Massive FPS drop when firing rounds =(

[Anatoli-Kagari9]

Originaly I beilieve I had that problem too, but with present settings, and using nvidia inspector, not only 1fps drops when I fire the guns, no matter what vew I am in, and my system is not the top... i5@3.3, ASUS Nvidia 450 GTS 1GB DDR3 !!!

So what you did?

 

I got Q6600@3.2ghz + gtx 560TI and i got huge fps during firing ( also when other firing too).

 

Any solution?

 

Edit.

 

Tried disable 0.50 cal shell but not help. Still huge fps drop with firing rounds from any plane - sometimes more sometimes less fps drop

Im a bit concerned that its known to be a huge issue with the current model, I dont see it mentioned yet as a potential fix in the change log? Am I missing something?

[Foul Ole Ron]

I would think that it's being covered (at least partly anyway) in the change log under:

 

DCS World

• Tuned aircraft gun smoke.

I agree. It's one of the top things I think need to be resolved. Yesterday I was in a low-level strafing run in MP and it occurred...with a less than ideal outcome.

I see that as very vague, I would have expected this topic to be covered under a P51 module topic, but there is not one listed, so I hope you are right, but its certainly not clear.

[Ratfink]

I've cured it on my rig - by upgrading to the spec in sig :)

[WildBillKelsoe]

I can confirm this. In multiplayer, it also lags when your buddy fires, or you fire for that matter. Solution? Short 1 sec bursts.

[Fakum]

Ratfink, which component would you say attributed to the success of you eliminating the FPS we all get when guns are fired?

[Fakum]

Thats pretty much what I thought,,,,,,

[Shahdoh]

My guess is the Bose sound system, that always helps eliminate problems..

 

:music_whistling:

[Fakum]

Of course! what was I thinking :doh:

[Fakum]

Is it me or this issue has not been addressed in the 1.2.3. update?

[willzah1313]

I think it was his power cord that did it.

[DD_Fenrir]

Improvement for me on this issue with 1.2.3 - the tracer smoke looks far more realistic to my eye too, much less dense and dissipates more quickly. Still a slight hit to frames but not the slide show I was experiencing before.

[Fakum]

Yeah, I was on for a bit last night, I do see improvement for sure,,, was worried that it wasnt addressed

[Fakum]

Now that I have had some MP time, I do appreciate the improvement, dont get me wrong, but I do see it still when there are a few of us teamed up going against a couple AI's.

[Merlin-27]

Yep, what Fakum said. Yesterday in MP with 6 human and 2 AI aircraft there was some noticeable lag when rounds where being fired. However, it is much better than it was previously.

HI!

 

I was tried online P-51 dogfight and im not happy.

 

Still there are some sttuters, huge fps drop during shoting and i think huge fps drop beacuse of clouds.

 

So generally game is not smooth and little unplayable for me :(

 

Offline mission against AI is playable mostly 60-30 fps but still very huge fps drop during long shoting :(

 

I was hope for better optimialization expecially for shoting and clouds.

 

I got Q6600@3.2Ghz, 4 GB Ramm, Gtx 560Ti, Win7 64 bit.

[Fakum]

Thats not my expierience at all,, all my graphics settings are maxed out on a 30" monitor running 2560x1600. Before the 123 update, the fps drop was horrible, there has been significant improvement that I have seen, I still get dropps with about 4 of us in there, but if I had to throw a number at it, Id say I have seen an 80% improvement. Maybe your settings? I dont know, Im pretty happy with the frame rates in Multi that I am expieriencing. Id like to see more improvement with the FPS drop while firing, but I guess I shouldnt complain so quicky after the last improvement.

[Kwiatek]

These is problem which not only i got.

 

In 1.2.3 version is little better beacuse when heavy firing rounds there is not slide show like before but still there is huge fps drop even from 60 fps till around 10-14 fps.

 

Normally i got 60-40 fps during flying but with firing rounds there are huge fps drop.

 

Also i notice that with clouds fps is much less av. 20-45 fps.
