What is a 'new gen engine'?
-
What fps are you getting in game? Because if you are not getting decent fps with that hardware you must being something wrong. P.S leave the 'we' out of this.. and use 'I' instead. Because I do want eye candy.

Thanks.

Thanks c0ff, weird. I compared the backup version supplied & the new version in a program called UltraCompare after i noticed it had been backed up. After comparing it it did re-save it, possibly giving it a new modified date. But I have not applied any mods or tweaks for these water effects. No idea why there would be two foam.jpg in there. I have a list of files i apply after backup: CDU_init.lua graphics.cfg High.lua PVI_init.lua ViewportHandling.lua I can't explain it. Thanks for you time. -
In terms of fun, most certainly. In terms of CPU calculations I have no idea. ROF certainly does not have much to do in terms of avionics ;) edit: also ROF has no ground forces.. only very simple old kites.

Bazar/Effects/WaterEffects.zip All the rest i modified. But I have no mods or tweaks associated with Bazar/Effects/WaterEffects.zip Hope it helps. -
You simply can't compare DCS to a FPS game... they are like chalk & cheese. End of story. (DCS is obviously the cheese) :D

Thanks as ever Mustang.

* removed report while i figure out wtf is going on ** Initial report now seems wrong. OK.. title is a little misleading, but i have figured what is going on... You cannot have two templates with the same name for different countries. This has caused me soooo many head aches in the past, but i've only just figured out wtf is going on. Want a Russian template called 'convoy' or 'farp'. if you then make a US, Georgian or any other country template with the same name it will overwrite the previous template with the same name. Arrrggghhhh this explains so many of my vanishing templates. I'm not sure if this is a bug report or a heads up. But its extremely annoying.
-
Thanks for the heads up.
-
Its only a small thing but when you click on 'save' you get no indication whether the button has been clicked or not. I find this a bit disconcerting and often have to use the file>save as to be sure it has been saved correctly. Be nice if the button highlighted or similar when clicked.

Minor bug. Fire from destroyed watch towers burns in the air.

Please add the ability to make templates from all static objects. i.e make it possible to make groups from them. Thanks

Thanks, I'm not breaking at all, as i thought you used rudder to steer the tail wheel, and used breaks as little as possible. (according to the training & manual) I don't have pedals or the keys for individual wheel breaks assigned.... I'll need to sort this out and try again. Thanks for your help. :thumbup:

The latest update moved the WaterEffects.zip file to my _backup folder. This is not a file that I modified. \DCS World\_backup.000\Bazar\Effects\WaterEffects.zip This means you cannot simply copy the folder back across with confidence. For people who use other peoples mods this could cause issues as they may not know what files make up the mods they install. This might be a one off... but i certainly won't be copying the contents of the backup folder without having to thoroughly check each time. I've attached the successful update log that should show the WaterEffects.zip being moved, and maybe why. autoupdate.zip -
Manual - P128 Ok i'm having issues. If i have to unlock the wheel, which according to Viper should not be often, (which in my P51 newbie state i'm having to do too often), I'm getting stuck. I unlock to make a sharp turn... starts off ok, but them when i want to relock the wheel I'm unable to. I simply can't get the wheel within the 6 degree restriction again, and end up going around in concentric circles. I attempt to straighten the wheel and then lock by pushing the stick forward. I am hearing a 'click' noise when i attempt this. Once i unlock and start a tight turn i effectively can then only turn in that direction. :doh:

EDIT: after bug reporting and getting response from c0ff this file was altered from the original.. how i'm not sure, certainly not intentionally. So copying the backup folder should work.. (but i'm still gonna be checking closely!)

:thumbup: Thank you.

Yes they will all be available, at release. Unless i'm very mistaken. Mastiff, they will all be available. But only the F15c has received an updated cockpit. (going be last announced info) Quoted from Wags's official announcement.

Pretty please with sugar on top can we have a different modifier.lua file for each module. My requirements for modifiers vary greatly between the different modules. For example in A10-c I use 3 modifiers on my X52pro but in the P51 i'd like to use none. But unfortunately the modifiers are universal. So effectively there are 3 buttons unavailable to me on my HOTAS when I fly the P51. Thanks, and i hope you can consider this.

Every time i've updated I've had an error. I do eventually get them to complete, but never 1st time. I've tried the latest update about 5 times. Just tried again.. 2 attempt this morning worked :) -
It was my (assumed) understanding that version 1.2.1 was the version to make World compatible with FC3. I'd also assume any updates needed for World due to changes in FC3 could be covered by a mini patch via autoupdater. A few assumptions there.. but that is what i'd put my money on.

Do you run/use any mods / modified files?
