Microstutters, I'm considering quitting DCS

It is easier to disable the hyperthreading. But then he should remeber to enable it each time he finished to play DCS.

As for me I have set the affinity mask through the shortcut on my desktop (one time) and it is much easier just to run the game as usualy without disabling and enabling hyperthreading for each run.

My PC can't handle all the graphical settings but when the "Multithreading" version was firstly introduced, I didn't had any microstutters at all. The microstutters has started after updating to 2.9.7.58923. I didn't touched any graphical settings, they stayed as they were always. But the microstutters has just tarted to appear in v2.9.7.58923. There is a lot of people here by the way who have PCs with very high specs and they have the same problems. Just open the forum on "DCS 2.9 -> Game Performance Bugs" and see how many people complaining about microstutters and performance reduction after the latest update. So it is not only the graphical options but there is definitely a problem in the game itself.

The last two updates by the way, were rushed. The next update is a planned update. So I hope they will fix a lot of bugs.

 

can you show what you have added to the shortcut to exclude HT-Cores?

Just read my post here, it is No 13 from the top. It explains how to set an affinity mask:

It is not disabling Hyperthreading but forces to run DCS on physical cores. So the hyperthreaded (virtual) cores should not be used.

I cannot 100% assure you that it will help you. But it did the trick for me, so it worth trying.
