  1. How would the game filter unofficial content? The only thing it could determine is On or Off. And again if you’re just looking for a way to encourage or popularize the use of these in the online game that’s a No-Go
  2. Since unofficial mods are unofficial the game wouldn’t know what they are in order to filter them. There could be an overall mods On or Off mode but I wouldn’t want the Devs to spend their limited resources on mods one way or the other.
  3. Optional or not, the problem with this suggestion is that it gives unofficial mods an official treatment. Trying to make it easier for players to put things into the game that will break it. The reason you don’t see enough people joining your server is most players are savvy enough to know that these mods aren’t worth the trouble they cause. Encouraging their use in MP and popularizing them through in-game features would be detrimental.
  4. Please no. What you’re describing there seems like a horrible mess. Unofficial mods cause too many problems and I don’t think very many people want to be forced to deal with them in order to play online. If someone wants to use these on an individual basis that’s their choice. But trying to go too far encouraging their widespread use is problematic. Frankly what you’re asking for can already be done so I’m not sure why ED would need to be involved. A mission briefing could easily include links to these mods. And there is already a User Files section on the DCS website for these. But again I think you will find most people aren’t interested.
  5. Well no amount of money will make VR perform well, so… better stick with a monitor. Personally I wouldn’t spend a huge sum of money on a screen that wasn’t an OLED. G-Sync support is also a must-have feature for any high refresh screen IMO. It’s possible that Nvidia cards will support FreeSync on some monitors but in my experience it didn’t happen.
  6. Why would it matter if this wear and tear state was persistent between missions? It’s not relevant to the game role you are playing as a pilot. Unless you’re simulating someone flying an unmaintained aircraft which never happens.
  7. No not really. The beta testing is just all closed now instead of open. There’s no such thing as “Stable” and “Open Beta” anymore. Just one public release version.
  8. I think you’ve got it backwards. They dropped the Open Beta or kept the beta testing internal to ED. The public release is a stable version.
  9. I don’t think angled-deck carriers existed in WWII. AFAIK the first one was the USS Antietam in 1952
  10. This one in my sig. Absolutely perfect! https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-48gq900-b-gaming-monitor
  11. Yeah but DCS doesn’t give you taxi instructions. If a server inhibits your external views and your plane location you’ll be unable to find your way. Again I usually see this enabled though. In SP if you like “fog of war” and the ability to get lost there’s always the external camera when you’re on the ground.
  12. You can already see this on the F10 map like is shown in your example. Nearly every server I see has your aircraft symbol enabled, likely for this reason.
  13. The “expectation” of the feature is in how the Auto mode functions. I believe it draws 1 pixel for 1080x1920 and 2x2 pixels for 2160x3840 (these sizes would be equal). The manual adjustments are what they are, they’ll always be exploitable or egregious if applied to a lower resolution. Honestly 4 pixels in 4K is still quite large. 4 pixels in 1080p is gigantic. If you’re starting to realize what a bad system this is… you’re right. If you want bigger dots in SP there’s always the dot labels. I believe those are configurable any way you like them.
  14. That’s June 1st 2025. That’s correct. Everything is running fine now. I just did a repair and the trouble hasn’t repeated. Why are there two of these? My install of the game is from after ST was discontinued, that’s what the installer set up. In any case it doesn’t seem to matter. Honestly I don’t think the analyzer hands out the correct advice. It just says this same thing for every log. Core parking is already disabled in W11 running the high performance power plan. Game Mode really doesn’t affect anything. Same with HAGS. Plus I run other games so messing with the machine just for DCS isn’t practical. Disabling core isolation isn’t a good idea as it’s a security risk. Those graphics tips don’t make much difference either. Or I just don’t like the effects. None of these make the game crash or not. Thanks
