Hey Lefuneste. I am on VR now and decided to give your mod another try. It is quite strange, it seems like the label masking feature is quite fiddly on my setup. It was working the first time I tried. However after a while (not sure what I changed sorry!) it's not. I made sure I uninstalled the other shader mod (the performance one), yours, removed the shaders and reinstalled yours but it is still not working. I'm running out of ideas now :) Anyways I really like your NVG implementation! That is what made me install it again :)

[REPORTED]Steerpoint auto mode goes backwards.
cuervo111 replied to cuervo111's topic in Bugs and Problems
Here's a track. You can see how it jumps to SP1 instead of SP3 after passing SP2 autosteerpoint.trk -
I was using the AUTO steerpoint change today, and it seems to move to the previous waypoint instead of the next one. So after SP2, it changedto SP1. I changed it to SP3, and after arriving it changed to SP2. Am I missing something here or is this a bug? Tested on the current beta.

Great stuff! I was very surprised by the red flag campaign addition that was a really nice touch. Thank you!

Any news on this? I just had that very same issue at gudauta

@jozeff yes it is my first VR experience (well not counting trying a super primitive thing decades ago as a kid at a fun fair). I've read a few days ago about a guy that used the CV1, S and Reverb and he said that the jump from the CV1 to the S is much higher than from the S to the Reverb. I do not doubt the Reverb is better but I think the best option for me is waiting maybe a couple of years for a next gen and see how things are looking then. I can't really justify hundreds or thousands of pounds more for some extra image clarity to myself tbh :) Having said that I won't lie I am quite curious to experience DCS and other sims in higher resolution! Good luck with your Reverb

Hi ED, Under certain conditions (I don't know exactly which) clouds appear bright and completely white when flying over them at night. I thought it might be related to the moon but I was just flying this mission with no moon and they still appeared white: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1459407/ This is quite a frustrating issue for me because as you can see here it was reported 2 years ago and I still found the same problem today: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=198021&highlight=white+clouds Please @NineLine, or someone else at ED, can we at least get an acknowledgment about this? Has this been investigated? Any tips on how to solve it? Hope we can figure it out because it is honestly quite an immersion killer. Thanks

Hey guys, sorry for not replying earlier and thanks to all of you who gave tips. I'll give an update in case it helps someone else in a similar situation. I am now a happy owner of a Rift S. I decided to try it because of the friendly returns policy, unlike the Reverb that apparently only admits returns if it is defective so at least in the UK there doesn't seem to be any way to try it before committing. I found the Rift S really though. I understand clarity is not as good but the overall experience is great and there is no way I am going back to a flat screen now. I'd say resolution is just at the bare minimum for convenient flying but I can read the instruments so that was my personal red line. Regarding performance, it was pretty bad with my pc as it was with frequent crashes and I got a Geforce 2070. With it and the excellent VR mod it is quite stable. I know my CPU and possibly memory is still a big bottleneck and might consider an upgrade this black friday, but to be honest, things are good enough to enjoy flying at least for me.

Thanks guys, I guess I should really consider a PC upgrade . Decisions decisions :D

Hi guys, I am finally considering getting a VR set, specifically a Reverb because the reason I didn't get into this before if resolution and image clarity limits. My current PC can handle DCS on a flat screen quite nicely regardless of its age and I am actually happy with the performance as it is. However, I am not sure if I will have to make a big upgrade to it. As long as performance is comparable to what I have now, I'd be happy. I guess I could get a new GPU along with the VR set but I am not sure how much sense would that make with an old CPU. Running some quick tests, GPU is around 70% active and CPU is actually quite relaxed around 50% with pikes to 80% or so. I find this strange, since I am sure better hardware would give me better performance... Shouldn't I expect it to be 100% and struggling to churn out those pixels? My specs are: i7 4771 @ 3.5GHz, 16GB DDR3-1333 9-9-9-24, GTX 970 4GB GDDR5 Any tips or experiences with a similar rig would be appreciated. Thanks :)

Nightstorm it'd be great if you provided one with just the MFD reflection texture removed! :)

[CORRECT AS IS] Maximum RPM at high altitude?
cuervo111 replied to cuervo111's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
I noticed it's dependent on airspeed, which kind of makes sense. Are other jets in DCS having this behaviour? -
While trying the Viper I realised that around 30k ft the max RPM is around 95%, both with and without afterburner. This happens both in today's beta as well as the previous version. Is this the expected behaviour?
-
I agree, I find them annoying, it's a big immersion break when you realise it's just a bitmap. I'd prefer not having them. The screens in the Hornet and Tomcat look so much better

Hey lefuneste, quite excited to see you are working on this again. However the 2d masking is still not working for me. The plugin seems to be properly installed because the zooming functionality is there. I also see a strange effect while zooming normally now. There is a portion of the screen black at the right of the screen that becomes smaller until it diseappears and goes back to normal in about a second. I tried with the huey. Maybe I am missing something?
-
Thanks for your answer! Yes I tried it with the Huey because I saw your screenshot. I tried to use lalt f10 and also changing the default in the settings file so I guess it's something specific to non VR rendering? Out of curiosity, are you a 3d graphics developer or something like that? Pretty awesome stuff, regardless of this issue!:thumbup:
-
lefuneste, the label masking is one of the best ideas I've seen in DCS in a long time! It is something I wished we could do for a long time. However it is not working for me :( I am NOT using VR. I updated the drivers. The lighter cockpit is working so I assume the mod is correctly installed. Any ideas about why that could be? Could someone confirm it is working for them without VR (well, or not working)
-
I was very critical of some stuff with the MiG in the past, but I must say I am very happy to see issues being resolved and the module moving forward. It is a pleasure to fly it again. :)
-
Hey guys, I'm enjoying learning the Tomcat immensely. Amazing module! A small detail I found and I think it's a bug. Shouldn't the cover for the ASYM LIMITER move the switch back to the ON position if it was OFF? It is not happening right now.

MiG-21 used to be my favorite ride... can't stand it now

Ah interesting! Thanks for that Кош!
