Kdrum is talking about a HOTAS. You talk about and FFB stick that cost 700 dollar. Next to that there is no native FBB support from DCS per aircraft. Its just about the MOZA settings. I race a lot and all games i play have such different FFB: F1 2024 vs LMU is a WORLD of difference. And as long as there is no native FFB support per aircraft my opinion is: the hardware market is FFB ready, the flightgames are not.

Helios does not show viewports
Polar-eX replied to Polar-eX's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Hi Wostg, thanks for the response. Finally i found it. 2 things: 1) I did not know that i needed to add the viewport interface: that was the primary solution. 2) after a change in the viewport in the config tool , no matter if all interface statuses were green, the control center would give an error on the the monitor config file. Now i know that i have to close the config tool, open it again, load the profile, config the monitor, save and open the control center. Now everything works fine and i know how to create my viewports. Works beautilful!! There are many tutorials but this one got helped me a LOT -
Will more RAM improve my fps?
Polar-eX replied to slashxer's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Recently i upgraded from 2 x 16GB DDR5 5600 to 2 x 32 GB DDR5 6000 - with a I7 13700k - AMD Asus TUF 9070xt system. In Steam i viewed the mem usage and there was not a single game that used of the full 32GB My advice is to save the money and spend it on a better CPU / GPU which will dedicated impact on FPS. I tested in DCS / FS 2020 PMDG 737-800 / rF2 / GTA 5 -
Hi all, im having trouble with helios. I have watched many you tube videos but none give me the answer. Im flying the A10C II and i have two tablets connected via USB. I can set any instrument, bind the right out and input and it works. I can even show the MFD buttons and program these and they work ingame. But i cannot get any MFD viewport to show on the tablets. Resolutions and display positions are set. I have renamed the MFD's to the monitorsetup.lua...nothing.

DCS World steam edition 2.9.20.15384 wont start
Polar-eX replied to Polar-eX's topic in Installation Problems
You will always see: post a question and i find the sollution myself. I read the log and saw that DCS was unable to open a zip archive. I went back into my Bitdefender and saw that i set the option "scan archives" to on. I turned that option off and DCS started. -
Hi all, Suddenly DCS wont start. Problem: I click on play and login into the DCS launcher. After that the steam verification is okay and the loading screen just hangs and DCS wont start. What did i do so far: I uninstalled DCS completely and also deleted the saved game folder and another folder in appdata\local (or roaming). Reinstalled DCS, restarted my pc but same problem. Reinstalled Directx, X86 and X64 redist files, same problem. Reset my Bitdefender exception for the DCS drive: same problem. Im out of sollutions. Windows 11 64 bit - I7 13700 K - 2x32GB Corsair 6000 - AMD Asus TUF 9070XT .

Great work, thank you!

With the upcoming FFB market for flightsims DCS should work on this. Now MOZA is trying to give customers some linear fake forces. But with other big manufactures coming DCS needs to invest in native ffb support per aircraft!

DCS should integrate native FFB per aircraft, So should FS 2020/ 2024 with the upcoming FFB market for flight. Are there any plans at DCS for implementation?

Hi there, to begin with: DCS is by far the best simulator on PC nowadays. I just bought the F16 and the detail in graphics, physics and systems is mind blowing. On par with PMDG for Prepar 3D. Other than a PMDG Boeing 737, the aircraft and systems in DCS are very though to masterm, which is part of the fun Most of the people reading this post are diehard frequently flyers, having all content and create complex mission in a fingersnap. But for starters DCS can be a very harsh environment. And actually i am not talking about the learning curve of the aircrafts but im talking about the mission planner. To actually do anything with the F16 i MUST commit into the mission planner and honestly in my opinion this the the worst part of the game. As good as the arcraft and terrain are, so bad the whole "campaign - mission" planner is. The mission planner feels like a developers tool and honestly i want to fly instead of learning how to use the mission planner to get going. Now you will say: "don't cry, use the mission generator". Well, the mission generator lacks in options to setup the specific needs. Right now i want to learn to fly the F16. So i want to setup a scenario in which im confronted with one (1) oponent in dogfight, only guns, no BVR. And i want it that the oponent apears "somewere" with a 20 miles radius from me so i have to learn to use the radar. But to do that, i need to dive deep into the mission planner. And i have NO clue how to setup such mission. I have watched several you tube videos and they are sooo complex with 20 planes, 10 sams, different sorties, waypoint and stuff. I tried and every click something goes wrong. I dont know how to move my plane...i get a waypoint instead...that kind of basic things which are not logic for starters. I really hope the mission generator will be changed into more friendly and more customizable program in which you can set all parameters from drop down menu's to create a mission as simple as it can be and as difficult it can be. Flaps up

Transparent Control Stick for DCS: A-10C
Polar-eX replied to Blaze's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
This should be a standard option: Stick & Throttle visibility On / Off
