  5. Pretty confident that you would LOVE the Flaming Cliffs 3 fidelity then... I know i do... :pilotfly: Good deals to be had on steam for all DCS modules...
  6. Using the saitek x-65F and loving it! :D Initial setup was a pain but im sure it'll be alot easier next time, so time well spent. :)
  7. Really helpfull thread... Appreciated! O7
  8. Thanks ED!! Bought the BS2 which i've been wanting for quite some time now!!! :D
  9. I dont think DCS is even able to utilize more than 4 gb ram... My own testing shows it never went above...
  10. ATI and Nvidia should sponsor you ED... Cause when this thing comes out, i HAVE to get a new graphics card in order to enjoy all this great stuff your making... :D
  11. Been running some performance monitoring on my PC the last few days (approx 10 hours of gameplay in total) and discovered that DCS has surprisingly little effect on CPU, memory and disk loads. My CPU (older version 2,8 ghz quadcore I7) was never above 30%, my memory was constant on 4gb usage (even though i have 16gb available) and the disk load spiked once or twice every minute or so, not affecting game performance at all. Moving on to my graphics card, an "old" Asus 580GTX, the game used every bit of resource it could get its hands on, constantly utilizing between 90% to 100% load, depending on buildings within range, units on the ground and firepower being delivered on the battlefield. To me (though im no expert) the results indicate that CPU, memory and disk is no problem at all aslong as you dont buy 5+ year old hardware. Graphics cards however is the alfa and omega when it comes to high FPS in DCS. Not that this is much of a suprise, but im really surprised at just how little CPU, memory and disk load effects game performance. So if your buying a new computer because DCS was performing poorly on your old system, id guess you'll want to add a new gfx card with your new configuration. My 2 cents of research.
  12. "Just another Tuesday at work..." Srsly though, thats genius!!!
  13. Pretty much in the same situation as OP... Looking forward to some good advice... :D
  14. This is brilliant!!! Thanks Stuka!!! o7
  15. Funny stuff!!! Thx for sharing and gl onwards... And dont worry bout the learning curve, you are not alone... ;)
  16. This is the approach that has worked for me so far... It def takes more time to read briefing, study the map and recon the skies and ground, than just labeling the whole battlefield, but i get the feeling im "doing it right", which is the whole reason im playing a sim. So why not simulate the meta-game aswell? :pilotfly:
  17. Saitek x65 is amazing if you take your time and get the hang of key assigning... Once its set, its awesome with every DCS module out there and i doubt there will ever be one it cant handle... GL nomatter what HOTAS you decide to go with...
  18. Just use numpad 5. Will reset both view ingame and the Trackir position... Works perfect for me...
