  1. My apologies, should have thought of including a link. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2000059#post2000059
  2. I'm not sure what the recent post about the bonus system means, or what it is all about. Do you guys? It would be great if someone could elaborate or clarify it with different wording, as I did not really get what they were saying. Edit: here is a link http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2000059#post2000059
  3. No need to apologize for anything. Thanks for your effort and hard work. Take your time and deliver the best hardware combat flight simulation has ever seen! Thanks again
  4. Ohh that sounds interesting. Thanks for the update. Can't wait.
  5. That's what I've been doing the whole time. Any other suggestions?
  6. I'm trying to figure out how to use the Trackclip pro upside down, since I just got a new headset. The thing is, I figured out I need to change the rotation of the camera to 180 degrees, and I then tried inverting everything apart from the z axis and the roll. Problem is, when for some reason when I want to lean down and go forward to look at cockpit instruments, it just doesn't and glitches out. It seems that trackir is not very responsive to this when upside down. I also noticed that when I rotate my head to look behind me in a dogfight, and I try to look behind my seat, it just shoves the head into the seat, as if I'm moving on the z axis. I tried mirroring everything and inverting, I just cannot find the right combination. Any help please!
  7. Hey guys! I just got my USB charger thing in the mail. Can anyone send me a toturial on how to shorten the TrackIR clip pro's USB cable? I have no idea how to do that. Thanks!
  8. I just got a new Astro A50 two weeks ago. Mods seemed WAY too difficult, especially when you don't live in the America's, it's hard to find the right equipment. That's one of the most annoying things of living in the Netherlands. All my family and friends that live in the states can easily purchase anything from amazon, I can't :( Thanks to eBay I was able to find one of these and order it from the UK. Just ordered it and I will report once I get it! Excited!
  9. I was wondering if the current version of DCS supports 7.1 surround audio. If not, does anyone know if it will be supported in EDGE? Thanks in advance!
  10. You can deactivate your modules, but since you formatted your computer, you must contact ED to reset all you activations. TBH, I think you shouldn't worry about it and only start to contact ED when you are low on activations and then ask ED to reset them. ED is a good company, they will reset it for you if you explain the situation, it happens more often than you think. And as Tone71 said, do you really think you're going to use all 9 of them? I did notice there is a manual product deactivation page on the DCS website, but I'm not sure what it does, nor do I know what the hardware code is: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/personal/licensing/deactivate.php Otherwise, contact ED by starting a new ticket: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/new.php Good luck!
  11. @hegykc, any updates or progress? I would really like to hear some news about how it's going.
  12. 1: There are mods that allow you to fly the F-22 and F/A-18 in DCS, but with either ugly cockpits or other cockpits in game, so it wont function well at all. I personally don't use it. 2: If you have DCS modules installed, and you update your DCS, everything will still work. No need to re-install or anything, it just auto updates everything.
  13. For anyone saying that a force sensing stick is the same as the F-16 stick, not really. The F-16 stick is force sensing, and so is the F-35 and F-22. However, the pilots who originally flew the F-16 complained about how the stick did not move. Then you are looking around it is hard to tell where the center of the stick is or what your stick's current position is. That is why all force sensing sticks in actual aircraft today have a bit of movement so that the pilot does not get disoriented with his/her stick. If there is a mod to loosen the X65F, that would be nice. All in all, the Warthog is the most precise stick I've ever used.
  14. I had the exact same conflict. I was able to use the X65F in store eventually. Problem is, unlike actual force sensing sticks, the X65F doesn't move AT ALL. Force sensing sticks today, such as the F-16 stick or F-22 stick slightly move. It doesn't affect on the controls, it only allows the pilot to have a feeling what the stick's position is. Therefore, I put in the extra bucks for a HOTAS Warthog. I have never been more satisfied with any other flight sim hardware product. Also, for the OP especially, the simhq on the HOTAS Warthog is really good, because it compares the physical apparence and accuracy of the HOTAS set and other sets. FYI, the HOTAS Warthog has the best sensitivity. Even if it is too expensive for you, that is the only controller I can advise you. It is extremely good! http://www.simhq.com/_technology3/technology_174a.html
  15. It's mainly because developers in the flight sim world aim towards developing products that are as realistic as can be. Many people aren't big fans of this, which is the reason why the flight sim community, or any simulator community, is significantly smaller than other communities. There are companies like EA, Activision and stuff, that are literally throwing money towards their developers and making really big developer groups to start developing on a tight schedule. Whereas ED, they are pretty much solo. They probably have a smaller team, and the products they are developing require more attention to detail. They don't have a unlimited budget, so it takes more time to create quality products. Developers in the flight sim world are more or less afraid of disappointing their costumers by saying "the product will be released on this date" or "it will be released by this time", because if they fail to do so, many people will hate on them and be like "why isn't it here yet?". Some developers have other jobs, so they don't only work on flight sims. I am incredibly happy with the work Eagle Dynamics has done, and as much as I would love to have a release date for all their products, I understand why they don't. It is simply very hard to predict when it will be done. All we can do is make estimations. My estimation for instance, is that EDGE will be (hopefully) released in the coming weeks. Looking at the recent updates Wags has given us, we can see that Wags said: That shows that Eagle Dynamics is on the edge (i know bad joke) or releasing EDGE. Hope I helped you out a bit.
  16. It's a 3D model of a pilot. I think we've all seen that video and noticed that on the monitor haven't we?
  17. No problem. I believe this thread also has some more information about their F-35:http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=108370 I haven't checked out their website in a while, but it seems to be down indeed. I do believe they're just relaunching, or maybe a new website. Kinney Interactive doesn't only develop aircraft for flight sim, but I believe their main business is refurbishing and creating flight simulators. I could be wrong.
  18. The project is still on going. It is just not going to be released as soon as the kickstarter said.
  19. I'm seeing many people getting exited about IXEG's new 737, saying it is going to be much better quality than PMDG aircraft. Is that really true? Cause in that case, I'm going from FSX to X-Plane, nevertheless, DCS still being my #1 sim BY FAR!
  20. This is something I really miss from FSX. However, I do believe that this is possible in the next engine EDGE. +1
  21. I am playing on 3 monitors, each 1920x1080, and I usually fly the A-10C. I get around 40FPS on highest settings. I've got pretty much everything maxed out. I haven't really noticed a performance decrease, but it could be possible, since I didn't check my fps in 1.2.5 or any of the previous versions since I got my new computer. I did notice that my 3 monitor setup worked much better in 1.2.6 than 1.2.5
  22. Your hard drive should have nothing to do with how the game runs, only the loading speed is increased with faster hard drives. I have DCS installed on a separate SSD so it loads faster, but that's all it does. I don't know how to transfer the files however. I just re install and keep the custom mission files and save games when re installing DCS. If you want better frame rates, better processor and better graphics card is needed. I'm not sure what you're asking about the hard drives, but you might want to know that I installed LOMAC on a seperate drive from all my other DCS installations. I have my C drive, which is a 120gb SSD, a D drive which is a 1TB hard drive (the drive LOMAC is installed on) and a E drive which is a 40GB SSD (where I installed DCS on, including every single module released to date).
  23. I'd say you wasted your money the moment you purchased that MacBook Pro. Apple's computers have become complete pieces of garbage. I say it is time to go for a good quality gaming laptop with Windows 7 or 8.1. Or if you don't need a laptop, go for a desktop PC. I say you need a separate graphics unit in your computer if you want to play DCS. Next to this, get at least 8gb of ram, preferably more for DCS, since it is a 64bit application.
  24. I wanted the exact same for movie making. It would allow one to make videos look so realistic! I originally wanted it for a school project about a year ago, because I could replace the background of the aircraft with a video I made so it looks like a real jet flying over.
  25. They did order it though. I've been living in the Netherlands for quite a few years now, and I know that there has been a lot of controversy about it here. Also in Canada there has been a lot of controversy about the F-35. But, just recently I heard that the Dutch air force decided to purchase the F-35. I can understand that the Dutch need an upgrade, because their F-16 have gone from around the 200 when they just received them, to only 70, which is very sad. The current state of the Dutch military is very sad, and I understand why they ordered the F-35 because, even though they are not fighting a war, they have a role in the EU and UN to have a good amount of forces available. Unfortunately, I heard that there are a lot of cuts being made in the Dutch military. Keep in mind that the Dutch health care system is much better than in the US. Sometimes I'm quite happy I'm living here, because I feel very safe in the Netherlands.
