Thanks Blaze. wonder what the attraction will be then? Will just have to wait and see, I guess :pilotfly:

Yes, I'm very much looking forward to it, like with A-10C I'm happy to wait til it's ready!

Thanks for the link, I was looking for standalone - d'oh :doh: So I guess I can just download and install the DCSW files, and leave the P51 beta install for now

Just wondering, will I be able to see FC3 pits in the glory of 6DOF with TrackIR5?

Sorry if I'm just being stupid, or ignorant (or both:)), where do you download DCS World from? Right now I have BS1, BS2, A10 plus LOFC2 and will only get P51 when it is no longer beta. I read in another thread I will need DCSW for the next patches of BS and A10, is that right? Cheers, Ratfink

Just a thought, but maybe a "Fuzzy PID" control method may be more suitable than a basic PID. It could help to provide more stable response if you need to take many factors into account. Fuzzy logic provides a kind of percentage-based way of applying 'IF-THEN' statements, which can combine to produce a more 'human' like approach. You can apply it to PID to make it adaptive, and provide some autotune :)

I had this when I first got my X52 Pro in Jan. I found some advice on Saitek forum to keep profile names less than 15 characters. Never had a BSOD since.

I had a 486DX2 laptop during uni days (1996 or 97) that ran X-Wing pretty well. Then in 98 I think got myself a PIII 450Mhz / 128MB RAM / Riva TNT from Tiny Computers and it ran Falcon 4.0, Gunship!, Apache vs Havoc, Comanche vs Hokum, Jane's F/A-18.

Next patch? Any news on the next patch? What will it include? When will it be released? Etc

I was there, when "Big Beautiful Doll" sadly was lost

Could be that I'm just out of practice then :doh:

Is it me, or is the helo in BS2 harder to control than in BS1? The trim seems whacky too. Need to keep stick forward to maintain hover right after takeoff

Try turning off 'HDG SEL' on AP panel (right hand side)

I'm in! Thanks

Just discovered the joy of watching (using F6) what happens to some BTRs after releasing a CBU-97 SFW on them using CCRP :thumbup: Just like Mac off "Future Weapons" said!!

I now have the X-52 Pro that I picked up 2nd hand, and am really happy with it.

Hiya mate!!

not sure why, but I've always used Sitting Ducks as my benchmark mission

I take it the answer is no :music_whistling: For one, I'd like to be able to look down in the 3D pit and see some legs, and hands on the stick, etc. Like you could in BS1 with Rshift+P It's a bit disconcerting to look down, and my body is missing!

Thanks WarthogSmurf, but I was thinking more if there is a setting in the IFFCC or somewhere.

Is there a way to increase the size of the symbols in the HUD? The default size is not a problem for me, just wondering if it can be done.

I used the X52 Pro version from page 4 of this thread, and from SST I got BSOD "Bad_Pool_Caller". After a quick Google, I discovered the solution is to keep profile names to less than 15 chars. When I renamed it to "DCS A10.pr0" it was fine.

What problems have you had? I just got a X52 Pro last week and tried the SFJackbauer profile with the Pro mod. The Saitek SST gave me BSOD "Bad_Pool_Caller". Then I read somewhere the solution is to keep profile names less than 15 chars, so I did a 'save as' to "DCS A10.pr0" and it was fine. I've since made my own, just posted in this forum :joystick:

skullcrusher, I suggest if you mention your game settings it may help. I have Core i5-750, 4GB RAM, HD5770 1GB, Win 7 64-bit and it's smooth and stable for me and around 25 fps in campaign. Off my head.... 1680x1050 Textures - high Scenes - Med Water - low Shadows - high HDR - off Mirrors - off cockpit shadows - off Vsync - on 2x AA
