  1. Replacing the CPU fixed the problem.
  2. You can save and load profiles to import these from one module to another.
  3. Also in the Hornet and M-2000
  4. On your new computer you will need to update the hardware ID settings in the joystick .lua files. Have you done that? Redoing your control mapping is easy. Your old assignments are saved here: C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\Aircraft\joystick Make sure you save a copy of your Saved Games DCS folder when you upgrade. Go into any aircraft in your new install and assign a button for a controller, it will create a file like this: CH FIGHTERSTICK USB {8D539500-AD1C-11f0-8001-444553540000}.diff The bolded text is your new hardware ID, using Explorer simply paste this onto your old files when you copy them over. Modifiers are stored here: C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\Aircraft\modifiers.lua Replace this ID local modifiers = { ["JOY_BTN16"] = { ["device"] = "CH PRO THROTTLE USB {2796EE60-F354-11ef-8001-444553540000}", ["key"] = "JOY_BTN16", ["switch"] = false, That's all!
  5. Relevant for this market. PC gaming. And Steam isn’t small, according to this it holds 70% of the share in digital distribution. https://sqmagazine.co.uk/pc-gaming-market-share-and-usage-statistics/ So their sample size is more than large enough to validate those results.
  6. Because it’s the most relevant survey here. You just cited it yourself. Whether 2-3% of the market makes something feasible for Linux support is anyone’s guess. In all likelihood that’s not enough. You can see products like Microsoft Office, iTunes or Turbo Tax that sell huge numbers of copies and yet apparently aren’t profitable to make for Linux.
  7. You could still map the roll axis to the rudder anyways and activate that with a modifier button just to use on the ground.
  8. The normal option for those without rudder pedals is a twist grip flight stick. I suppose it’s possible to map your rudder axis to the stick roll axis with a modifier button and use that when taxing. That would work. For any non FBW aircraft you’ll want an actual rudder control though so a twist grip is still better.
  9. How does an actual survey of tens of millions of PC gamers not matter? That’s literally what anyone should be looking at here. It’s much more valid than asking ChatGPT

    The orange one. The black one is the updater.
  11. That research is easy. The most relevant survey for PC gaming is right here: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam
  12. I use W11 and DCS in Full Screen mode. I’m able to cycle through any open apps by using Alt-Tab and then return to DCS in the normal way.
  13. Again that’s not the number that’s relevant to PC gaming. It’s not a matter of liking or disliking. Simply a fact. Overall many people use OSX too. But in this market sector that number is 1.91% https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam If you like using Linux that’s fine. But thinking it’s going to replace Windows or reach any significant share of this segment is really farfetched. It might be hard to believe from inside your echo chamber but the vast majority of people probably just don’t care or understand your gripes enough to justify switching.
  14. For the PC gaming demographic that matters here, it’s 2.68% https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam
  15. Well I have a free CPU coming so if that doesn’t work
