have you tried DcsMax, a free utility that enables multicore support for balckshark.
Im running 1920 x 1200 all maxed out on vista Is there a link to DcsMax? Aviar

Dashavingo, what are your system specs and which operating system are you running?
The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

Im running 1920 x 1200 all maxed out on vista Looks like the program just shortcuts the process of setting affinity for each core rather than enabling actual multi threading. Still a useful utility though.

"Looks like the program just shortcuts the process of setting affinity for each core rather than enabling actual multi threading."
If this is true, then DcsMax is not really needed for this particular issue, correct? However, just what core setting(s) are best for BS?
For instance, I have a Core 2 Duo. What would I need to do so that BS takes full advantage of my processor?

Looks like the program just shortcuts the process of setting affinity for each core rather than enabling actual multi threading. Still a useful utility though. Of course it doesn't enable multithreading, multithreading can not be enabled and disabled at will, a program is either multithreaded or it isn't. And DCS (as any game) is multithreaded. Setting the affinity is all that's needed.

Ok, so how does one set the affinity?

So DCSMax speeds up BS considerably? I didn't realise it wasn't taking advantage of the 2 cores in my Core2Duo.

IIRC, depends on if you have Vista.
Vista = yes XP = no

I think you can still get minor increases with XP but not major increases like with Vista. Although I have yet to try out the utility on my XP based machine.
I've got a bad feeling about this.....
