Ich auch nicht. Alles läuft wie gewohnt. Wenn TrackIR probleme macht, liegt es auch normalerweise an TrackIR selbst. z.B. verursacht es bei mir Probleme, wenn ich erst TrackIR starte und dann erst den Joystick auf dem ich Center und Pause belegt habe anschließe. Also ich muss immer 1. Input Devices anschließen, 2. TrackIR starten, 3. DCS starten. Ansonsten sehe ich es wie Atari!

I think this is what it boils down too, some people are completely shell shocked by the first announcement of Razbam and see the glass half empty (or empty for that matter), whilst others prefer to wait for a definitive result of the issue, before deciding on their reaction. And I (smug as I am ) just try to advertise for keeping it cool until there is actual reason to get mad. (which may come or not, who knows. Personally I don’t believe it will, but I‘m sure some people will get mad at me for being offensive optimistic ) You‘re welcome!

Yes... LOL indeed......

Quote Razbam: Dear customers and community RAZBAM Simulations is actively working with EAGLE DYNAMICS to reach an agreement to resolve our internal dispute and we don't want the discussion that our public declaration has generated to escalate any further. We want to assure you that it has never been nor will it be our intention to abandon our products. We look forward to a prompt and satisfactory resolution, turn the page, and move forward. We have different ways of processing information - that's for sure.

If that was the last statement in the matter (if it was ever phrased this way in the first place), but it wasn't. I really wished people were similar fast to process new information as they are with getting angry. (....and "demanding")

Yes, here! Couldn't have put it any better.

Yes I say so, the difference should be very obvious, but just in case I spell it out for you: The average Kickstarter campaign has a concept, nothing else. An early mock-up at best. Now try to find the difference to EA, where you basically pay to be an beta-tester (for the benefit of having, you know, Access to it, whilst it gets finished). But it is 90% done and you can actually use it.

Kickstarter and EA is not remotely the same.

Maybe.... Though I get comparable fps to other game in DCS. Point was - VR is always more taxing than pancake in the same engine.

Perhaps you should look into how AVs work a bit, what they can and cannot do and why there is always an error quota that involves false positives as well as false negatives. Blind trust in AVs is naive. Even more so in the likes of McAfee. If you wanna quit over something like that, be my guest. But it is a complete ill informed overreaction.

Just by chance - on the topic of McAfee:

Turn of mirrors! Even though the mirror in the AH-64 is tiny - it still has the same performance hit than all the other mirrors. (That won't solve all your performance issues, but helps a bit!)

My test is pancake though. Generally that should translate to VR, but there could be additional factors. So take it with a grain of salt.

1. Don't use McAfee. It's just crap and adds nothing of value over the onboard solution from windows. 2. False positives are not the fault of DCS. It's just the way AVs work. If there happen to be a snippet of code that was put in the search heuristic that is similar enough to some lines of code that happen to be used by DCS (or the other way round) it produces false positives. Just by chance. You always trade detection rates vs. false positives and false negative quotas. Some AVs do it better, some worse. And it can change from instance to instance. That's the reason, a file should be quarantaned and checked with virustotal to get a clearer picture. AVs only work when you use them thoughtfully. No AV is a fire and forget solution!

Objection! In some Aircraft they look about "acceptable" (F-16 ), but most of the time they work completely unrealistic (perspective) or are LEGO low resolution. Even though I could afford the performance tax on a 4090 I mostly deactivate them because they are just distracting!

Yes, but I think that is the problem. If you want to do it properly (I think at least) you would need to render a separate POV for each mirror (twice in VR), no? There are shortcuts and alleviations like rendering in lower details and lower resolution, but still. Don't get me wrong - I'm all for an improvement of mirrors! Currently I deactivate them usually because they hit performance so badly and still loook awful most of the time. I just don't see how to improve them in a meaningful way without absolutely tanking the performance...... _____ A first step would/could be to take the best working module and at least make the mirror behaviour consistent through all modules.

Perhaps your Anti-Virus blocks a dll of being loaded or an executable of running. Try to set an exception for DCS (incl. the savegames folder) in your AV. There are a lot of false positives lately.

No issue with landing here - apart from my incopetence of keeping it straight when applying brakes. But that is a me-problem and affects all fixed wing ACs more or less.....

Agreed! One step by another. I could fill a book with things I'd like to see in DCS, but I'll take it as it comes.

For combined arms and helicopter players it does a lot for immersion.

I'm a little confused as well. Why don't mirrors "work this way"?

Nice!

Given the current statements from Heatblur regarding the Phantom release (may) and from ED regarding the patch cycles (6 weeks), it is not unlikely.* (*IF everything goes as planned , so I‘m confident but wouldn’t bet my life on it)

No quarantine, immediately deleted? Wow, I would ditch this AV in no time. Pretty intrusive considering, that false positives (like in this case) are not that uncommon. You can only repair/re-install DCS and deactivate Eset for the time being and then set an exception for all DCS folders.

My benchmark does not account for any abnormality that may occur with certain setups or aircraft. It is just a F-16 flying low over Haifa in Syria. It is just meant to measure raw basic engine performance.
