Advice for New PC Needed
Lange_666 replied to Captain Chuck's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Yes but... for how long? The 12GB on my 3080ti get already totally filled up on more demanding maps and that's not at full max settings. It doesn't cause any stutters at a capped 60 FPS so it's perfectly fine to play with the VRAM maxed out but you then buy yourself a system which runs against it's limits already. Same goes for the RAM. I have 64GB and it goes above 32 GB on more demanding maps or multiplayer and also not at max settings. -
No need to thank me. Don't forget to run a DCS repair to get your quarantined files for the F15E and M2000C back in place (you might take a look at this: DCS Updater / Launcher to get your DCS stuff done from one single app. tip: don't mess with the Graphics Preset Editor)
-
No !!! You need to exclude the DCS folder in your anti-virus program so your anti-virus will skip it during scans Don't worry about the scan skipping stuff, if a real virus would reside on your computer, it will 99,99999999999999999% not originate from one of those files your AV found in your DCS folder. You mentioned you are using Windows Defender. For Windows 11: - Start: type Settings in the search bar, select Settings (System) - Go Privacy & Security - Go Windows Security - Go Virus & threat protection - Under "Virus & threat protection settings" select "Manage settings" - Scroll down to Exclusions and select "Add or remove exclusions" - Click the "+ Add an exclusion" button and add your DCS folder (and your Saved Games folder at the same time) there. Now run a repair again to redownload those files that returned a false positive. Once done you're all set.
-
Then you don't exclude DCS the correct way because if excluded it from the AV check and run a repair to get those quarantined files back, nothing DCS related should come up.
-
Your files are not infected. Your AV just detects it as a virus (even low risk!!). Like MAX said, there are numerous posts and threads about these false positives here in the forum. Never did i read that one of these false positives turned out to be a true positive. Just exclude your entire DCS folder (or the Mods/Aircrafts folder) from your AV scan, run a repair (to replace the quarantined files) and you're all set (or stay scared).

Grow a big pair of balls, exclude the DCS folder (or only the files that cause your AV to trip if you have small balls) from the AV scan and move on.

M2000 DLL tagged as trojan with DCS 2.9.5.55918?
Lange_666 replied to ataribaby's topic in Installation Problems
I have the same hashnr for this dll file. Removed the DCS folder from exclusion in the AV scan. When I then scan the single file with my AV it comes up clean. Then scanned the entire DCS folder, everything clean. Re-added DCS folder to exclusion in AV settings. -
Recommendation for new joystick
Lange_666 replied to Hummingbird's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Yes (although I never felt the VKB Gladiator). It will depend on the size of the baseplate. For example the baseplate of a Virpil WarBRD is a bit smaller and a lot less heavy than that of the Warthog but I found the Virpil one it not stable enough when doing quick/hard maneuvers. So I drilled new holes in the Warthog baseplate to mount the Virpil base on it. -

- Virpil (depending on the cams used) - VKB (depending on cams and gimbal design) - Thrustmaster with the new AVA base (depending on the cams) - Winwing (depending on the cams used). - others? My Virpil WarBRD base goes around smooth with no transition. -
I would at least try other cams. On my Virpil I use cams with no center feel. The original cams had a feelable center point, I didn't like that.

From the bottom reply's on the above posted video: The ava emphasized that my f18 grip had a something loose in the pitch axis that made some clunk (roll was ok. a10 grip was ok) ... Googled it... its common. I opened the grip and retightened and loctited all the screws and the clunk is gone. There is one obvious screw inside that was the culprit. Had nothing to do with AVA but was very noticeable with AVA.
-
Personally I prefer the XL version. On the 15 button version you loose at least 2 buttons per page to go back and forth between pages leaving you with only 13 buttons (same goes for the XL off course but you still have 30 buttons per page to play with)
-
Virpil base has the same issue (with heavy (metal) Warthog stick mounted on it). I guess that with a lighter (plastic) stick it balances out more quickly. But, i never found this to be a problem. I never release the stick like in the video anyway so it's actually a non-issue.
-
I have crashes with Rift-S and running MT with Turbo Mode On when taking headset off (ST is fine). Turbo Mode set to OFF solves the problem. Bug has been around for quite a while, nothing to do with latest updates (either DCS or Oculus).
-
Only option is to use software to control the output of your controllers and look for a command that can give you different output on the second press. Example: For my Warthog i use Target's SEQ command (sequence). MapKey(&Throttle, LTB, SEQ(F10_Theater_map_view, F1_Cockpit_view) First press F10, second press F1, next press F10 again and so on.

It happens on more places and not related to VR either. You can check for instance the object count in the view direction + even if they don't differ that much, some of the objects can ask for a lot more PC power.
-
Finally. What took them so long? Already in the Cougar era precise gimbals existed to replace the dreaded Cougar gimbal. That the spring tensions are adjustable per spring is a nice touch compared to the Virpil and VKB bases. However, it needs a baseplate. Edit: Ah, baseplate is sold separately.

AppData folder is a hidden folder in Windows. Show hidden files and folders on Windows 11 (or 10) easily by clicking the View button in File Explorer and selecting Show > Hidden items. You can also display hidden items by opening File Explorer and navigating to Options > View > "Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives."
-
That's correct.
-
I would wait until the next patch before buying stuff which probably will not solve the problem.

Saved Games\DCS World (or DCS.openbeta)\ Config\Options.lua VR section (on top): set enable from true to false
