uh-1 model performance 1.2.1

[diveplane]

my tests i find this updated model UH-1 quite a FPS performance hitter, noticed also its running 8 external sound files to emulate rotor audios for this model?.

 

dcs world 1.2.1..

IIRC sound is processed in a separated thread/core in the CPU. I don't think sound can saturate a CPU up to stutter/freeze the sim. But maybe UH1 has higher poly count, sharper higher resolution texture that can saturate the VRAM of the Gfx card. Just my 2Cts.

A bit OT:

 

I've been playing around with the AI UH1. Beautiful model, nice real UH1 sound, but I believe that it is way too resistant to to damage. Pilot never gets killed even if the cockpit windows (not front ones, those don't get damaged) are totally pierced by bullets.

 

Also it's a pitty that the 7,62s don't pivot and only shoot forward.

It is quite an fps hit yes. When viewing the SU-25T in F2 i get 25-30 fps, the UH-1H in F2 bogs down 12-15 fps. What to say... Beta?

DCS dont use multithreads/core so yes it would stutter the machine.

In fact, DCS sound is offloaded onto a second core.
