Worth bearing in mind that some people don't like the pixel pitch of a 27" monitor at 1080p. In other words, if you increase the screen size but keep the same resolution you will eventually start to see the individual pixels, and images will appear blocky, especially if you're sat close to the screen. Personally I've never noticed this on my 27" LG screen.

Flew the Shark in the snow for the first time the other night; now that is an awful, awful effect. The snow moves with your head movements! Real immersion killer...

War? Oh, hold on...

It depends on the server wether our not you can use Game mode, although Win + Home should still perform an automatic startup in Sim mode.

You sir, are an inspiration, and potential cause of impending strain on wallet and relationship with missus! :) Your thread kept me up late last night, as I read it in it's entirety, and I now find myself browsing Leobodnar and Maplins... Keep up the fantastic work and keep us all posted; I'll let you know if I've caught the bug or not!

I hope this means eliminating the slideshow whenever my Shark fires rockets...

I believe it's just a cap, not like vsync which synchronises with refresh rate. With vsync on I can also get 45 fps, not just 30 or 60.

He was having the issue before he plugged in his new TM.

This (through painful experience) and double check your key bindings (even if you haven't changed them; funny things can happen to that list of keys when you're not looking...).

I'm not sure what mods you have installed for RoF, because my install is just under 10Gb! And all the planes are used by the AI, so I wouldn't say they're wasted megabytes :) (Not that we're here to discuss RoF; oh, and by the way, what are those mods, and are they any good!).

You'll want to change this section of the Labels.lua file: WeaponFormat = {} WeaponFormat[5000] = "[%N%n%D" WeaponFormat[10000] = "|%n%D" WeaponFormat[20000] = "|" By default the labels appear at 20km. If you have your distances in nm you should know that there are 1852m to 1nm.

My thoughts exactly. Many thanks and much appreciation to all.

Thanks for confirming. I was a bit rusty when I took her up, will look out for that in future; I'm just glad I got her down in one piece!

Hadn't been out in the P-51D for a while, as I had been spending my time with the Ka-50, so I decided to take the Mustang out for a spin on the Virtual Aerobatics server. Shortly after take off, during a pass of the airfield, the engine seized up on me... Not sure of the cause; it's possible I was overboosting the engine (high manifold pressure at low RPM).

Awesome shots Rock, will definitely be back soon!

Joined the Virtual Aerobatics server last night, just to take the Shark for a bit of a spin, and ended up helping AliG with some formation flying; wasn't long before we had company... Thanks to AliG, Pman, Shahdoh, Storm and anyone else who joined in. An enjoyable evening, even if all I had to do was keep the Shark going in a straight line! :) Some great flying lads.

Cool, glad we got it sorted; I know what it's like when the missus is away :)

Try clearing all mappings for "Centre View" in your list of P-51 view assignments (think it might be numpad 5 by default, and any other keys/buttons you've assigned); sounds like something is forcing the view to centre, rather than TrackIR not working.

Does the blue light come on as normal? Can't think why P-51 should be any different to A10 or BS, so not sure re-install of module would help. If you switch to A10/BS does it work, but then switch to P-51 in same session and it stops? Maybe you accidently switched to Arcade mode, and TrackIR axes not set up for P-51 in Arcade.

Was thinking exactly this (especially re expanded map, ground textures, explosion, smoke effects etc). Still, an unexpected and awesome update; looking forward to it!

Dammit, never had any interest in 'copters but seriously considering purchasing this now! Thanks guys... :-)

Me too, that blue isn't the best colour choice, not easy to read at all; any way to have the messages not disappear so quickly either?

Rise of Flight comes with 'ony' 2 free flyables, doesn't support PhysX and neither it nor DCS utilise DX11. Yes, RoF is also a flight sim, and a darn good one at that but I don't think you can compare it to DCS.

I'm fairly certain you can buy it on Steam, then use the key to install the version downloaded from the DCS site. Edit: corrected spelling errors, damn phone...

Yes, that should work. Not sure if all screens swap sides though; been a while since i flew the Hog!
