  1. Thanks so much. I knew I was missing something! Cheers
  2. Hi there I have the exact same problem. I can't get Urbi's paints to show. Only a default with no numbers exactly as "toan" has posted above. I have followed the format that RaptorFighter has posted above and every other possible variation of folder structure but I just can't seem to get it to show. I'm assuming the entry.lua needs to be updated manually to show the new skins. Anyways, any advise would be appreciated. And for the record, my folders are setup exactly as RaptorFighter has shown above. Thanks and great MOD btw!!!
  3. Don't mean to be a bother or side track this original thread but... which one is this? I downloaded it, but it sorta looks like the "chiller" one. Is that correct or is this something different? I only ask because I love the other mod, but I don't use it because it costs me the C model, which I can't part with. Does this do the same or can I run both. Anyways thanks and sorry if this question is misguided!
  4. This carrier looks fantastic. Amazing job. Love the color palette that was used. The deck and overall surfaces look so realistic, at least to my eyes! After placing a few static deck crew around the joint, this thing gives the supercarrier a run for its money! Only small thing I noticed was the ship's props not turning whilst underway, but otherwise, great job and thank you very much!!
  5. Hi Admiral Just wanted to say thanks for all the ships. Just downloaded the sub and its looking really good! *Also, I'm only posting this pic here because I don't know anyone in real life that's particularly interested in this sort of stuff. Literally, right after downloading your sub, my girlfriend came into my man cave and asked what is that really strange looking ship outside. We have a small ocean view and we are looking out across the Georgia Straight to the mainland from Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. I stood up, looked out the window and was very surprised to see this!! See pic from my home office window!! It is the USS Michael Monsoor, Zumwalt class destroyer. wtf!! (I can only assume that it is testing stuff at Nanoose bay which is just a mile or so to the left of the picture. It is an underwater munitions testing area which I believe is used by the US Navy as well are our little Canadian forces. Everett Washington is a large US base just a few hours south of us and I assume that is where it came from) Anyways, I hope someone else finds this interesting! Cheers
  6. I would really love to use this map but because of the memory consumption, I just can't!!! Maxes out my 16gb and I get crashes if I spend too long in the ME setting up missions here. I just stopped using it. I check in here periodically to see if there is an update or fix but I never seem to see any new info!! Does anyone know what's going on with this map? Its the only one that gives me trouble. I don't own the Channel Map, but I own all the others and they all work great!! Any update or insights would be much appreciated!!! thx
  7. Thank you for the replies. I'm usually on top of all the interesting things going on with modding/discord, etc. But I missed this one completely! Cheers!
  8. I've never felt so uncool. I can't seem to find this elusive mod anywhere. I keep seeing people talk about it, but I can't find it. Would anyone care to give me a hint or something? Thx
  9. Hi there Just thought I'd throw this up here. I just finished an acrylic painting of a Corsair. It took almost a month, but I'm pretty pleased with the final result. I found the original photograph on the internet and did my best to recreate & enhance it. In hindsight, I wished I picked a slightly less challenging image! That lettering was not so fun!! haha! Anyways hope you like it! Cheers Eric
  10. I hear ya about the new system. It is crazy right now and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Which is why I'm going to throw everything including the kitchen sink at solving this. As far as NVCP settings. I'm a little ashamed to admit it, but I'm off work atm due to an injury, so I've dedicated more time than I'd like to admit to this little issue over the past week or so. I have set and reset every single possible setting that I have access to. I've even completely reinstalled DCS at one point the other day. You name it, I've tried everything, I swear. It just feels like I'm missing something simple, because up until the other day when I started mucking around with my graphic settings, everything was running great. I basically had 2 days or so with 2.7 that were phenomenal. Then....?!? who knows. I even uninstalled a recent window 10 update that was said to be causing issues. Again, no joy! From the very beginning of DCS, I've never encountered an issue that I couldn't solve myself or with the help of you awesome fellas on this forum, but this one is proving to be a real bugger! Thanks again
  11. No worries. It was kind of you to help. I was going to first try and install the DCS stable version to see if 2.7 beta is giving me the issue. Then I think its time to start actually checking the physical stuff. I will start with a good dust out as it does need it. Then I'll try disconnecting and reconnecting some stuff. Unfortunately, I don't have another gpu at this time. I have been holding out to build a whole new system, but maybe that timeline needs to be sped up a bit! haha In the meantime I will give my trusty ol' 1080ti a really good once over and see if I can't get to the bottom of this. Thanks again!
  12. Hi AD Thanks for your input. I tried the G-Sync Demo and everything seems to be working well. Both of my monitors are gsync 165hz, but I only use 1 at a time for DCS. (both connected to pc but I switch between them using "show only 1" or "show only 2". My #2 monitor is attached to my sim rig right next to my desk. I do some testing whilst sitting in my office chair and for actually flying, I jump into my rig that sits right next to my desk. This issue shows on both monitors so I don't think its monitor specific. I always have vsync on in NVCP and always off in the sim. Obviously I tried a ton of different variations of that during this troubleshooting but to no success. Anyway, that is my default set up and Nvidia Ultra Low Latency mode is always OFF. I downloaded CRU as you suggested and checked my g-sync range on both monitors. 30-165 hz, so I believe I am all good there. I also went into Device Mgr as suggested and deleted the few extra profiles (4 to be exact) that were in there. Unfortunately none of the above seemed to have any effect on my stuttering terrain while taxiing. Frame rates were consistent around 70 and gpu usage was inconsistent from 95% with drops to around 50% that seemed to occur during the stutters, but not completely. I may be reading into that phenomenon a little too much. Anyway, I really do appreciate your time and help ...but so far no luck. Take care Eric
  13. Hi Lange_666 Thanks for helping. TrackIR on or off makes no difference Refresh rate and fps cap makes no difference. I tried many different refresh rates, and fps caps as well as turning off gsync & using vsync on or off, etc. Nothing made a difference I have not installed the stable version to try that out but that may be my next step. I have 466.11 current drivers installed, but I rolled back to the previous driver as well, but no improvement. As you suggest, I could try going further back but honestly, DCS worked great on my last drivers .....and now its not for some reason?!? I don't think its related to drivers. Then only changes I've made in the past week or so since the release of 2.7 that seemed to trigger this issue was I happened to watch a Spudknocker video on youtube and thought I would try out his suggested settings to make sure I was getting the best experience I could with 2.7. I had always ran, 2xmsaa in game and in the nvidia cp I would run fxaa on and ssaa x2 with enhance application x2. No in game vsync, just my gsync and fullscreen, no fps cap. This is what has been the best for me for almost 2 years now. I saw that he runs in game ssaa at 1.5 and msaa x2. In the nvidia cp he doesn't use anything and he doesnt run fullscreen. So I tried his settings. They looked a bit better but I lost over 25fps. I then went back to my original settings. I also noticed I was getting a crash or 2 with 2.7, so I decided to add a pagefile. Not sure if that helped but no more crashes so maybe. After doing that I also realized I had a lot of mods and figured I should just completely reinstall DCS clean. Just for a good 2.7 experience. After all that messing around is when my issue started the other day. Now I can't seem to get back to my happy place. I definitely upset something... or its just a huge coincidence that my hardware is failing now!?! Additionally, I changed my windows power setting from balanced to performance, no change. I also wiped my saved game file and created a new one, no change. I did notice one thing strange though. In the aspect ratio box in the settings menu, it had always defaulted to 1.7888 or something like that with my 2560x1440 resolution. After starting fresh with a new saved game file, I noticed that the aspect ration box defaults to 1.3333 instead, still with 2560x1440. Not sure what that was about. In the past, you could choose 16x9 but it would still default to 1.78888 something. Now if I choose 16x9 after initial startup and then restart, it shows as 1.3333. Strange and most likely unrelated, but who knows? Anyways, it doesn't seem that anything I do is having a positive effect. This one is driving me crazy! Thanks again
  14. Thanks for the reply. Ya I don't know what's going on? I really can't seem to figure this one out.. Guess I'll just keep digging! Thx
