What about this? Probably reaches more people than the website
-
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.

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.

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.

Constant Stuttering Frequence since 30th of May update
SharpeXB replied to ejbhimself's topic in Game Performance Bugs
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. -

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. -
How difficult to take off and landing on carrier in WW2?
SharpeXB replied to ju8712124822's topic in Pacific Theatre
I don’t think angled-deck carriers existed in WWII. AFAIK the first one was the USS Antietam in 1952 -
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.
-
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.

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.

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

I think you’re looking for a different game. DAMS Digital Aircraft Maintenance Simulator As a pilot it’s irrelevant to you whether your hard flight the day before required the crew to work all night pulling the engines from your plane. Your job remains the same. Certain dynamic war servers (and hopefully the upcoming dynamic campaign) already track resources like fuel, weapons and whether or not you bring the plane back. But handling any more than that probably isn’t feasible or realistic. And ED likely doesn’t have the resources to add modeling every loose screw to modules that already take years to complete. And looking at the example of WWII with its extreme demands on materiel and resources, how hard the pilots handled their aircraft simply wasn’t a factor. Even severe combat losses didn’t affect the ability of nations to keep their aircraft flying or their industry running. Maybe in extreme cases like the final stages of the war for the Axis but the truth is they really ran short on pilots, not aircraft.

4K definitely shows dots, I’m using that and can certainly see them. But again the setting can just be exploited at lower resolutions and a 3 size option would just make it even more so. Off is the most realistic setting for these anyways.
-
I believe it already scales like that. “Small” is 1 pixel and “Large” is 2x2 pixels. So in Auto mode 4K dots are 4x the size of 1080p ones. Of course the system can just be exploited by manually selecting large dots at 1080p Most all the severs I see allow this manual setting. So when you play online just realize you’re visible to the other players as a giant square.

Although that was a very bad problem it’s since been remediated through BIOS updates. Those were introduced about August of 2024. So a new chip won’t have that issue.

The game froze and I had to cancel it running. dcs.log DxDiag.txt

Needing Knowledgeable Input On PC Build
SharpeXB replied to rwbishUP's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I never had any trouble from my RGB software. Corsair iCUE- 31 replies

Whew that sounds better. When mine crapped out that’s what happened. Everything crashed.
-
Did you own that 14900KF prior to the BIOS microcode fix last August or so? Are you aware of the Intel 13-14 series degradation issue?

Anyone visited the Imperial War Museum in London?
SharpeXB replied to cptmrcalm's topic in Western Europe 1944-1945
This is what the old Trench Experience was like. It was cold and had this authentic smell.
