It’s more the inconsistency between maps, so for example I have a preset in my settings which i find is the best compromise between looking good and smooth performance, with the reverb I find the moment it drops below 45fps the experience is not enjoyable. So maintaining 45fps is paramount. Maintaining 45fps is no problem with Normandy, Channel, Caucasus, PG, Nevada and to an extent Syria (although the draw distance with that map is off with VR, it looks blurry at distance even with high setting, I appreciate that’s not an ED remit) but the potential to add a little more anti-aliasing of some sort would be really welcome. However the same settings with Mariana’s and South Atlantic, and Sinai when flying over built up areas is completely different and is unplayable, and even if I set say the VR preset with those maps it is still unplayable. Adding units also really slows gameplay, I hoped MT would help with this but I found with MT it stopped the wobbling clouds and made them look a lot better but I have not noticed much improvement in performance. After about 8-9 years I’ve Just got to the point where I would like to see some performance gains with VR. I still love DCS though.

That’s great news. I’m really looking forward to this update. I’ve spent so much £££s over the years on VR and rigs and DCS maps and modules, just want a little more performance and things looking just a little nicer. Would be great to get some VR updates.

Will this have an effect on VR though?

your skills would improve Normandy and channel maps, amazing work.

Visually it’s that and a slightly longer snout with the two underside antennas. Otherwise like you say I’m not fussed about the system differences. It would then look great with the fantastic RAF skins the community does.

So forgive my ignorance on this subject I have a Nvidia 3080 just seen in that 2.9 will likely gain DLSS support. So will this be an option you select in options graphics settings? Will it improve Anti-aliasing in VR? Will it improve VR performance? Any knowledge would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Does this module have a 1st person in cockpit pilot body? Could someone tell me? thankyou.

I don’t know much about the team doing the Tornado, I hope they can see it through, I do have some doubts, for me Razbam is my favourite developer, I play solely in VR and I feel Razbam get it right with detail/clarity with their cockpits, not over rendering and putting in too much wear, they also see the importance of details like 1st person pilot in the seat. They seem to care about the VR user as well. But anyway I’d love to see Razbam take on the Tornado if it didn’t see the light of day, someone said about the Jaguar, yes I’d love to see an RAF version of that. I absolutely love the Razbam harrier, I think they did a great job on that, just wish we could have got an RAF version personally. If they try a Helo the Westland lynx, I always felt that was a great looking copter, would love to try that. If they were to try a WW2 prop I always feel disappointed we never got to see the P-40. I did actually try it out in VR at a Duxford airshow when VEAO were close to its release. It was actually looking pretty good visually inside the pit. But DCS has come on a long way since then.

Thanks a lot. That would be really useful

I may be wrong but it’s giving me good impressions in VR, I think it’s reduced the shimmering edges and the switches etc look clearer and as a result more genuine looking. I’m not sure if it was your intention to improve its look in VR? Either way I can see you’ve put in a lot of effort and I look forward to seeing the final version. I’d be interested to hear anyone’s else’s opinion on this Mod in VR. when you do the fire lights is there a chance you could make them so they work clearer in VR?

I thought they put out a roadmap of features for the F16 and they were going through it in a systematic order after people voted on what they wanted implemented priority wise. Have they been doing this with the F16 features?

I guess we would need someone with lots of talent to either create a GR7/GR9 model or someone to use one that they have purchased. Either way its a lot to ask and would need someone with a passion. There is a great sound mod from the low level warning of an RAF jet someone has created. I was also able to change the Agm-122 edm files and swapped it with the Alarm model. Works the same and looks great. I tried to add BL755s to the weapons inventory of the harrier but couldn't. There are some great RAF skins out there for the Harrier though. But agree with you 100% a cosmetic only mod to add the GR7/9 model to the existing harrier would be so welcome. The cockpits of the AV8/GR7/9 aircraft are very similar.

Even if it’s an ED issue as well HB still have a responsibility to chase and rectify the problem working with them. Iron Mike: Thank you for the reports, guys. MT sure hassome flaws still, we will iron them out - if ourside, and work with ED to fix what is DCS side.

Ok, so after lots and lots of head scratching, try when you get into a mission either restarting the mission with Ctrl+R or exit to the mission editor and restart mission. It seems like the mission needs to be loaded 2-3 times then it sometimes works. If the mission is loaded first time screen is black. Which is why the instant action missions don’t seem to work.

I'm guessing because not many are using the MT version? Its frustrating because its intermittent, if I try quickstart missions for example it doesn't work, then I tried taking off from runway in Caucasus and its working, I set up a carrier place the F14 on deck and still working, save the mission. Load it another time its no longer working again. I've tried to find a specific reason as to why it breaks and I cant find it. I'll keep trying. I have both standard and OB versions installed. It never works in the standard version but I have Mods installed on that for example the F14 cockpit mod, so that could be a reason. But my open Beta version I run clean with no mods and occasionally like I said I get the TCS working but its very intermittent.

Are you looking into the VDI/TCS not always working in multithread?

Been driving me mad that I cant get ILS working in the F15E. Followed tutorials one after the other and still cant get it to work. In the end I realised I just was not receiving an ILS signal. Despite turning up ILS volume nothing is heard. Then I remembered years ago having a similar problem in the F16, and in that case there was a problem with ILS signal and wind speed set in the ME above a certain speed. Re-adjusted my mission and got rid of wind and sure enough ILS signal is loud and clear and working and I can use it. Could you have a look into it Razbam. I haven't looked into it enough yet to determine what wind speed settings you can have if memory serves me correct the problem with the F16 was anything above 6kts but I will try.

Thanks I shall try this

Hello, could someone please explain. I know how to select different waypoints using the UFC but if I select a target, for example I fly to the IP then it hooks up the target, I can’t then select a waypoint after. I am fixed on the target the hud symbology etc has the target still selected. How do I go back to waypoints? thanks

Thanks I took your modded canopy glass folder renamed it and put it in the mods/aircraft/p51/textures and it has overwritten for all of the skins. They look much better.

Just done a full repair of OB. Got rid of all extra files so all my skins everything. No mods running. Definitely not working.

F15E module is fantastic. Razbam have really shown what they are capable of with this. Love the F16 but the Eagle has more features and feels better atm. I love both but its F15E for me.

Hi I've downloaded your great work but on only two of the skins the ones listed as new does it have the clearer canopy effect. Is there an option to apply this to the other skins?

Listening to the air combat sim podcast. Got some insight into the effort and work that’s gone into the F15Es pilots. The animations are also a wonderful addition, I think their hard work should be appreciated with some good feedback, I think it’s wonderful. Thankyou Razbam team.
