I did notice there are now two Norwegian skins, one for 336 squadron and one for 338... but they are both exactly the same.

I'm building a new pc for a family member to also play DCS and was wondering if there is any information on the 1% lows between the 14700k and 9800X3D in DCS? I have seen some older information that the AMD chips are inferior at 1% lows in DCS, but I know DCS has had some updates for AMD chips and was wondering if this has changed?

need more information Sudden drops in FPS/stuttering
Netrunner replied to Netrunner's topic in Game Performance Bugs
So, I just installed 96gb of DDR5 6000mhz ram and I'm having this issue again with the same settings I used that seemed to fix my issue temporarily. Lots of stuttering, fps drops, flying low level on Kola with the Chinook. Going to test in other maps. It is possible it is happening when I alt-tab out of the game and then go back to the game, but I will keep testing to try to nail down if it's an issue on all maps, if its alt-tab out of the game, or something else. -

Yup, I remember that whole thing clear as day. They had an entire P-40F module ready to go and had taken pre-orders for it and then bailed from DCS. Of course, I lost my 50-60$ for the abandoned Hawk as well.

I agree that we need a Germany map. I think a Battle of Berlin map would be an excellent choice personally as I was thinking of what map would work with our late war aircraft and the upcoming La-7 and the eventual Me-262. We would be able to have both Western and Eastern fronts on the same map provided it is made large enough.

Missing USSR airbases in the upcoming Afghanistan map
Netrunner replied to Ronin_Gaijin's topic in Wish List
It was Shindad. These aren't my pictures, but they are of Shindad in around 2011 and onward. -
Yea, they definitely shot me down. I think I noticed my wingmen were not engaging enemy aircraft though now that you mention it.

Missing USSR airbases in the upcoming Afghanistan map
Netrunner replied to Ronin_Gaijin's topic in Wish List
When I was there, there was at least 1 airfield that had a lot of abandoned Soviet era aircraft in various states of disrepair in 2011. I can't remember the name of it off the top of my head, but I do think it was Shindand. There wasn't any at Bagram that I can remember. Bagram did have the old Soviet control tower still, though it wasn't used for air traffic control. There were also at least some old Soviet buildings at Bagram that were still used, and I want to say there was a ZSU emplacement or some sort of Soviet towed artillery piece that was next to the buildings. It's been a long time so my memory escapes me on what exactly it was. -
Because of that I was thinking... what if Eagle Dynamics did the export model used by Egypt the Ka-52E? From Wiki: "Egypt's helicopter is a modified version of the basic Ka-52 Alligator that serves in the Russian Aerospace Forces. Unlike the basic model, the Egyptian Ka-52 utilizes anti-corrosion materials and has a reinforced fuselage structure. It received new landing gear and wheels, designed for the increased takeoff weight of the helicopter. The Egyptian model features updated avionics and a new cooling system for operating in hot climate. Dmitry Rogozin, Deputy Prime Minister of Russia on defense and space industry, proposed to name it the "Nile Crocodile".[45] The helicopter is equipped with the new OES-52 electro-optical observation and laser targeting system, replacing the standard GOES-451 mounted under the nose.[46] The new optronic system began development in 2011 as a collaboration between Kamov and Sagem, and is based on the French company's STRIX sighting System.[47] The OES-52 provides greater range of target detection and recognition. The helicopter features the Arbalet-52 dual-band coherent pulse radar, which has an Earth mapping range of 32 km and a detection range of 25 km for ground targets and 15 km for aerial targets.[48] The Nile Crocodiles use President-S airborne defense systems for protection against guided missiles.[49][50] The system includes both radar and laser warning receivers, MAW sensors, chaff/flare dispensers, in addition to ECM and DIRCM jammers.[51] Egyptian Ka-52s feature two new DIRCM sets installed on either side of the fuselage, which are different from the standard L370-5 sets.[52] Moreover, the laser-warning system present on the Russian variants of the Ka-52 has been removed, and a L-150 Pastel radar warning receiver has been installed instead.[49] Egypt plans to arm its Ka-52s with Russian anti-tank guided missiles. The Air Force has chosen two types of missiles; namely the laser-guided Vikhr and the radar-guided Ataka beam-riding missiles."

So I recently flew the FW190A8 and did several hours of 1 on 1 BFM training with the AI and didn't manage to get a single hit. This is even with setting the AI to rookie. The enemy aircraft were a P-47 and a P-51. I know there have been AI changes going on the past several years, so did they make the AI even more UFO like? I distinctly remember the AI I-16 being some sort of unbeatable monster when I flew against it several years ago.

fixed FPS drops and mouse movement causing stutter
Netrunner replied to ExGreyFox's topic in Game Performance Bugs
I just started having this problem tonight as well! Only happens when I move the mouse. -

Based on some testing, I think you fixed my problems! Sim has been running smoothly so far, the past couple of days. I really appreciate your help. -

Yea but the reality is two things 1. What does that really mean? I've been a customer for 11 years now and bought the Hawk module from the now defunct VEAO. Only way to play it now is from an old 1.X version. Supported like that? The game has progressed a lot and I'm not going to have two DCS installs on my pc. My install right now takes up almost half my hard drive and that's without all the maps (which I own). Also, the Hawk was a buggy mess that didn't work that great to begin with. 2. Even if it's supported continuously in new versions, it will never be able to be updated 3d model, art, and system wise as DCS progresses over the years. There was a 3d model and art update for it supposedly in progress by Razbam but that's out the window now. Also, the more the merrier. Razbam supposedly was going to give us a GR.3/FRS.1 and potentially a GR.7/.9 and B+ version. That can't happen as things stand now.

The difference between the GR.1 and GR.3 was that the GR.3 had the Ferranti Laser Rangefinder and Marked Target Spotter, uprated Pegasus 102 engine, and Radar Warning Receiver on the fin and tail boom. I don't know if the Ferranti Laser Rangefinder and Target Spotter that was used is still classified or not but that's all you really need to make the GR.3 in DCS if you combine the flight model data of the AV8A, as that already had the uprated Pegasus 102 engine. GR.1 could easily be made off the data for the AV8A since the GR.1 and the AV8A are the same except for radios, IFF, and the GR.1 had a slightly less powerful engine with 2,500 less pounds of thrust.

Some good AV8A/GR1 pr0n.

need more information Sudden drops in FPS/stuttering
Netrunner replied to Netrunner's topic in Game Performance Bugs
It's not VRAM. I just did an experiment on the Caucus map which is traditionally the best performing and I was only using 9GB of VRAM (Out of 16) and 22GB of Ram (Out of 32) and yet as soon as I was few meters off the ground the stuttering/slideshow started happening. -

Netrunner replied to Netrunner's topic in Game Performance Bugs
I just turned grass completely off and as soon as I descended to a couple hundred meters off the ground during an autorotation on the Kola map the simulator turned into a slideshow and wouldn't recover. Even on the next flight it was a slideshow as soon as I started. The only thing I noticed was my RAM usage was fluctuating between 26 and 28gb out of 32gb. Could I be running out of RAM? -
need more information Sudden drops in FPS/stuttering
Netrunner posted a topic in Game Performance Bugs
I have recently noticed that when I'm flying helicopters and get close to the ground after taking off that I get sudden FPS drops/stuttering. This is happening while I'm the only unit on the map as well. It will show me getting 180 fps and then suddenly drop to 140, 120, etc, while stuttering. It's so bad it's made me crash while practicing autorotation. The FPS counter will show me being above 100 but it's like it's gone down to less than the 10. I've tried playing around with my settings such as using all different DLSS versions and it's done it every single time on the Syria and Kola map. Note, I haven't tried it in the Caucus map though. I have a pretty beefy PC so I'm at a loss as to whether it's DCS itself or something else. I've tried disabling the launcher, using max performance power settings, and deleting fxo and metashaders, but it didn't make a difference either. -
Ah yes, they were the same as the American AV-8A except for the radios. I forgot to put the AV-8A and AV-8C on my list. Surely, if we could get the AV-8B Night Attack we could get the AV-8A or AV-8C. The initial AV-8A were basically the same as the GR.1 except for radios, IFF, and the more powerful engine from the GR.3.
