Oldirty Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Hi all, I was wondering what graphics settings I should use in order to get the best frame rate for graphics. I noticed when i'm firing guns the game starts to slow down alot. My specs I7 q760 {1.6} Ati 5870 hd 1gb 6gb ram

JIMJAM Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Ive got a 5870,6 gigs and a I7 but its running at 2.9 so I know you are struggling. All you can do is turn it all down. The things that effect me the most are shadows. Turn them off. Then make sure you have plenty of hd space and do and good defrag. Close all background programs so they do not suck up resources you do not have. As is, I run very smooth. However as with all other DCS releases, throw in AI and the sim slows down big time. As far as battles,lots of enemies fighting it out. Forget about it!
Bearcat Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Hmmmm looking at this makes me realize I am gong to have to at the very least install my new HD because the one I have now is almost full.. I have a New HD & W7 just itching to be installed.. especially before W8 comes out .. LOL.. but I am running an Fx-60 w 4 G of RAM.. I may have to just break down and do that upgrade thing that I have been putting off...

kokoweems Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 All at low. To be honest, that CPU of yours is going to be a huge bottleneck. I concur. I have a 3930k overclocked at 4.5 and the game slows down to a slideshow during large rocket and artillery barrages.
sobek Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Please keep in mind that for P-51D, new effects were introduced that are very likely to not be tuned for FPS impact yet. We had the same problem with the A-10 gun in the beta and it was eventually solved during the optimisation process. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
JIMJAM Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Thats good to hear because a stutter or slow down on a gun run is a total immersion killer. It would be nice to have a separate slider or high-med -low in the graphics options just for such effects. Explosions,smoke ect....
