Can we expect anything in May? Announcement at least?

Hi Flappie, Support told me to increase the page file manually. I did not do that since I was always keeping an eye on the resources in the system DCS was nowhere close to eating up my memory. It was only killing my VRAM Anyway I have remembered that I had HAGS in win10 turned on. I have disabled it and problem also disappeared. I never had it again for 2 weeks. I have also informed the support about it. So you know what to do if someone else comes with the same problem. Best regards,

Quick start mission of Apache in Syria starts with 19million triangles. I believe this is going overboard if you are not using Unreal Engine 5. every apache is around 5 million triangles (hornet or A-10 is less than 600,000 in comparison and they do not look inferior in detail and they all have lod's apache does not) so you and your wingman and 2 other parked apaches brings you the whopping 19M triangles. F-16 is arounn 1M triangles without Lod. So when you are flying in free flight in syria for example. You extend from your wingmen until it becomes a dot than you look around you render around 1.6M triangles and when you turn your head to the direction of your wingmen so that the small dot gets redered your triangel count jups to 2.7M. As you said they are being rendered with full effects on and it hurts it. It is not only playable aircraft there are also some ground AI assets which have no LOD's and being rendered at full glory with unnecessary thousands of triangles which you actually never see.

Ok! Wilco, Thanks!

I have no problems getting there. My question was related to the following steps. First I choose this after create a new ticket button, Than what do I choose for the module. I do not think it is related to any module.

Hi there, Apparently we are having the same problem. I have just noticed it. But your report is much older than mine. Did you find a solution for it? here is my thread if you want to see:

It might sound silly may be but, I have never used DCS on flat screen. (I'm new only 1 year in DCS) so I have no means of headtracking, or I do not even have a free hat to look around and I believe I cannot fly anything on flat screen I wanted to open a support ticket but I'm little bit confused there. It asks for a module where I have a problem with in the form. I do not know if this a moudule related issue so what should I fill there? I'm actually at this moment trying to make Apache run in my system. 3950x 32GB 2070super. She does not fit to my VRAM. So I'm trying to lower every setting to bare minimum without turning the game in to garbage to get 36FPS from apache. So far I could not succeed. But the other user is having this far before Apache release. That's how I noticed this behavior from DCS. When DCS exceeds VRAM it becomes a slide show. And most of the time I do not see the VRAM purged after exiting mission. So I had to exit game completely to free the VRAM. Since task manager performance monitoring was running during my tests I noticed this high CPU load after quitting DCS.

No nothing at all. I only fly in VR (oculus q2). If it makes a sense for this.

here it is. It happened again. I did not know which file I needed to upload. I hope the correct one is included. dcs.log debrief.log dcs.20220412-200524.dmp dcs.20220412-200524.crash

After quitting the game DCS keeps running in the background occupying 1 cpu thread 100%. Only way to stop it is end task through the task manager.

Really! Did they fix her. Damn. I still need to wait for a few months to test it again. She will also be an instant buy for me if it works.

I'm actually afraid of BS3. BS2 runs and looks wonderful in VR. I have the apache too and asks 12GB vram in medium textures it is a slideshow in VR. I hope we will not get a BS3 with million triangles super big textures and no LOD like they did with apache. It will render her unplayable for me.

Hi, I'm from the future. Meanwhile there are 3 modules launched F-16, Hind and Apache. They have no LOD. The instant fly mission free flight of Syria with Apache starts with 19 million triangles in VR.

Hi, I have tried it with everything set to low and it still exceeds 8GB vram after 20-30minutes. Same problem I had too with Hind and I did not buy it. If I use medium textures so that I can read at least the cockpit labels it immediately starts asking for 12GB VRAM in very short time. It even starts above 8GB after spawn. F-16 has similar problem too but you can easily play an hour before VRAM finishes.

That's the phsical resolution, LOL, If you are not using the slider all the way to right than you are downsampling the FOV center. That's not an arbitrary resolution it is the resolution where you get 1-1 pixel projection for the center.

Just to be clear. I'm perfectly fine if the flir is not enabled anywhere. It is just the flir which tanks the FPS in my case. 3950x 2070S 32GB Quest 2 native resolution (slider all the way to max) standalone no steamVR.

CV1 even with 1.5 does not come close to native resolution quest2 or G2. I would not have this problem too in your setup.

Yes it is a major issue in VR. I believe there is something wrong in the pipeline and DCS loads full set of textures per eye. If I use high textures I have exactly your problem and VRAM cannot be purged by exiting the mission only. At this moment using medium only but Hind medium textures are also too big so no Hind for me. Terrain textures does not solve this problem object textures are too big. Medium textures are actually fine but the problem is DCS recently moved to 3 levels of textures and old modules like f-5 or Huey does not have medium textures. If you select medium those modules load Low textures where you cannot read any label in the cockpit even with the zoom. I hope ED solves this problem soon. Because more modules they add more textures will be loaded in VRAM and soon medium textures will become unplayable too.

Thank you, really thank you! I cross my fingers to see the fruits soon.

Damn one deal breaker already So bundled campaigns are also treated as paid campaigns I guess? I wish ED had just done it. This plane is what made them do the breakthrough and I believe it should be treated as their showcase model together with hornet. Please ED just convert A-10c campaigns to A-10c II for us.

So the bundled a-10c campaigns coming with the module are open for modification? Can I modify and save them as a10c-II campaigns? If it is so that it is wonderful. Do you know a link describing the procedure? I have never done it.

Hi, This tool is wonderful for the missions but can you please make the bundled A-10c campaigns coming with A-10c II module also compatible with A-10c II?. I have just bought it and unfortunately realized that I cannot use it in the campaigns. I fully got used to using the scorpion HMCS. A-10 without it feels like another plane. If it is that simple to replace it in a mission I guess it would not be a huge undertaking for ED. Thanks in advance and Kindest regards,

I'm desperately waiting for it too. For me the amount of hat's and interchangeability and price is very important. (They told that they were targeting 200 euro range for standard version which fits perfectly for me). But since they could not keep the targeted 50-60 euro range for the sem modules I'm getting worried about it. Virpil CM3 fits perfectly to my needs except price (shipping included) but if VKB cannot keep the price target and overshoots it with 60-80% I than do not know what to do. I think this is what's holding them back. Ther premium throttle should be competing with the Virpil or Wing wing products where standart version will be the new standard best budget throttle like the gladiator. But if they start selling it over 300 euros it will not be such a success.

So no loop maneuver? Just weapon launch? This is new

It is not possible to make it in VR. You will feel sick because of diminished parallax and reduction of depth perception. You would want to throw away you headset. Believe me i have experienced that. Tried analog stereovision with wide angle lenses. It is a disaster.
