flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Massive (!!) FPS drops. Is this arma 3 oder epochmod related? Server FPS are up but client fps is horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbawol Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Depending on how many vehicles you have on your server the cause maybe the lack of our vehicle simulation handler as it increases client fps at the cost of server fps and load. This system was disabled so we can test how the Arma 3 netcode has changed with recent patches. This was also to investigate the odd reports of vehicles blowing up as we suspect a bug with the engine regarding vehicle simulation. Please note that if you have a server full of players and most vehicles are simulated this system may just cause extra overhead but providing your not having server fps issues then try by re-enabling the vehicle simulation handler as mentioned in the changelogs: [Changed] Disabled Vehicle Simulation Handler by default as it does not seem to be needed anymore. re-enable vehicle simulation handler with simulationHandler = true in epochconfig.hpp. Scorpi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 If i will put that to "true" it will blow up vehicles again? Thanks VBawol. As is said: My FPS and CPS of the server are totally smooth. 47 during all the three hours. Thanks for your time answering this thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper179 Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Well since im banned from mells house teamspeak for some damn reason i have tried with both enabled and disabled it is running like trash with the new 0.3.0.4 i have reverted back to the 0.3.0.3 version with the arma 1.48 updated running and no issues even with the 1.48 update so there is something else wrong awol and tell axle that was very rude of him to do what he did.

flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 WHAT? 90% CPU load on server with 20 players? Before it was like 35% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrey Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 WHAT? 90% CPU load on server with 20 players? Before it was like 35% this is good! also sim = true worked! Lesson is reading thoroughly! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 this is good! also sim = true worked! Lesson is reading thoroughly! Mike So you think the sim = true will save 50% of performance? Can't imagine but i will try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 vehicle simulation = true is a LITTLE better but not the clue for the massiv cpu load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 21 player = 80% cpu load with simulation true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrey Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 21 player = 80% cpu load with simulation true Dude high CPU is good! it mean you are getting the most from your CPU for CPS and FPS. It will not likely max out your CPU unless you have local HC or local missions running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySanchez Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 I agree that the initial server FPS drop is not there after enabling this option.Thanks Awol for your prompt response.However we are getting some other errors and such.Check my post for a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flow0815 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 So i understand you right? It is good that server has CPU load from 93% with 23 players? So there is no problem with lets say 23 players more? FPS and CPS are great at allt he time. I had no server FPS drops. The CLIENT FPS are bad.

Dusk Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 OK.... interesting development for us. We decided to wait until Epoch has launched their update before uploading the Arma 3 1.48 onto the server. When we loaded both up the FPS went through the floor. 7 fps for all that logged in. So we rolled back to 0.3.0.3 leaving the Arma update in place. Now only admins have steady low (5 to 20 for those who usually have 30-60) FPS and players have, for the most part, an acceptable FPS but with major drops seemingly randomly. I assume the above fix won't help if we've rolled back to 0.3.0.3? We're going to be having a look at it again in the morning. But I think there's multiple issues going on here. For those that are getting the FPS drops, are you running infistar as we are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennis_stk Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 We got FPS Drops with and without Infistar. We are runing 0.3.0.3 (0.3.0.4 is not playable) at this moment and when a player is nearly some buildingparts the FPS goes straight down. We disabled all scripts and it doesnt goes better. We think its a problem with Arma 1.48 and 0.3.0.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prue420 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I think it has something to do with atlis because my cherno runs perfect. But atlis is screwed i even started fresh and it still happens my guy turns part invisible and i go from 60 fps to 8 something is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennis_stk Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 We try it this night. 1.48 - 0.3.0.4 not playable. Grafik Bugs. 1.48 - 0.3.0.3 not playable. Grafik Bugs. 1.46 . 0.3.0.3 working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC_Robio Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Running Vanilla Epoch.. No problems. Adding scripts, and addons I seen FPS problems. I blame the addons and scripts. Vanilla Epoch runs fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korwiin Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Upgraded my vanilla arma3/epoch server, default EpochAH (no infinistar), same high FPS server and client side as before. Removed all original files, and used new install files, then used diff tools to re-apply my settings. Had to add a line to BE filters to accommodate opening doors.

flow0815 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I did also only use the new files and updated my settings but after that updates the performance is definitive not that good than before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Interesting. I have a identical script setup on Altis, Cherna and Bornholm. Altis and Cherna running fine (with and without Infistar). On Bornholm I have very low client FPS and the A3 Client crashs. Forcing the simulation handler on, the client FPS are OK. However, It still crashs. Even with simulation handler enables teh FPS go down. I think this is the normal known "Bornholm FPS Problem". Removing Infistar stop the client crashs, however I don't think Infistar is the cause, cause it is running fine on the other 2 servers. I just wonder why my setup crash's on Bornholm, while running fine on Altis and Cherna. But I don't have time to investigate at the moment. This bug is so strange, cause it seems to be related to the viewing angle... This video was taken without Infistar and without epoch AH. Enabled Force Simulation. Client and Server FPS readable in the bottom line. BR Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
