Wow, was just playing on line missiles seem to be completely useless. Most my on line engagement end up in gun fights.

I tried to adjust my TIR curves and in game curves in the mig-29 and the Su-27, but no matter what I do I can't check my six anymore. The work around that worked for the previous version no longer fixes anything for me. Also I can't seem to adjust my head position with the num pad keys for the mig-29, even though everything is mapped correctly in my controls, the keys simply don't do anything. When I updated my my stable version to the new patch, at first it was working fine, but after turning it on today everything seems to have been brocken. It seems like I am having this problem intermittently, sometimes when I relaunch the game everything goes back to normal, but most of the time nothing works. DCS is now completely unplayable for me. What's the point of having 2 versions if non of them work stable. There goes my free weekend and the hopes of flying, or taking advantage of the sale.

Some of it

I second the beach texture idea.

Try this thread it might help. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=159434 I am running a i5 2500K @4.8Ghz, gtx980, 16GB Ram, SSD with mustangs no tree shadows mod, and shadows set to medium, Civilian traffic set to medium, everything else is set to high. I am running butter smooth between 40-60fps. After you set all these things up play around with the with the tree clutter, and preload radius. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help Chafer. I tried modifying this files path and others that I thought might be related to the afterburner sound, but no luck. I even tried replacing the file that it points to (\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\Engines\SnecmaM53\i_M2kC_combustion_afterburner.ogg) it with my own sound file, because the one in the beta doesn't play anything when you open it, but it fails to activate. May be its something internal that is beyond my scope of understanding, but it used to be a pretty straight forward process before the last beta update. Lets hope this will be fixed soon, or someone finds a way how to do it.:(

Can you please tell me which sdef file in the Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Sounds\sdef\ folder is responsible for activating the INTERNAL (cockpit) afterburner sound file. Thanks a lot

Has everything been transferred to CoreMods for the Mirage now? I am not seeing anything mirage related the regular Mods folder anymore.

Thank you for the response Zeus. What about the internal cockpit sounds? Can they still be modified? I tried changing the file path name (to my afterburner wave file) in the sounds/sdef/afterburner.sdef file, but couldn't activate the afterburner sound anymore. How can I get DCS to use my wave file in the cockpit when the Mirage afterburner is activated? Thanks a lot.

+1 Definitely deserves some RP points for that :thumbup: Yea I was using the F-15 sound files as well, but I can no longer link to them in the sdef files, I wish some one would tell me how to activate the afterburner wave file for the mirage now. :helpsmilie:

Hi Guys, Before updating to the current Open Beta (1.5.4) , I had a afterburner sound mod installed for the M2000 which really made the immersion better for me, but now it doesn't work anymore. I was hoping some one can help me out by letting me know which lua file I would need to modify and how, in order to point DCS to the wave file (when afterburner is activated) I still have in my DCS/Mods/Sounds folder. Any advice would be really appreciated. Thanks a lot

Yep, that worked. Thanks.

Even missions that were saved in the winter season, don't load winter textures anymore.

Just tried to change the season in the mission editor and I don't see the option anymore to change it. I need to change it to winter, but there is no option. Was it moved somewhere else or is this a bug? I still the see this option in my Alpha and release version.

Thank you for the workaround SkateZilla, I can finely go back to enjoying DCS. And thanks to Shahdoh for making it painless to install. :thumbup:

Hey Skate, I had costume views set, and I was still effected....if that helps some one. I also noticed that in the Mig-21 everything worked pretty much like it used to, except for when you start looking back your head just keeps spinning through round and round, until I run out of the the TIR axis.

Yea, I am having the same problem, my FOV limits and TIR axises are all off. Tried using my previous view settings and let the beta build its own settings and it doesn't make any difference. Mapped all new controls, no difference. Unchecked the VR box, and did the black screen fix, no difference. I tried swamping settings from other installs, and the input setting from my Alpha install fixed the f-15 cockpit for a bit, but nothing else. Tried to reinstall 3 times and import my alpha settings but couldn't duplicate the fix again. Ended up just downgrading to the previous version and everything works perfect again. There is definitely some kind of a bug with the TIR axis assignment and FOV limits, plus the curves don't seem to have the same effect like they used to.

Yea, I did forget to uncheck the VR settings, but it still didn't help for some reason. I already reinstalled the game 3 times and still having the same problem. Not sure what else to do. Thanks for the help though.

My Track IR mapping is all messed up on the flanker and the F-15, most of the track Ir axises have been transferred to other view controls, shifting your head forward and backwards doesn't work anymore even thought it is mapped to my warthog throttle slider in the settings. Even after fixing the TIR axises I can no longer look all the way backwards in the flanker, it seems most of my neck limits have been severely diminished. In the Mig-21 my head just keeps spinning around like the exorcist. Thats just what I noticed so far. This is the first update to cause any major problems for me, they were usually fine before. Probably will try to reinstall DCS.

Yea I'm getting the lines as well, the fps is fine though. I'm using a gtx980

Nice....glad that you found it, looking forward to those winter runways.

WOW....NRG-Vampire...nice find. Can you tell me the folders that these textures are kept in, and which runway files can be edited for each season?

Very nice job Starway...BTW....donated. Quick question....does the Tbilisi Lochini airport parking lots and runway use the same texture for all the seasons? Or did I install something wrong? I want that winter runway/parking lot look for all airports, but I am only getting it on some. Is this a limitation of DCS, not addressed yet in the texture pack, or did I install something wrong? Thanks a lot

Very nice, Donated.
