Wow, like the Pyramids on Sinai map

All in all I am happy with the looks of the map. It is hard on the PC hardware, because of huge number of trees on large parts of the map. VR Performance is not very good, due to the huge amounts of trees. Combined with shadows, this is a fps-killer (even on a top system). I decided to turn on reprojection to solve this, as I want shadows and trees. Bodø looks stunning in sunset. Hope performance will be optimized over time. Already better than South Atlantic, imho.

The new FC 2024 was apparently developed for MAC (Modern Air Combat). They aren’t doing MAC anymore so they are moving these planes into Flaming Cliffs 2024. I hope to see many more FC planes, but seriously doubt it as there is very little money to be charged for "low-fidelity"-planes compared to the "premium" high-fidelity" ones. Personally I love the FC3 planes, as my brain does not have time for more than 2-3 full fidelity planes/helicopters at a time. The FC3 planes gets you up in the air quickly for some variation. The SU-25 is one of my absolute favorites...

Love your mission. Works great!

Tip is to set up one vibration at a time. Also the vibrations should have different strength if they are similar, so you can differentiate e.g stalls from flaps down. Less is more, except for the cannon

How far from complete is the BO-105? Any hope to see it early access in 2024, considering this thread is 11 years old?

@BIGNEWY I respectfully think is on topic, as the Afghanistan map opens up for the asymmetric warfare experienced by both USSR and USA. It is critical we actually have decent insurgent forces and realistic AI ground infantry behavior to really enjoy this map. I love EDs work, so please do take this as positive and constructive feedback.

I really hope ED can put alot of focus on new infantry units and ground unit AI behaviour/animations. It has been forever since you teased us with pathfinding and new animations (actually August 2022!!!) https://m.facebook.com/eagle.dynamics/posts/we-are-pleased-to-inform-you-that-work-is-progressing-on-a-range-of-infantry-ani/10166884531335341/ I have most of the modules and maps, but are hesitant to buy more, untill we get above fixed. With the Apache the poor ground unit behavior is very apparent (ref. the sliding RPG units!)

Map looks awesome. How will the VR performance be like?

Nothing changed for the modules I fly, so I do not think this is a global issue.

Could you be more specific?

Would be great if all 8 motors would be working, but was not a big deal when I was using it. I highly recommend to buy the seat from a shop with possibility to return it if you do not like it. I returned mine, because it was very uncomfortable after 30-40 mins.

Lovely described

Agree. Many of the settings I have not enabled even on my system. To get good frame rates, my personal preferences is: - Terrain shadows: OFF - View distance: HIGH (Medium for helis) - Clouds: ULTRA (Standard for helis) - Cockpit shadows: HIGH -Sliders around 75-80% (preload at 50%) Rest of the graphical eye candy settings OFF/LOWEST Test on your system and fine tune to your liking. Personally I like DLAA. DLSS for Apache. On my system I am able to get 90fps in most map and module combos (VR user).

I have also experienced generally a much better performance in VR after DCS UPDATE DCS 2.9.3.51704 Now I am able to get stable 90fps on most maps and modules. Great work ED!
