    Hey guys this is the next installment of our Operation Burning Sands campaign, where we bring the fictional nations and factions of the old Strike Fighters series of flight simulators to life within ‪@EagleDynamicsTV‬ 's DCS World!
    In this mission the 6th Royal Armored Division of the Royal Dhimar Army is back on the offensive to retake portions of the Palmyra Oil Fields and set up for the eventual recapture of the city of Palmyra and its associated Airfield!
    This mission was absolutely record breaking for us with nearly 1200 ground units and 50 players engaged in a massive ground battle in and around the main highway between the Sharqiyah Mine complex and Palmyra on the DCS Syria Map.
    This mission and the massive number of units would have never been possible without the power servers over at Fox 3 Managed Solutions. This huge mission size could have only been dreamed about a few years ago and really shows off some of the awesome improvements to DCS Multiplayer made under the hood by Eagle Dynamics.

    Holy cow guys, I cannot believe that a mission with 1200 separate AI units combined with 50 human players is even possible in DCS now! I believe it really speaks to the awesome servers from Fox 3 Managed Solutions and all the improvements made to DCS Multiplayer by Eagle Dynamics under the hood, a few years ago I would have told you this was impossible!

    @Spudknocker:
    As a missionbuilder I ask myself, did you "late activate" some AI units, which were unspawned until human players were in range
    OR
    were the AI units all from the beginning activated?
    AND:
    Did you had problems with SRS and this 50 players?

  • @jayemm6840
    @jayemm6840 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Thanks for the video. I've done many tests with 2.7 regarding unit count. This really wasn't possible without severely affecting frame rates for users. Sometimes a 50% or more impact. I am still skeptical that 2.8 raised the bar so much that you could have that many units on the map without effect. Would you consider at any point showing what effect, by benchmark, your mission would have with different unit counts?

    • @Spudknocker
      @Spudknocker  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I can try! I dont know how you were placing units or what type you were placing, or if that even has an impact. On my home PC I had a significantly reduced frame rate BUT with the mission on the dedicated server (Fox 3's most powerful server, youd have to ask Luck for exact specs) my framerate was normal, because all of the AI computations are offloaded to the server. Or at least thats my educated guess, the exact number of units was like 1185ish and the moment it went over 1200 units by even one vehicle he framerate tanked

    • @jayemm6840
      @jayemm6840 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Spudknocker I also have fox3 as a provider. In my tests there weren't much different client FPS than my PC hosted frame rates. What I had to do was to late active units in stages to eliminate the lower frame rates. Or there are possibilities that the maps are also affecting the base frame rates. Ultimately our VR guys would have the most issues or folks with lower spec systems. Again, this is probably all a mute point if multithreading activates soon...

    Are there any handheld surface to air missile that you can add to your scenario?

    • @Spudknocker
      @Spudknocker  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I don’t usually put MANPADS in my missions, it’s kinda a realism vs gameplay thing really, because most DCS players don’t have amazing Situational Awareness due to the game’s inherent limitations, it wouldn’t be very fun for everyone to just be killed right away by unseen manpads and would make for a pretty lame video.

    Well if the Tomcat can do a Thousand Plus Mile Radius CAP above the Carrier Group - Be my guest :) Otherwise you better keep the Carriers outta Range of the Russian Hypersonic Anti Ship Cruise Missiles. Oh, did I mention Mach 12+ Missiles? How fast was the Phoenix again? Mach3+ right? How about you get those Carriers to a Safe Place. Maybe in the California Bay Area. Oh wait, the Russkies now have those Missiles on their Subs too... Well hmmm... How about retiring your useless Carriers (except when you attack 3rd World Backalleys) now? Woopsiedaisy, I just went full Putin Puppet, didn't I? :) No worries, this will get picked up and deleted by the CIA/NSA/Democrats anyway...
