folders (had it done only after the regular update, not after fridays hot fix). AND it deleted the F-14 from CoreMods and Mods in the DCS install folder and had DCS repair it. Not sure, if that was it or just that I had started DCS directly after a reboot ... but at least over Caucasus the Cat now flew just fine! So, I stand corrected and apologize for my outburst earlier... :cry: The F-14 is probably more demanding and requires a bit more housekeeping on the system it is running on, if that does not exactly have an abundance of ressources. So, in the end, I blame now my system more than the F-14. Edited March 23, 2019 by Flagrum

You should be getting smooth (minimal hitching) 30-50 FPS with Mirrors on in most missions and situations as a baseline.

The problem before was related to excessive pagefile activity - I still have no idea what the real cause for that was. Perhaps just a clogged up Windows that ran for too long before I started DCS ...
