  1. They just don't post much on this forum. They are pretty active on FB. Here is their last pic of the week...
  2. New clouds would be welcome. but... They can't kill performance. and... They need to be in the same positions in multiplayer games.
  3. The updater can be used to switch versions without needing to move the installs. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030
  4. You proclaim the right to freely post what you want to say, while decrying what others post. Perhaps IRONY would have been a better callsign than EXPERT.:thumbup:
  5. Since the Open Beta versions have been getting groomed more before release, I suspect it will be a short wait. OR You can run this command line from the folder where the updater lives to switch your install; DCS_updater.exe update @openbeta
  6. LOL I don't think a transplant is required. More like a "Hey boss, how does this sound?":thumbup:
  7. I'm not qualified to determine if it's correct or not, but ED's CEO has flown one, so they have access to a person that should know. They are amazingly quiet in the few cockpit videos out there, with sound. It's still early access so I suspect the current sounds, and levels are not final.
  8. It's really too old to update properly, but if I had no choice... RAM - a match pair of 8GB DD3 1333 sticks - As far as I know, that's the best/maximum that mainboard can handle. What you have now, I would bet your last dollar on, is a pair of 4GB. Since the mainboard only has 2 slots, you need 2, 8's just to get to 16GB. Video - The best 8GB VRAM card you can afford, that will fit on that mainboard. SSD - SATA type - without a solid state drive load times will never improve. Go with at least a 480GB. A full DCS install with all maps is over 200GB with more on the way. It would be nice to get Windows running on it, but that's another story. CPU - I'll leave that to someone better informed. According to the mainboard maker it supports, 45nm AMD AM3 Phenom II/ Athlon II processors. The RAM and CPU are both old tech at this point, and might be purchased used, if you dare. New hardware often requires a new power supply if the current one isn't high enough output, or has aged badly. Good luck!
  9. I'm sorry to say your rig is under powered for DCS currently. The CPU @ 3.8GHz is ok. 8GB of RAM is the bare minimum. Small simple missions only, for sure. The R7 200 GPU is below minimum spec. The 2GB of VRAM it has is a big time bottleneck. I suspect you have a spinner hard drive instead of a SSD which doesn't help. Thus the long load times. You will need to run low graphics settings. A fixed page file might help. This thread explains doing it. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3724175&postcount=1 I wish I had better news for you. Based on the age of the rig and the number of things that need improving, I wouldn't upgrade the current machine. Time for a new one.
  10. I saw your other thread. sorry it's been such a pain. Edit your post above and attach a copy of your C:\Users\<yourname>\Saved Games\DCS World\Logs\dcs.log after a crash. The log won't help much to solve bad performance. Only after the crash. For that, you can attach a picture of your options screen on the system tab. (click the gear icon at the top of the 1st in game screen) Since we don't know anything about your pc a dxdiag file will also help. You can follow this link to see how to do it. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028644/windows-open-and-run-dxdiagexe While you wait for replies, in the Windows start menu, an Eagle Dynamics section was created. There you will find a "repair DCS World" program. Run it to make sure your stop and start install didn't create an issue.
  11. You didn't mention the supercharger in your checklist.
  12. It's possible already with skins. It's not easy to do currently, and the ability for others to see it requires skin file sharing in advance. Making an easy automated functionality for this is a tricky proposition. These customizations would have to be shared on pilot entry to a server, potentially causing lag, corruption, cheats, and other issues. Then there's the issue of inappropriate content.
  13. The tail wheel is controlled by stick position. Holding it aft of neutral locks it into a 6 degree limitation. Pushing the stick full forward will unlock it. It can bind sometimes requiring a bit of a dance to free it.
  14. July 15th 2020.... DCS MiG-19P by RAZBAM Weathered cockpit liveries are default now for English and Chinese cockpits Factory Fresh cockpit livery removed for now The resolution of several cockpit UV maps was increased to allow for more detailed textures New cockpit mesh and textures for several objects, including the cockpit gun-camera, the canopy locking mechanism cover and pipes. Added the channel selector for the SRO-2 Khrom IFF Small tweaks to cockpit night lighting ASP-5 control axis not working fixed. Brightness knob not working fixed. Corrected animation of gun arm buttons Added and improved gear lever and gear lever lock keybindings Added helmet visor command and animation (you need to assign a key) Added pilot wave animation when wheel chocks removed Increase nose up pitch moment effect with flaps Increase trim down required for level flight as airspeed increases above Mach 0.9 Improved behavior of transonic effect on vertical speed indicator I know we are all impatient, but it hasn't been that long.
  15. Once you deactivate a group, it's gone. You can't get that group back again. To activate again you need to set up a different group to be activated. Keep in mind There is a delay from the time a group activates and when it can fire a weapon. Think of it as a "warm up" period. A different way would be to turn the AI on and off. This will leave the groups units in place but turn them on and off. Another different way would be to switch the alert status green to red, red to green. This would leave the group activated, and the AI active, but control their permission to attack.
  16. For #2 If needed you can do the load again. If you hold one of the osb' you can change it to become a different option like load. Then re-do the load. You can then hold that osb again so you can switch it back to what it was.
  17. Cage should work if master arm is on. Try the default "c" key to insure it's not a controller button issue.
  18. Boresight it. China hat aft short with the TGP as SoI, assuming A-10C.
  19. How is it if you lower the gamma slider? I'm @ 1.5 currently.
  20. Open a support ticket. I don't think a forum post will get you very far.
  21. They did away with downloadable install files a few years ago, and went the "installer" route.
  22. Yep, been around for years. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/upload/iblock/98d/pic1.png
  23. The Air Force has officially placed an order for its first batch of F-15EXs, awarding Boeing a contract on Monday that puts a ceiling value for the entire program close to $23 billion. https://www.defensenews.com/air/2020/07/13/heres-how-much-money-boeing-is-getting-to-build-the-new-f-15ex/
