Been messing about a bit more, just for my own curiosity. I havent looked at 1.5 or 2.0 but in Normandy the msaa seems to impact quite a bit on my rig fps wise, even at 2x. So I turned it off and went into the nvidia control panel and set up some stuff there, call it placebo, but it seems better. Anyway above just for info purposes. The map runs great.

No, 1.5 is here http://imgur.com/ExwvvB1 I started off there but then started fiddling to get 60+near the ground in Normandy. So they are quite different now. Need to fiddle a bit more with Normandy and get the shadows settings on, which are set to flat now. When thats done I will probably try those settings in 1.5 and 2.0 as well.

Great video Jabbers :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Thx Jersey Island

Early morning over England, Isle of White and Needs Oar Point field.

Excuse my poor video rendering but this is with the above settings and runs just fine for now.

I did some tweeking this evening and scaled back aa and msaa which was set at 16 and 8, probably overkill but thats where it is in on the other instals. Anyway, moving some things about and changing a bit here and there, there really is no issue personally, it runs just fine and I can get 60min over terrain no problem. Just free flying. I hit the default medium settings from where I was and tweeked upwards from there. This is where I currently am/ended up, still wip. I can still scale backwards quite comfortably and the game still looks fine to me. Will post a freeflight vid a bit later, can't get the Spitfire mirror to work, anyone else? I don't normally fly it so may well be doing it wrong.

Yup, looks the same in the alpha release in the mission editor I put a 6 pack in my cockpit of my L39 and flew across the channel to Isle of white. There are airfields well modeled in that area of the map (without navigating properly not sure which but assume the ones you see on the pic). No massive port or anything in Portsmouth though that I saw (but I was about 3 beers in thx to my imaginary trolly dolly) I then headed east all the way hugging the coast right up to Manston. Its all there from a 'basic topography' perspective. No white clilffs as such, just slopping green land in the Dover area. As you fly over manston (technically off the map a long time already) you see the map pretty much end.

Thanks, yes I also picked up on the shadows thing. Have both set to flat now and it looks fine, actually less flickering on the ground objects and stuff. I also aim for 60 on the ground. The map runs perfectly fine just need to do some fine tuning. Thx for the settings, I also today saw , was it Nirvi, posted his. Will give it a whirl after work. My aniso and msaa are also cranked up and can come off quite a bit i think. :lol: With the amount of Spielbergs on these forums I would be embarrassed to post my B grade minute movies.

I'm still messing a bit with the graphics settings tbh. The alpha normandy map is not running as well on my machine as 1.5 or 2.0 does. I dialed back to medium settings which is fine and am working up from there. Run at 2560x1440.

Have been all the way to Manston from Isle of White for fun although the map is underdeveloped the further east you go.

Its a standalone instal, completely separate from the other dcs versions (for now), but I have been buzzing around in my L39 a bit.

It's really very cool and a refreshing change, wish I had more mission builder skills though. My want to do essay far exceeds my skills sticky note :)

Im useless but heres some foreplay

Ahh ok, have a separate asset pack key but if it takes the first one twice thats all good.

yup, only used the Normandy Map Alpha Access key on both occasions., not the Normandy map key I have.

Well installed, got asked for activation Normandy Map Alpha Access, inserted key done. 3 of 3 Installed some modules, asked again re- inserted key, 2 of 3 ?

Wags and them did a good job with revamping this whole lot, I'm sure that everyone that contributed will have received an email notification. Anyway, 2gb to go, getting there. :)

I see 2 250 tiers with 15 and 43 backers

Seems everything above 140 has map alpha access? https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=126712

Yes, sry I edited the post above, I just counted everything above $140. Apologies Anyway 7gb left to dl, tick tock. :thumbup:

you mighta skipped over the $250 backer count which is 43 backers? EDIT: ok sry reading the description there it did not stipulate early access. So not sure, i Just tallied everyone over the $140 mark, apologies

Heres the original KS page. so 146

Yes but only for backers of the original project from a certain level/tier.

Thanks BigNewy :thumbup: Ok then same drive different folder it is then, as with DCS and DCS Alpha currently on my machine.
