Ha...no I'm not but it is nice to know that is an option. Thought perhaps I missed a button somewhere that scored my multiplayer on the logbook. Thanks gang.

Do "flight hours" not accumulate in multiplayer? New to DCS and once satisfied I was done with the tutorials and ready for real missions I created a "pilot" and started doing missions and instant action. Been a couple of days now and I have racked up several hours of flight time (some of you must have hundreds of hours :joystick:), and then noticed my time did not increase after playing a multiplayer game with a friend. Any insight would be appreciated. :thumbup:

Will give it a shot, thanks for the insight Mnemonic.

Hello, I am running DCS on a triple display with nvidia surround using 2 GTX 670s in SLi mode. Under the game's setting (default high) and with 3 screens selected I am getting 20 fps at the most. If I make it one screen I get well over 60 all the time...but the two side monitors shows everything stretched and distorted. What am I doing wrong? The game looks great with the 3 Screen Setting, no stretching or distortion on the side monitors. Attached thumbnails were taken from the same spot int he cockpit. The first is with 1 screen...notice the enormity of the wing tip. The second shows the scaling all correct. I feel I should be getting more than 20 FPS with my PC, even on three monitors.

TZeer, could you explain how you get SLI to work...I am getting better frames with it off. Yes, I could just sell the extra video card but then I would get worse fps in other games (though to be honest since I discovered DCS other games are gathering dust). I am running a triple display. Reading that you've got it working propery gives me hope that perhaps I am missing some setting somewhere. Running i5-3570 Ivy Bridge; 2 GTX 670 FTW in SLi; 8GB DDR3 1600 RAM; AsRock Extreme4 MOBO; 3 Dell U2412 monitors; Windows 7 64 Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all. I'm sure to have a questions and it ism good to know they will be met with patience, wisdom and knowledge. I cannot remember the last time I played a game this challenging to learn or one that rewarded a playter with such a sense of accomplishment. I literally cheered on my first successful landing. All the other games on my hard drive are becoming jealous of DCS: A-10C.

Hello DCS Community! Been "loitering" on the forums for a couple of weeks now learning a lot about DCS: A-10C...thanks for all the insight. Started playing about 3 weeks ago, my first flight sim...Wow! Utterly engaging, loving the challenge and looking forward to learning more and more.

Thanks for this, Ixvanwyk. Need to check these settings when I return home tonight.

Adding to this...can you change the skin when joining a multiplayer game?

Hmm...I will have to check into this when I arrive home.

Hello DCS community. New here and to flight sims and let me just say that I am having a wonderful time learning the ins and outs of the A-10C. The forums have been helpful with everything from HOTAS selection, setting up Track IR (thanks Fish!) and learning about the varied nuances of the game. There is one thing I cannot find an answer to it and it is based on the in cockpit HUD. When I get started the hud is there, where is supposed to be and sized properly. As I move around the 'pit while in flight, zooming to to see instruments or scanning for targets, inevitably the HUD becomes to big...as if I zoomed it as well and I cannot find a way to reset it back to its proper starting size. This leads me to having to stoop forward to see the entirety of the HUD as the information on the edges of it (weapons, navigation, speed, etc) are out of view by the structure of the cockpit. Is there away to "center" or "resize" the HUD to come back to an easier to read instrument? Thanks in advance.

This is happening to me as well...almost every time I start up DCS: World...and then again when I begin A-10C. Any way to correct this?
