Drewa

I found that option at about 1AM last night after several hours of trying off the wall solutions. I was exasperated to say the least :doh:

I am planning on making a device similar to the one found here: http://www.instructables.com/id/The-NovaA-DIY-Oculus-Rift/ It would just use simple IR tracking and would essentially just mirror the main monitor through HDMI. The issue I'm having comes to the software side of things. The way I imagine going about it would be using Opentrack to track my headclip mounted to the goggles, and then have the goggles mirror my monitor that has the two images for the stereoscopic effect. The problem I'm having is getting DCS to display like that on my monitor. Can anyone tell me how to get this to work or why I'm an idiot for thinking it could?

I nominate Santi871 for their guide to the Su-27 and for being an amazing community member. EDIT: That is if you're still taking nominations

You can bring up taskmanager, and then right click the program and select "minimize". It forces it to close. EDIT: Not close, minimize. Sidenote: Mine always minimizes unless I start DCS while spotify is running. If I open spotify after DCS I can minimize just fine. It was this way with 1.2.xx and 1.5

I would love to give this as a git to a friend!

I believe there is something called lua macro. This guy talks about it:

Darn I was hoping I could do some training stuff with friends

Does anybody know how to use this pod?

Have you guys thought about setting up a Patrion?

I want Su-27 for a friend if that is ok. He onl has F-15C but loves it.

I can hold formation in every aircraft, even Su-27. I have experience with large formation flight of 6-8 aircraft of different models (A-10, F-15 and Su-27 in one flight).

Link: IDK what to put here so here's my Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/drewal79/ Video of formation goof off (from friends POV): Video of Low Altitude Flying: (I crashed at the end because I was laughing so hard) This is all the footage I have of me flying. I have been flying DCS for about 18 months now and flight sims in general since I was in first grade. (MFS 1998) I have a GhettoIR and an X55, along with a computer capable of video streaming and recording.

My bad! :doh: It's still overpriced though.

This PC is overpriced. Building a computer is very easy. Here is a part list that will run every game multiple times faster. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/NjwVK8 This will run DCS like nothing you've ever seen. If you want to you can even add a second card for SLI in the future. Please don't buy that HP POS. It is purely overpriced. Even if you are inexperienced with computer building, youtube has tons of great tutorials. Plus it's a lot of fun and very rewarding! EDIT: If anyone has any suggestions or modifications to the parts list feel free to add them. I am not the most experienced at PC building and I am 100% certain that there are some improvements someone could make. BTW the graphics card in it is very under powered. I honestly can't believe they get away with selling a computer with those specs for that much. Can anyone tell me how the justify that price tag?

Quick tangent. Why can't we use binoculars in DCS. I would imagine for aircraft like the A-10A (maybe even the C), It would be a useful feature. Not on topic at all so sorry, I just had to say it.

16Gb wouldn't hurt. What is your preload distance at? This is the biggest impactor of RAM usage I think.

TV's are not very good for gaming for one main reason: They have a HUGE input lag. Some TV's have input lag of up to 300ms, or almost a thrid of a second. While that may seem like a short amout of time, this is 20 whole frames of delay if you are playing at 60Fps. I would advise against TV's if you are doing any kind of formation work. NCIX did o video about this. (Can't get the Youtube embed to work for some reason)

Find a good program like MSI Afterburner. Play DCS or some other game that you think would benefit. If you are maxing out your ram, then yes definitely upgrade, but if you don't use any more than 7-7.5 Gb, you should be totally fine. More ram only helps performance if you are maxing out the quantity you already have.

I was reading on the Linus Techtips Forums: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/341982-will-dx12-double-the-vram-in-slicrossfire/. I don't see why you would want to use the frame buffers independently. The reason that SLI right now mirrors the VRAM is because pulling files from one card to the other would increase memory latency enormously. Video cards rely on being able to access information very quickly. I would think that unless you are maxing out your frame buffer, you would only decrease your performance.

All they said was projects. For all we know they could be cars, tanks, or boats! :pilotfly: :megalol:

It was a gts450 1gb until yesterday. Now it's a GTX 960 G1 Gaming!

I have seen some of the other aircraft you guys fly. I am wondering if there is any way the public will have access to all of these beautiful aircraft, or are they only for squadron use? I just know i would love to fly the Alphajet in DCS sooner than twenty-never!

This thread derailed faster than a bullet train.

Just use the A-10C on the cats. It will be more effective! :megalol:

I can just imagine the huge face palm he made right before he started to stream :lol: I feel like this was an "accidental" leak. Not entirely on purpose, but not entirely unplanned either. :lol:
