Hyundae Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) Set the "terrain textures" to low in the graphics options. In most cases, the problem is solved. The Syria map, unlike other maps, consumes a lot of resource memory. In my case, the Gulf map used 11G while the Syria map used 23G of resource memory, and when the terrain textures was set to low, it was reduced to 13.5G, and I was able to play smoothly. Single play & No AI Considering the low-medium PC users, the Syria map seems to need optimization.

Hyundae Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) Limit your preload radius to no more than 50% Thank you for your advice, but in my case, even if I gave 50% to 0%, the freezing was not resolved.

veenee Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Setting Terrain textures to Low fixed it for me, thanks. So many modules, so little time... www.mikphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealius Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 RTX2070 with preload radius set to 70k. Still stutters. I'll try the terrain textures setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nealius Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Upgraded my rig to an i5-9600k OC'ed to 4.7GHz. Set terrain textures to LOW and I still have the same amount of stuttering as my stock i5-7600 at 3.6Ghz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erdem Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 32 Gbs of RAM and 11 Gbs of VRAM (1080 Ti)and I'm still stuttering online on this map. I set the textures to medium and it still stutters while Persian Gulf flows beautifully at maximum settings. This map badly needs optimization.

If yes, it should be taken it into account when upgrading GPU, especially regarding new nVidia gpus spec. i7-7820X@4.5Ghz; GPU 3080Ti, 64GB RAM, HP Reverb G2; VKB Ultimate stick; VIRPIL Throttle; Slaw Pedals; custom AX&BTN BOX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glide Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I had a strange stuttering issue the other day after moving around a bunch of units. The mission was so bad I had to force quit DCS. I suspected a really bad path-finding issue caused the problem. I went into the ME and cleared up all the way-points, and the mission was playable again. Hope this helps.

SFC Tako Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Now all of a sudden I get way better performance. I can use my old settings apart from having the pre-load radius at half. Either my computer just got healthy again or the sneaky russians sneaked in a top secret update in the latest patch.

fitness88 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Does anyone know why flying low over any of the big cities in the Syria map causes audio stutter with no loss in FPS however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notproplayer3 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yep, I know I've not got a very powerful pc by today's standards (i7-6700k, 16bg ram, gtx970) and I know the syria map is pretty beautiful but this map is absolutely unplayable for me with all the stutters while the persian gulf runs flawlessly. It's really not an fps issue I think, just the stutters... Full fidelity su27/mig29 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
