Salut

after reading and trying many things it seems that the War is slowing the game down.
It was a nice idea to have the whole sector/front active but is it realy needed?
Perhaps a lighter version with a bit less objects etc may be an option.

danke

You have in Workshop options to scale things down. Density of scenery etc. That also reduces action at the front.

What is your hardware specification?

No, that is a pretty weak cpu. Some of the old socket 775 intel dual cores come in faster than that.

The GPU is lower than recommendations too. We can't do a light version with hardly any objects and poor terrain/scenery and no flights - totally against what WOFF is about so no point, but you could stick to QC more with only a few aircraft in the sky for the moment until you get to upgrade your PC to a decent recommended system so you can fly campaign more.

this all makes no sense. Even Clod runs better than this.

My CPU and GPU temps here are the lowest of my flight sims. None of my hardware is running at full power or even has too. Using the d8d9 thingy even lowers the strain on my GPU.
Anyway, I dont suppose any aircraft files/folders could be moved from Woff to OFF by any chance?

Well it may make no sense to you but the fact is your PC is borderline for what WOFF achieves in real time in game - this is a 2013/2014 release and the requirements are on our website.

Your PC CPU really does need upgrading for WOFF campaign play.

Try turning everything down in workshops and see how you go but yep thats the way it is.

This game is really processor intensive in campaign missions, due to so much going on. It makes for a great sim environment but you'll need to lower some stuff if your individual processor cores aren't pretty beefy.

The base CFS3 engine only runs on one core so it doesn't matter if you have three extras. I suggest shutting down all the extra processes you can, or moving their affinities to one of the latter CPU cores to lessen the workload on CPU0 (where WOFF runs).


(For Tech Reference)
