Re: VS NG performance failures

Do I need to launch something before launching VSNG? Still did not notice a difference

Re: VS NG performance failures

That is great it worked for you, Robert! When installing the SDK, did you install any of the addons in the installer?

Do me a favour and load into VSNG with Kyle Hudak's Titanic and tell me what your FPS are

Still confused. Put the D3d9 dll into the VSNG folder and still am not noticing any difference. What am I missing?

Which file do I download on the Vulkan site and where do I extract them too? Do I need to run anything?

Re: VS NG performance failures

CPU AMD Ryzen 7800X3D RAM 32GB @ 5600MHz GPU NVIDIA RTX4070 VSF There seems to be an FPS limit built into VSF, where a maximum of 125 fps is possible for me.

Re: VS NG performance failures

Hi! VSNG certainly has some limitations, at least in terms of refresh rate, and it's not just related to AMD CPUs. But to continue this conversation could you make a little test? I assume you still have both VSF and VSNG installed in your computer. Start on both a new situation with no ship and no ...

Re: VS NG performance failures

Since starting this thread, I have upgraded my PC further. I'm now running the simulator on a 4070Ti, 64GB of DDR5 RAM @6500MHZ and a Ryzen 7800x3D. That is pretty overkill and I'm getting extremely disappointing results with VSNG. Usually 20-30 FPS I'm now able to get 200FPS on ultra settings in Mi...

There is a utility which converts DirectX 9 calls to modern DirectX versions 11 and 12. It is called dgVoodoo2 and can be downloaded from http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2/.

Re: VS NG performance failures

I don't know though if this is what is actually causing my issue. I mean, it could be, however. Seeing that VSF in on DX9 as well and preforms perfectly, I think the issue is something else.

This is a BIG difference. I even tried disabling all of the nice extra features in VSNG, and the FPS remains awful. My PC should be more than capable of handling a program like this

Well, ironically enough I have found someone with a similar build and with an Intel CPU and it is indeed Papini himself! He is getting around 90 to 110 FPS (What I was getting in VSF) I mentioned to Ilan that It must be an issue with AMD CPU's however he says that: ''I'm using DirectX which does not...

Re: VS NG performance failures

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was just using this Titanic as an example. FPS across all models are significantly worse on VSNG than on VSF I'm running these tests in both programs on the same PC with several different models. I'm seeing a 50-60 FPS loss across the board with each test. I'd...

Re: VS NG performance failures

I'm using an AMD CPU. However, the Fps in VSF are totally fine for me and I can get up to 90fps with this model loaded in VSF. I'm only getting 20 in VSNG. Exact same model, graphics and situation loaded up

VS NG performance failures

I have purchased VSNG on Steam and there are some big problems with the performance. I'm getting 30 fps with the same ships that I would get 90 fps on VSF Can you please optimise the sim? I have an RTX 3070Ti and 64GB of RAM so I shouldn't be getting only 20 FPS. I ran the 64-bit mod as well but it ...

Hey, Robert.

Yes, I have tested it on two other machines and got similar results. Really hoping Ilan can get in touch and we can troubleshoot this.

Re: Virtual Sailor NG 9.9.6 is here

The thing is, I would get 180 FPS in VSF with a ship and now I'm not even getting 20 FPs with the same model in VSNG. I would love to see Ilan rewrite the program in either a newer version of Direct X, Vulkan, or even use something like Unreal engine would be awesome. It has so much potential. There...

The first two are essential. 1:Preformance fixes! (I'm getting 10-20fps with ships in VSNG I would get 200+fps with in VSF) I ha...

Where has Ilan gone? There are many ways we could support him. I have suggested quite a few, but he now seems to be inactive.
