I don't get what is your point? Can't terrain engine be coded with Multithreading? Aren't there building and trees (objects) on this terrain? Isn't there terrain mesh? Why can't they be coded to be calculated on separate CPU's? Isn't that my whole point asking for Multithreading to improve FPS?

Well....rather than that..its way more efficient to run terrain on one core..all of it, run AI, physics on another core, then graphics/objects on another core in link with another core and finally sound on the last core. I mean look at something that is as intense as Frostbite 2. Before saying its not a simulator, sometimes its nice to look and learn from games like BF3 and GTA4. They used multiple cores and on a quad core PC, they run gorgeously. All the flash and all the substance in one package (atleast for GTA ;)). ED are poised in the position to truly make a next generation flight sim. We have the 3d models, we have the physics and the background. If only they were open to licensing other technologies and engines, perhaps it would offset some of their work...especially for stuff like graphics, lighting engine etc.

So Multithreading is really, REALLY a MUST now, and if EDGE doesn't bring it my hopes will be shattered :(

About Multithreading:

 

"We are working on DCS to saturate all your beloved cores, but it's a long road to go.

 

Right now, the main part of DCS - simulation and graphics is still single threaded.

Graphics drivers became quite capable of using several cores, that's why multicore cpus does improve performance.

Also, new sound engine is quite cpu-hungry (it is completely software) and runs in a separate thread (actually, 2 threads - one for rendering, another for loading). So, I'd recommend at least a dual core cpu for DCS and FC2.

 

The new design for simulation part, capable of using many cores, is mostly done, but DCS is a very complex application and converting it to a different internal architecture is not an easy task, so, please, be patient.

Thanks. One of my fav sim years ago.

And this is also a way to subtly hypnotize ED team up to make them DCS: F/A-18c or e...

Muhahahahaha! Infallible plan! :music_whistling:

sorry - a little man in my head forces me to ask this question:

 

Will there be any updates to planes that aren't included in FC3 up to now?

Are there any MiG-35's serving in real airforces, anywhere in the world?

 

Will there be any Mig-35 updates in the near future?

I am generally pretty patient with these things, but really it was supposed to be out a month ago. Is it gonna be coming out any time soon...? Should I hold my breath? Is this vaporware?

It's not vaporware. Do you know the amount of fixes and additions the dev did in the last 30 days? I about choked on the list. Stuff you all asked to be fixed is in there. They added some stuff. Wags isn't dicking around guys. He and the dev team are kicking ass and taking names. I have no doubt you all will like what you get. Again I probably said too much and will get fired. I just want you all its coming, just stand by one...

You'll get fired for saying "stuff you all asked to be fixed is in there"?? What kind of ball and chain do these guys have you dragging around :thumbup:

And I was just about to make a massive post commenting on how the Sims 3: Showtime "Katy Perry Collector's Edition" did not live up to my expectations. Way to be a killjoy. :)
