  1. Yep, could be corrupt. I will go ahead and remove all of it, do the LO install with just FC2 instead of FC and FC2 and see what happens. I was really surprised to see that in the flanker...over 200fps.....wow...... Will post back after I remove it all, defrag and reinstall.... Thanks
  2. thanks distiler, checking -that- file.....:-)
  3. Nevermind that, I think I see what the issue is....the A10. I can do the quickstarts in all the missions except the A10 and I am in the mid 100's, even seen 230fps in the su33, 100's in the mig29.....the A10 is sinking my rig for sure..... Anything I can tweak on just the A10? Thanks
  4. Oh, I took a look at graphics.cfg. Beings that I am running 1920x1200, could this be the issue: ? DisplayMode { resolution = {1024, 768}; bpp = 32; fullscreen = 0; aspect = 1.333333333; Interface { resolution = {1024, 768}; bpp = 32; fullscreen = 0; aspect = 1.333333333; } Simulation { resolution = {1024, 768}; bpp = 32; fullscreen = 1; aspect = 1.333333333; } AVI { resolution = {640, 480}; fullscreen = 0; aspect = 1.3333; } } Modes are at 1024x768. Maybe I am reading this wrong or looking at the wrong file? Thanks
  5. Thanks EB ChasCF Asparagin and Distiler..... I check and I have the latest nvidia drivers 197.13. I have ran a defrag as well last night. System fully scanned for viruses/spyware, nothing there. I have AHCI set on all my drives. I did have them set to IDE, but changed over to AHCI and it didn't make a difference. Basically, my system is: Intel Core I7-965EE@3.60Ghz|EVGA X58|6MB Corsair Dominator 1600Mhz|EVGA GTX295|Ultra 120 Air cooled|Corsair HX1000W PSU|Antec Nine Hundred Case|3xWD 500Gb AHCI|WD External 500Gb backup|26" Gateway HiDef|Klipsh 200W surround|Saitek X-52 Pro|G25 Racing Wheel|All bolted down to the desk with 2 security cables -) In game settings are as follows: Textures-high Scenes-high Civ Traffic-Yes Water-Normal Visible Range-High Heat Blur-On (have switched on and off, don't see any difference) Shadows-All planar Resolution-1920x1200 Aspect-16:10 Monitors-1 screen Res of cockpit displays-1024 I have the identical settings in DCS Black Shark. Now that sim is smooth as butter...90's to 100's in the pit, shkval on the lowest I have seen is 40's. I have tried a mission without the clouds and it does raise the fps's but it still drops in the teens...kinda crazy eh? I just wish I could pinpoint that issue, this is a beautiful sim......just need it smoothed out and whatever is taxing my system go away lol. You know, whats even more strange I have noticed.....It seems that AA has no effect in this game no matter what I set it to in the NV control panel. I can set it to 2x or 16xQ and it looks the same....still jagged as ever. I'm not sure if maybe this has something to do with it? Not sure, just wish I could figure it out. Thanks again, still trying away.....
  6. Well guys I tried enhancer. It smoooothed things out alot, no more jumping around on the frame rates, but still....it sucks at best. Not directing this towards ED or anything at all, just need some help on my rig. I can run BS in cockpit around 70-110 fps and it does not stutter like this. Maybe a slight stutter when loading terrain but thats about it. I can turn on the shkval in BS and the lowest it will hit is around 40. I remember FC did the same thing. When you first pan around the cockpit it locks up and when getting near cities especially with a factory/smokestack, it drops to nothing...in the teens. Just seems like it should run pretty good with an i7-960 overclocked, 6gigs corsair and a gtx-295. Runs like a dog though.... And, what's weird, is no matter if I set nvidia control panel to override AA settings, setting on 2x or 16Q, it still has the jaggies big time. Wonder if this is a driver issue on my rig? Maybe I should uninstall FC and just do LO with FC2? Any thoughts? Thanks again, I am trying to get this thing smooth, it is one bad butt sim.... V3T
  7. I am running vista 64 bit ultimate...
  8. Hey guys thanks for the replies. I will give the cockpit res and nhancer a shot tonight after work and see how it goes. Appreciate it!
  9. Settings are at medium, no mirrors or anything. AA set to 16x, if I drop it down to 8 or 2, it gets worse. Nope, don't have icq, browser or voice chat going at all, not doing MP yet. Black Shark, with settings maxed except water at normal, is getting 90's. Mirrors on it drops to around 70's. BTW, I like that both interfaces are the same, pretty cool. Still don't see why FC2 is in the basement with the frame rates. Well at least it is playable at 30fps so far, just laggy compared to BS. Thanks
  10. Thanks lawndart and topdog for the replies. Now that I understand it, I have vsync enabled :-). It seems smoother with vsync on, not quite as jerky as before. I changed the maxfps to the vsync value as EB suggested and I got a few more fps, around upper 30's on average. Still a little in the basement, but it got a little bit better. Appreciate it and thanks for the help.
  11. Thanks EB for the reply. I will give that a shot and see how it goes. Question for ya, I have always ran vsync off, or rather force it off..is it better to have vsync enabled? Probably smoother gameplay maybe? I will post back once I get this set and see how it goes. Thanks again.
  12. Hi I have Black Shark, FC 1.12 and just purchased FC2. I have an I7-960 overclocked at 3.6, 6gigs Corsair dominator and an Evga GTX-295. Black shark usually runs in the mid 90's to 100's in the pit depending on what is going on. Loaded up FC2 and best I can get is around 40 or so, usually hanging in the 30's. I also notice a LOT of freeze/pauses ect, kinda like stuttering. Anyone else having this or any advise? Thanks
  13. Hi I have BS, LO 1.12 and awaiting LO 2! Can't wait and will be WELL worth the money spent, you guys make the best flight sims ever. Just two questions: I noticed that Glowing Aamram posted some training videos for version 2.0. Is there going to be an English version of these videos? What is the best way to download the videos from Youtube, is there a program that can do this? Thanks Tony
  14. JimMack I just got it! Late this afternoon and I have it in my hands. It is wonderful and I appreciate your help, thanks!
  15. Hey thanks Dusty, feeling better day by day. It's a slow process but it's getting better. Glad to hear from you too!
  16. Hey Basset just checking have you got your copy yet? I haven't seen mine today although I was hoping for it. Thanks
  17. Kirai and Bobbero thank you both for the replies. I had no idea they just send it regular mail, I figured it would have some kind of tracking on it. Well, I guess I just need to delete that post and sit back a while and wait. It just seems like something is wrong to me knowing that another person got theirs within in week timeframe, and I get the other manual that was ordered the same day from them in 5 days. Mine is definately lost by now. I wish I had known that or I would have never ordered it this way. I should have waited a few days until gogamer got it in stock and I would have had it by now for sure. I am not mad at ED at all I am just frustrated at the situation, I had no idea that it would take up to a month and a half to get here, and then if it doesn't then we will have to start asking the postal service what happened. I think that they should put that somewhere on the page when ordering it so that people would expect this to happen if it does, just my personal opinion. I will go ahead and delete the rant because I am not mad at ED if it seems that way, it is just a bad situation. Thanks again for replying and letting me know what everybody thought. Patiently waiting Viper3Two
  18. Much appreciated! And, maybe by some miracle mine shows up, I will post as well...not to ention probably remove that post above. Thanks again man!
  19. hmmm, well let me know when it arrives, I am curious. Just weird that somebody who lives under 500 miles from me gets theirs in 6 days and mine has been 12 so far and that response just nailed me a little....wait six weeks, I really didn't like that and had to say something about it. I hate like heck to be griping but that wasn't right. I will wait a few more days I guess, thanks for the reply. Appreciate ya!
  20. Original post has been deleted by me. It was posted in frustration at the situation. Viper3Two
  21. Post has been deleted, put up other post in payment forum. Thanks.
  22. I am waiting on mine still, I ordered from ED on August 31st both the Flaming Cliffs Manual and the DCS BS Manual, Flaming Cliffs arrived Sept 4th, but have not seen the DCS BS Manual.
  23. Thank you Tez! I will reply via email. Tony aka viper3two
  24. Hello I have both LO-MAC Flaming Cliffs and DCS Blackshark, and enjoy them both. I also have recently purchased the Flaming Cliffs manual and the DCS Blackshark manual. I made both of these purchases on August 31st. I have checked both lockon.ru and digitalcombatsimulator.com under my user name, viper3two, and they both say "sent 09-01-2009". I recieved the Flaming Cliffs manual on September 4th. I have yet to recieve the DCS Blackshark manual, and I would like to know what happened or what is going on with it. I have sent 3 emails with no response, and I would appreciate it if somebody can give me status of my order. Since I ordered the manual, here in the US, gogamer.com now has the manual available and I could have had it days ago, but I can't get an answer on what happened to my order? The order number for the DCS Blackshark manual: The unique reference for this transaction is: TXNJNRP3AFACSM3KFX Thank you Tony aka viper3two
  25. hey thanks fox, I went ahead and ordered mine from ED. I figure if it's gonna be another 2 weeks before gogamer gets it and then another week of shipping from california from them, thats 3 weeks, so surely I will get it before 3 weeks coming from ED. Appreciate it guys! I think the manual is worth 50 bux, doesn't matter, I'd pay $100 for the sim and the manual each, it's awesome!
