fixen

Lonewolf registration Team: Blue Nickname: Fixen Aircraft: Mainly F-15C, might sometimes go KA-50 or SU-25T or on a really rare occasion A-10C.

Official start is 11 september i suppose, instead of 11 august?

If it requires different hardware then on the real mirage 2000C i would say don't model the Exocet and ARMAT. But... If it is just a software update in the aircraft so it can recognise it's stores and give the search and fire commands to the missiles, I don't see a problem modeling it. You can always disable the missiles in the mission editor.

I am really looking forward to shooting armat and exocet. Finally a fast mover with sead ability and a anti ship missile.

It must be one of the things said in the last 2 pages of this thread. Otherwise I really have no idea.

Why would a a10 lase targets for a mirage. More logical would be a JTAC lasing.

It is probably possible to kick someone out of his aircraft the moment he fires in a certain zone. It is the same on the acrobatics server, but then with speeding (condition) on the taxiway (area). You might also be able to immediately make a weapon vanish after launching in a certain zone. How? I have no idea.

It is used as a assembly aircraft for making formations. All bombers would see the aircraft and form up on it. After the formation was completed it would land again.

Yes and the prices are still to high and the right models are not out yet.

When in a head on engagement use high prf as mentioned. Also note that the ET has a lot more trouble tracking head on then when you are on the 6 of an enemy. Especially when the bandit cuts power and emits less heat.

No, i wouldnt go for broadwell yet. You could go Z87 if that is cheaper and better fits your budget. Personally i wouldn't. But it depends on your budget ofcourse.

The thermal paste between the chip and its shell is worse on the 4670k and therefor will run hotter and overclock less than the 4690k. Difference between z97 and z87 is that z97 has sata express and m.2 slots. But most important, it can seat the upcomming broadwell chips.

Where do you live that a i5 4690k goes for 281 euro's. I can find them for 250 easy where I live. Edit: If you want to overclock you need to get a motherboard with a z97 chip

Do you mean i should test that as well? Because I am fine with 60 average FPS on the ground. I took high settings because i wanted to show the OP that having an average FPS of 30 is not normal for a GTX970. Edit: Done the test with no TSSAA, MSAA down to 4X and lowered the tree and clutter sliders to 3/4 of the bar. This time there where no other helicopters flying around me on the virtual acrobatics server, but i feel the impact of that is not that big. The numbers: Frames: 4330 - Time: 48734ms - Avg: 88.850 - Min: 78 - Max: 111 So that is quite a lot higher. I have to see for my self if those settings might be worth it comparing picture quality.

I was planning to go to bed (3AM :s), but I just had to do a quick test with the fraps benchmarker. So I joined the virtual acrobatics server. On the ground in a UH-1H with another huey flying VERY close to me and on the background some other helicopters (MI-8, KA-50, UH-1H) i got the following results. I was looking around in the cockpit and outside the whole time: Frames: 2526 - Time: 41704ms - Avg: 60.570 - Min: 38 - Max: 96. Same settings as on the screenshot in the previous post.

Allright, so i have done some testing. I am a bit late, sorry for that, I was very busy. First my option screen: I don't have solid numbers (yet), just me looking at the fps. I tested my fps online in various aircraft on the ground (UH-1H, Mig-21, F-15C, etc) and in the air flying the instant mission F-15C intercept (had to do it with keybord and mouse because i reinstalled my pc). FPS on the ground varied between 40-90+ FPS. The 40 FPS only sporadically occured in a weird camera angle (I couldn't find FPS dropping below 40). I would say average FPS was around 55-60. FPS in the air varied between 50-90+ FPS. The average was higher than on the ground. I will do some proper testing when i reinstalled all the drivers for my gear, with high low and average FPS.

Going to be tomorrow. Have to go to a party and drink beer tonight ;)

I have heard this before, but find the low fps very strange. Without exagerating, my gigabyte GTX 970 runs dcs with 90 fps without trafic and around 60 or higher online. Ill check again because it has been a while since I last checked numbers. But your fps is way to low. Do note that dcs is very cpu heavy and that might be the reason your fps is low. I don't have a very powerfull cpu either though. It is a 4690k. I will probably go online and check my fps in a few hours. If I do Ill post it here (flying and on the ground fps).

What are your hardware specs? Did you ever experience freezes before in other applications? How long does it take for the freeze to happen? Is it random? How long did you wait when it froze? I have had freezes in DCS aswell, but i also got them outside of DCS. It had to do with my SSD shutting down because of some energy efficiency setting.

I got it aswell. IP Adress: 89.105.194.72 Location Doetichem, the Netherlands But it is probably a proxy IP adress Edit: I am sure it is a proxy. Host is TOR network.

Does it immediatly restart or after a while of streaming? Do you see a bsod screen just before restarting?

ATC with kick ability required. But then again, only had a runway crash a few times. A rule that needs to be added is that you are not allowed to eject on the ground, but you have to switch to spectator. Wreckages are really anoying. Left side takeoff and landing is allright. But I really like formation takeoff. Best thing would be having everyone in teamspeak. Even better, automatic switching channels to ATC channel of the airfield when you get close. But that is not possible. We need ingame VOIP with different channels for every airfield.

I guess noones here

Your engines should not just catch fire, full throttle is fine for takeoff. Check the birdstrike setting in options. I'm not to sure but i think 250kph should be a good speed to take off in the SU-25 (depending on load ofcourse). Also use flaps when you have a heavy load. The SU-25 can take quite a long while to get up to speed when you have a very heavy load.

I have activated my onboard graphics (intel HD 4600 on a 4690K) because I wanted a second screen on my computer. It is an old screen and I don't have any VGA ports on my GTX970 (and the adapter is from VGA to DVI-I which I allready use). Now my mig-21 activation is corrupted and it said I did some significant changes to the system... I only enabled the onboard graphics, how is that a significant change. All other modules seem to be fine. Then I thought I would just reactivate it because I did not wan't the hassle and I can burn one activation. So I clicked the retry and tried to reactivate it. What I got was a memory error and the product still wasn't activated. Questions: 1. Is there any way which does not involve reinstalling to get it to work? 2. Why does only the mig-21 module complain and not the rest? I could ofcourse get a VGA to DVI adapter (i still have a DVI slot left on the GPU), or get a displayport cable for my main monitor but i feel it should work this way.
