We have been running 30+ MP Events in 4.34 and 4.35 without major issues. And stability increased with every update
Thats remarkable news to me.
Whats uour setup and reqs? What server and clientsetting etc

Thank you.
My âfeelingâ was just grounded in the history of 4.32 and 50+ online MP. What do I know- almost nothing accept that I really miss the epic MP in Falcon.
You do what you do guys and IÂŽl hope for the best. Again; Insane optimizations Fps-wise in U1.
All else in Falcon you arldy know is far beyond awesome!
As this is a technical part of the forum; IÂŽl add a techadvise: If struggling with low Fps: Untick all Shadows.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Whoever did opts to U1 is a God and deserves a place in devs hall of fame!
Shadows off and the fps is 100+ in Mav TE tgp and mav displays on. Didnt think those days could ever come back. I have a âfeelingâ Fps and stability MP is correlated, so. Hopefully we can do large scale MP events in the future.
@A.S:
FPS improvement on âcockpit shadowsâ (it takes away too muuuch fps⊠regardless older or latest high end systems - we tried in Benchmark_TE)
Actually it is now merged with Shadow mapping and takes/gives 30+ fps if checked. That is what I was refering too in another post about eyecandy. You devs do what you do, and I am humbly grateful, But if I would use my 2 cents its about eyecandy vs Performance.
Cheers!
100 procent focus on performance. Make more configurable between Eyecandy and practicality. If this sim is used proporly, noone is going to see the difference between 2048 tex or 1024. There is another sim for the eyejockeys
Hey Guys!
Insane amount of work on the sim. Gratz to all. 4.35
As the devs have combined the former âFocus Shadowsâ and âCockpit shadowsâ into - Shadow mapping and its still broken. uncheck and behold.
Please devs, give us back the âFocus shadowâ option that create the shadows of the aircraft only, to uncheck for major fps gain as always have been in Bms.
Blue skies babys!
/Jaws
Obviously, the guy is behind somewhere⊠. Just pure frustration output. Yes its bad manners. Its not a great initial contact with a community, BUT you guys dont have to jump in all 100 of you in a tjo tjo train beating on it. Abit childish of you infact and also lowering the standards to hes lvl abit. As in - Dont argue with a âŠ
Cheers all!
And as always insane sim and a new awesome update FOR FREE!
Falcon lover!
Anyone looking for higher FPS in Falcon should turn off âFocus shadowsâ that is on default, in the configuration. Its a pig.
Water Enviroment Mapping- uncheck.
Reduce particle system is a good check also.
Measure Fps in clean TE. I get 130 fps over water in clean TE. System: 3770 I7, 1070gtx and SSD. The rest is mainly cpu - gpu issues.
software as GPU-Z running with the tab âsensorsâ open on your second monitor (if you have it) and youÂŽl see that your GPU is almost idling in Falcon even with FPS at 25-30. IÂŽv tried Nvidias config to Maximum performance on the power config, but it doesnt seem to help. I think this is mainly beacause of a bottleneck CPU- GPU as the calcs need to be run before sneding it to GPU? My tiny understanding.
Maybe a check at the particle sys, skins, etc etc. I think the campaign are mainly what sets the limit, but implementing more and more âeye-candyâ in a sim that has an engine from the dark ages is like asking a stone to fly.
I love flying Falcon because its a great, great simulator. It works. It works in MP. It works with cheap systems.
For the guys that love to be able to read the labels on the slammer, (Eyecandy) there are homemade skins and such to download and use; BY CHOICE.
Keep it as clean as possible please.
Cheers!
Focus shadows m8ÂŽs is the killer. Uncheck focus shadows, shadows on smoke and water enviroment mapping. Enjoy!
Yes, I use racing pedals, the clutch and throttle. Works perfect.
How do you get that to work? When I try my setup, it only works with brake/throttle. Would use it if it would work with clutch/throttle. My clutch is picked up by Falcon in a way not useable as its moving rudder of center in 0 input.
actually the new flares are invisible for the network
the BW consumption is the same with or without flares (not measurable)
the parts of the graph where BW is low (below 2800) is actually Not in game
Thats a pic in my taste. Thats eyecandy
Hi!
I took the fps quest, down the rabbit hole, I found that Focus shadow and water enviroment shadow had a - 20-25 fps effect. Now all is great. With 60+ in Campaign and TE/benchmark test.
This could ofc be a driver-issue on my system.
Good luck!
IÂŽv seen similar behavior and have an Nvidia-card. I also thought the setting âprefer maximum performanceâ would mend that, but no. I used a gpu-monitoring software âGPU-Zâ to see what was going on and it is indeed gpu-load that alters inconsistent but is not remedied by performance setting.
Findings:
Instant action - Feet wt: 125fps; GPU-load: 45%, CPU:21%
Instant action - Feet dry: 75fps; GPU-load: 30%, CPU:23%
EDIT: Tested FPS -quest Focus shadow and water enviroment shadow stalling the system=Driver issue perhaps
VIDEO-Memory remains after first 3d to second 3D: 500-700mb and stacks= Dont do that.
Very happy indeed!
Way more transparent to user. Tech docs, manual for the manuals etc. Coms, Awacs-calls, AIFF, Heat-seeking, tracers, etc etc etc: Absolutly stellar; Hard work. I read the techmanual swiftly and reflected on the work put in and almost lost senses. Thank you guys!
Holding 1 billion thumps on the mp.
Cheers!
Ps. Take a vacation and enjoy the fact you very activily make hundreds and hundreds of people happy every day, FOR FREE! .Ds
/Wallentin
YES
As re-entering 3D has an aprox. additional 500-700mb in memory use, leftover from previous 3D session.
Well guys! Its all good and I see what is going on here. There is nothing wrong with the mp-code. Ok. Great. Iâv been flying lots of campaign-mission with 15-20 peps. Nps. What would be interesting though is 50+peps. I would be happy as a newborn and would gladly push the like-Button on that vid on youtube showing that. Good luck boys!
With sincere respect and gratitude the all Falcon-lovers out there!
Cheers!
/Falcon forever
Bms specifically⊠ask Sidewinder. Hes talents escaping Pâs n Mâs is extraordinary.
Hey guys. I know way back with an early battle for balkans theater we experienced very low fps in Cockpit view and wow. That was temporarily mended by unchecking cockpit shadows and shadows (Cant remember the name) produced by the aircraft. Same as this, the fps went up dramatically with take-off.
Imho: To have less then 60 fps in a TE with no other units with a fairly decent comp, something is off.
I got an i7, 1070, 16g ram and in the most intense senarios in a campaign I can see fps at 55.
Everything maxed out exept rain rings. Then again I run a stock install. Cant remember when I last saw my own Aircraft from an outside view.
Cheers!
