whitehot

I had noticed it in a vid, some time ago. Platypus, if u look at the pic carefully u'll see that the radar cone is offset from its longitudinal axis, by some clicks towards the bottom

I wonder if you 'll ever be able to forgive us - sometimes the temptation of a little whine here and there is high - specially for an issue that would have been spotted running it only once.

great vid man!

I find it really awful too. I was hoping they would release an hotfix soon, due to the horrible effect it does on the simulator, but nothing so far. Can't say I'm all that eager to fly, at least not as before. ED please fix this.

as I said, I have absolutely no antiviruses, I may be out of time and place but I don't believe in that kind of software in the slightest. Moreover, my puters only have one user account, and it's got all the admin stuff ofc.

as personal preference, I prefer country names used realistically. That said, having fictional names used instead won't change in the slightest my determination to buy content.

yup, it's exactly what I did, and things got right. Nonetheless, I reckon that it could be a problem that more folks could have had besides the two of us. Wouldn't like a situation in which one has to reinstall all the mods after every update.. :(

It's true, I checked my options again, and noticed that the customization option is available in all the mods, except the Mig-21. In regards to the activation, I had to reactivate as well, and lost one activation due to the update. I hope they fix these problems, and some others in a hotfix or something, right now is rather messed up.

it's strange, I still have the customization options after the last update. Maybe you could try a repair?

I have no antiviruses, as a firewall I use the free Comodo suite. The link you provided is reachable with no problems with the browser. thank you

happened to me that the cockpit of my Mi-8 becomes in chinese. Can't describe the joy. Anyway, go to the options and change the settings for "cockpit customization"

Here are both autopdate_log.txt and autoupdate_log_old.txt In regards to repair, yes: I tried doing it, the program has performed like my installation is ok. autoupdate.zip

ok, logs are attached. I've reinstalled almost all of the modules manually, using the module manager, although itself reports error downloading data. Anyway I hope that the logs can provide some insight on the problem Logs.zip

updated last evening, today I started up DCS, ALL the mods I have are not working - launching a mission with them results in having the F10 map view and no way to get into the aircraft. Activations seem fine, at least: checked the status on the websites. Yet I surmise that all the modules need to be reinstalled one by one?

I have absolutely no issues and DCS is at the best I ever saw it - fps are great with all the eye-candy enabled (bar depth of field, but that's a problem with the sim, not the configuration). Also, I was thinking to overclock my cpu when I first got it, yet it's doing so well @ 4.2 (base freq should be 4.0, in fact with turbo enabled is 4.2, so I just set it to stay enabled all the time) that I have no need to do that. In fact, I capped the fps at 120, to avoid unnecessary power consumptions. All in all, it's a great gaming cpu imho.

thanks mate; the problem I had was just the one you described. Setting the capped selector to 800 makes the agl pods work correctly. This helicopter is really awesomely rendered in DCS - having this kind of "issues" only shows once more that the devs did not compromise on realism, writing this simulator.

here you are, hope i managed to photograph all the needed equipment. In this situation, pressing the trigger does not make the pod start firing. thx in advance for your help

it works. thanks for the fix!

I wouldn't take that kind of data for granted. Utilities that measure cpu load seem very inaccurate to say the least. My old i7 960, OC'ed @ 4 ghz, gave me ~40, sometimes 50 fps on average. With a Skylake i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz it normally stays above the hundred. CPU load measuring utilities basically said the same with both the old 960 and the new 6700K, with an usage not going above 50%. ofc, both systems used the very same video card, a msi 970.

All settings maxed out, xcept depth of field turned off (major fps impact in external views, although is something owed to DCS being unoptimized and not to GPU performance). @Frosty - yup, I read around that the display could be "overclocked", but I don't feel very confident doing it as afaik, many folks bricked their screens after trying that.. I think I'll just keep it as it is, and then get Oculus Rift when it finally gets real. Also, being it a 16:10, 1920x1200 display, it has a higher resolution that most screens around today (up to 2560x1440), which is something I value much.

I'm currently playing this mission and it's hanging just like for Platypus. I destroyed the jeep and now orbiting forever.

I guess that an upgrade would just mean an improvement in your minimum fps. I can say that with the specs I have, my fps stay between 120 and 50 (minimum I saw was 48 ). Yet I capped the fps @120, and I feel it is probably OP as my monitor won't do more than 60.

to me it is. Ofc there could be some additions, especially going back in time. Mig-17 and 19 for example. Maybe the SU-7, an aircraft that has seen much action in several conflicts worldwide. The SU-9-11 and 15 interceptors. Also the Mig-27, since it's already present in DCS as an AI plane. Hope that with the release of stable 1.5 both ED and the addons developers start dropping new AC on a regular basis.. :smilewink:

wait a sec. I'm no pro rotorhead, but are you saying that having the pedals disconnected from trim is the unrealistic choice? I always thought that the contrary was true, both in the Chicken and the Eight - that in rl choppers the trim (or force trim) is only applied to the cyclic, with the pedals not influenced by it.

The Flogger would be a welcome addition for me. Is it still in the plans of LN, or they botched it definitively ?
