Alt gr and Alt right is the same thing. most keyboard ( include my Black Widow ) dont have them at double. so press Right alt+2 when you record them and its ok. what happend is maybe you have a conflict between CH control manager and the ingame setting... try set nothing in CH control manager and do them directly in the game.

I confirm for pedals (rudders, or nosewheel steering), keys are X, Z, or X, Y keys ( depending the keyboard layout, Azerty, Qwertz,Qwerty) ). in case you have a doubt, Option > controls, choose A10 real or sim > Flight control.

A bit different for PCI express 2.0.. The motherboard slot = 75W a 6Pin external connectors ( from PSU ) = +75W a 8pin external connectors ( from PSU ) = +150W if the card is around 80W TDP, i dont think too he need to be powered by the PSU .

A little suggestion, if in future you plan to upgrade a little bit your PC, you can find decent card starting at 140$ ... HD6850 1024mb, or for a bit more around 170$, GTX560 - HD6870 AMD start launch his new series, but the middle range will not be there before 02/2012 and high priced, for Nvidia they are really not ready to launch the new series ( early report say March, but after CES, it can be moved even further following rumors ). Try look maybe sometimes on E-tailer or shop, Nvidia / retailers will certainly decrease older series price, same for AMD gpu who will empty the last in stock for make some place on the new serie. Ofc the problem is too, your CPU is really dated ( first Intel C2D series ), so dont look on high end gpu models, the cpu power will be far not enough anyway.

Completely agree with you, i have a little bit mix CUDA and PhysX .. for PhysX, well as many ( including the developper of PhysX for Ageia, who is now working for AMD, Bullet, OpenCL after have been the project Manager of CUDA and PhysX for Nvidia ), proprietary as it is, it run to his death. There is not and there will certainly never get any game who use PhysX for "physic simulation " outside a bad graphism enhancement ( who can be made by any other "game physic " engine. ) Even if one day PhysX is used on AMD GPU, i can bet, all will be made by nvidia for promote their gpu's. Not sure it will run as it should on other GPU's. (PhysX is more a marketing point for sell gpu's, instead of a tool for increase gaming quality )

The big advantage of OpenCL, it is you can use the calculation done for CPU and GPU, offload what you want, as you want at anytime ( the instructions set stay the same ) or let the engine choose what suit the best for do it within the time rendering frame. Its not like PhysX who basically was running before really bad on CPU (CUDA and PhysX use basically x87 instructions who have disapear of CPU ).. Nvidia have annonce open PhysX soon ( need say it was needed as go in a computing conference, and see even peoples who use CUDA all days for scientist work and computing who are on good mood for OpenCL ).. additionally the new version is more compatible with cpu and so open more "interaction " with it. Still we have not see any project use this new version. But yes offcourse, this mean rework the engine for include this. This will not happend magically, as you open a layer API. Well it will be even more effective, when computing will use the " virtual memory space ", ( allready in GCN, the AMD architecture on HD7970 ), basically a virtual memory space can be done between gpu and cpu memory, both can stock and access directly data there, the GPU memory can use any x86 instruction, C++ etc data... for graphism this will specially be used for extremely big texture. For computing, this will change many thing.

look like they have forget to download it .. :megalol:

On my computer this is incredible smooth, not cause the gpus ( forget SLI or CFX for it, there s no profile and the result are really bad , so single gpu ) so a simple 5870 with a good 2600K + 8gb of memory, the result are really good.. completely smooth and i can tweak the graphism for enhance them, But dont watch the fps, just look the smoothnees... as i was said 40fps in this simulator is not what you will see smooth in other games, but in this games, a 40fps minimum is extremely good )

30fps in this simulator is not a so big problem, even with an I7 2600K @ 5ghz, all maxxed in the settings ( with mods for terrain textures and higerr visibility ) ..... im not in the 60fps all the time .. the CPU and the memory available have a big importance .... if you can have allready a x64 OS this will be a good thing... the game ( its not a game, its a simulator ) is incredibly tasking for your cpu and memory and have been made for x64 OS system first .... but dont expect to jump to 100fps then. even at lower resolution... the fps ( the framerate ) is not option to look there, ther thing you look is just you are playing smoothly .......

The problem is Steam, they take their time for put the last version ? seriously, dont be worried by this, your steam version have a code, this code is accepted to be applied on direct download from ED. download the version, apply the code ( if needed, in my case it was not even needed as the register file are still intact ).... then use it as a dvd installed game or as you have buy the game in a box .. no worry to have. Steam is excellent, but you need to understand, DCS A10C is not the last Batman or the last Modern Warfare, they care less of games producers who dont sell 1 millions of copy in 2 days.... You have buy the game, and you can play it without steam, with the same code, dont wait after Steam, and just Download it, install it, and play it.. ( call it a game is a bad words, this is THE simulator )

they said when trying to move the reticule on the HUD and Maverick ( they was still not understand the SOI and SPI ), joystick basic maybe for fly, but not for use the hotas for the tgp and maverick.

And they was play with keyboard only .... It remember me when i was really young and with my friends we was behind an Atari 1040ST and was trying to play some games .. heee try to press this, no, not this one, maybe this one ? or maybe the other, try, no the other left one, the right ? ... how it make a sound, it make a sound, you think it is good? .... heeeu maybe the other one so .. ..

lol.... poor passengers... @Zenga, yes i love too this view, remind me a lot the switzerland too .... And a big thanks to the guy who have done this skin, this is one of the most pefect i have seen.

I think i have non stop laugh for 10min... seriously i have stop when it have become to hurt in my stomach. Hoooo, its hopefull he start by the seat harm..

For this mission, just use the steerpoint named HQ... SPI this steerpoint tyou will find them easely.

If you want i have some basic ILS fog training mission ( Batumi, Senaki, ) Sorry for the quality, they are taken from a fraps video i have done for ILS fog

For Baltic, i can say without worry this is THE most realistic simulator never made. the choice of use this plane, the A10 is an excellent choice, this plane is a legend, but specially it fit perfectly between fun and complexity to fly with it. have all the avionic working for you is a real challenge, but it is really rewarding at same time....

Excellent job ... was a real pleasure to watch .

No its common in Fast edited mission generator, the JTAC just tell you what it see, but other AI aircraft and Apache attack your target, so the time you are ready to "engage " target ( remark, readback etc ) ", the target assigned is allready in the way to get a missile from an other aircraft or the target is destroyed ( or a part of the group you are assigned to attack )... it can start to be really annoying after the 3th. it seems Jtac communicate only with you ( dont take in account other AI flight, and dont communicate to them he have assigned you this target ) .. At the moment the AI have start an attack ( not forcibly launch a missile ), the jtac pass the target you attack under " not needed, m8, you are too late " . " Abort Abort Abort " ... then he give you a new 9line

its the correct keys, but you need press it "long" ( this mean 2-3 second at min. for make your target SPI ( designate the target ) ) When it is done, you will get a line who appears uppon the box as in this example ( photos from the manual ) I add a Hotas chart, where it is explain the different function and specially the short and long difference for each function and situation. ( really sorry, i cant remember who have made it, but it is surely in the wiki ) A-10C_HOTAS_CHART.pdf

I think the problem come from the monitor you are using, cause put your nose at 40cm of a Plasma, and you will clearly see the problem with sharpness lol .

TV and monitor dont use the same technology, and are not made for be viewing at the same distance specially..... Dont forget a 50" TV have the same resolution of a 23" monitors ( 1920x1080 ). The difference is even bigger with a 30", 2560x1600. About v-sync, well just try. Personnally i found to see more tearing with Track IR enabled as without... just cause the movement of the head in the cockpit surely.

oups, sorry, wasnt know you allready saw where to look at. Enter 37T or 38T ( if you want 37T or 38T) and press the key on the left of the line who contain 37T

5870,, no problem with 12.1 preview ( dont make a mistake with 11.12 ), and in general never get problem whatever is the version used. need say i have not try the 11.12 yet. Attention, the 12.1 is a beta preview driver, specifically online for 2 reasons: the HD7970 (GCN architectures ) who will be launch the 22 december and show / test new features in CCC. ( 7950 should arrive the 9th january )

I Pause track IR, but only when i smoke a cigarette, otherwise it become crazy. :D Anyway back to AAR, well i use the x52 and totally aggree with Speed. if used with default curve, it's a real pain, im sure can be used to it after a while, but you correct or too little, or too much. It miss of sensivity for this type of things.
