  1. Does anyone know what music is used in that video?
  2. Nice trick! On that "product page" one can see "get serial" only if he is logged in. Until then, only "buy"... And once you get serial, there is no way to get it again (if you loose it). It is not listed in product you bought, and "get serial" button is changed to "bought".
  3. I just wanted to buy DCS:Nevada but at the bottom of the page I found: On "My Orders" page I found I bought DCS:A10C at the end of 2010. So my question is: How can I get DCS:Nevada for free???
  4. Boston was playing LA a few days ago, and Bruins lost 2:9. I was watching the game and honestly, those two teams did not seem to me to be "balanced" at all. And yet they were playing (mostly) with balanced player count. You got the picture now? Two teams in DCS can be balanced even if one is outnumbered 1:2 (if one of the team has less players with considerably higher skill). That's why nobody is asking for "balanced teams". Just "comparable" number of slots for players...
  5. Anyone requested balanced teams? I did not notice. All we'd like to see is ballanced number of players in the case there are more players willing to play than server capacity allows... Would you find it funny playing 60 blue against nobody on the red side? Just being curious...
  6. You need 60 players to win mission with no adversaries? I'd say 30 could handle it too...
  7. Is it not possible to limit number of players for each side to make it a little balanced? It does not make much sense to have mission running with 45 players on one side and 15 on the other. If blue hold long enough, they'll winn because of sheer numbers, while many red wanna-be players are just knocking on the door, not getting any slots to play...
  8. Truly excellent event! Those who obeyed Greg's request (not to join all at the same time) could not join at all. Have spent 2 hours waiting for slot, then gave up...
  9. Not sure what you mean with "onboard intel 2500", but DCS needs DX11 graphics with minimum 2GB video-memory. Do you have it?
  10. How much vRAM does your HD5450 have? DCS 1.5 needs at least 2GB (minimum system requirements), but there were different version of HD5450 on market, with 512MB, 1GB, or 2GB vRAM. Otherwise it should work as HD5450 does support DX11...
  11. You do not need anything powerful, really just any "crap" with theoretical support of DX11. A friend of mine is running now DCS 1.5 on server with GeForce 610 in PCI-slot (not PCIe). That really *is* ancient crap, but with 3d off it is enough (just to display game-menu). Concerning Xeon, you do not have correct info. Even Xeon-cpu can have GFX-core. Your E3-1231-v3 does not have it, but i.e. E3-1245-v3 (for the same socket1150) does have "Intel HD Graphics P4600" included in CPU (otherwise is the same as E3-1231-v3). And because your mobo has on-board VGA output (which you probably use for ESXi-console), you could (???) passthrough this CPU/GPU-core to VM. I did not test this myself, but read about it on VMware forum. My CPU has GPU-core too. I do not use it and I was really surprised when I saw it in the list of devices I can mark for pass-through... Of course, I could not agree more with your last statement. So many years, and no dedicated server, that's a shame...
  12. Me too. But do not forget: 1.2 was still DX7-based (supported IIRC since vHW8 in ESXi)...
  13. Yep, you are right. But I checked his cpu (intel xeon e3-1231, can be seen on one screenshot) and it does support VT-d. Concerning GFX, any old nvidia 6xx (or 7xx) could work. They all support dx11, and one can find Zotac 610 models with PCIe 1x or PCI interface...
  14. You simply need 3d-card supporting DX11. VMware ESXi (even with VMware-tools installed in VM) does not support it, so you can forget virtual GFX. What you need is real GFX-card (hardware), and you'd have to pass it through to VM. Now three solutions come to my mind (except for waiting till ED releases dedicated server software): 1. If you have any more slots on your mobo (i.e. PCIe-1x, AGP, or even ancient PCI), you could use them for GFX-card. You do not need anything powerful, if you disable 3d (which as I heard should work in 1.5.x). 2. There are a few rather "exotic" external GFX-cards (i.e. for using with laptops), usually with usb-interface. Never tried them personally, but I've heard of them. 3. Depending on your CPU, you could pass-through to VM even in-CPU graphics (yes, it does work, at least with some Intel-CPUs). Now this depends on your hardware (does your mobo have its own on-board graphics for ESXi?).
  15. I'm not sure if my problem is the same, but it is very similar: I updated working (!) DCS from 1.2.x to 1.5.x, and now it does not run. All I see is "app has crashed" with these details: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: DCS.exe Application Version: 1.5.2.48726 Application Timestamp: 567c2fef Fault Module Name: dx11backend.dll Fault Module Version: 1.5.2.48726 Fault Module Timestamp: 56698831 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0000000000048559 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: d1a4 Additional Information 2: d1a44fed266b267a7c5dbda86a19be2f Additional Information 3: 6f8f Additional Information 4: 6f8fefd337de28b422d7f4864f5a682b Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288&clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt I thought I might have screwed something up during update so I uninstalled DCS completely and installed again, downloading and running DCS_World_Web_Installer.exe. The same result... I know problems like this can happen, but it really does not look well if app which used to be running suddenly crashes after (non-beta!) update. BTW before you ask, all drivers & OS (win7/64b) are updated, with all current patches installed...
  16. I always thought for "render3D" option you have to create new file "autoexec.cfg" in <username>\savedgames\dcs\config. That file was empty at the beginning so there was nothing below or above...
  17. Hi, is that old trick in autoexec.cfg still working with DCS:W 1.5 too?
  18. I think it is a bad idea to ban IP too. These days end-users only rarely have static public IP. Mostly it is still public but dynamic (assigned randomly from ISP-pool by DHCP-server) or even one from private IP-space with carrier-grade NAT implemented (traffic of the whole ISP is routed through a few public-IPs). If you ban IP, you might ban a few innocent users too (while original offender could easily find way to get different IP). I understand you want to get rid of some users, but banning IP might do more harm than good...
  19. Russian version confirms you are right: "...Управляемые авиационные ракеты класса «воздух-воздух» средней дальности действия Р-27П1, Р-27ЭП1 – унифицированные ракеты с пассивной радиолокационной головкой самонаведения предназначены для поражения радиоизлучающих воздушных целей..." http://www.ktrv.ru/production/68/649/665/
  20. http://eng.ktrv.ru/production_eng/323/503/506/
  21. "...The R-27P1 and R-27EP1 unified medium-range air-to-air missiles with passive IR homing heads are designed to engage radio-emitting air targets by day and night..." I'm not sure if IR-seeker can lock on radar emissions...
  22. Hi, I would like to use one DCS:CA on two computers, my gaming-PC and laptop. AFAIK, this is not possible with single license (correct me if I'm wrong) so I have to buy one more. But how should I do it? I have already CA, so should I buy it once again, using the same account? Or do I have to create one more account, just for this second DCS:CA? Is it not a problem if I pay then for purchase done with two accounts using the same credit-card, and if those two accounts will have the same address?
  23. Is there any way to contact forum-admin for user which has been banned? A user (my older bro sitting next to me now, if that matters) has been banned and despite of reading the corresponding rule over and over again he can not remember violating it...
  24. 3 days passed, and still no answer to my ticket. How long do I have to wait? 3 weeks, 3 months, or 3 years? Is *THIS* the way ED treats paying customers???
