    Pico 4: how to set it up for DCS?

    in Virtual Reality

    Posted

    Hey guys, I need some help please.

    PICO 4
    AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
    RX 6700 XT 12GB VRAM
    64GB RAM

    ASUS WiFi 6 router on 5GHz band, 1200mbps local speed (The speed that bitrate needs)
    I use HEVC codec at around 130 mbps. For my standards, i get good quality, a bit low fps at times (30-40), mostly around 55 tho at 72 hz. Graphics in DCS is high, Pixel density 1.2. High settings in VD (U know, the list where top is god mode). I notice latency tho when i move my mouse, its a few milliseconds behind. I only use the mouse during cold starts tho.

    Is the latency caused by too high bitrate? Will decreasing from 130 mbps cause bitrate artifacts? Can I get some tips regarding the bitrate and codec?

    Datalink in the HSD isnt always accurate?

    in DCS: F-16C Viper

    Hi, I am pretty new to the F-16 Viper, so please bare with me, hehe.

    I used to fly the F-15C for many many years, but I recently purchased the F-16 Viper. The big advantage is the datalink in my HSD. But here to my issue/question.

    Sometimes, the HSD does not show all bandits. Sometimes, outta nowhere, a bandit can pop-up on my FCR and prior to the popup it wasnt a detection on the HSD. Is this like server lag or something? Because to my understanding, the HSD shows targets because of the AWACS and other aircraft that has datalink? And I always press the datalink button on the HSD so it says "TMOL" i think. I press it one time, I think its like right OSB 5.

    If you read the attachment, it seems you can use it together, although the FCR will be degraded in mode 1.

    Because it's still usefull against ground based radars. And why can the F15 do it? Because this feature has been first implemented in the F-16 and F-18. The F-15, being a much older and feature complete module, did not get the same effects implemented.

    Yes, i saw in the original attachment after I wrote my reply, my apologies.
    Thank you very much for your answer, have a great day sir.

    In DCS, you cannot use the FCR if the ECM is transmitting.

    With ECM in Mode 3, your pod continuously transmits, which means you cannot use the FCR.

    What, I cannot use the FCR with ECM activated? In other words, I cannot have ECM on and engage in BVR at the same time?... Then why the hell do we even have ECM and why can the F15 do that when its several years older?

    Returning player looking for a squadron

    Hello,

    I am a returning player. Due to drug addiction for 7 years, I sold everything i owned, incl my gaming rig. 
     I used to play on the 104th server every single day for a year. My name there was Alkaline, and sometimes Alkaline Love Roids.

    Here I am, 9 years later with a new gaming rig and just started playing again yesterday. I have to re-learn very much, but I think I will catch up rather quickly. I would love to join a squadron. 
    These aircrafts are my passion and what I love to fly.

    A-10C
    F-15C
    KA-50

    F-15C is my favorite on these 3.

    Just hit me up!

    Hi,

     

    I have been unable to play for a long time, and I really really miss DCS and all of my friends in DCS.. All players regulars on 104th, Im coming back soon! :)

     

    Can this laptop handle this game at all? I mean, can I play for e.x on lowest graphics with decent FPS? See specs below.

     

    Packard Bell EasyNote TS

    CPU: Intel Celern B800 1.50GHz

    L3 Cache: 2MB

    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics (Max dynamic Freq; 1GHz

    Thanks in advance. Regards, Robin

    How do I export RWR and HDD from f-15 to 2nd monitor?

    in PC Hardware and Related Software

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    So, I have the radar configured decent now, so I got room for ~2 more instruments on my 2nd monitor. I want the HDD (Heads-Down-Display) and RWR on my 2nd monitor. I have been researching for hours, but I dont understand how to!

     

    I tryed Helios software, it just gave me a WerFault.exe error all the time, I tryed EasyMonitorconfigure software, but that aswell gave me nothing but errors..

     

    Can anyone please tell me how to do, or like, write me a code?

     

    Main monitor: BenQ 24'' 144Hz

    2nd monitor: BenQ 21,5'' 60Hz

     

    My code that im using at the moment is

    _  = function(p) return p; end;
name 		= _('Camera + LMFCD automatic placement');
Description = 'Camera on primary display and Left MFCD on secondary'

if  displays and #displays > 1 then 
primary = 
{	
	x 		= displays[1].x - screen.x,
	y 		= displays[1].y - screen.y,
	width   = displays[1].width,
	height  = displays[1].height,
	aspect  = displays[1].width/displays[1].height;
	viewDx  = 0;
       viewDy  = 0;
}
secondary = 
{
	x 		= displays[2].x - screen.x,
	y 		= displays[2].y - screen.y,
	width   = 1024,
	height  = 1024,
}
else
primary = 
{	
	  x = screen.width / 2;
         y = 0;
         width  = screen.width / 2;
         height = screen.height;
         viewDx = 0;
         viewDy = 0;
         aspect = screen.aspect / 2;
}
secondary =
{
	 x = 0;
	 y = 0;
	 width = 1024 / 2;
	 height = 1024;
}
end

UIMainView = primary
LEFT_MFCD  = secondary
Viewports  = {UIMainView}

    Need help configuring dual-monitors in DCS

    in PC Hardware and Related Software

    Hi,

     

    I just got a 2nd monitor, and I'd like to use it with DCS, for example, get the F-15 MFCD on my 2nd monitor, or maybe even the radar itself on the 2nd monitor?

     

    Both monitors are set to 1920x1080 in Windows

    My left monitor numbered "2" is my main display in Windows

    I use "Extend these displays"

     

    Main monitor: BenQ XL2411Z 24'', 144Hz connected with Dual-DVI

    2nd monitor: BenQ E2200HD 21,5'', 60Hz connected with HDMI

     

    GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 2GB (Overclocked from 1070MHz to 1090MHz)

    CPU: AMD FX-8320 (Overclocked from 3.8GHz to 4.7GHz)

     

    I've been trying different settings in DCS Options, but its aaall messed up. I noticed that I can select 3k resolution aswell when I connected my 2nd monitor.

     

    Help is appreciated! :)

    Is there any app for iPhone on DCS?

    in DCS Modding

    Posted · Edited by Alkaline

    Hi,

     

    Is there any app to iPhone that I can use with DCS? Like a MFCD for F-15 on the iPhone?

     

    Or is it possible to use my iPhone as a second extended monitor? Then I can just download the F-15 TAD/MFCD software on my PC and put it on the iPhone 2nd monitor =)

     

    EDIT

    Everyone can ignore this post, but im keeping the thread for other players who'd find this intresting. I found a app so I can use my iPhone 4 as a extended 2nd monitor to my PC via USB connection.

    Which aircraft is best suited for SEAD?

    in DCS: Flaming Cliffs 3

    Posted

    Thanks for all answers!

     

    I gotta say, the Su-25T is a MONSTER on SEAD! It's so fun to gather up so we are like 2 SEAD's and 2-3 escort fighters, and then we'll just head on towards enemy base and take out the SAM's.

     

    Just one thing I really hate, hehe. When im over-excited that I just launched a KH-58U towards a Patriot-SAM, and then a IR-SAM takes out my missile... -.-
