Laika007 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Hello, when I fly the F-18 in the Marianas, it is very stuttery/sluggish. Can the Marianas be used in VR? Thanks, Edited December 19, 2021 by Laika007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speed-of-heat Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 At the moment the map, over water is fine, go overland and you drive a slide show… it’s not optimised the same way the other maps… same settings, as I use every where else. 2 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annapolis81 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) For the last couple of months, I have been creating (and flying) carrier-based missions for the FA-18C, Supercarrier, and the Marianas Island map with no special problems. Because the MI map is highly detailed on land, I do have to use lower DCS settings for AG missions to avoid hanging and stuttering in VR. However, I am able to use higher DCS settings for AA engagements over the water-- which is nearly two/thirds of the map. Consequently, it depends entirely on what type of missions you wish to fly. As for me, the MI map is the best map DCS has created so far. Hope this helps. (Currently working on a modern version of the "Marianas Turkey Shoot").

RED Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I get normally around 60 FPS but Guam brings it down to 45 if not 30 when flying very low. No stutters or anything but just a lot less FPS than usual. IMO Nellis can be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing a lot of similarities in naming conventions and directory structures between Marianas and Syria. Interesting question. Another similarity is that these are the only two maps that the terrain kneeboard has not been implemented.

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 1 hour ago, speed-of-heat said: i dont get that problem in syria... I mean comparing to all-water to low-alt land. Downtown Beirut is really bad, I have not checked out Damascus for quite a while so I cannot be certain. Moreover, big cities in the Syria map are dense, not as dense as in MSFS, probably the highest density in terms of buildings. So I don't get why this and the Channel maps are such a big framerate eater. I dunno but i have no problem flying through Vegas at low alt. In the desert is even better.

Hi all, That's exactly my experience as well... Even with reduced settings, can't get it work smoothly over lands.
