With great audio updates in the recent years I've noticed once a video gets to YouTube servers the audio quality takes quite a hit. I was wondering whether anyone has a tested workflow to retain lossless audio all the way to the YouTube upload grinder. I've got 2 ideas: 1. Switch to OBS entirely 2. Keep using nVidia for recording but record lossless audio with OBS 2A. Replace the audio track using lossless mode of VirtualDub or Avidemux Any tips? Any proven OBS config that leverages nVidia's technologies found in RTX 2xxx series?

Work preparation is what sets a professional apart

Whatever is planned I hope there are several British camos.

@LucShepI know, I just had to see for myself That's why from the beginning I was emphasizing 'GPU-limited'. CapFrameX is a golden tool. With its Compare feature you can check stuff with 2-minute benchmark runs. No need for prolonged mission recordings.

I've just finished benchmarking. TLDR: Same as in late 2023 HAGS and Game Mode are detrimental to performance on my system. The combination of HAGS with Game Mode Gives the worst results. The performance loss is relatively small. Here's an overview of the test track file

Thanks, @LucShep My RTX 2070 is leaning far towards GPU limited* so thankfully I can skip some of those. The rBar I have set long time ago. It's tempting to give HAGS at least two CapframeX runs. Shouldn't take THAT long. I'm asking again in 2024 because in 2023 HAGS was detrimental to performance on my system, confirmed with CapframeX. * after years with Lock on and then DCS I can say - %7$&!g finally!

Controller: You are correct as far as gameplay goes. With replay the inputs are already embedded in the track file. If the opposite was true no one would be able to replay your track without your controller. Just save as new defaults: The newly saved tracks is subject to the very same - Minute mouse movement triggers camera takeover - no more recorded camera movement. Mods: While I submit track files for bug reports with mods disabled, this is far fetched. With one audio and one shader mod... But what indicates it's not related to my mods is that eventually I did manage to get the correct replay. I only decided to post about this because this is the only track file I have with the behaviour. I'll try to acquire one without mods in the future for the sake of going by the bug reporting book. What was the estimated timeline for the release of the new track recording system, wasn't it 2024? PS. I just had to salvage that particular track. Those are some solid Xbox shots

I'm talking "not at all here". Besides, that's not how track files work as far as controller input goes. The inpus is recorded and set. DCS doesn't waggle your joystick nor communicate with the controller. I managed to replay it correctly. Apparently the following interferes with track playback: 1. Ass soon as I hit "Fly" I pause. 2. LAlt+C, LShift+F1 to set camera pos 3. Unpause and play to the end Now, with such a recorded mission the problems are: 1. Minute mouse movement triggers camera takeover - no more recorded camera movement 2. Often the whole scanrio is wrong - my plane is doing circles in the replay. Track attached. Unformtunatelly it's not non-modded. 190 IA dogfight Thunder FULL mission success 2 kills.trk Here's the 100% correct replay I managed to finally trigger

Forgot to say - I'm on Windows 10 and will be for a long time.

Those two settings always seem to give mixed results or were outright detrimental to performance in DCS. What's the current status for the two? Any other controversial settins that came to be useful in 2024? VBS would be one additional setting worth taking a look https://www.tomshardware.com/news/windows-vbs-harms-performance-rtx-4090 SPECS: Windows 10 1440p LG UltraGear 27GP850-B G-Sync Intel i3-12100F RTX 2070 8GB MSI 64 GB RAM Motherboard MSI PRO B660M-A WIFI DDR4 (MS-7D43) Key words: Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling

BTW, bluntly said, the initial implementation of warbirds audio was offputting. Now, SBX G6 seems to be one of the best long-time purchases I have ever made.

For the past month or two I mostly shot short nVidia recordings. Whenever I tried a track replay, nothing matched compared to what I did during the mission. And it's not "divergence with time". The recordings are completely different to my actions.

No problemo! I'm outa here, with my tiny jet negative vibes

I think your recommendations are more akin to Middle-Eastern "deserty" camos, judging by my quick search. This is what I meant

I never knew F-5E had a slap-on gun like that even though I built a 1:72 model back in the 90s. Maybe it was some gun-less variant, F-4D perhaps. And a cheapo kit, that's for sure.

Ah, thanks for the info. Now I know I haven't seen that issue because I own the module. To be honest I was just about to fire up a mission hoping I'd spot some improvements to the general aircraft 3D model...

Perhaps ED could do that if such option existed. No software implementation can be aware of the presence of a physical spring in a classic joystick. Have you tried the two non-FFB options in the Special F-5E-specific section of DCS settings? Check out my... Xbox controller takeoff compilation - DCS F-5E 80% MTOW - the Channel Ma... -

Early gun muzzle? Could you please add a word of explanation? Is it about newer vs older muzzles for the cannon or some English expression?

Which of the official liveries is the closest equivalent to the South-East Asia livery in F-5E module?

The model file F-5E-3 has been updated. I assume it's the external model. Any visible differences?

Version change has been announced. I expected a changelog. As in *I don't understand the recent flow*. No ranting on my part.

But nothing today despite status change?

Is ~ six weeks the new cycle?

@Doughguy Thank you for bearing with us! Looking good! Please do PM me a link to a WIP version if you'd like to make my evening furball session against Thunderbolts a little bit more pleasant
