Hi Radge,
Looks like you installed some incompatible mod on top.
@all: Thanks for the kudos.
My personal experience shows a dichotomy:
Yesterday when I joined the server with 8 players online, I couldn't get more than 10fps out of my machine. I checked the server load and it didn't look like this limit was server related.
Retried the same today with same settings (and not even restarted the server or it's game instance inbetween) and with 3 players online plus a whole bunch of AI aircraft (20 or so) the gameplay was absolutely fine.
I'm wondering if others had low framerates as well. If so, please report here.
Currently a few possible reasons come up my mind:
- The server has skin downloads enabled. If anything else fails, I might disable them for testing
- The net speed setting of the server is quite high, I might try to reduce it a bit
- The current map has F-84 with nukes on it. Maybe someone dropped a nuke. I know that my system is very sensible and drops fps quickly in case of large scale explosion effects
- Maybe the number of smoke effects on destroyed ground objects caused the lag. Yesterday we've had much ground attack action while today we were rather practicing
No clue at the moment, I'm not the brightest guy in the il-2 server operators' room...
Best regards
