- Setting LODs from modman probably? - Changing the affinity from task manager is that the right approach? and are there benefits from assigning a single core to LO? - I just witnessed that i am having higher FPS (a gain of about 10) with an 8x-16x AA, than 2x-4x that i used to set it at so far ... is that normal? - anyone knows maybe what the "run game (multi)" is about in Modman? - is there maybe a static mirrors mod ?

ok, installed FC 1.12b on second windows installation i have here, copied the lockon.exe from there and its ok.

In an attempt to set permament affinity settings for lockon.exe, did the stupiest thing, used a windows server imagecfg.exe tool without realising it alters the target .exe file itself :( ( i would had backed it up otherwise) Now starforce refuses to run the modified lockon.exe :( i dont want to reinstall 1.12b (or should it be 1.12? any of the patches updates the exe?) being afraid i will loose third party settings and stuff i implemented so far to FC :( any chance maybe somebody be as kind maybe and can send me an original 1.12b lockon.exe file? (or that wont work?) Thanks

- some info more on the process of tweaking the LODs? :) - what are the benefits of giving single core affinity to LO? :)

Your opinion / experience on this ... The system is a Q6600 @3Ghz, 2Gb DDR2 Ram 1066Mhz, 8800GTS 512, playing on 1024x768. With everything maxed out in the LO graphics control panel, what you think should be the expected framerate range? lets say the average FPS close to / over urban areas, and the minimum fps that i should see in the fps counter.

- i'd like to suggest one or two intermediate visibility range settings between high and "medium" .... ("high" severely kills my framerates and smoothness and medium is rediculously short both in terms of reality feel and spoting the target on time (shows up only in unrelastically very close range) - the full shadow bug would be nice to be fixed

any news? :D :P

for example with A-10, may come a new theater as well (may) its not exactly "what you already have" i dont think each release will be just a new aircraft model. The way ED models stuff means lot of work for every new aircraft (its not like lets say the TW planes that IF TW would be making extra planes for each game release they could charge it like $5-10 each or not at all, and they charge only every whole new title (based on same engine and technology though) with terrains, etc The amount of work each ED aircraft addition (that i hope wont be just about the aircraft but other things related to each aircraft) requires can maybe justify almost as a new package "release" each time So is this indeed the official DCS stand?

I have the 3pro and i havent been using it for ages (nor playing in general bouhouhou ...) and i also have my 6dof activation code but haven't tested it yet. I was wondering, does 6dof work with just three NP reflective stickers dots placed lets say on a hat? judging from the looks of the clip and clip pro, i was thinking of just adding two NP reflective dots on my NP hat above its central reflective spot instead of getting the odd looking clip (i dont like it one bit) nor the clip pro (i hate that its working with a wire) Thanks

whats the situation with black shark and multiple cores?

Having BlackShark installed is necessary to buy/run later DCS modules? or could they be working as stand alone installations as well? Thank you

people keeping in touch with the project please give us a heads up upon release :D

which mod are these screens from?

Something i did some months ago the last time i played/messed with lockon caused the A-10 gun to fire smokeless. Any ideas where should i look and how to fix this? (effects are set to high)

From what i am told there the progress is on steady pace and it will be ready soon enough. I guess it replaces whatever you want it to replace. I dont see any reason why Typhoon should be carrier related, probably its just a matter of slot preference :)

if theres going to be a 1.13 then DEFINITELY .... as other maybe ,possibly, hopefully improvements utilizing current hardware and dx9 capabilities for smoother and faster framerates ...

i think i am obsessed with this issue :P

tried the forced sm 1.x here too with nvidia. no change :(

:( i am sure theres some solution. it would had come more easily from the ED side but, anyways .... now that we have all the horsepower to run the eyecandy , eyecandy is incompatible lol

ok post results asap :)

riva tuner can force 1.x models we can try that and see what we get

what exactly is this sentinal lock down issue ? thank you

What are the impressions in forums about the 174.20 in general? Did you fully uninstall your previous drivers?

Looks cool indeed. Is this high res runway textures download in lockonfiles?

are the runway textures in this screenshot the stock ones or third party?
