BlackPixxel Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 Hi! When I get close to a F-14 (not more than a few hundret meters), my DCS will freeze for a few seconds while the F-14 is loading. I don't have this issue with any other aircraft in DCS. I suspect that it is caused by insufficient optimization of the LOD/textures. I have DCS on a fast M.2 SSD, so it is unlikely to be caused by a slow harddrive. It would be nice if that issue could be looked at, as it is very frustrating, especially if it happens during a close fight. Thank you!
Callsign JoNay Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 A few seconds? That's quite extreme. How much RAM do you have?
BlackPixxel Posted August 27, 2021 Author Posted August 27, 2021 16 GB. It is may 2 seconds or so. Just had it again on a server while landing in the dark. From EOS I knew that there was an aircraft on the taxiway next to me. I could not see it, but as I drove by my game froze twice for a short moment. So I knew that it was an F-14. Opening the F-10 map confirmed it.
Callsign JoNay Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 Try adding more RAM if you can. I was getting terrible micro pauses as new objects would come into my vicinity. Not 2 second pauses, more like 10-15 frames I'd say. But very regular even with a large page file. After I upgraded to 32 gigs all the pauses went away. I don't think 16 gigs is sufficient for DCS anymore.
BlackPixxel Posted August 27, 2021 Author Posted August 27, 2021 It might help, but why would it only happen with the F-14? Any other module is optimized enough to not cause this issue.
