Ogma Posted January 24 Posted January 24 (edited) As the title says, I am experiencing periodic FPS drops on multiplayer servers with heavy scripting. The FPS drop is very periodic (every few seconds), and the graphics settings do not seem to affect the occurrence. I am not experiencing this outside of multiplayer or on multiplayer servers with low scripting. For example, if I join the 4YA Aerobatic server with 14 players, I have a smooth experience. However, if I join a 4YA training server or a Grayflag server with 14 players, I experience this periodic drop, as can be seen in the video attached. It should be noted that this video was recorded using the personalized graphics settings attached. However, if I lower the graphics settings to the preset low ones, the issue persists (with lower VRAM usage and higher average FPS but still the periodic one frame freeze). I have read many forum threads and tried numerous things, sadly to no avail, so I have resorted to creating this new topic. Things I have tried/remarks: detailed PC specs are in the log file (i9-9900KF, RTX 3070, 64GB RAM) All mods have been removed Ran a slow repair of DCS DCS is on an SSD Pagefiles are on NVME DCS main folder and saved games folder are set as Windows Defender exceptions All drivers are up to date Shaders have been reset (Deleted the fxo and metashaders2 folders in Saved Game) old track files have been deleted Hotplug devices have been disabled All power-related settings in Windows and NVIDIA Control panel are set to performance Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling is off I am a bit at a loss here and would appreciate some help. Thanks ! 2025-01-24 11-48-28--personalised_2.mp4 dcs.logdcs.log Edited January 24 by Ogma
Solution JD Swann Posted January 24 Solution Posted January 24 Do you have the OH-6 mod installed? I had a similar problem and it turned out to be a file in the scripts folder under saved games. 2 1
Ogma Posted January 24 Author Posted January 24 No way... I had seen that the Oh-6 was causing issues so I removed it but I didn't realise that there was a left-over script in the the Saved Game folder. This would have saved me so much trouble... Thank you very much @JD Swann it was indeed the issue. 1
