Sure, hiding objects (literally, using hideObject, which is what that mod does) might help, but not a lot. Graphically, A3 is no big deal. Those objects (including AI units) are still simulated, and that's where the real performance issues are. Using native dynamic simulation or a caching mod like ALiVE takes some time and skill to set up well, but can definitely provide a real benefit. Excuse my French here, but f*** I completely forgot about ALiVE, appreciate that heads up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mods run offline: CBA_3 Voice Commands for AI System System specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (you should have seen this in the Imgur link I posted). GPU: AMD RX 6700 XT 12gb. RAM: 64gb Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2933MT/s. Board: Asus TUF Gaming x570-Plus (WiFi). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulEnd281 2 Posted July 27, 2023 21 hours ago, Gunter Severloh said: Online - So your issue is with online performance, so are you joining a public server, private server? - Whats the scenario being played on the server? (if its a life scenario then theres your problem). - How many players are playing at once? - Does the scenario require any mods, and what mods? - What's the server's location vs yours (whats your ping)? - What's your internet speed. Server type online: Private, password locked. Scenario: Section Practices with my unit (the game performs atrociously on a server system as well). Players: Can be about 16 players per squad, but generally no more then 32 players total due to the server's hardware. Mods as a requirement: Yes. The units own ModPack, along with a few 3rd party mods. Server location: Chicago, Illinois. My location: Australia with up to 399ms of ping. Internet speed: 100-150mb/s...... Yeah, its worse then hybrid coaxial, which is what it is now, and what it was previously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 4056 Posted July 27, 2023 imo this is your problem: Quote Server location: Chicago, Illinois. My location: Australia with up to 399ms of ping. But also depends how many mods in the mod pack and what they are too, AI mods will eat up the performance, server hardware makes a difference as well but location of the server should be close to home so to speak for you, at least half the distance of where its at. I have a friend in Australia that him and i had a realism unit back in 2017 and we had our own server, i had rented it from streamline servers the server was also same location as yours, but my friend had no issues with performance, we had some mods we used but not alot. We built our own missions, but again my specs at the time were not as good as yours back then, regardless him and i and the others were still getting at least over 60+ fps. So a suggestion would be to adjust the location of the server that depends were the majority of members are at, also reevaluate the mods your using, most especially AI mods, vcomai at the time tanked the server for us so we removed it. Also note, alot of AI in the game, and using alot of scripts not using the right functions for server use will kill the performance too, considering you have up to 32 players playing thats alot of people tapping in the performance. If you want to know if the server or mods are giving you the loss in fps then suggest doing tests with your server, choose a simple mission start with no mods, and add a mod and see whats lowering the fps, it could also be the server hardware itself, but the process of elimination or at least some research into the mods your using, functions etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cannot switch the server of the units location, as its members are American, as well as myself not owning it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulEnd281 2 Posted August 8, 2023 Well, about damn time. My apologies for all of that. I get real, if you will, angered if not given the correct info. So, now you have a screenshot of some of my systems specs, to answer the question of what are they essentially. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
