Falcon bms.cfg moddified to earn fps
-
Ok, hello to all community again, some time ago i began a thread about the U2, i had problems with my fps, the U1 runs smoothly, but U2 and U3 ruined my fps
Inside the cockpit i had loss of fps, but outside it ran good, so i decide last night to seek inside the falconbms.cfg the problem, i disabled an option “set g_bExportRTTTextures” that is not available in config.exe, i tested again in the sim and Voalá! i earned among 20 and 25 fps, i shared this with my squad first to test, all of them reported more fps, ooookay, just edit the falconbms.cfg file located in: Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\User\Config and open it with some text editor or notepad, inside the file search for the next line: “set g_bExportRTTTextures” which is set to 1, so replace the ‘1’ with 0, that means disabled, okay now save and test it!!! you should earn some beautiful fps… -
This is known. Thanx anyway. Maybe now that is in a specific thread I should put it in my hotlist if it ain’t there already.
Should be mentioned though that guys using exportrtt should not disable it.sent from my mi5 using Tapatalk

What exactly is exportrtt?

What exactly is exportrtt?
See BMS-Manual page 243 for an explanation.
Impact on fps varies according to your hardware, with very little impact on many PCs. As always with Falcon you are advised to test to see what works best for you.

Copy. I’m out and about right now so will have to check the manual later.

I don’t think it is a good idea to encourage people to use your entire config file - by all means share the info, but your config and my config might be two very different things.
-
Exactly, but you can configure it again.

Must have missed this first time round. Any disadvantage if not using ext. displays?
Has made a massive difference for me (80 to 120fps) with the same view. Thanks.

You’re welcome

Your were right sebastian didn’t share all the info….

If its not listed or mentioned ?
I had a look what else was changed from default settings:- Pixel Lighting to Vertex, you lose many of the cool lighting effects, this has been discussed elsewhere.
- You have HDR Lighting turned off, again a major loss.
- Heat Haze is off, I love this one and would not chose to lose it.
It would have been better to disclose these changes.

Sorry Chris, but 80fp to 120fps, life changing, no. And yes I am a sarcastic barsted at times.
Chris you asked if there were any disadvantages, and I did spot one possible change in sebastion’s .cfg, again not disclosed.
- Control Surface Updates set to 1 every millisecond as apposed to the default 1 every 200ms
That’s possibly a significant addition to network traffic for a sim that is already struggling to keep people with problematic connection issues.
As Malc mentioned it wold have been better to list the changes.
Just saying……

why i set up control surface to 1? can you read the bms manual page 243?
-
As cloud 9 said deleted the link, no prob, at least i know that i help to my squad to run falcon faster.
No se les da contento con nada bola de rqlos. -
Has nothing to do with being happy. It’s just there were other things adjusted in it that other people would probably not want and could potentially cause problems.
Yes, the “set g_bExportRTTTextures” change did help and I’m sure there are a lot of people happy about that. I as well am glad you posted a solution that worked.
There’s a rule that is old and continues to this day that is about developing and the sharing of files: Don’t post up work to others to download that is going to unknowingly alter either their game/program files or system files. To many unintended consequences. Not to mention, it has the tendency to piss(upset) people off.

Page 240
g_nRemoteControlSurfacesInterval Time in milliseconds between control surface updates over multiplayer. Valid range 20-1000. Default is 200, 0 = disabled.
Not 1, “can you read the bms manual”

Thin Skinned ? there’s no need to be insulting.
I worked in a kitchen when I was young, it was hot.
