Snails161

I heard 2 weeks?

i dont suppose you can redo the campaign with the channel map....i know its a big ask but id certainly buy it

I wasn’t going to bother with this module as i have most of the others but very rarely fly most of them (f14,f5,gazellebeing the exception) but i watched a hind walk round video on you tube and thought COOL, so just signed up :)

This thread is laughable, grown men ( I take it?) moaning and and squabbling over a games release date?? Surely it’s done when it’s done. Where not awaiting a cure for cancer! As much as I want to fly a sim based F14 it doesn’t consume my whole day. Heatblur if your reading this just do what needs to be done a release when your happy. I signed up for this module months ago and I’ve plenty of other stuff to fly as I’m sure we all have.

I’m just wondering what the average age is on this forum, reading some of the above posts I would argue about 4, on seeing the large amount of teddy’s being thrown into a corner. Legal action....? Grow up or go and play minecraft

Jesus.....can nobody wait for anything anymore!! It’s pre order, you don’t have to buy it. 2018, jan feb March who cares. I’m pretty excited to fly it but I’ve a load of other aircraft that I’m only 10% competent in flying so I’ll fly them till it’s ready..stop moaning, it’s worse than kids waiting for Xmas day

That’s the burning question. I’m thinking of buying s new MSI laptop (i9 with 1080) but I’m waiting out until these updates come online.

Hopefully the new VR improvement promised by ED will be the nirvana we are all looking for

Does this work for those playing in VR? I’m away at the moment but fingers crossed. If so what do we set DSR at?

I'd just settle for a decent frame rate and no stuttering (in VR you don't notice the icing, just the cake)

Hi, I'll post when I'm back at my laptop but try working the other way. I found higher settings way better. Off the top of my head though Terrain high Water high View distance high No traffic No heat blur Textures high Mssa 8Q No dust No HDR though it will run just knocks 10fps off FOV off AA off No shadows on terrain or cockpit V sink off Disable ??? Can't remember what it's called on Full screen on PD 1.3 get about 20 dpd less on 1.5 I bought Normandy map but haven't downloaded yet as I'm away in Middle East working. And yes night time isn't black it has a green hue to it??? Hope that helps

Hi guys, I don't know if this helps anyone but was getting really bad stutter in dcs, on all maps. That was however until I turned my internet connection off???? It's now a stable(ish) 90 Fps in vr with no stutter to be seen! I don't know if it's just my system but worth a try. I'm running a MSI ge72 laptop with 1070 graphics card and 16gb of ram.

I have the T16000 Hotas setup, flight stick very responsive and crisp, throttle feel a little plastic like, but throttle action buttery smooth, I'd recommend it to any one. Got mine on amazon for £94

Same here, I change my settings constantly trying to find the best FR vs Quality. That particular mission is unplayable. I'm really hoping that 2.5 will be hugely optimised for VR as well as for normal monitors. I seem to spend more time trying to find the sweet spot than actually flying any missions.

I think you will find that was you lol

Guys thanks for all the help, much appreciated, however....and this is the weirdest thing...in my last session using the f5e module, free flight as a benchmark I noticed large frame rate drops near the dam, all this was water on low along with most other things, but for some reason I thought I'd go the other way and stuck visibility to high...problem solved 45fpm steady. Not only that I found that I can run with detail and ground textures on high as well??? So In in a nutshell Detail high Ground high Water high Visibility ultra Shadows low Dirt off Flare on MSA x4 HDR on Cockpit 256( can't see a difference to 1024) Of 1.5 Antrascopic filter x16 V sink off Terrain shadows flat 45fps with asw on, the only drop being over Vegas( but still flyable)

Thanks guys, I'll keep plodding on. It's too good to give up on. One last thing though what PD are most of you settling with?

I'm running a pd of 1.6 and I think I've tried every combination of settings under the sun, any tips or advice is most welcome.

I bought a brand new all singing MSI system, 1070 graphics card, 16gb ram and a nice new oculus rift to throw myself into VR flying and initially it was great..... but now I seem to spend more time trying to balance everything to get a nice decent stable framework than I do flying! Don't get me wrong it's immersive until it starts juddering and slowing down. Anything other than a simple mission is like watching a slideshow...I hope I nice big VR fix is coming our way with 2.5 or I feel my days of VR flying are over:(

+1 thought it was just me... terrible frame rate no matter where I fly and on what setting

Mbot, firstly just to say I can't get enough of your campaign, I play little else now to be honest. I'm not sure how much work is involved but I would love to see this for other planes. A10c for instance. I'm playing the F5 campaign presently but will try the mig21 as soon as I learn to fly it. Great work all round.

Mmmmmm I was wondering that? Can we expect this in an update or is it a Mod?
