CommandT Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) Hi Folks, Is it just me or has DCS had some sort of obvious performance hit since an update or two ago? In situations where I used to get silky smooth frames I now have very obvious fps loss and stutters. In my particular case I've really noticed it when flying low with 3D grass which never used to be an issue for me. And also over dense forests or big cities such as Incerlik. I haven't changed any of my settings. I can't pin point exactly when this started happening but my guess would be roughly when the moving clouds update came out. I could be wrong. All I know is 2-3 months ago I had no issues. Anyone else experienced anything similar? Cheers! P.S Running latest OB Edited February 28, 2023 by CommandT
Art-J Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 Many of us have. You might be one of the bunch who suffered from shadow issues that 2.8 brought in. More on the topic here: We can only wait and hope that tomorrow's patch (or whenever it lands) will bring some further tweaks. 1 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Yeah I don't know if it's shadow related or not (read through that topic, thanks!) but it seems like 3D grass is making a huge difference to performance. Previously it wasn't ven making a dent in fps. Now it's just horrific Fingers crossed this get's resolved!
