Leg2ion

No problems here - downloaded the beta yesterday with stable already previously installed. 'Stable' is 2.7.2; 'Beta' is 2.7.3. Think during the install I had a small window pop up asking if I wanted to copy modules across (or something along those lines) - to which I selected yes. All key bindings etc all good. Only thing that differs is my pilots logbook - which to me is no biggy as I only tend to use the beta to check out new features. Holy s**t - seriously??? Thought I was doing well with around 130mb/s?!

When you say 'had a target locked' - what with - the missile or TGP?

Apologies to all who appear offended - purely put a shout out for those who were interested. Started putting together a new PC after a few years out of the PC home build scene, unaware of the GPU issue, so was stuck needing one. Quite possibly one of the better companies I have ordered from, and if prepared to pick and choose can get some really good deals on other PC components. Look at alternative sellers - prices are up...!

Only one way to find out I guess - looking forward to your report...

Didn't think it was available until end 2021/early 2022 - just Microsoft seems to have gone overboard on its ad campaign??

Shame. Sorted my stuttering out on all maps. What settings do you have set in Nvidia control panel. Only change I have made is to set Power Management Mode to 'Prefer maximum performance'. I did a couple of other tweaks in my BIOS but cannot recall exact details - I think I enabled PBO, and CPU C states was disabled. Apologies as cannot see your hardware setup - but any BIOS or AMD Chipset updates available?

Similar used to happen to me in 2.5.6. If with a wingman lined up on the runway - (A10C2, Enemy Within Campaign), as soon as I started rolling he would hammer past me with an acceleration of a startled jackrabbit normally taking out my right wingtip.

Out of curiosity what are your advanced power settings set to? I had a lot of stuttering issues which were resolved by selecting either high or extreme power plan instead of the 'stock' balanced.

Tried for 3 days!!! ONE successful (as I would call it!) takeoff!!! Albeit I eventually got a straight acceleration across the grass after veering left off the tarmac, wrestled the right wing back down level then managed to hit a molehill that launched me skywards, accelerated through a pretty hairy hard left hand bank into S&L flight - yeah - I'll take that one! Help!

Have you checked 'Additional Power Settings' are set to High/Extreme and not Balanced?

Is this the same issue? OP states 'goes back to main menu'? Just tried the same - Me109, Channel Map, Create Fast Mission - 'Generating' bar appears - does not accomplish any percentage, then drops the bar and reports error message “getMissionNode Nodeslds is empty” where the mission description would be in the advanced mission generation window.

Hi @lee1hy - awesome job. Will this work in 2.7?

Have you tried the Asus AI Suite, which I believe will conservatively automate the overclocking process...

No problems on my setup with same pedals. Max AUW, brakes on, throttle to max, brakes off, rolling and lift all within reasonable runway thresholds.

Just built a new system with a 5600x AMD CPU, 3070 GPU and 32 GB Ram. DCS on SSD. No Vsync, everything at high/Ultra, and all Nvidia control panel settings at default - normally get 80 - 120 FPS.

Buy a large (2TB) SATA SSD - something like a Samsung 870 EVO 2TB 2.5" SATA III SSD and move/install your sims to that - don't think you will notice any major differences.

If of any use to anyone UK based looking for a new GPU - appears CCL Computing has had a large drop of GPUs - both AMD and Nvidia. Hopefully not breaking any rules putting the word out.

Yep - just got back into it this year after playing it years ago when it was in its infancy, and then only dabbling over the last few years - never finding the time to learn an aircraft fully apart from the original Black Shark. Still have the disc version of Black Shark plus hard copy manual!

If you have a 'spare' drive you should be able to copy and paste your DCS folder from your C drive to another. Your Saved Game/DCS folder would remain on the C Drive, but the relationships between the two folders should stay the same. Running DCS on a dedicated SSD for ease of management, with a backup of the Saved Game folder on the SSD to be on the safeside.

Built a new system 2 months ago and used a 5600X, coupled with a Asus X570-F MoBo, 32gb RAM and a MSI 3070 GPU. After a bit of tweaking - mainly power settings rather than Nvidia or DCS - everything cranked up and all is smooth - hitting between 80 - 120 FPS - though using head tracking as opposed to VR - so not sure how that translates? Have always used AMD CPUs over Intel - just seem more resilient.

Done. With nvidia GPU.

Nope - not that I can think of - fixed range. Not sure what you mean by 'locks to the target late'? Never had any problems - once a target is locked by the TGP and set as SPI, then all other sensors slaved should be a simple case of selecting Mav as SOI, TMS up and release. Maybe create a simple training mission with a couple of targets and no SAM involvement to get the process nailed and see what is achievable?

Look here: Some activation problems (digitalcombatsimulator.com) You no longer need to de-activate/re-activate. One additional comment - do not use 'Instant Action' to test/tweak settings - always create a mission - that way you can start in the same position every time so can see what effects the changes you are making are having in game against the same conditions/scenery etc.

Think you need to acknowledge the message and 'Wilco' on the TAD - a lot of which I normally forget to do. Though saying that I have a practice mission set up with 2 separate JTACS - one spotting some tanks and the other spotting a mixture of BMPs and infantry. The JTAC spotting the tanks briefs no mark and an X does not appear, whereas the JTAC spotting the BMP/Inf shows a red X. The 'tank' JTAC is further away from his target than the other one - so not sure whether it is range orientated (danger close) from JTAC to target?

Oh please no! More concerned with impact area, targets, current threat assessment to name but a few (and FPS) rather than watch some bubbles in a ball!
