How does P51 run (FPS/stutter) compared to A10 or Shark?

[BTTW-DratsaB]

I was wondering if in cockpit FPS are much increased compared to the A10 or the Shark? Given that there is less going on, no MFD screens etc.

 

How do you guys find it?

[HiJack]

The frames are now just great for my settings. All on full and 30 - 50 frames. Really nice. In A-10C I get 20 - 30 for the same landscape. They must have solved some graphic issues I think.

To me it runs slower than previous sims. Especially if you like using zoom function.

[Bodo]

Runs nicely for me, somewhat better than A10. Looking forward to comparing the perf difference when we can try BS and A10 within World.

[Sel94]

It runs a little better than A-10 for me.

[element1108]

Runs a bit better for me as well, will most likely improve though at final.

[TomDK]

Also bettet for me, think due to nö mfcd and nö Second Monitor with Helios so far.

Only the Throttle is strange behaving Emile using HOTAS.

I have around 40 fps, A-10 around 30.

I haven't used zoom much at all, will have to take a look. I was going to agree that is seems to run at least as good as A-10, load times may even be better but A-10 is on an SSD and P-51/World is not, yet.

[Smokin Hole]

It runs worse for me. As a benchmark I use the black shark mission, "Battle". I added overcast and snow. In that mission A-10 runs best, BS same or slightly slower, P-51 slower still and the Su25t is a slug, especially with the Skhval on.

[Smokin Hole]

The P-51 also runs worse than A-10 around airfields on my PC. Other P-51's in my view bring me down to near slide-show levels.

[Nasum]

For me the A10 runs a little bit better than the P-51. The P-51 runs not bad but 3-4 FPS more would be fine.

[BigToe]

In order, the A10C runs better then the Black Shark 2 and the Black Shark 2 runs better then the P51D.

Using TrackIR it is noticeably slower. So I do not use it. I mapped my hat views.

 

I get about the same as the A-10C or the Ka-50. Slower with lots of trees and buildings around. I set my settings to medium, some stuff off, but my Visib Range is set to High.

 

Lower resolution may increase frame rates. I run at my stock speed.

[Teeps]

Just adding my two pennies worth - I find the P-51 is noticeably worse for framerate than the Black Shark in DCS World.

[recoilfx]

Click to flip up the mirror on the P-51. I found that it was killing my FPS even though i have a GTX 670.

[WildBillKelsoe]

runs better than BS2, and A-10. A-10 middle performance.

[Hellfire257]

FPS with the P-51 is poor for me.

[Ali Fish]

for me p51 is best. not that i need to look at the FPS in any of them. quite the opposite, i dont need to look and if that is the case then there is no fps problems (for me) unless i put mirrors on (GF670) then it all falls apart at the seems.

 

the a10 and Ka50 were designed under different circumstances and dont share alot of commonality with the p51s design infrastructure imho. one one hand the p51 is more simpler, yet calling on more visualy aesthetic shaders. but are we talking cockpit internal frame rates or external viewing frame rates ????

 

iam really surprised that some have worse fps with the p51 given the lack of mfd`s etc but i feel the answer lies in the materials used on the model and wether one`s grapyhics card allows such powerfull shaders, its not used to doing it with the a10 and ka50. texture memory is being used more extensivly at a local level with the p51 especially for external viewing.

P-51 internal cockpit is a slide slow for me compared to the A-10. Maybe it's the vibration effect in the center console that's killing it in the P-51? Is there any way to turn that effect off or tone it down a bit for me to test?

[Smokin Hole]

I don't know if there is any ability to adjust the vibration effect (in fact I never noticed it). I did want to say that I feel as if the performance has improved considerably since 1.2 (placebo effect perhaps). Something else I notice is that I fly zoomed back in the P-51 (wide FOV) more so than the other two. That may have an effect on real or percieved performance.
