That worked thank you so very much for the help

Hi No I was not removed from Discord. I did not remove myself from the discord forum.. One day I was able to chat. The Next day I was not. I got this odd requirement to render a cell phone number which I simple will not do. I will not allow anyone to harvest my information and sell it just to talk about a game that I have been playing for years with no problem. If I am honest... I feel like I am being targeted and or singled out and pseudo banned for no reason at all and with no warning... I have asked other members of the forum and they have not had this requirement asked of them.. most suspect this is a scam. I have never had to register a phone number with discord. Again if you guys are doing anti bot stuff then I am clearly not a bot. Also if this was something that you guys were going to turn on I would think you would give us users a heads up. Here is the information from discord It shows muted My Last ability to post was 12/11/2023 I was able to make 10,150 comments on that discord forum so this is not something that was required while I have been a member there. As I have written before this was targeted by someone on that forum or something rule change that was arbitrarily enforced I suspect.

Yes I understand that but I have been on that channel for years I am sure that something like that would apply to someone trying to join not some one that has been there and posted help and received help there for many years now. I have been on this DCS forum since 2005 so I am not a bot. When I Joined that discord there was no phone requirement. Are you also saying to use that there is ZERO option for email verification and that something that seem to be rolled out, out of the blue has cause users to be banned inadvertently? The other issue is that discord does not allow you to use voice over IP numbers. I am pretty sure that DCS security teams are not wanting or requiring users to go out and rent a number just to re-join their discord are they? I mean that seem to be the only options we have left is to rent a temporary number to get back in to dcs chat. If that is what it is please confirm thanks so much for your time

For weeks I have been locked out of discord because When I signed up I did not use a mobile number. For as long as I have been on discord I have never had a problem. Now I am effectively banned with no warning from the community operators that we would need to hand over our phone numbers to be on their discord. Can some one from management look into this for us users that use email vs telephone for verification. I would like to be able to stay in the loop on the Dcs discord. Thank you!

Yeah I can't chat on the discord server hosted for DCS. Giving it my home number is a no go. I am sure as soon as you give out personal information like that it gets misused and opens you up to exploits

Can any one explain why out of the blue the DCS' discord channel is trying to; what I can only describe as harvesting... why is it that they are harvesting or attempting harvest our phone numbers??? Are they selling our information to information brokers??? What is going on here? I have been on this forum or some form of SSI / EDyna forum for over 20 years... I got found out about the discord thing about 2 to 4 years ago maybe and never ever once on any discord forum I have been joined to or discord itself for that matter, did I have to render my phone number to use this service! Is this a scam?? Is this some new policy?? It has a real creep vibe I can tell you that much. I have never run a foul of the mods or been banned. Just could not chat one day and got the message below. Thanks for any insight into this matter.

Hi can you explain how you got it working? When Installed it the game would started in VR upside down... I found a post that said turned it off..(to be honest I did not know I had turned it) So I opened it and clicked deactivate the api and that got my vr image to be right side up so I gave up on it. I am shocked that you have it working. When I did first install it (by clicking on the msi) it does nothing... I tells me in red writing that I did not have a recenter key so It seems like garbage software. I go have a key in game set as recenter but when I press that key nothing happens. This software is pretty frustrating because of bad documentation. I shows joystick two at the bottom. As I said.. this thing has very poor documentation. Did you have another resource you used to get this to even recognise the game and joystick? Are there any video that show step by step how to get this nonsense working> Thanks!

Yeah I think we are kinda talking past each other.. lol as some one said to me that I had read the comments to make sure I was making sense... and maybe some one pointed out too... that the issue may be the way the F15C game jet is programmed. Any way take care and thanks for reading

So is it offical that it does not work.. I am trying to get it to work and nothing...

No guys... let me try this way ... a 97% (internal)fuelled game jet of the same sub class should not weight the same as a 17% (internal)fuelled game jet... right? Tht has to be an indication of something not programmed correctly right???

I'm not going to keep going round and round about. If you guys don't see the issue or see the problem that I see, Then its not a problem or and Issue. Thanks

I think you guys are missing the point... I think there is something wrong here... I don't care about the real-life weight of the real jet... dcs is a game so there is something wrong when I can put 97% of the fuel in the C model and 17% of fuel in the E model and their weight is the same. Pilot and oil weight are meaningless when we are talking about what is modelled in the game. From that picture above if, I am reading the information presented by the game editor ... something is way off. As I started in the first post in this room/ space. The game fuel load for the E model appears to no be clearing what the game calculates as weight in the Conformed fuel tanks. that is my best guess I don't think I am saying there is a problem with the game stating what they have programmed the weight to be, My point is that an empty E model in this game should not be the same reported weight as the Game's C model with 97% simulated fuel weight on board.

Ok from the Game The Game Jet F15E vs The Game Jet F15... this is what I had to do to get them the same in game weight to test in game corner speed. That just seems like something is wrong in the calculation and maths...

Where you able to compare the empty weights from the game? If the issue I saw on first release is still there.. there is no way that is correct either.

Set Fuel to 9% the game jet show it still weighs more than a Fully Fueled F15C (that cant be right) Set Fuel to 0% again the F15E game jet shows it weighs as much as a full F15C Assumptions: 1 this is not a bug and in real life these airframes have substantial weight differences 2 this is a bug and the game is calculating base weight of the game jet as having Fuel /Gas in the CFTs and that the game thinks the get is empty (when you play with the game jet (F15E)at 9% you trigger the low fuel warnings. Maybe someone can confim this. The weight issues was seen on first release. I have not kept up with DCS to know if there has been a patch or if the issue still exist. I will try to add some screen shots. If I find the issue is no longer there I will remove this post. Internet infomations shows F15E at Empty weight: 31,700 lb (14,379 kg) Max takeoff weight: 81,000 lb (36,741 kg) Internet Informations shows F15C at Empty weight: 28,000 lb (12,701 kg) Max takeoff weight: 68,000 lb (30,844 kg)

Issue : F16- Radios do not work when At nellis when ownship is set to client. F16 UHF set to tower: 327.00 PTT UHF Radio , Nellis does not show up on the menu F16 Autostart to ensure all systems are on correctly, Same issue. Set F16 To Player Parking hot, Same as above not communication no pilot voice. Make New Mission Set F16 to Autostart or Hot Parking Radios work.

Thanks. Yes I know we could do a thing with the mission editor. But the point was for it to be something special that happened to the map just because. Yes, we can put statics at the Airports to give a base the look of life and make trucks drive around... all in the mission editor. But the programmers can do that for use as well. They have an acurate star chart and Sun/Moon cycle built in the game. So adding a special neat treat for the user based on the clock and calander would be kinda cool. But again thanks for showing us how to do it... that was not the request. The request was to make something neat and special happen on the map should the user setup a night mission the Nevada map on that date during those times... I think some call the easter's Eggs

It would be a Nice To Have (It may already be in the game) But if not... please add a Hidden Feature That if you set the Date and time(21:100) in the Nevada Map, That A short lets say 5 min Fireworks display pops off over the Las Vegas Strip. Have it repeat lets say 4 times randomly between 21hrs and 22hrs. This Fire works show only works when the actual data along with the in-game date is July 4 20xx This means if a user just make s a July 4th mission and the actual date is not the 4th there will be no show. It would be really cool to drive a combine arms ground unit, or even fly a helicopter down to the strip Just an idea

Thanks I will give it a try. I do wish people would not use a tool like this get hub thing. It's the most confusing thing I have ever encountered. The directions make it seems like there are files and folders. But thanks I will see if I can make heads or tails out of the source code.

Hello All, Can someone tell me how do down load this.. When I got to that bloody awful gethub site... I can never find the download link... I see download source code... is that what we have to get? Do we have to compile the source codes????? Man they make it beyond difficult... Why not clear directions on what to click on and what to download... You would think a download button would be simple! Anyway thanks all

all good info to try for sure. I do have shimmers and jelly every now and again. I struggle to understand all these vr terms like scaling and Hz and rendering as mentioned in st4's post. This stuff seems so technical. I am just happy that it works

Some folks online showed me the option in task manager that lets you see you GPU... and there lies the tail. I had to tune dcs to fit with in those specs of the video ram. Have a look My GPU was on fire... blew the pc up... But when I turned the pixel density down from 1.5 to 1 bam .. all my values are in the middle of the graph...my settings are still semi high.. Shadow off sadly... heat blur low sadly. ground textures medium. Game runs smooth even with my spawned moose traffic at Nellis. Lots of stuff going on via the script and the game is smooth in VR now. Hope this help someone. Any questions I will be more than happy to help if I can. the pc is a Ryzen 7 2700 with 32 gigs of ram The GPU is a Nvidia 2060 with 6 gig of ram The headaet is an Reverb 2 Gen 2 Also watched this video to help me get open xr working

Do you fly on line Droopy?

lol what is a big newy??? Wait onpen VR is native? Dang I did all that configuration for nothing.. That's the issue I kinda have with DCS now. It's such a massive project it's hard to follow what is current and what Is outdated. When in vr it's just so shaky ... I can't even point the mouse to flip them switches. But when you go external its smooth. I need to try an empty mission. I try to have activity at nellis with automatic flights and commercial flights in the air coming and going via Moose scripting... The other day I attempted to do an instant action in the F16 and I mistakenly failed to change the map to Nellis and it sent me to Crimean map and their was snow in the game. My PC burst into flames and cause a minor disruption in the planets rotation is was so shaky. The PC was a total loss... I know the boys back at the factory are working hard to do their best with the game. So I will cut them some slack and maybe play something else until they get VR ironed out.

The Title Kinda States The POV. I tried following some of the guides which it is hard to know if they are still valid since the game is constantly changing. One question I had was do we users still have to delete these things called shaders?? (I am not sure what shaders are but you see them mentioned in guides with out details on what exactly they are and exactly why we have to delete them. The reasons seem to be lacking. There there is DCS repair does that do this clean up for you? Seems like deleting files the game is looking for s a recipe for disaster and a reinstall headache. But for me with openxr (switched from Steam VR) and dcs with the nivida graphics card and pc set for performance mode the game is a jittery mess of pixels ... a real horror show. I am using mix reality I am using a AMD CPU Ryzen 2700 with a ASUS B430 Pro4 Main Board with 32 Gigs of Ram , The Video Card is a Nvidia 2060 RTX and the VR headset is an HP Reverb 2 Version 2 I would love to know if users have issues as well. Thanks -Bones
