DLSS @ Quality Renders 66% Scale, so that's why the text isnt as crisp.

The new pilot is still wip, templates likely would come after the model changes are finalized.

Download from the 1st post, Extract and overwrite the old EXE File. There is no Auto-Updater at the moment.

in 2016 we were still on 2.0 Alpha and 1.5 Beta w/ Oculus 1.3 just being integrated in April. A feature request was made in 2021...

please attach the apps log files, so I can see what's up.

AFAIK this isn't new, This is essentially the same as making a custom monitor profile for Helios etc. ( lemme re-phrase, it is, adding the line allows one that uses Helios Profiles to continue using the same profile while using VR.) The only thing the "VR_allow_MFD_out_of_HMD = true" line does is allow the monitor config to render the MFD Viewports overtop of the mirror, like when you run a 2D Screen. You Set "VR Window Use DCS Resolution", set the res to all of you displays as normal. position the MFD Viewports as normal. (or just use your previous helios setup and monitor config). You then export that part of the Screen to your MFD screens as normal..

Not all mods are simply cut/paste into the saved games folder, there are literally millions that modify existing files or replace them altogether, Creating an engine to not only manage and remember which files are replaced to cleanly uninstall them (and restore originals), as well as modify files and un-modify them, and to look up updates for mods installed and download them from at least 100 different mod depo repositories not to even mention mods that don't report to repos,, etc etc. This is beyond the scope of the app's purpose, not to mention time to maintain such an engine/app.

Re-reading this, I have a console log of over 25,000 Lines right now, and there's no lag induced by that. and that only happened because I turned off the auto backup function that saves the log and clears the console if the .log file exceeds 1 MB. What you maybe experiencing is the Lockout I put on Some functions (Incl. Build Switching) while a scan is already in progress, to prevent threads from merging and overlapping in the same memory space. in the future I may look into a way to terminate active scan threads, clear the memory space, and allow the build to be switched. If you look through the logs you'll likely see: MM/DD/YYYY | HH:MM:SS TT | SCAN | A Scan is Active MM/DD/YYYY | HH:MM:SS TT | SCAN | Please wait for scan to finish MM/DD/YYYY | HH:MM:SS TT | SCAN | ################################ The Slow Logging when switching builds during the "Modules Scan" is harddisk I/O and System Caching, 99% of the time, if Deepscan is off, it takes < 2 Seconds for me, and I have EVERY module + More installed, Every few days or so I get one scan that takes ~5-10 seconds, due to HDD cache or I/O. Even if I removed Logging, the scans would take the same amount of time.

At the present time No. - Conflicts in the Code prevented it from working when integrated into my app at the code level (likely because 2 different languages are used, and the conversion is not 100% able to convert functions). - Supporting one Mod Manager will cause the problem of having to support all mod managers and there are at least a dozen. - Originally I had gone the route of just using my own MM setup, but that would require the millions of mods to adhere to my system, and that wont happen either.

Right Click the Log Window. ( Ooops Mis-Read what you asked )

Because the Sim Folder is incorrect, Should be the \DCS World\ Folder. I'm saying I have no data to facilitate any type of investigation as to why that happens to you. Contrary to the forums beliefs, I'm not Psychic.

If MT Binaries are detected, you click the MT Enable Mode on the Top left under the launch DCS Buttons and it will say "Multi-Threading : ON" The App Generates a User\Appdata\Local\Skate_Zilla_Simulations\DCS_Updater_Utility_url_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx folder based on System hash. the only time it would make a different folder is if you changed hardware, windows hash, folder or memory address of the app. You can browse these folders or click the button on the app settings page to open the folder, and locate the user.config file from the previous hash and copy/paste it into the new folder. I can't control windows generating a new hash, that's client side. now if the new version is opening the user.settings to upgrade it, then wiping it, that's another story, but I have yet to see this happen in a end-user scenario, the only way I've seen it happen is by forcing it to happen through a process end users dont have access too.

attach the apps .log file please. once i can verify it works w/o issues, I will change the MV function to launch the MT MV if MT is enabled.

Model Viewer in MT Doesnt Work, Try for yourself, it will fail to launch. (Launch \Bin-mt\modelviewer.exe) Considering the Move the MT was to separate sim and Render Threads, with MV your only running the render thread, so there's really nothing to separate.

Right Click Slot, Set Build Path.

Its a false positive, you have to put an exception for it. MS is looking into it. as alot of apps recently have been reported as the same trojan. Despite being safe.

DULU Doesnt work with Inputs, However, One could make 2 instances of the entire \Config\Input\ directory, 1 for 1 set of controllers, 1 for another and swap them out manually

Block III's haven't even reached IOC, Neither through new airframes or the Depo Upgrade program. You have about the same % Chance of seeing a Block III as you do a F-35C in DCS.. The Visual Difference from the front, don't really do it justice, The Super Hornet is larger, has more sophisticated control surfaces and control systems, Despite ~90% Cockpit commonality from Lot 20->23, the DFCS is completely different due to the removal of dedicated speed brake, and the addition of AoA Dependent control surfaces.

Lot 21, 22, 23 were LRIP But also retained most of the Legacy Hornet Lot 20/21 Systems as they were meant to be transitional jets, (~90% w/ Lot 20 C/D), However there are undocumented changes to the QC-DFBW System, most note-ably how the channels are managed, as the new system auto trims for damage, failures and changing aircraft weight profile etc etc. There's also changes in the UFC and the Data and SOI Master Program, which is also not publicly documented. Lot 24 were Full Production runs w/ modifications from the LRIP group. * Anything after that is classified, and you wont see the manuals required available to the public. * However the non-public changes to the SOI Master program and DFBW system would make it hard for ED to integrate them, not to mention changes in the weapons programs, as the SMS is also adjusted due to canted pylons clearance rules, and wing loading/weight limits. Lot 25 had the updated displays, new Processors and moved from SCS-OFPs to the new HOL-OFPs. Lot 26 is the start of Block II, though shipping delays with the APG-79, had them being delivered with the old APG-73 until units were procured and installed in the field or depo.. Lot 26 Has the redesigned forward fuselage frame, ACS Was Integrated w/ ability for WSO to have a de-coupled cockpit, 8x10 Display, Updated networking and modems, DVM, AMC&Ds, as well as new RWR and Countermeasure systems (ALQ214), As far as Lot 20 Charlie vs Lot 23/24 Echo, You'd Lose all the Unguided rail / tube launched A2G munitions due to the Canted Pylons and the restrictions APKWS was not integrated anytime during Block I roll outs. You'd have an Increase in drag, lower overall top speed, the 2 extra pylons and more fuel are the only increases. Your basically getting a less capable heavier draggier airframe that looks similar in the cockpit, but flies completely different.

Anything Pre Lot 26 has Coupled Master Modes, so you're WSO would be doing the same thing you are doing,

The manual needed for weapons system is not public, Even if ED wanted to assume the systems are the same as the Lot 20 for the Lot 23 Super, they would still need to source reference the documents. It's a literal technical tip toe situation.

It looks like it's hanging on the build scan after selecting the build during startup and closes out due to an exception, It doesn't say what part of the build scan in the log, as I did not break down each section to catch sub exceptions, but likely something in the UI, if it's closing the entire app. the next line in the app is supposed to reflect version numbers of the .exe files for DCS, Updater and ModelViewer, so there maybe file/folder issues. I do have more exception catches in the latest internal builds, as I have re-ordered a lot of the loading and startup scans, hopefully that would fix the problem on your end, if not it will give more details and I would be able to accurately pinpoint it.

There's still the ability to launch apps via pre-launch scripts.

Can you attach the app log file after it closes? I havr narrowed down and adjusted some startup code due to desync of threads causing exception crash.
