and with this I’m getting crazy amounts of stuttering and online pretty much crash every time. I know I can just dump all my setting to low but I’m worried about being able to see other players at closer ranges. I’ve noticed that even the main menu seems to tax my graphics card and that just doesn’t seem right. Am I missing something? Halp!
Edit: I just noticed I have HDR on… brb testing…
Edit: well HDR off improved my situation alot so I’ll have to keep messing around… feel like an idiot for not noticing it before. And I cant delete the thread now lol
turn of HDR. try turning down the multi-sampling anti aliasing and the anisotropic filtering. I don’t know how much it would help but I have lens effects turned off too ( I like to pretend I am a pilot, not a camera )
don’t update the cockpit displays every frame. that’s also an FPS killer. if that’s on then every time the screen refreshes it also refreshes the image on any mirrors, MFD’s, Radar displays etcetera. I believe if you turn it off it’ll only refresh around 20 to 30 times per second wich is more than enough to use those displays.
Turning on flat shadows helps too. If flat shadows are off objects in the world can cast shadows on other objects etc and that destroys perfomance for something you likely won’t notice unless you fly helicopters.
