Clouds pop in I have also noticed some clouds suddenly poping in or out when you get closer to the clouds. Also an occassional stutter when flying through the clouds. My machine is running the game very smoothly in general (60-90 fps), and the clouds behaviour is unexpected. It is quite a subtle effect, but the sim would be even more lifelike if this could be eliminated. I have win 10, gtx 770, i5-3350p, 8Gb Ram. High settings. Does anyone know a good film capture program to save a movie for the ED team?

A10c TMS open beta 1.5 bug
BudgietheLittleHelicopter replied to BudgietheLittleHelicopter's topic in DCS: A-10C Warthog
Perhaps the problem is with the TMS fwd long? Hi guys, thanks for your replies. My post was a bit hurried and I am not very good with the jargon so my post was not very helpful. I spent the last hour trying to replicate the problem, and failed. I tried the Georgian campaign and the instant action Eastern Georgia easy. However, the TMS forward long command with my Hotas Warthog does not seem to be recognized always. I am wondering whether that is the deeper problem. Note that I checked the joystick itself by using tms forward/up in the set controls menu and there it always registered the button. Just a bit of background I have done all the training missions, completed the main campaign a couple of times, and I am pretty comfortable with the a10c. I routinely select targets on my hud, then switch to the tgp to pinpoint the target for my cluster bombs and do the ccrp bombing. I am very confident that the behaviour of the plane yesterday was different than normal. I'll try to gather some more proof and will add it to this thread. -
When selecting a target with the central piper on the hud (after pressing c), and using tms long to store the target. The target is not saved correctly, but jumps to a different place (I suspect one of the pre-programmed waypoints).

A-10C TGP WHOT/BHOT IR Modes flickering
BudgietheLittleHelicopter replied to EasyEB's topic in DCS: A-10C Warthog
a10c open beta 1.5 tgp building, trees flickering In two of the three TGP view types trees and some buildings are flickering in the open beta. Windows 10, GTX 770, max options. Ignore the top part of the pictures, that is just my poor pasting in paint. Just look at the TGP please. -
I noticed this while playing the standard georgian campaign. Windows 10, GTX 770, no mods, max options, hdr on, lens effect on

What a difference a day makes First time that I have experienced one of my games getting such a big increase in graphics and performance. I hope ED will repeat the Nevada map + red flag campaigns offer on Steam.

When flying over a city with a helicopter quite a few buildings have suddenly changing shadows. To be clear they are not changing due to change of light direction, but rather oscillating a little in width or in other cases it looks likes an extra border of shadow is suddenly being drawn in when you near the building. I am trying to take screenshots, but is quite a challenge to keep the same perspective for two screenshots and not crashing. Windows 10, GTX770

Flickering shadows cockpit Huey
BudgietheLittleHelicopter replied to BudgietheLittleHelicopter's topic in DCS: UH-1H
I should add that this happens at the start of the free flight in Tiblisi on the ground. -
There seems to be something off with the shadows in the Huey cockpit. I can recognize that they are shadows of the rotors, but there seems to be some artifacts and clipping where the shadow passes through the glass. Also there appear to be two sets of rotor shadows with the centres ca two meter apart. I tried to take some screenshots, but they don't show up there. The flickering might be bad for people with epilepsy. I am running windows 10 with a Geforce GTX770.

Thanks ED for this great upgrade of my favourite flight sim. It is not so much a bug, but I find that the landscape textures are very bright. I would describe it as washed out. If the colours were slightly darker it would look much more realistic. In the attached picture you can see how pale the landscape looks compared to the helicopter. Clouds look great by the way.

(Helicopter) patches
BudgietheLittleHelicopter replied to BudgietheLittleHelicopter's topic in DCS: UH-1H
Nice, I hadn't seen that one before. I am looking forward to the Gazelle module, hopefully there is a patch for that too. -
(Helicopter) patches
BudgietheLittleHelicopter replied to BudgietheLittleHelicopter's topic in DCS: UH-1H
Changed the title as I guessed some people might read it thinking there was some new, shiny update. Personally, I wouldn't mind a change to the camera inside the helicopter. Currently, you can turn your neck 360 degrees, it is not healthy... The a10c only allows you to look over your shoulder. It is a minor thing, but would increase realism. -
Update 0.91 Changes -added fuel truck at the start of the run to point people in the right direction -added helipad and Mi-8MTv2 to give you a chance to make an air to air kill in a Huey! The Mi-8 will take off after a few minutes and run up river so you have to reach the base pretty quickly to catch it -added mission description and image to file Clarification: upuaut's Helipads_Cargo mod is required to get armed watch towers and helipad at the base. I love this mod for being able to add some variations to my mod. Thanks upuaut. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=124251 I would love to get some feedback from you guys. Good, bad, ugly ...

What do you guys think of aircraft patches? Somewhere on the web I found a guy who had stuck a few on the back of his Obutto R3volution. Looked really cool. I am thinking of buying the Obutto and customing my chair as well. I found this Huey patch on ebay. I don't care whether it is authentic or not, it looks great. This design is pretty unique. For other aircraft like the F14 Tomcat ones there are lots of poorly made copies on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/120689243861

I started flying the DCS Huey a few weeks ago. Although missions focussed on cargo transports, difficult landings etc are fun, when you are a beginner like me it is nice to have a few more weapons orientated missions. This mission is intended to be available as InstantAction mission, but can also be used as a standard single mission. I look forward to your comments! Description (v0.9) A small convoy is headed towards a base in the mountains. Destroy the APC in the convoy and the two watch towers at the base (in the current version no victory triggers yet, I will add those when I figure it out). Installation You can simply copy the mission file into the normal single mission folder or you can copy it into the QuickStart folder. In the latter case you will need to copy the quickstart file with the file I provided (make sure you back up your original first or use a mod manager). Upuaut's Helipads_Cargo mod is required to get armed watch towers and helipad at the base. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=124251 P.S. I really recommend the Dutch Royal Navy livery by WineNB http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/640640/?sphrase_id=1514709 quickstart.lua UH-1-IA-Canyon Gun Run Easy.miz
