Nobody seems to bother, so I thought I have a look at the ATC in 2.5 last version….. And yes, I know it is still beta. And I know that for some planes one should use easy communications off, but if there is an option easy communication, it should work, as it does for about the half of the planes. All tests made with easy communications and in Nevada, so with mostly payware planes and scenery. The radios obviously always on. No station reply, not working: Viggen BF-109 F-86 FW-190 MIG-21 P-51 Spit All stations reply, working perfectly: A-10C Harrier F-5 Mirage Mig-15 SU-25T Sometimes the text appears in BLACK, and sometimes in WHITE, regardless if it works or not. Does anybody know why? I believe the atmospheric pressure should be given QNH and not QFE, or am I mistaken? And anyway, it is given completely different for similar height airports, like Nellis and McCarran. Or also depending on which plane you are. Screenshots included. Please advise….:cry:

Indeed... So, for me, for the time being until they sort this issue out, is deferred shading off. I fly mostly at dusk, and I don't mind the trees, as I use mostly Nevada. And anyway, 90% of the time is spent inside the cockpit, and it seems that most people agree that the majority of the cockpits are far better with DS off.

Yeah.. a Donkey Kong game from the 80's had HDR sun effects and shadows in the cockpit.... So then what? Switching DS off for the night flights, switching it on for the day again, each time waiting ages for the shaders to rebuild? No way... I'd expect a solution from ED and developers for this problem, which does not only concern the free Caucasus, but all the payware sceneries and planes.

Of course OFF! And not only for VR. Performance is not an issue, but, as you say, the cockpits and their illumination at dusk / dawn night are far superior with DS off. And where do we spend the most of the time? https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=202460

Exactly.

Well you guys, just switch that DS off for the time being as I do. I think most people agree that the cockpits are FAR better with DS off, and anyway this is the place where we spend most of our time, and not outside the plane looking at the nice trees and scenery. Moreover, the sun blending effects are also far nicer with DS off, as DS does not allow HDR to be on.

Indeed... and you have to load / activate the liveries dialog every time you start model viewer. It used to be not so..... Al in all, quite a cumbersome program, needs much improvement. But I guess they have their hands full with all the issues in 2.5.

Well, I haven't had any memory leaks lately, after the latest patches and hotfixes 2.5 xxxx, in spite of the disappearing objects in Nevada, and the freezing Mig-21.

Ground objects disappearing after last update This might have been already been reported, but anyway, please advise... Ground objects disappearing after last update. Screenshot refers to Nevada Groom Lake and my settings

Okidok....

After last update the MIG-21 completely freezes DCS After last update 2.5.0.15184.338 the MIG-21 completely freezes DCS. Only its sound is heard, no actions at all possible. Happens in Nevada and in training missions Caucasus. Logs attached, please advise. DCS-Logs.zip

Today's patch? Wich patch?

Too much some. DS stays off here until it is sorted out.

Hi, You need this: https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-texture-tools-adobe-photoshop In the screenshot my export settings, these work.

Please explain.

Hmm.. I will believe it when I see it... This very annoying "feature" has been part of DCS World since... Ever...

So it HAS NOT BEEN REMOVED... He is speaking about a patch which is not here.

Removed it?

Good question! Maybe ED will be so kind and give you (us) a reply?

"A little dark" ? More Pitch black with wrong night lightning I'd say..... And my Monitor is a professional one, calibrated and properly set.

That might be true with your oculus, but with a Monitor I believe it is not... The cockpits and night lightning are awful...
