SkipCarey Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Im unable to find any recent posts about simapp and its issues with FPS in DCS (Most posts are over a year old) anyone having any updated info would be greatly appreciated, I just bought the TPO and and combat panels and Im leary about winwings software.
rob10 Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) I just tried it again a week or so ago. In my case (vsync on) if I leave it running to get the A-A/A-G light export to the Orion throttle I get a consistent 50 FPS instead of the 60 I get without it running. Remove the lines from the export.lau and I'm back up to 60. It works great for setting everything up, but for me the loss isn't worth leaving it running to have the AA/AG lighting synced. I would try it if I were you though. Some people report seeing no impact on FPS and it's literally as simple as deleting 2 lines in the export.lau file to get them back if you are taking a hit.

I fly exclusively in VR so lights dont mean anything to me and I dont mind mapping it myself so..............I think Ill pass for now I just got DCS running decently in VR and Im leary of anything that might screw with it. Thanks for the replies

Thanks for the replies If you don't need the lights there is no reason to leave it running for sure. However, if you want to change behaviour of switches or tune the afterburner to match exactly with the detent (see pinned topic at the top of Winwing subforum) you can run it once and change what you want then ignore it and never use it again (make sure to check that it didn't add the lines in the export.lau). No impact on game used that way. Not running is how I use it as I prefer to manually bind in game rather than through the Winwing software (and not willing to take the hit to sync lights).
