I did give it a try and as an 1915/16 player; woow that period it is demanding voor your PC. As you can see the frametime graph on the right corner is peaking like hell and does even reach 60ms [=below 20FPS] While I never did see the capped 57FPS in the OSD. Normally I always fly 17.5ms [=57FPS] straight line in the afterburner OSD.
My settings are regional air activity --> highest settings, same max to the Encounters, woods/forest and the other hand was set to low. I will give it a for try regional air activity --> very low and Encounters --> historic, because I think it is also the amount of plane activity that is causing the drop. The setting for nVidia and ingame adjustments can be see in the shimmer trees topic.
The flight btw was immerse, out of ammo, engine was going out and plane was shot to pieces, luckily I could make an emergency landing while I did hit two trees, [btw trees without any shimmer
]
edit: I using lots of mods, like the triangle mod for high end machines V1.5, maybe I should go going for the medium V1.5?
