The basic question is whether it will be EA from the very beginning, and not in half a year or even a year.

Will there be an aircraft carrier right away with the release of EA? I can't imagine flying only from the ground.

Will we get the Corsair sooner than the Hellcat?

The exact date was not given, of course, but there was talk of the 2nd quarter. At least recently. We know, we know, "subject to change" :

MiG-29A Today? The 2nd quarter is ending and I have a few days off from now .

Does left MFD work now or not yet?

Despite the announcements over a year ago, I would not have expected this. BD is certainly working on other campaigns at the moment (as I know and the main focus is there), and the situation with PC does not guarantee further development. However, you will see good news very soon. However, this is a different topic related to the map of Germany :).

I have a similar impression. While the problem of high temperatures in single player has been solved, in multi I still see (although maybe not as high as it was before the hot fix) quite high CPU temperature. I have a quite simple monitoring system, which consists of LED signaling about temperatures. When I fly in single I have a blue light, which means "CPU quite cool", below 65C degrees, but in multi I have purple, which means temperature around 70-80C, something like that. For now I explain to myself that on the same computer I set up a server to fly with friends, so there are more processes than in single, but the temperature is definitely higher multi vs single. I don't know if this is a bug or the norm though.

Wow, thanks a lot again!

Why? Because they could! +1, but it's worth noting that Kiowa currently has no updates, also Discord is pretty quiet about support. After the team split in January (2nd time for PC) I don't really expect any updates soon, although I hope I'm wrong.

We've heard about such plans, but there was nothing specific about the Mi-8 exactly from what I remember. In the case of the Ka-50 or A-10C, there were announcements by name that these modules would receive new versions, so I'm basing it on that. Either way, for me it's an immediate purchase, I also like the Mi-8 very much and either a newer version or at least some interior refreshment would be useful, like they plan to do with the Su-25. Personally, I would like to see something with a pointed nose, something like the Mi-8MTV-5. I would like to note, however, that the withdrawal of Russian helicopters from the Russian store rather completely destroys any plans for any development I suppose. Im a pessimist here. There is no agreement on this, one can conclude, so further development is unlikely. The situation has not been clarified and the modules have not returned to the Russian store. Edit. by the way, reply from Chat GPT :

There are no plans, but it would be good to refresh the cockpit at least to today's standards of new modules.

For me its still ok. Give a feedback after few days of testing, thanks.

As beta tester? This mod wasn't released yet.

Check this trick, page before (my post). Do you have unparked cores? Windows 11 or 10?

Of course, it is difficult to assess in this case what the individual problem is. The solution is to the fact that after starting DCS and at the beginning of the mission, you can feel a distinct stutter, which is caused by something constantly loading. This is related to activating and loading subsequent modules, even if you do not use them. After a few minutes, i.e. 1-4 minutes (depends on hardware and kind of the disk), it goes away and this is the topic of this thread. When making a save or exiting, when DCS saves some data, it happens again, which is why it all takes so long. This is currently without this "fix". However, if you still have stutter, during the whole mission and flight, it may also be unfortunately some other issue, unrelated to this loading problem.

Also try just DLAA (AntiAliasing section), without any upscaling, i.e. without DLSS, e.g. DLAA creates some artifacts but overall the image is the best in terms of smoothing the lines.

Personally, I have disabled antivirus monitoring of the DCS folder and his exe files long time ago, so the problem still persists despite this. The problem is related to the fact that currently DCS unnecessarily loads everything it has (all activated by user modules/maps) which causes long loading, long saving and stuttering during the game as well as long DCS exit, this was changed four patches ago. I dont know about the idea and reason of this changes. We have a solution - given in this thread, but I wonder why it was changed since it causes a drop in performance.

Btw. We are waiting for a fix from ED, but this trick helps to bypass the exit problem as well:

Unfortunately, this is normal for DCS and you have to accept it. The solution is always to increase the resolution of the goggles to the maximum threshold when you start having problems with performance on your hardware. Also try the DLSS and DLAA settings. This is quite convenient but unfortunately the image starts to be slightly blurred and ghosting may appear. I personally fly with a resolution of about 3300 pxt per eye plus MSAA x2.

Not currently "all" commands in the main_autoexec.cfg file. I suspect that "all" applies to all modules, while "signed" applies to separate paid ones. I use "signed" and it works without any problems. All problems are gone and I don't see any side effects.

It was before, screen from the cockpit of the display.

Yes, this is good workaround. This is the first thing worth checking instead of drivers, memory, mods and God knows what else ;). However now it is: bkg_load_signed_plugins = true, we havent here "all". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Since I don't want to interfere with the original files, I personally recommend adding this entry to: C:\Users\xvy\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config go to autoexec.cfg (or create it), add this new line: bkg_load_signed_plugins = false DCS is back to normal (no stutters at the beginning, fast saving, even the exit is immediate ect). Btw. You can use my file as well: autoexec.cfg

It doesn't work like that. There used to be specific dates, meaning before the EA release there was always "hurry up, planned release date in 2 days" but that's been abandoned. Now we have "2Q" and a surprise but there's no warning that there will be the release with exact date and notice other than "soon".
