I'd like to report one small texture issue regarding the B-8m1 pylons missing textures Thank you again I think @Taz1004 knows about this. Syria and AIM-9X are missing textures also. 1 Specs: i7 13700KF @ 5.5, 64Gb RAM, RTX 4090, Pimax Crystal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply, this is what I ended up doing, and it seemed to have worked. For what it's worth, I didn't see much off an improvement, but maybe it's because my rig is already fairly decent?

The main benefit of these are the savings in VRAM, if you're not VRAM constrained then the performance benefit will be minimal if any. 1 12900KF | Maximus Hero Z690 | ASUS 4090 TUF OC | 64GB DDR5 5200 | DCS on 2TB NVMe | WarBRD+Warthog Stick | CM3 | TM TPR's | Varjo Aero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram69 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I've always stayed away from texture mods and haven't used a mod manager for DCS until today. Was reading about this last night so decided to give it a go today. Watching back a track on Marianas map with settings that max my 3080's 10GB of dedicated VRM, here's how it looks with these optimized textures disabled: And, here's how things look with them enabled: I'm still maxing out my dedicated vram with those particular settings and that map, but the savings are clear.

Thanks for your work on this @Taz1004 I have identical behaviour with 8Gb VRAM. Unfortunately the savings, though substantial, aren't enough for me to avoid stuttering. Guess this was the last nail in the coffin for the 3060ti and will upgrade to the 3090. Offtopic: Love the trees mod by the way! That definitely is a game changer for me, as they know look steady and not flickering as I fly by. 2 Quest Pro + Ryzen 5700x + Nvidia 3090 + 64GB RAM WW F16EX Stick + WW F15EX Throttle + 2x TM MFD + ICP Replica + BBJ Buttonbox F16C & F15E & A10 C2 & FC3 + CAU & NTTR & PG & SYR & MAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for the texture issue of the B-8M1 rocket pod I found that three files are missing in the AeroWeapons.zip file of the Bazar\World\textures folder that are existing in the origin file: b20_diff.dds b20_diff_RoughMet.dds b20_NM.dds I copied them from the original zip, halved the size of the b20_diff_RoughMet.dds and b20_NM.dds (I left the b20_diff.dds unchanged) and added them to the AeroWeapons.zip of Taz1004's Optimized Core Textures mod. Now the B-8M1 rocket pod has textures again.

I don’t know, but my guess is they will still make a difference VRAM wise. I don’t think ED has done much with textures for this patch though I’m unsure how much of a difference their work on LOD’s does for VRAM usage. I just enabled the mod in my mod manager and ran with it. Haven’t done any proper testing.
