Hi I just tried using the 430 with the SU25T during a night mission. It seemed to randomly dim the HUD and interior lights along with the NS430 itself when open. Anyone else see something similar?

What map and type of vehicle? I'll try it and see how it looks here (been practising but with units in open areas).

I read the current FLIR update messed up the TV modes but haven't seen anything different. Supposedly damage doesn't show up on the TV sometimes but it has been for me. Are you zooming in?

Found a cockpit mod to solve this is anyone else has the same issue and is wondering.

The switches that control auto pilot and and PVI-800 are very bright when engaged. Is there a way to reduce that? There's a brightness knob there but it doesn't seem to change anything. Thanks

Thanks a lot, that was it. I tried deleting shaders first but that didn't help so not sure what's going on. On an AMD 6600XT.

Hi I'm experiencing seeing small black boxes flicker in the corners of some of the front cockpit dials. Mostly happens when pitching up or down. Anyone else come across this?

Impressed with the updates on the Mirage too. Need to give it some good attention soon.

Is there a way to get the carrier to load in earlier? I get the same thing. Stutter on the first attempt but fine after that (since it's loaded in). If the carrier could load fully further out we could have smoother fps during the actual touchdown. EDIT: realized there was an obvious solution to this. Just use external view on the carrier before landing to load it. I found that with both f12 (on deck) and f9 (above) I can get smooth landings now with no stutters. Only selecting one of those views either gave me a slight stutter still on landing or exiting the carrier on a go around, but with both it seems smooth either way. Previously I was having to edit the carrier deck to have less objects to reduce this stutter but using that trick it seems to be smooth even on the fully loaded versions.

Was going to post this too. Assetto Corsa has a mod for clouds that do the same exact thing (maybe using same algo). In that you can just select another cloud type realtime in game and it will re-render and fix it. Do your lines look like a box is around the cloud (with the lines defined on the edges?)

Hi, I tried loading this mission recently and upon getting to the cockpit screen the world was still blue and took about 3-4 seconds to finally fill in. Flying around after a while I had a few lock ups that crashed DCS. I then tried upping my pagefile to 16gb and set preload to 30. This still resulted in a crash when quitting the mission. I loaded the mission into the editor to look into it more and the editor had the same issue. The background map took 3-4 seconds to fill in. I tried deleting everything in the map to see if that would help. After doing so just zooming in and out caused it to lock up and crash. Syria is loaded on a SSD and so far none of the other missions there seem to have this issue. I created a fresh mission operating in the same area and it loads fine. Any ideas, is there some corruption maybe in mission file? Cheers

Would love to see this too.

I read the reason it's 12 is the die for the memory is locked to 6. So it needs to be either 6 or 12 so they went with 12 to get it above 6 (even if it doesn't use all of the 12).

Hi jonny415, For both your Harrier and F18 profile I had to set the .lua in export scripts to .4f for the Jettison knobs (id 236 and 404) to get them to work (otherwise they just went one click to the right) and then the text readout to 0.000, 0.1000 etc... Is this correct or was it supposed to work on the settings you already had? Cheers

I demoed this a few times but wasn't sure about it for some reason. Tried it again yesterday and bought it after an hour. Had a lot of fun learning it the whole day. Might end up being one of my favourite modules now.

In real life how far can the wire 'stretch'. I just made a hard landing and the F18 got all the way to the end of the ship before stopping. When I checked f2 I saw it had caught the wire (third) and it had stretched all the way to the end of the ship still attached to the hook.

M2000 has a similar issue.

Thank you. Was looking for a way to edit presets but didn't think to click there. Cheers

Where do we set that at? checked the weather section of the mission editor and the graphics settings but didn't see an option for it.

Are the runway spotlights supposed to be this bright? I noticed the same thing when flying the Huey, but as soon as I took off this bright effect went away and it looked more natural.

I have a similar issue with the Harrier, F-16 and C-101, and F-5. Problem is they don't show as install in the game so there's no way to deactivate them there. Can I delete the folders?

Fixed for me on the very latest update. Only checked in F18 so far. Didn't have to do anything other than update.

Noticed FPS was a little higher and wondered why. Then I saw the clouds looked different so maybe that had something to do with it.

Is that camera view via Mouse in the Axis menu? I tried removing both the general and aircraft specific assignments and it made no difference (still was active). Invert doesn't work either.

Sorry don't know any details just saw it mentioned in the promo post.
