Fifth try and mission succeeded (reminder : other tries were canceled due to bugs/dead end encountered during scenario, probably some DCS patch broke something) - Was able to avoid Psycho going submarine by flying 6-8000 feet around WP1 instead of 15000. - Psycho is doing the first two Mk20 bombings. It takes forever for her to reach the correct alt/bearing but she finally make her first bomb run, without releasing any bomb, then doing the second run, same result (no drop). - Then she anchor at altitude, waiting for my attack. - I am doing my first Cluster Bomb attack run on the smoke spot. After the attack, I receive a Strike (or Knight ?) call asking our flight to intercept bogeys going towards Mother. - Afterwards, rest of mission went ok, we did all steps and land on Mother successfully. Oh well, was nice after all, except those unsuccessful tries almost killed me (boring). On to next mission.

Hi, how did you manage to make her not to crash ? I stuck with Psycho diving into the sea every time...

Tried a third time today, and again, Psycho dive into the water before releasing the smoke bomb. Could not continue the mission

Hello, got the exact same problem right now with this mission. First try, Right hand turn, Psycho goes ballistic and dive into the sea before releasing smoke bomb. Second try, Left hand turn, exact same problem. Help ! (again, I have no unofficial add-on, no waicom, no voice attack).

Hello, thanks for your reply Baltic. No unofficial mods, no Vaicomm/Voice Attack. I tried again 2 or 3 times and last tries were ok (Prince's plane hit and destroyed) even if at leat once, the missile passed nearby without exploding, but the plane exploded shortly after. On the last try, I finally manage to escape the gun attacks long enough to reach the escape phase, and managed to refuel and safely land on carrier. I am now on M07 Only a minor grip about Psycho voice, she seems quite sleepy Nice job anyway, I have some other campaigns from you awaiting to be played.

Hi all, I have frequent problems with this mission. when the iranian fighter launch a missile towards Prince, this missile misses about 50% of time After that, the iranian fighter wanders alone and eventually lands on his air base without further attack. as I have a lot of difficulties to escape the Flanker attack, and need to restart the mission after being shot down, I have tried M05 for 7 or 8 times, with 50% probability of the iranian fighter totally failing his attack on Prince. any workaround ?

I did not use DCS for the last 2-3 years. Some stuff was not updated.

Hello and thanks I have installed mbuccia quadviews as told with following settings : smoothen_focus_view_edges=0.2 sharpen_focus_view=0.0 [app:DCS] turbo_mode=0 peripheral_multiplier=0.25 focus_multiplier=1.0 horizontal_fixed_section=0.40 vertical_fixed_section=0.40 Transition from central high def view to lesser def peripheral view is smoother thanks to the smoothen_focus_view_edges setting. I get more or less the same FPS with those settings.

Reply to self : Problem found : I uninstalled then reinstalled Raven One campaign and Saint comms are back.

Hi all, any solution to this problem ? I am restarting DCS and the Raven One campaign after several years (and re-reading/watching F18 tutorials), and I have no audio comms from Saint or Strike during the mission. I could hear the game comms (ATC, carrier, etc) but never the voice from the campaign. I did a full repair of DCS and checked all my audio settings. Seems fine. Also, I am using complex radio settings and did check that I was on channel 2 (PRI) and channel 1 (AUX), with AM selected. Any idea ?

Hi all, thanks for your replies and help, and sorry for the late answer, I was abroad for work. I disabled the OpenXR toolkit which was causing pbs with the embedded Pimax QuadViews. Here are my main settings now : PimaxPlay : Refresh Rate = 120 Hz Image Quality = High (no upscaling) GPU Upscaling = None Sharpness = 1 Quadviews : Customize 30/30/100/25 Central Priority Rendering = unchecked Smart Smoothing = unchecked Lock to Half Framerate = checked (120/2 = 60 FPS) Hidden Area Mask = checked DCS Cockpit Displays = 1024 Render Displays every frame = checked Anti-Aliasing = MSAA (4x) Upscaling = Off Sharpening = 0.0 (done with PimaxPlay settings) Pixel Density = 1 (no up or downscale) With those settings, I tried to avoid any upscaling (I hate ghosting effect and my 3090 is not as good as 4xxx or 5xxx gpu on this) and to reach a stable 60 FPS. (so, less than 90 or even 70 FPS, but looks ok to me). Seems it's ok most of the time on my PC. I will need to try some complex mission but I tried on a busy supercarrier deck, above large cities (Beirut) or low level woods, etc. Quadviews is helping a lot even if I do not like the blurred external area. But I can live with that. Feel free to react or suggest if I am missing anything. Regards, Chris

I have just set right now : PimaxPlay : Image Quality to HIGH (I guess, no upscaling, 1:1 image) QuadView : Unchecked Central Priority Rendering : Unchecked Frequency : 90 Hz DCS : Max FPS : 90 On launch (on SuperCarrier deck with F18), I got around 32-34 FPS. After launch, it fluctuates from 29 to 34 FPS (above sea, guess it will be lower above ground) Image is superb but I guess it is a bit too low FPS. Guess I need to choose the best setting to increase FPS without reducing quality too much. Image Quality in Pimax ? Upscaling in Pimax ? Quadviews / Foveating options ?

PCL has no Eye Tracking, yes. Ok. So to be sure : no Max FPS in DCS, and I just choose 90Hz in PimaxPlay ? and OpenXR will decrease the FPS if needed ? Not sure how it will choose the best max FPS.

I have tried with and without Eye Tracking setting in DCS, same result : no DCS image in PCL, only the PimaxPlay "Cosmos" background. However, it seems I have a foveated rendering without selecting Use QuadViews in DCS, if I set Quadviews Setting (and Central Priority Rendering ?) in PimaxPlay. Thanks. In oder to do that, which parameters do I set in PimaxPlay, and in DCS ?

Hi all, I just bought a brand new Pimax Crystal Light to replace my HP Reverb G2, and I am a bit struggling with the settings, between PimaxPlay, OpenXR in game settings, DCS, ... So I have a few questions below, thanks for your help ! My PC : Windows 11, Intel i9-10900K, 32 Gb RAM, nVidia RTX 3090 Frequency / FPS PimaxPlay : 90 Hz Refresh Rate, half-framerate set to OFF DCS : Max FPS set to 45 Question : is it the right wait to do, or better to set Half-framerate to ON in PimaxPlay and Max FPS to 90 in DCS ? Upscaling / Quality PimaxPlay : Image Quality : 0.75 (Medium) GPU Upscaling : None (I guess that 0.75 Image Quality is already upscaling ???) Sharpness : 0.4 DCS : Pixel Density : 1.0 Foveated View : I am trying to use QuadViews : PimaxPlay : Quadviews settings : Balanced Pimax Central Priority Rendering : Balanced DCS : Use QuadViews : OFF Eye Tracking : OFF Question : if I try to set Use Quadviews : ON in DCS, I have no image in the helmet (only the single image copy on main monitor) Am I setting this correctly ? Thanks for your help on my questions, and if you have any advice about my overall set-up of parameters, feel free to reply Chris
