I've only got 8 Mb download and maybe 1 or 1.5 mb up. But I am working on it. As far as Ping is concerned I only connect to servers with no more than 100 ping. I don't think that is the major issue. I can run Planetside 2 without problems. And that game is HEAVY on your internet. You connect with 2000 people on 1 server and no lag ey XD. But I am working on improving this.

ASUS K55VD Intel Core i7-3610QM CPU 2.3GHz 6GB RAM 64 bit system NVidia GeForce 610M 2 GB RAM. 750 GB HDD McAffee antivirus Teamspeak 3 or Skype I don't have an SDD but if this is the cause then I wonder: Why don't I have trouble in offline mode? In there I can practically stick my nose in my enemy's tailpipe without problems. And that is on a AI and script heavy mission. And on top of that, my system is barely 6 months old. You might expect that this should count for something.

Can you confirm this with a link? Besides I already contacted him weeks ago in which I told him I am a backer and was wondering when I would be hearing from him. I still have to get a reply. I hope I don't have to childishly spam his inbox till he finally answers. As exited as I am for this title, the contact side of luthier is terrible. I don't like to say this but I can understand that people are losing faith. Maybe I should turn my questions about this to YOYO. He seems to be the only dev member to show his face every once in a while.

true, but unlike what some tell me here, I think the clientside bugs aren't ironed out yet. I noticed this first hand on the WAR server amongst others. First of all I fly the F15 mostly, since I don't really have the patience to fly all the way to the front. Most of the online guys I see are A-10C's and KA50's. So not much of a challenge there. But this time I decided not to smoke that A10 flying just 400m in front of my nose so I tried to fly next to him. BAM: game freeze, sound stuck etc. I could navigate my pc but my game just gave up. I rebooted and tried again. This time I had a merge with a Su27. Finaly a challenge! Happilly I go in. Just getting in close, he turns and launches: BAM game freeze (the missile just left the rail). Reboot: new scenario: I get close to a plane and my game freezes. Don't know what is going on here. I don't think it is my pc itself. My rig isn't the best but it sure as hell should be able to run this. And on a sidenote: ED might want to take a look at performance. When I fly online and encounter some moderate to heavy clouds my fps just drops to a crawl. It drops so much that it just isn't playable anymore. And in offline mode I have no problems like this.

Does anyone know how this goes for the paypal backers?

I pledged via PayPal, does anyone know how it goes from here? I know that the paypal plegders should be contacted. but we are at least 4 weeks in the game and I have still to get a message from luthier. I send him a PM in the beginning of week 3 to ask him when he planned to contact us. I still have to get a reply. I know he is busy but a roadmap is the least he can do.

This is also something to bear in mind: I have backed this project via paypal with 60 bucks, and in the original statement they said that all the backers will be contacted in the first week. We're almost 3 weeks later and I've still heard nothing. I don't want to seem greedy or something, I know those guys have a huge load of work to be done but I would like to know when I can expect to be contacted. I've sent out a pm to Luthier last week but I still have to get a reply. Am I the only one that has this? Or are more people having this, in lack of better word, issue? edit: Correct me if I am wrong but are the paypal backers supposed to be included into a backer section? I thought that was stated on the kickstarter page.

Do bear in mind that Lorentz was modded in IL-2. It wasn't there in the vanilla game. I do however hope that they put it in. It would be a great help and very immersive

Luthier, do you know when the paypal backers are contacted for the extra's and backer section? I really wanna look at what you guys did with the 109!

If you can gauge the distance between you and your target with your gunsight, you can sort of determine how much lead you should pull. I flew a lot in IL-2 1946 and if that is remotely similar to DCSP51 this should work. Back then it was like: If the enemy plane's wingtips touch the outer ring in your gunsight, the enemy is ~100 meters away. I've never flown DCS P51 but this is my previous experience in other good sims.

I wouldn't say ugly, but of course the razorback is the most characteristic thunderbolt in my opinion. but when you have the teardrop canopy you can see a lot more!

Hey we all need some target practice :joystick::P

I am not sure but if someone made a custom skin, nobody could see it in multiplayer unless the server had the skin and assigned it to a plane. (you can't even fly it in multiplayer as far as I know) When I was playing IL-2 in multiplayer someone could have made a skin for his own, and flown around in it while else nobody had it. but after a while in the server, the skin downloaded to all the clients in the server and everyone could see the beautiful skin he had on his plane. the skin would have downloaded to a cache folder inside the game. you could look back for it, copy it and place it with your own skins. In IL-2 it was simple: Pick a plane (out of the extensive list unless in coop), chose nation and skin, FLY. If you ask me DCS and LOMAC do things way to complicated.

I've found a different topic like this. it appears that my laptop prefers the built in Graphics card instead of the NVIDIA one. problem is now fixed

Hello people, I've been flying DCS for some time now and I did not have any problems of any sort. But since I installed DCS on my new pc I have view problems. The screenshots in the attachments are a example of the problems I am having when I go to external view and zoom in a bit. This is not only happening with airplanes, but with every object in the game that can be placed manualy like tanks. But the problem is not restricted to external view. When I am in the cockpit of a MiG29 and look to the wings I see that the slats are missing. I only see the L-shaped slot where the slots are supposed to be. Is this a known problem? I tried updating video card drivers etc. but that does not solve the problem. thanks for the help,
