Hello! I see that there is going to be a new standalone compatible with DCS? MAC. I suppose some complex modules added without cockpit interation with mouse. In one of the news points it says that owners of FC3 will receive big discount for MAC. The people that has FC3 has to change to MAC to continue using the planes inside FC3, in future DCS updates? Thanks and keep the good work!

Hello, I don't know if this is the right place and didn't find anything related with this issue. But I have 3 screens and see this since the update to 2.5x: https://gyazo.com/9f1bd3ecf6b88f74c540dcdb99f47ab1 I put my 3 screens as 1 monitor *3 in the camera settings, because I don't want the 3 monitors option deformation (which maybe is the right one, but I preffer the 3 Screens deformation) Hope it can be solved. Wasn't on 1.5x Thanks

we put the same idea, more or less: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=211965

Yes.. I would like to see those controls in a pilot. Why some people may ask? For me all is about inmersion. When I jump I want to be rescued.. and run to a safe place to be rescued.. beeing careful with patrols, etc... Or as Jtac I would like to crawl, knee down and point with my vector unit to laser the target, after I did the imposible to reach the area, after a parachute from a plane that inserted me... Or I would like to run to my plane from the offices when there is an scramble and they are attacking us... Or if they implement better controls with tanks, be able to jump out of our hit tank and survive in a match. Things that I do in arma3, but in a more basic level. Something like Titan, or just the way it was in Operation Flashpoint. The problem is, that yes, we can control our pilot with the hotas and pedals.. but is really the WORST control ever... And also the pilots are invisible to the enemy units (they don't fire at you). Well.. I suppose all the examples are imposible to make now for Eagle dynamics, but this is a wish list, and even just with better controls, I could be better inside the rol of pilot (even with same awfull animations).

The big issue that the DCS maps has is that they are huge in Hard Drive space. Prepar3D (old FSX successor) and XPlane has all the world with free terrain maps and free vector data to draw forests, rivers, lakes, cities, etc. They use autogen textures, and with ORBX the ammount of space needed for the full world is like one of our maps we already have in DCS, and for me the quality is supperb. Airports around the world would be just taxiways and runaways.. and maybe genereric buildings.... but later DCS would sell areas with better work. That way we could have the full planet and simulate full distance operations. My dream? Join DCS World with XPlane or P3D and make civil planes flying while in certain areas are armed conflicts... so civil planes could be in danger. All online, of course in the same server (thousands of people playing together). It can be done today.. but it would take lot of energy and time. Won't happen in DCS I believe. Another simulator that handles the full world is Project Outerra, but that one I think it won't come a reality in future.

While I know, this is not ARMA3, it is nearer than it was in 1.5, and the view in First person when we parachute is good enough. But the controls are awfull. Of course I would like a better control experience with ASDW and mouse looking and turning (strafing please)... but that would have no sense if it where the functionabiity as it is right now. Maybe if you implement knee down, lay down, crawl, shoot with gun, it would add an great experience to excape and be rescue... You don't have to make an ARMA3.. but something similar to Titan would be great: Thanks!

Here also asking for this. Come on Eagle Dynamics!!! it is not so hard to implement this one!!! With Daws I can save the situation, but I have to start again from base with the planes or helicopters... no good enough.

Yes!!! it seems that it is better. MUCH BETTER in latest OpenBeta. It is the old Multiplayer as I saw in the change log... Still produces the same fx as I described in my video, but instead of taking 12-20min to get inside of a server, now it takes 2-4 minutes into high populated servers. Keep the good work!

Win10 pro 64 bits without the April content update.

I wanted to make a video about what happens to me. It seems to me that there is some kind of bottleneck that when the more people is in the server, the more problems takes to load it... Hope it can be useful for Eagle Dynamics.

and still unplayable. ... latest open beta.. and still the same as the first open beta of 2.5. No fixes at all... and I believe they don't have any idea what happens, because it doesn't happen to everybody. 1.5 was great. 2.5 is a failure in multiplayer. Hope a fix (even slow to find it) Meanwhile the sim is parked... and already is parked 4 months.

Here, with the new release 2.5, installed from scratch, and, of course, with new saved games profile, still it takes AGES to load even a "quick" action of the A10. Maybe 5-8 min, even after the first time and loading the same action again. This is not solved for sure here. I think this comes with the problem in Multiplayer. It takes ages to load multiplayer and in a moment that I can put my name in a plane in the lobby, whit 1-4 fps to do it... the plane starts to draw 3D around the pilot.... and it takes 7-10 minutes aprox, to let fly the plane. Maybe in single player all the 1-4 fps and redraw of cockpit is done in the background.... so we (the people that have this loading times and multiplayer issue) have the same problem. Thanks.

Last update (don't know if this is release) and still with the same problems in multiplayer. I was able in 1.5 and in 2.5 I enter but it takes 15min to get in the cockpit while the cockpit is rendering from outside to inside at 1-4 fps. In single player no problem.. dcs.zip

Here it is. I had to move all the content of the DCS files to a SSD external (which is faster than my internal drive) and modify the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Eagle Dynamics/DCS World path value to new path) to make it work. I never had any problem with DCS 1.5x doing that also.. but in 2.5 it is "imposible" to fly online. Offline no problem. Thanks! dcs.zip

After this 4th update, I had today a 2gb hotfix. Still the same issue with multiplayer. 1-5 FPS in lobby and 10-15 min to enter the cockpit (if it enters, usually in 4-5 people servers). And the worst thing is that in the news letter of today, they say they have fixed almost everything and they plan to move to release if noone complains. These complains comes from some people since first release of Beta 2.5, and still no fix. In 1.5 was perfect.

The same problem. Prior this update I could join (waiting 5-10minutes at 1-5 fps) 1-5 people servers. Now nothing. 12gb for nothing. I play multiplayer. Not single player (which goes very slow loading but goes at least)

I could get inside multiplayer at least prior this 12gb last update. Was veeeeeery slow entering, with 1-3 fps while drawing the cockpit from outside to inside, but at least I could enter multiplayer and all was normal fps once all was re-draw. Now I am stuck at loading screen. I can see the lobby with all the multiplayer rooms, but nothing more. Once I enter I am stuck. So we go backwards and this goes worst..... and I am not very confident that this can be solved, because with this we are 4(?) updates-fixes to openbeta...

Yes.. I just put a post in the video cards issues posts, because I didn't find this one. For me also with an 980ti, the same 100% load.

Someone told me that the 980ti and another video card (don't remember the model) was loading in DCS 2.5 beta at 100%; And I tested, and that is right. All the time 99-100% load all the time. Just look around the forum to see if there was anyone with the same issue and didn't see. Another friend of mine with another 980ti has the same issue. Hope can be fixed to not burn our video cards!

Installed from zero the 2.5 beta and seems that the long loads are fixed. Still not short loading but something more "waitable". BUT the multiplayer is still buggy. Load it, and then on selection rol it is very laggy, but I can put my name in an airplane. Then I hit briefing and fly and it goes 1-5 fps. BUT I wait. I start with my vision without cockpit, and in 5 minutes or so it draws little by little the cockpit until all is "there". Then I start having normal 50fps or so, and I can fly. DCS in an SSD with an i7 at 4.0ghz and Nvidia 980ti that by the way, it is loaded at 99-100% all the time!!!!

Fixed all my problems installing from zero from the 2.5 open beta installer!

Cleaned registry and still long times. 4-5 minutes to quick flight with A10 in spring for example. I am installing all from zero with new installer to see if it helps. My system is i7 4770k at 3.9ghz, Nvidia 980ti 16gb ram and running in SSD. Usually the 1.5x toke me less than a minute to load everything. Also I am having imposibilities to enter MP as it takes more time and in menu to select rol it takes me ages as FPS are 1-5 fps. Once I can enter, still same FPS. Imposible to join.

Once I loaded the MP session, the fps goes to 1-3 fps. The lag is increible to assign menus. If I finally goes inside the 3D, FPS continues 1-4fps so imposible to fly. In single no problem 50-60 fps.
