    This. Also keep in mind, that the apparent size of the real moon varies quite a lot depending on your location and the time of month/year. (Almost 15%)

    Actually ED is actively developing the ME (albeit with unknown priority). The last "feature"-update wasn't too long ago iirc.

    I'm not quite sure if a bug, a feature or a wrong understanding on my side. When I tune in a TACAN/VOR or ILS and am out of range of the tuned transmitter, shouldn't I hear static noise? Or are the radios in the F-16 advanced enough to silence the static when they don't receive a strong enough carrier? (For context - the map was SA)
  4. Hiob
    That really depends on how good the software support turns out. I spend a lot more than that on a Rhino and am very happy. Generally speaking, FFB adds a lot to flight simming (similar to FFB wheels for drive sims).

    Isn’t the Moza supposed to be compatible with Virpil/TM grips? Then their extensions should work all the same, no? Or is the Moza grip system proprietary and I totally confused something?

    If you referring to the end of summer sale trailer, that isn‘t „we will rock you“ but „smoke on the water“ by deep purple

    I didn‘t know about the realism of things. Maybe my expectations where wrong. It‘s just that I was specifically cleared for runway 17, which I could barely see, while 16 was lit up like a christmas tree…
  8. Hiob
    I get your idea. I was going for the possibility that MT doesn’t necessarily run worse than ST when the underlaying issue is found. Unless you have really specific or old hardware that is. And it could be worth investigating since eventually ST won’t be an option anymore.
  9. Hiob
    What are your hardware specs? CPU, GPU and RAM? I assume MT is rather revealing issues than necessarily causing them.

    The approach lights? There are some lights on all night yes, but when you call in for landing they properly light up a specific runway for approach. Maybe I can take a screenshot later.

    It‘s usually hot temps that affect the performance negativity. But the weight would definitely be a factor. Also - I got the numbers from wikipedia so probably right, but could be wrong either. Did you test with lower weight? Did you reach higher altitudes?

    Awesome. The MB-339 is an awesome trainer, but the FD is really missing right now. Looking forward to it!
  13. Hiob
    Do you own the C-101 already? If you are in the market for a trainer it doesn’t get much better than this. The only downside is that it has no Autopilot whatsoever. The FD is awesome though.

    Cinebench is a synthetic benchmark that focuses a lot on parallelisation. It basically scales 1to1 with the number of cores. Completely unrelated to gaming performance. The other one I don’t know. For a good representation of DCS performance you should use Heaven Benchmark, which also happens to be DX11.
  15. Hiob
    Ah of course. Forgot that it is only 6 cores per CCD. That really makes it the worst choice out of the three.
  16. Hiob
    Well that would be below its max. service ceiling, but which altitude can be reached depends on other factors like temperature and weight.

    has two CCDs of which only one is connected to the 3D-cache. So basically same as the 7950X3D. Adds no benefit to gaming whatsoever. (doesn't hurt much necessarily either, but you have to make sure that the stupid windows scheduler is not running the wrong cores whilst gaming) Nothing wrong with that. I'm running a 5900X over a 5800X3D for various reasons. I was strictly relating to min-maxing money for gaming performance.
  18. Hiob
    This! Also a perfect summary why the 7800X3D is the optimal choice for gaming above 79XX processors.
  19. Hiob
    that‘s bogus. Debunked countless times. There comes a point of diminishing returns, but that would be somewhere above 90-120 fps for a flight sim. I recommend the following to see a direct comparison between different framerates www.testufo.com.
  20. Hiob
    Do you have set any FPS limit? Because that is forced by the CPU and it will always be CPU bound when set limit is reached.
  21. Hiob
    Just. By. Chance. AVs are mostly only good for spreading a false sense of security and alarming users with false positives.
  22. Hiob
    Yeah, thanks for pointing out. Interesting. Hope it gets sorted soon. Quite annoying.
  23. Hiob
    Well - this is whole different can of worms.
  24. Hiob
    Hyperthreading (Intel) or SMT (AMD) is a way to make two logical cores from one physical. Basically the scheduler is assigning two tasks to one core and the CPU is designed to handle that. DCS-MT is simply spreading different tasks from the game engine in a way that they can be handled in parallel by different threads. Wether those threads are assigned to physical or logical cores is not relevant to DCS. Any 4+ core CPU HT or not should be fine for DCS.

    I see. Makes sense. But hit me with a quote for the laser sintered gimbal when you are ready for it!
