I have tried DSR and found it too much of a hit on FPS without too much improvement in anti-aliasing. What AA are others using and what ABRIS quality do you get?

I would happily run cockpit resolution at 1024 every frame to improve the ABRIS but I have tried that option and it did not resolve the poor picture and jagged and flicking gridlines. Jacks

Sounds good, looking forward to the second round since the first was so addictive. Greg, XCom and team well done on such a well organised and enjoyable event.

XCom, have you considered changing the season to winter so the mission will look different from the last. Or use fall season so the desert texture by starway could be used. This will help differsentiate between the two rounds and Add some variety

I am happy with the resolute of the Shkval at 512 which is the resolution I use in the SU-25T. I use this resolution to maximise FPS.

I have most settings in Nividia CP set the application controlled and have limited found the setup that maximises FPS on my system. For the game options I have everything at high except water and shadows which are at medium and civ traffic is off. I have HDR, tree shadows, TSAA and mirrors off. Visibility is set to maximum, tree to 6.7km and clutter to 230m. Cockpit resolution is set to 512 which should be sufficient for 1080p? The screen resolution is 1920x1080 at a ratio of 16:9. At the moment I don't use the ABRIS due to the quality and the difference between it and the MFDs in the A-10C is stark. I will try and take screen shots of the option page tonight. Jacks

I have a problem that means that my ABRIS screen is difficult to read. The gridlines are jagged and flash and the text is difficult to read. Please see attached cockpit screenshots. I play the game on 1080p on a 27" monitor and have textures and scenes set to high. I have cockpit resolutions set to 512 although there is no improvement with 1024 every frame. I have also tried increasing the antitropic filtering in Nvidia CP but no luck. I do not have the same issue in the A-10C. Is this a known issue? Are there any mods or fixes? Regards, Jacks

How can torque be measured in PSI, I assume this is measuring at some point along the turbine.

If you get a message that says connection interrupted then you may have a mod installed that the server doesn't like. Uninstall all mods and then add them one by one until you identify which is the culprit.

Yes I have installed the current OB ready for the 1.5 update later this month which as I understand from wag's video will only be available for those using the open beta version.

I have just installed DCS World Open Beta alongside my install of DCS World so I will be running both at the same time. I have opened Nvidia control panel to setup the options for DCS Open Beta but it doesn't show in the list, it only shows DCS Black Shark which controls my normal consumer version of DCS. Does the DCS Black Shark application in Nvidia CP control both installations at the same time or do I need to add the new application to Nvidia Control Panel manually? Jacks

Also how do you change the nvidia settings for the second install as it only shows one profile in Nvidia Control Panel, DCS: Black Shark, which is the one I use to control the graphics setting for the normal version. Thanks for all your help! Jacks

Looks like I am sorted but it looks like it a will have to dedicate a day to remaping all of the keys and axis for the open beta version :(

sorry for all the questions, is it possible to run two JSGMEs at the same time by copying JSGME in to a new file path and changing the name of the launcher?

How do you guys manage mods, do you have to install the mod in the _MODS file in each install? Can JSGME mod two installs at the same time?

After Wags' video, I, like many other I am sure, will be changing from the standard install of DCS 1 to the Open Beta version. My question is am I better to install the Beta version as a second install on my system (may take up a lot of memory) or should I just upgrade my current version to the open beta and just use that. I use a lot of mods using JSGME (mainly texture and cockpit mods) and so how would this work with two installs? What are the advantages and disadvantages of: a. A single install of DCS Open Beta? b. Having both DCS Open Beta and DCS World installed on the same machine? Thanks in advance, Jacks

I would love to see the addition of a SAR script so if a certain number of aircraft take off in a row without retuning to bases, then no fixed wing aircraft cannot spawn at that airfield until some helicopters have rescued a number of downed pilots in the local area. This would be great flying for the helo pilots and stop people banging out once they are out of weapons or low on fuel instead of RTB. This in turn will lead to more gaps in the CAPs which should allow for more fluid gameplay and less of the 40 minute min helo ride just to get shot down complaints. Also this will force teams to manage their weapons and fuel better and coordinate when players RTB. Jacks

Greg, what season is the mission set to as I would like to use stairway's desert textures for round 2 but they only display during fall. Jacks

I would like to register for the next round for blue: Callsign (B/229) Jacks Preferred aircraft: Mi-8, UH-1H, KA-50, SU-25T, Mig-21 Jacks

Very nice. How is the cockpit coming along?

Now matter what I try, I cannot get the pilot body (or at least legs to show). I have the option selected in the options menu and I am pressing RShift+P. I am doing anything else wrong? Jacks

Thanks Lilkiki!

Very nice! The main reason I built this was because I am keen on the Afganistan scenario and I wanted a base that only had one HLS for multiplayer so if squadrons use it online one can land at a time while the others flŷ a traffic pattern around the FOB. Should make for some interesting troop pickups!

No offence taken, glad you are enjoying it! The reason I went for the lights was that it can be used for night flying. I designed the FOB so that people can easily add and take away as they please. Once the new mission editor is release I will build another, maybe a bit smaller.

For all you mission designers interested in designing realsitic Afghanistan missions, please follow this link below to an Afghan FOB which can be used as a template in ME. The FOB can used with the Desert scenery by Starway! Link to thread with mod: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2463501#post2463501 Here are a few screenshots:
