@ wake turbulence I did a quick and dirty test in the ME. 60-70 FA-18 Hornets in close formation and 2 hight level to each other: - only AI lowest drop 31 fps - 1 FA-18 set as client -> player control wake turbulence off -> flying behind the other 18's fps drops to low 30s - 1 FA-18 set as client -> player control wake turbulence on -> flying behind the other 18's fps drops to 9-12 fps Settings in Sig, latest OB and driver installed. Edit: 2D not VR
-
Yeah, the only "bummer". FPS is worse compared to other modules, not that much of a problem in 2D for me but in VR noticeable. Could you two post your PC specs and DCS settings? I can use the AG radar without any significant fps loss. I can see a big fps loss if i do the light test, from the 80s to the 40s in 2D, didn't tried it in VR yet.

+1 This is an abolutely awesome module, fun to fly and fight in it :thumbup: First i was undecided about the JF-17 but i'm so glad i bought it! And an incredible dedicated dev team :beer:

Bump The UI slider works like a charm now, thank you for the quick fix! :thumbup: The little problem with only one song still persists: - 1 .ogg sound file - 1 .sdef file - special options, slider set to 1 -> The DPlayer playes that 1 song and then stops(regardless mode C or X) if i put 2 or more .ogg + .sdef files in their corresponding folders and set the special options #slider to the correct number -> DPlayer loops the playback (for example track 1of3, 2of3, 3of3, 1of3....

Vulkan support should be a top priority now.
unknown replied to grammaton_feather's topic in Chit-Chat
We have a Vulkan API thread in the Chit-Chat section of the forum. Here 2 quotes from my experience with Vulkan and the other Sim. I know, its comparing apples and oranges because of the change from OpenGL to Vulkan and not DirectX11 but for me: There is always hope that DCS will profit from the change to Vulkan but in the end all we can do is sit and wait and see for ourselfs when it arrives. -
That is the next thing shaHeen-1 will be asking for R73/Aim-9x like SRM for the JF-17.... Oh and while we're at it, why not strap a second engine to the airplane? I mean other airplanes also have two engines! I can't use the full potential of jeff if i have only one engine, it would have so much more thrust! And a second pair of wings, imagine all the new weapon stations, wow i could really kick some asses with that! And the Death Star laser beam and a "i win button"..... it could be enabled/disabled in the ME for the people who don't like it. :doh::doh::music_whistling: Sorry for that sarcasm post but i really hope Deka is not ruining this great module by implementing fictional stuff. If the RL JF-17 is getting a HMD with Block x and Deka decides to upgrade our Jeff to that Block it would be fine but just implementing it because someone wants it to win in DCS airquake battles? No, please.

You're sure about that? Maybe they edited it but for me it reads: "From April 19th to May 18th"

If you start cold and dark you have to connect your Oxygen tube with the connector in the cockpit and also open the valve. There is a oxygen pressure gauge too. Attached pic is taken from Chucks IF-17 guide. I don't know/didn't try how it's implemented by deka but i guess it's the default ED implementation and that does not simulate sitting in the cockpit without your oxygen mask, so even in the F-18 cockpit open you will wear your mask and suffer from Hypoxia without your Oxygen supply enabled, thats how they implemented it. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=252871&highlight=hypoxia You can see your oxygen decreasing on the pressure gauge over your flight time, but i never was long enough into the air to run out of it(low yes but not out).

I'm using the same(? version 3) throttle, the F-18 also uses the radar elevation axis for TGP zoom.
-
The Radar elevation Axis is used for zoom(or FOV like L0op8ack said above) by default. As soon as you have assigned it for the elevation axis it is also used to zoom the TGP. I think your axis(physical on the HOTAS) does produce some false signals(jitter) and that triggers the constant re-focosing for you.
-
SP for me, it's very rare i'm on MP
-
Do you have the Radar elevation mapped to an axis? I do have it mapped and use it to zoom the TGP( additinally to near/wide) as long as i move that axis i get a re-focus but as soon as i stop moving that sxis(zoom level i want) it stops re-focusing and i have a clear picture, tested right now in latest OB.
-
Did you forget to set the fuze by any chance? I forget this sometimes and am wondering why i missed my target. I tried them right now and had no problems hitting my targets, deadly as always i would say.

FPS in single digits after today's update
unknown replied to FoxTrotAlpha691's topic in Bugs and Problems

But isn't anybody going to comment last Wags' mini-update?
unknown replied to amalahama's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
But it's "only" the Real Beam Ground Map Mode, not all the AG modes. And the JF-17 is using the ED Radar API for quite a while now(MAP/GMT/SEA...). So why not? -
Modules announced for EA but not yet released into EA are offered with a pre-purchase discount. Thats why many buy EA modules, they don't pay 80$ but 65 or so. If you own the F-18 you get also an extra discount ontop of the pre-purchase discount for the supercarrier and you can even spend ED miles on it. So pre-purchase+Hornet-discount(=50% off)+ED miles = very cheap module

You mean like they did a week before the patch/feature went live? With pictures and where to find detailed info for setup..... :music_whistling: Post: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4256460&postcount=5 Mini Update Thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=262371

The difference is ED is still here, the Dev of your Hawk run away with your money and refused to give ED the source/required material to complete the mess they left behind after running away. So, get over it or "hunt" the former Dev down and annoy them with your Hawk.

Just wondering when we're going to see A-G radar?
unknown replied to Capn kamikaze's topic in DCS 2.9
Have a look into the "Mini Updates" threads by Wags. Last postings 03-31-2020 each: Hornet: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4266842&postcount=183 Viper: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4266853&postcount=40 So it looks like "soon" for the Hornet and not so soon for the Viper. -
They released the "Early Access Scheduled Release: 15 April 2020" Trailer on 26.03.2020....
-
Because that was the scheduled EA release date by ED two weeks ago.

Interesting how different the experiences can be
