[DCSISSUE] Rocket Framerate Issue

[Charly_Owl]

In the Viggen, I've noticed that there is a significant framerate drop/stutter when launching all rockets at once. If I go by smaller salvos, the framerate drop is manageable (not that bad), but a full salvo with 4 pods brings you in the 10 FPS range when rockets are fired.

 

I have a pretty beefy setup (64 gb RAM, Nvidia RTX2070), and I think it should be looked at.

Hi Chuck. Does it look like the AIM-120 FPS drop (1:50 in the video)? If so, it may be an issue ED has to fix.

No, it's always been there since as long as I can remember. I don't get FPS drops with Amraams or with HVAR rockets.

Here's a very short track. I go from 55 FPS to 45 FPS.

How is your framerate doing?

That's probably one of the reasons ED will be making new effects for those. From the latest newsletter:
