Are you a software developer?

I’m not really sure if our Mig21 is considered Gen 2 or 3. I was reading the definitions of jet generations yesterday, and that talked about Gen3 aircraft being multirole. If that definition is considered appropriate, then IMO the 21 better fits Gen 2, as it was I believe designed in the 50s as an interceptor, with some ground attack capability added later.

Mig21? I believe that’s considered as gen2. It’s very characterful, with its desire to kill its pilot and is a real handful to learn.

Well personally I just plug them in and then open settings/controls.

OK, did some more testing. Took a long flight from the airfield at the top of the map against Ushaia in the cold started Mirage F1. The frame rate was fine on start up and climb to altitude. On diving back to sub 900' (above ground level, NOT sea level) and the frame rate went to pieces. That was after a flight at altitude of approx 200 miles. Tried replicating it, taking off hot started from Mount Pleasant. Tried the F15E, Mirage M2000, Harrier and Mirage F1, all fine regardless of altitude, though I only flew for a short distance in each. I also tried jumping into the F10 view to see if that made any difference, not in these flights. Sorry, ran out of time in the end, will have another go tomorrow.

DCS is definitely NOT limited to 8 controllers as I’m running more than that.

I understand the ask. Have to say that I’d vote more for southern Spain, northern Morocco and Algeria. That could include Operation Torch and with a few older aircraft, elements of the Spanish Civil war. We do already have the i16.

Be aware the IL2 has a limit of 8 controller/devices, as I found it out recently.

I think the map is one of the best out there. The sheer size of it and variety of terrain provides a LOT of opportunities. For example, I have three different naval groups on one of my scenarios, all at vaguely sensible/realistic distances.

By speculating from a position on technical understanding, what do you mean? Game developer, dev for 3rd party, ED employee, Nvidia employee?

Same. Looks different, but definitely NVG

Be careful with where you're going on that thought. Yes, the 7950 does have x2 CCDs, each with 8 cores. However, I get the impression that the two CCDs don't have infinite bandwidth and ability to communicate between each other, meaning that in practical terms, it's more like the Intel style of 8 performance and 8 additional cores, those those additional cores do run quickly.

Right now, both of us are speculating, and creating additional noise for people who just need guidance. I don’t care what your gut instinct tells you. The appropriate solution is to wait for a dev/SME to confirm either way.

Are you a dev? If not, how about waiting for confirmation one way or another? One our views is wrong

This is OB, if you have an issue please: - be more specific about the issues, your system and it’s settings - have you tried the basic recommendations from Flappie - if it’s still an issue, do what is always asked for and attached a log file As is, this is just a thread of “noise”, and there’s no way to help you

If would be good for a Dev to comment from a knowledgeable position.

Just been out testing, taking off from the Falklands islands using both the Apache and F15E. This is using 3080ti, DLAA and settings that happily give 50+ FPS on most other maps in VR with my Meta Quest Pro Rather oddly, it seems to be height related. i.e. with my Apache, below 900 feet and frame rate goes to pieces, i.e. 11fps or lower. During my cold start the FPS was 6. Above 900 feet and it was fine. My GPU was showing as having full memory and maxed out on it's performance. I tried playing with the grass, forest, scenery detail and forest detail. Even nearly minimising most of those seemed to make little difference. Unsurprisingly, that height related issue is a spot of bother on a map that I LOVE to fly down the valleys of. =============================================== Update: Haven't made any changes, but had another go today and it was spot on. Flew my Hind, Apache and Huey both on the mainland and the Falklands island itself with absolutely no issues. In short, false alarm. I'd love to know what's changed. Makes me wonder if the process for creation of the FXO/metashaders hadn't worked yesterday during the load and today it had another go and worked fine. Either way, great news from my side. Loved to be back in the map, particularly so in some of my helicopters. Thanks again Razbam, do love the map.

Chaps, For those of you struggling with 2.9, please do take a look at the linked video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixzeCdeo1Hw It's not very long and in my opinion, should be watched by EVERYONE about to install 2.9. Note that I'm not a member of the AWG and have had no input into the video. Having said that, I DO agree with everything said in the video, and think that it's pretty much a "should watch". Infact I rate it so much, that I'm hoping ED will either replicate or, or link to it themselves as part of their guidance for when 2.9 goes out to the Stable user base. My thanks to the creators of the video. Had me hit the subscribe to channel button.

If it helps anyone, I successfully use the following: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07K7DGKHN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 I use the above straps side to side over the headband for comfort. Dirt cheap and works really well https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07FMYV5H6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 The above is the USB cable. Not expensive, and just works. I data stream AND power the unit with it https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00VE4UJD4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I've ended up with 3 of these powered USB hubs and now run ALL of my USB peripherals off them. My Gigabyte motherboard has had USB failures and I wonder if that's a result of using them to power peripherals.

Gotcha. So the DLSS/DLAA uses the latest AI enhanced logic, cool. Is frame generation planned in the future?

This is the OPEN Beta version. You and some others might wish to consider it as the stable version, but it’s not. There are some implications of effectively being a beta tester

To add to the above, that Civ sim is I believe single threaded and it’s VERY easy to bog it down.

Great summary, thanks

+1 I've just been out in both my Huey and Mirage BE over Dubai. I'm driving my Quest Pro with an old 9700 with a 3080ti. It looks utterly STUNNING! I'm using Mbucchias quad views for dynamic foveated rendering whilst massively helps the frame rate, then DLAA which massive improves the AA. Can't say thankyou enough to your team! Great job!

Hi, just setup my controls for the BE and have been out for a flight. Again, fabulous stuff! I do love all of the variants of the Mirage that you've released so far. A quick question for yourselves. As mentioned, I took the BE out for a flight. Whilst airborne, I flipped into the rear set. VERY cool looking and I could see that I can happily control the joystick, throttle etc. What I noticed was that there were controls in the back for say the radio and nav systems. Their settings were clearly different to those in the front. How does that work on the real aircraft? Are the controls duplicated, do they replicate changes made in the front in the back and is there a method of priority?
