Is The FPS Bug Now "Spreading"!??

[Fang333333]

Hey guys,

 

like many of you, my sim has been broke since Feb. I reverted back a version, (before DCS 2.6 Vista) and have been playing outdated glitchy software since.

 

I am noticing that despite me now being several version's behind, the FPS seems to be degrading again! It is as if the old 2.6 build is somehow seeping through. Missions that just a few weeks ago played ok (again on an 2.5) are now becoming UNPLAYABLE!

 

I'm an old Sim Vet but I know nothing about the tech side of things. I would think a bug like this could not cross a different build but sure enough, there is a MAJOR problem. The "Symptoms" of 2.6 (AI decreasing performance, Stennis, Smoke trails) all seem to be seeping into my 2.5 now. I don't know how or what or why, but literally as a symptoms go, there is no other way to explain it.

 

I have not bothered to update again since I reverted back, so how could this be?

edit: I am talking about single missions

 

Thanks all

Question is that when rolling back, all updated changed files where 100% rolled back or not (it should be). This is difficult to check.

If you have the space on your SSD/HD, why don't you install 2 versions, one stable and one Open Beta (and use Skatezilla's updater to decide which one you want to launch)?

This way, your stable version stays stable, if the Open Beta gets wrecked, you still have an option to fall back to and keep playing those missions.

Since 2.5.6 i haven't even touched my Open Beta version, i want to have fun instead of spending my precious time chasing things you can't solve yourself.

Is there a reinstall you recommend? I own nearly all the modules so 2 copys on a SSD is not really possible.
