Thanatos31 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I'm with Dimi on this - specially when you fly a groundpounder and are rather low most of the time it's very noticable and takes away some of the joy of DCS...but also your FPS.

gdotts Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Every Optimization discussion done before today deals with the perspective of PLANES thousands of feet in the sky. With the upcomming AH-64D Apache comming soon, we have never ever discussed the optimization for this new theater of play.... 300 feet and below. The same rules I would think MAY NOT APPLY, with trees and buildings as a major part of the equasion close up, no longer 5 thousand feet away and now the clouds thousands of feet away as now the polar opposite.

Hiob Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 That‘s not really true. It‘s pretty pointless to make a benchmark 20K feet above the ground in blue sky, and I think most of the guys that invest their time in benchmarking DCS take that into account. (me included).

I’m not too sure about this Hiob. There are many guides recommending low ground textures and flat shadows. Some are even quite dismissive of the effect of those settings. I’d venture they are largely concerned with higher alt flying. @gdotts New theatre of play? There are a good few of us for whom this is and has been the only theatre of play for many years. There is no “may” about it. The demands on the system will be higher and cutting back on the usual jet jock settings will not be graphically pleasing. Sucks to be us.

ollk22 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 This is great, however, I do wonder if simple on/off comparisons is quite enough. Combinations could make cumulative effects and in that case the combinations could be endless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vaguely remember seeing the same effect on Syria (& your memory consumption will be higher with High), but don't have screenshots to prove it Low: High: Reveal hidden contents Low: High: For if i use the Terrain Textures to High my VRAM can't handle and I have VRAM Swapping when looking at textures of the ground, ReBar doesn't help and I loose around 60-90Fps when the VRAM SWapping occurs, so I litterally can't use ground textures on High, witch is the only setting that I want on DCS (Trees and Scenery buildings are at 0.1 I don't care about thoses). I love that my GPU is not the issue but VRAM is, even tho I reduced a Lot my VRAM usage...

I think it's because you are overclocking your computer, I have an RTX 3070 8GB VRAM, I7-9700K, 16GB 3600MHZ RAM and it runs perfectly fine even in VR. Also check your components temperatures if they are over heating. Also I'm using maxed settings on my RTX 3070 build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only "Overclock" was putting a 200MHz higher speed on my RAM aswell increasing the voltage to have more stable RAM, but it might make the RAM less stable at the end, the increase of performance was not worth it at the end The issue was fixed just thanks to putting back the XMP profile of my RAM, temps are all below 70°C during benchmark Edited July 1, 2023 by Loukuins 1 My Setup : i5-4690 3.50GHz + 24GB RAM DDR3 1600MHz + MSI RTX 2060 Super Ventus OC + 2 SSD + 4 HDD + Oculus Rift CV1 + TM T.16000M Hotas Super Etendard for Life !
