QuasarZero Posted March 28 Posted March 28 (edited) Main issue: As the title says, I'm getting terrible performance in this campaign - my FPS drops to a pitiful 10. I suspect it's because: There are too many units on the map The Syria map itself isn't well optimized My PC specs: CPU: i7 13700 RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200 GPU: RTX 3060 SSD: NVMe M.2 2TB No VR Other problem areas: I also experience lag when flying helicopters low to the ground in the Marianas map - may the dense vegetation really kills performance. What I've Tried: Set to low graphics settings Reducing resolution to 1920x1080 Toggling DLSS on/off During the DCS operation, shut down other non-essential softwares But nothing seems to make Weasels Over Syria playable on my PC...T T ------------------------------------------- However, all other missions and campaigns play smoothly for me at 2560x1440 resolution and High graphics settings, even in F/A-18C Cerberus North Campaign and AV-8B Kerman Campaign from Ground Pounder Sims, these all ran perfectly from start to finish. ------------------------------------------- My Question: In this case, which upgrade would be most effective? RAM: 32GB → 64GB? GPU? I know my RTX 3060 is flat, but it handles most DCS tasks fine. Are there some software settings that I'm not aware of that can increase FPS? Thank you pilots!

Hmm sounds odd, I wouldn't say FIWOS is any heavier than Cerberus North is terms of units, and it's obviously the same map. Do you have TACVIEW enabled? that can be a resource hog on the bigger campaign missions. in terms of upgrades, more RAM would be my advice.
QuasarZero Posted March 29 Author Posted March 29 Yup, Cerberus North use the same syria map, but it perform well actually. And yes, I opened the tacview default. I try disable it, and there can be a certain increase in fps. Thank you ChillNG, I am using low graphic quality and turning off tacview recording, I can basically play at present. I will consider upgrading my hardware devices later. I really hope that in my lifetime, DCS engines and graphics optimization can make historic breakthroughs. 1
