Shader Cache Recommendation

[Teeter]

Hey Devs,

 

It seems like it's very common to have issues after an update that are resolvable by deleting the \fxo\ and \metashaders2\ folders from the [user]\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta directory.

 

I've also heard of some people getting general framerate boosts by doing this after an update, but it's not necessarily issue-driven that they do so.

 

Would it make sense to have the installer delete these folders automatically when the game is updated, to allow the shader cache to be regenerated? Or perhaps at least prompt the user to do so?

 

Thanks!
