Have you downloaded the latest video drivers? Are you running in SLI mode?
What OS are you running (32/64, service packs,etc)?

Happy Birthday Matt! And thanks for all your hard work and excellent producer notes.
-
1) Is it possible with triggers to have enemy choppers or enemy FARPs call for help from fast-movers?
2) Are there AI-controlled Harriers in game? Can they land at FARPs or non-airfield locations?
Thanks,
-
Thanks for your hard work Matt!

I've personally had no problems running the RC on either XP or Vista regionalized to English.
My Regional setting were Croatian. RU FC wouldn't start even if I change into English. I had to change into Russian, and so had to be done my two buddies that also have RU FC.I think when Wags says "RC", he means to the Release Candidate of BlackShark.
So, while you may have had to change the language settings for FC, we may not need to worry about it in BS. (here's hoping :))

Are there ever occasions when ground vehicles will pop smoke and take evasive action?
If so, when does this happen?
Thanks,

[developer speak]
I wonder if they have 2 code paths in source control, and have been checking in the Blackshark changes into both paths all along...
Or maybe both engines are modular enough via interfaces, to simply plug-in the helicopter code into the new engine (unlikely).
[/developer speak]
Not that I really know what I'm talking about, but I don't think they would have to totally re-code the chopper portion in the new engine.
-
What about troop insertions and SAR? These are also better suited to helicopters than plane, and are part of modern warfare.

Welcome SunDown. Thanks for the wise words.

Yeah, that's true -- Lockon only had a few, large updates. I wonder if this will change for DCS.
And certainly I would want the option to _not_ auto-update, or to download but not install. (similar options as Windows Updates)
-
I see in the FAQ that new aircraft will be released approximately every 9 months after BlackShark.
But there is nothing in the FAQ about subscriptions or automatic updating. I would also like to know if ED have considered this.

Say that you had to do an emergency startup of the KA-50, and had to navigate to a distant FARP, in the early morning darkness, with no external lights.
What parts of the startup could be skipped, and how would you navigate to the FARP?
Let's pretend that none of the waypoints or INU points were previously programmed.
I assume you could start the ABRIS while you are flying and use the map to find the FARP? Would the ABRIS contain the cities in the area, so that you could avoid overflying them once you crossed into enemy territory?
Do FARPs have radio beacons?
-
I believe it will show as a joystick. So you just map the axis and buttons inside Lockon/Blackshark.
Also check out the A-PAC controller from Ultimarc, and my SIM Panel tutorial (in my sig):

Yes, thanks Fred. It can be a less-powerful card. Your main video card does all the processing and most of the rendering.
I figure that if you can afford 3 monitors, and you're looking at buying a triple-head gadget, then you can afford a $50 video card.

Your link to the UV Plus+ product doesn't mention if it will work with games/directX/OpenGL.
As fred99 mentioned, Software Triplehead by Kegetys is probably the way to go. The software is free, all you need is a spare video card.

From the FAQ:
Q: Will DCS include a dynamic campaign system?
http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?end_pos=718&scr=default〈=enA: The initial DCS campaign system will not self-generate missions. However, it will consist of any number of phases, which can include any number of missions. The player will move forward or back through the phases depending to his mission performance. When combined with the mission editor's trigger system, it can provide high replayability value and a sense of player impact on the campaign.
I too would like a fully dynamic campaign, but I think what they have planned will be much more interesting that the scripted missions that we have in Lockon.
Cheers,

Happy Birthday

edit - Oh, I see, WAV or OGG only... not sure if OGG is streamable, but I dont think so :(
"Ogg Vorbis is easily streamable. Icecast, our streaming audio server, is capable of streaming Ogg Vorbis to players like XMMS, Winamp 2, and foobar2000."

I think both of the download links are bad (albeit, this message board doesn't make it easy).
Try these:
