@Hangar200 im coming after your derailment belt!

Basically with that mod, and playing that same mission we did last week @smokinhole (the one with 20-30 AI jets and 7-8 players) its rock steady at 40fps on the Supercarrier, and 80fps flying around afterwords.

Thanks, thanks, thanks, Gunny. I’ll give it a go. S!

BFI kills my FPS as well - I keep thinking there is an object there or in the vicinity that is unoptimized or something…

Actually the derailment happened to come in very handy yesterday. :grin:

Summary

So I’ve read these posts about DCS settings in VR. Interesting but I had never had slow performance.

Then yesterday I’m working on a mission where I want a couple of separate enemy BRMD-2 to continuously travel around a circuit of roads. (The idea being that, depending on how you fly, they will be in different places when you fly by and shoot at you.)

So a nice circuit with On Road set at the wa points and the last WP with a Change Waypoint command to the 1st WP. That don’t seem to work, so I put a Change Waypoint command at every WP to head it to the next; the last WP points to WP1. Seems reasonable / logical.

I’m flying (Mi-8) with the display settings I always use and all of a sudden I get low-single digit FPS. Reset and try again. Happens again but at a different place.

So I jump right back to this thread and other DCS specific threads and start reading it intently. I make some adjustments but…my settings seemed to be OK…looked like I need that shadder thing. (I also looked at various PC component performances but they all looked OK)

I decide to think about it and switched to seeing how the BRMD-2s were working. Started the sim, set where I could see the whole “track” of one and accelerated the time…then Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

It seems the commands were somehow overriding the On Road setting…after a couple of WP the vehicle started roaming around the country side, mostly in the general direction of the next WP, but doing circles and other zany moves until it hit a tree and “got stuck” … :thinking:
…and my FPS suddenly went into the toilet. :astonished:

No reason to beat yourself up bro. I don’t remember those alternative ASW modes being in the Oculus Tray Tool from just a few weeks back! Again, thanks for the heads up! :slight_smile:
