memoric Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Hello So yesterday my new VR Headset (Reverb G2) arrived and I want to try it out now. I have the winwing HOTAS since May 2020, and got no noticeable trouble with it on my old GTX1080ti. I've changed GPU (now a RTX3090) also, just for the new VR Headset. I read somwhere that the winwing software can slow down your fps. How do I counter this? Is the software even necessary to run? Can someone help? I haven't tried it yet as I am still installing DCS. But i want to solve this trouble before. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullant Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Go to you saved games/DCS/scripts folder, open export.lua and check if there are the following two lines referencing the winwing exports, if so remove them. local wwtlfs=require('lfs') dofile(wwtlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/wwt/wwtExport.lua') They added an option in the last version of simappro to not put these entries back every time the app starts up, the other alternative is to go to the simappro settings and point the saved games folder setting to another empty folder so it doesn't mess with your actual saved games folder. My CPU frametimes dropped from 28+ ms to 8ms by removing the WW exports!

GreenHornet Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I was having the same issue with my FPS dropping. I turned off G-Sync and selected FAST for Vertical sync in NIVIDA Control Panel under Manage 3D settings, moved the two lines of lua code to the bottom of the Export.lua file, and checked the box Close the modification of Export.lua file in SimAppPro Settings. I dont know what exactly fixed the FPS drop but it seem like I get a little better FPS than I did before installing SimAppPro and now my lights on my throttle also work properly. Maybe this will help some people out with this issue and narrow down the exact problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed-of-heat Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 the lines of code, this sort of polling will essentially cause the CPU to do work on a very regular basis, taking cycles away from the game in 2d you can get away with it in VR not so much, and in VR you are never going to notice the lights that don't synchronise so you really wont care SYSTEM SPECS: Hardware Intel Corei7-12700KF @ 5.1/5.3p & 3.8e GHz, 64Gb RAM, 4090 FE, Dell S2716DG, Virpil T50CM3 Throttle, WinWIng Orion 2 & F-16EX + MFG Crosswinds V2, Varjo Aero SOFTWARE: Microsoft Windows 11, VoiceAttack & VAICOM PRO YOUTUBE CHANNEL: @speed-of-heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they would update the WinSimApp to either fix it or just let me disable it in there. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

It didn't for me. Check the box to not overwrite the lua. Open the lua and remove the lines indicated above. I went from CPU frametime of 30ms + back down to single digits on Syria single player after turning it off in the settings and deleting the lines from the lua. 1 hour ago, Harlikwin said: Can you post a screen of where that is? Login to the app and click the gear icon. It is about half way down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
