question related to map specific performance

[dutchili]

Question to ED (@bignewy):

In the performance overlay i notice a big difference in the item 'simulation', between the Caucasus map and Syria.

FPS is around 18 in Syria with Simulation indicating 25. 

FPS is around 36 in Caucasus with Simulation indicating 10.

 

The syria server was running the foothold mission, while caucasus was running no mission.

 

Can you explain what 'simulation' means and how this can be effected so my performance is better in Syria?

Hi, 

simulation is what is going on in the mission, AI, tasks and various other things. 

Syria is a newer terrain, detail is high and VRAM requirement is higher than Caucasus which is a much older terrain.

Thanks @BIGNEWY. I thought that mission, ai, tasks etc where server side processing. Am i wrong?

 

However it works, do you have advice on increasing performance in Syria MP through my local settings?

Please let us know your system spec and attach a screenshot of your DCS settings, VR settings, NVIDIA / AMD settings and headset settings 

we may be able to give you some advice 

thanks

Can we change that around? Which local settings will impact the 'simulation' the most?
