FPS problems

[jlan5031jlan5031]

Since the latest update, my game has dropped from 60 to circa 5fps. Nothing has changed in settings that I can see. I don't use VR. I've been searching here all day and have found nothing that relates to my problem. I'm a sub-species when it comes to computer skills. I've searched to find how to enable fps on the screen without success. I like the game so much, but it's suddenly unplayable.

Any help out there would be gratefully appreciated.

Jason said that any changes they make about the scene quality or bringing new tech might affect the FPS you get, despite the devs trying to keep those as you had them. You might need to tweak your stettings slightly to get those 5 fps back. (Although I wonder what makes that such a deal breaker for you.)

I think that he went from 60fps to 5, not 55

To see the FPS counter just hit Backspace

Thank you for your replies. I now can show my fps. Like I wrote, I've gone down from a smooth 60fpe to 2-9fps. The game is unplayable. I think it must have been the last update. All was fine before that. My problem is, I don't know what to do. I can't be the only one who has this problem. The game is slow to load. The cursor is hard to control.

If anyone has any ideas for solutions, I'd be most happy to read them.

Below is a copy of the text.log ni the data folder. Also Steam reports one file is corrupted when Verifying. It will recapture the file. I don't know how long it will take. I've tried verification three times in the last hour with the same answer. Now I'm going to try to reinstall the latest update.

I don't know what else to try.

Thank you for your replies. I now can show my fps. Like I wrote, I've gone down from a smooth 60fpe to 2-9fps. The game is unplayable. I think it must have been the last update. All was fine before that. My problem is, I don't know what to do. I can't be the only one who has this problem. The game is slow to load. The cursor is hard to control.

If anyone has any ideas for solutions, I'd be most happy to read them.

Below is my computer information.

Model:

Dell XPS 8490

 

CPU/Processor:

Intel Core i7-9700, 8 cores, 3GHz

 

RAM/Memory:

64GB DDR4, 2666Ghz

 

Hard drives/Storage

Micron 2200S NVMe SSD 512GB (C:)

Toshiba DT01ACA200 HD 2TB (D:)

 

Video hardware/GPU:

GeForce GTX 1660 Ti

Total video memory ~38GB

Dedicated video memory 6144MB

Shared system memory 32688MB

 

 

Well, something tells me that you're not running the game on your actual graphic card - the GTX 1660 TI - but rather on your internal
graphic chip. Make sure you have your GTX 1660 TI selected as your dedicated graphic card, otherwise it will run on your internal
graphic chip (part of your Intel's CPU) - this won't work and you will have this slideshow you described above.

[jlan5031jlan5031]

Therion,

Thank you for your reply and suggestion. I think my 1660 card is selected. I opened NVIDIA>PhysX settings and changed from Auto Select to 1006. The other choice was CPU, but it made no difference. I have 3 other sims, RoF, CoD, and XPlane11. They all work with no change. I noticed in the Steam forum, there were several e-mails with this same problem, but no solutions were offered. Steam validated all the files. I figure the problem has to be in the game folders/files someplace, but I don't trust myself enough to monkey around in there without any guidance. In my last e-mail I included a list of failures from the text.log hoping that might shed some light.

Anyway, I appreciated your effort and my thanks again.

[jlan5031jlan5031]

I found this in my gui.log: Error: Unknown file format at URL "swf\il2/fonts/fonts.gfx"

Is this significant?

[Hoss]

I hate to say you may need to reinstall, when I come up against something like that, it's what I do.  You could delete your startup.conf folder to start with, the game will generate a new one when you start the game, but you will have to go back and do all your graphic settings and some of your other stuff, save your input folder inside the data folder for your joystick settings.

[jlan5031jlan5031]

Hoss,

Thanks for your reply. I started to follow your directions, and, at first, it seemed my fps problem was being solved. But I think I put the input folder back in too soon, because I was unable to increase the size of the game to fit the whole screen which I'd always had. Somehow, I must have done something, but when restarting the game would begin with good fps, but about halfway after starting, the game froze and the following message appeared: D3D_ERROR

                                                  DXRendererII::endFrame(..)DXGl_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED0x887a0005

The only way I could continue was to restart the computer, but the same thing would happen. So, I uninstalled and reinstalled the game on Steam, but the error message still appeared. I hope you, or someone, would have some ideas. I've never had any problems with Steam before, but the only complaints about the fps problem appear only in the Steam comments about the new update. How would I go about downloading and installing a non Steam version?

Sorry to be so long-winded, but I don't have the least notion of what to do.

Thanks again for your reply'

[jlan5031jlan5031]

FPS Solved. D3D_ERROR arises

It just seemed to solve itself. It appears hysteria was unnecessary.

However I seem to have done something I shouldn't and nowthe fps are restored, but the game freezes before it is completely open. The folowing message appears.

D3DERROR

FAILED load: GRAPHICS\ICONS\ROUNDARROW.DDS (graphics\textures\common\ROUNDARROW.DDS)

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

[jlan5031jlan5031]

First, my thanks to all who've tried to help me.

My C Drive is pretty full. Is there a way to change it to my D  drive?

Every thing worked out after my 3rd reinstall except my fps. It's climbed to low=4, high =25. I've set and reset Graphics without any success. I've begun to think IL2 may have passed beyond my present system's capabilities. I hope someone will take a look and let me know what they think.

You can move your games in your steam library like this:

https://www.howtogeek.com/269515/how-to-move-a-steam-game-to-another-drive-without-re-downloading-it/

 

Also I think the errors you are getting are due to the game running on your CPU's internal iGPU despite what you selcted in the nVidia settings. I would try disabling that one in the BIOS to avoid confusion if you are not specifically using that one as a second monitor.

[jlan5031jlan5031]

ZachariasX,

Thanks for your quick response and suggestions. I took a look at your information about moving my steam selection. It seems daunting and I have to study it. As for the  the CPU BIOS, I haven't the slightest idea where and how. My son is coming over this weekend, so he can help me. He's the  computer genius in the family.

Thanks again, and I'll let you know the results.

[Nadelbaum]

I made a quick search with Google. At least some Dell models have had issues with BIOS which results in the integrated GPU being used instead of a GPU card (like Nvidia). If this is the case then I suggest, as ZachariasX also said, to update the BIOS and update all other drivers (Windows) on the computer to the very latest ones, including the Nvidia driver. If this doesn't help then try disabling the integrated GPU in BIOS so that the computer is not even trying to use it. Maybe this a task for your son for the weekend. 

 

Good luck, hope you can resolve it!

[jlan5031jlan5031]

Thanks for your information. I'll (my son) will give it a try.

One thing bothers me. In addition to IL2, I also have, and use Cliffs of Dover, the original IL2, Rise of Flight, XPlane 11, and DCS. They all work perfectly. Shouldn't they also be effected?

I appreciate the efforts to help of both you and ZachariasX

SOLVED!

Nadelbaum and ZachariaX,

As you both suspected, I was using the CPU card rather than NVIDIA's. In my ignorance, at some point around the Sturmovik update, I had switched the monitor plug to the CPU port. Now all is well in the flight sim world.

My thanks, again, for your input.

Good that you were able to get things back to normal.

 

Performance wise, It is a good practice to separate the system HDD or better SSD disk that will contain Windows and system applications, from the one that will host the games and other applications. Your personal data too should not be on the system disk, I mean if you have two physically distinct disk which is the best built. If you have only one with different partitions then it won't make much of a difference. It is also better from data safety too. If you have only one disk then if you crash it all is gone. If you have two disks and the Win system crashes and you need to reinstall Windows then you can do it without touching your personal data that is on the other disk. I personally use three SSD disks, one for the system, one for software like games and various applications like photoshop etc. and the third one all my personal data, documents, photos etc.

Then but that is evidence regular backups on external HDD or SSD.

I posted the following in the general discussion section in the thread regarding the latest update. Unfortunately a couple of boys got the thread locked due to their little “B” session so I guess nobody will be able to comment so I moved my post on the impact of the update here in case anyone else is having such issues or have any thoughts on it. 
 

Generally I like the improvements from the last update but performance in vr appears to be significantly worse at least for me. While not top of the line my system is quite good and should not be struggling as much as it is. I have had to back off several graphic settings to regain the lost performance but even doing so hasn’t fully restored how the game ran before. Being around ground units and cities seems to have more negative impact than it did before the update. I realize the devs said there could be performance reduction with the new sky but whatever benefits the new sky offers for me anyway, it wasn’t worth the loss of performance.

Have you ran any profiling app to see if the degradation is GPU or CPU related?

What HMD are you running? I assume you've already tried the obvious HAGS (hardware accelerated GPU scheduling) toggling and all that.

Edited April 11, 2022 by Firdimigdi

[TheSNAFU]

The cpu is running at no more than 40-50% usage under a high il2 load. My 3080 however is running at 93-99% load at the same time the cpu is barely being  taxed. I don’t know why the gpu is being taxed so heavily. Temps on the cpu are 55 under load and the gpu is no higher than 73. Frame times are between 9-11 ms under load. My HMD is the G2v2
 

No idea what all this means.

Can you share the [KEY = graphics] section from your startup.cfg and if you are using FSR mod its settings as well?

[TheSNAFU]

Here is the section from the startup. I've had to reduce some of it to regain performance but it still doesnt run like it did pre update. Prior to the update, I was able to run 90fps very consistently but now it drops into the 70-80's when things get busy around cities and airfields particularly. It then bounces from there back to 90 causing a lot of stutter. Once I get away from the cities and AF's it runs pretty steady at 90fps with just occasional drops to 87, 88 then back to 90fps

I had FPS and slow down issues after the last update. I found "Map scenery distance" in the Game settings was set to infinite which I'm pretty sure I didn't have previously. Setting back to a smaller distance solved my issues.

[TheSNAFU]

I reduced map scenery from 50 pre update to 20 as part of the changes I made to try and offset whatever has effected performance post update.
