Did you try desktop mode and ensure DCS is not full screen? -
Wow, awesome work as usual Tom!! Just noticed in that last screen there, some distance between the texture of the bullet hole and the shadow, looks strange?

Thanks Ether

I'm testing out on SP to see if it is packet losses and an MP issue.

Thanks for this Scorpi

Was a pleasure flying on "Dave" with some of you last night. I think i'll leave the combat skills to someone else and just play the SAM pin cushion game that I think Beach took a few screenies of ;)

First the disclaimer - I'm not talking on behalf of ED here, I'm talking from a fellow developer point of view and over 21 years making mods for games and sims. Without going into any detail, to be able to develop tools for the normal mod maker to be able to use simply is a quite a feat in itself. Think about the core elements you need to get a new plane into the sim: 3d Exterior model 3d Cockpit model Skins for both Switches/buttons/dials/MFCD coding Well the first 3 have been released in the EDM tools so at least work can be started on those (if you have 3dMax 2008). The 4th is a tad tricky taking all that coding into a simple UI that a modder can use. It's one of those tie ups between do you want the product developed and patched or do you want the tools to make your own stuff. In this case the egg must come before the chicken, or is that the other way around :doh: Demongornot, the terrain editor has been out for a very long time and half of the stuff you have written about can be done with the EDM tools. I've been modding for Lockon for the past 6 years and found ED/TFC to be very very helpful if you ask the right questions and build the relationships. Just my opinion of course.

I AM SPARTA!!! Oh errrrrrr yeah Dave is better ;)

Most ISP's run on a 10/1 ratio for down/up speeds. Well they certainly do here in the UK. I now have 100Mb down and 10Mb up. Prior to that I had 50Mb down and 5Mb up. But of course this depends on your ISP so best to check with them.

This morning, I spent time with the Gatwick Flight Simulation group giving a 30 minute presentation on the Virtual Red Arrows, the HOTAS Warthog, Cougar MFD Panels and DCS:A-10C. They then had an opportunity to fly with the VRA Boss on a local phantom server and flying DCS:A-10C trying out the Thrustmaster products. Future events, like this one, by the Virtual Red Arrows will be posted soon. Chris

Great job ED/TFC -
Cheap Saitek X52 Pro Joystick?
Ells228 replied to killersurfer501's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
The pro has less wiggle around the centre. I found it better for formation flying but wouldn't notice any difference in combat stuff. The pro does feel better IMO. I have a standard and pro sitting in a box doing nothing gathering dust since I'm using the Warthog now. Am willing to part with them if you're interested. -
Hey Sunshine, You will need the LOM export tools for 3dMax: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=18234 Is it a building, ground vehicle or aircraft?

Good luck tonight to Beaker and the guys and all other displays left tonight and tomorrow. My Internet has been down all day (at least it was working last night, thank you VFAT God) but glad it's back on to watch Patriots and VBA.

The US teams will be streamed on the US Channel and the Europeans on the EU one.

The pilots mostly simulate the displays of real aerobatic teams like the Red Arrows, Thunderbirds, Patrouille Suisse, Blue Angels, Russian Knights and Blue Impulse, however, many teams also create their own spectacular displays instead of simulating real life counterparts. VFAT is currently the only virtual airshow where such a large group of teams gather to create an event of this size and since 2007, spectators can watch the event live using internet streaming technology. VFAT takes place once a year and offers the opportunity for virtual aerobatic teams and solo pilots to present their hard work for the enjoyment to the general public.
