+1 Also you can try using compression if you have SSD and modern CPU:

ESSAY, PART 3: Landing and stopping.
jackill replied to Chief Instructor's topic in DCS: Spitfire L.F. Mk. IX

No such issue for me, it's centering to the same number each time: Maybe take it apart from housing and check if some bolt tightening board/sensor/cam loosened?

+1 to what Screamadelica wrote. I am switching on pump shortly during startup to pressurise the system, then switching off for a startup, warm up and taxi. After the start I'm switching it on permanently (+ pitot tube heater). Also when main tanks are getting empty on high altitude, it could be needed to pressurise them via this valve: null

I tested at 5*C, warming up at 1200 RPM. First try without dilution, second one holding dilution form engine start. After 3 minutes pressures were almost identical if not the same. Topic is also noticed here:

Initial tests suggest that OC is not worth the hassle - 1-3% increase from stock in games.

You are right, you need to click much more to the left than center of the cover. Regarding dilution I have the same observation - no real effect over oil pressure (I tested in -10*C). I recall some other discussion on this forum, that oil dilution was used before engine shutdown and effect during engine startup is not correct. However there was no mention in changelog.

I believe that this is removed from aircraft right now - I can’t even open the button cover. I will post video later.

Sortie 1 - instantly killed
jackill replied to sepruda's topic in Spitfire LF Mk.IX Beware! Beware! Campaign
Welcome to the club - just done the same in Sortie 1 Bailed out over France after hit into engine by 190 who came from above as I was glued to the leader. One lesson to learn from though. -
After quick testing it looks better in my case.I checked with Spitfire instant action mission for Normandy - Squadron Scramble (bombers intercept over London). Before update I had either terrible drops when inside bombers formation (wake turbulence enabled) or crash to desktop. After update it went much more smoother barely dropped from 60 fps when bombing started. Needs more testing though.

AI activate wings unsweep damages player aircraft
jackill replied to Nealius's topic in Bugs and Problems
It's probably fixed in the newest version. Form the changelog: AI aircraft. When F-14s are set to uncontrolled, they flash their wings open and can damage aircraft near them - fixed. -
Maybe it was the same for me, I didn't remember. However now it stays OFF when launching DCS from shortcut. @equinox137 Maybe try editing it in Saved Games\DCS\Config\options.lua
-
I had the same: easy comms and mirrors. I disabled launcher, as a workaround.

Speedbrake retraction bug with new detent option
jackill replied to bernyssen's topic in Bugs and Problems
It is meant to work like F-4 special option? https://f4.manuals.heatblur.se/dcs/special_options.html So it will add a "transparent" curve to my axis? -
High mouse polling rate impacting framerate
jackill replied to Smashy's topic in Game Performance Bugs
@Grindmetal Thank you - changing polling rate from 1000 Hz to 500 Hz did the trick Very strange bug, even in menu moving the mouse caused frametime spikes. -
High mouse polling rate impacting framerate
jackill replied to Smashy's topic in Game Performance Bugs
Same. It spikes frame time like crazy. Hovered if you are veeeery slow with this movement, then fps is fine. Zoom in with mouse wheel does not have this issue. -
Any details about new option in axis tuning - hardware AB detent? It was not mentioned in changelog. I fiddled with values but wasn’t able to see any effect.
