I had the same experience a few weeks ago when my Reverb G2 arrived and while i had pretty good performance with the Rift S on almost max ingame settings (MSAA x2) i had a lot of stutters and a high fps impact when i changed to the G2. First i though it was just because of the much higher Resolution of the G2 and i was prepared to lower some settings, but even with lowest ingame settings, things did not change. I still had some stutters and quite low fps. The only thing that really helped was lowering the SteamVR Resolution to about 50%. A few days later I experimented a bit and changed the ingame settings back to my Rift S standard and set the SteamVR Resolution as low as the native Rift S Resolution. I thought the performance should the be about the same as before, maybe just a bit lower. But it was unplayble and i thought there must be something wrong. I checked a few forums about the Reverb G2 if there is a way to achieve better performance and stumbled upon a website that suggested a few things i haven't tried before (Edit: Website = https://vr4dcs.com/2020/12/24/how-to-nail-reverb-setup/ . One of which was disabling "ghost monitors". I checked my windows display settings and saw that there were 4 new displays above my real monitors. I disabled them and restarted my PC. (I think i also disabled the windows game mode which was suggested there as well). After the restart I launched DCS again and saw a huge performance boost. Since that day I play with 100% Steam VR Resolution and high ingame settings (almost max, just MSAA x2 and Visib Range = high) with about 40 fps and no stutters. No clue what those ghost monitors are and why they pop up when connecting my G2, but they reduced my performance by a LOT. Some suggested this to a few friends with a G2 but some of them didn't see any change, might be worth a try tho.

Did you have a PD Setting of 0.5 in your first 4 flights as well? Do you use Oculus VR or Steam VR to run DCS? I dont know if there is a resolution or PD setting in the oculus software, but steam vr has a resolution slider, which can be increased for better visual quality. Try to increase your PD Setting in DCS to 1.0 first and see if it looks better. Could heavily impact your fps though.

Actually, i kinda want to code that script now :D, i'll try that later today. I'll respond again if it works in MP for me ^^

Ok i think i get what you want now. One could write a lua script that detects if missiles are within a triggerzone and remove any missile that spawns in/penetrates that zone. You would then need to set a zone around each Sam Site, load the script at mission start and the script would do the rest. I think you could even filter for specific attributes, so that for example only enemy missiles would be removed.

This should work, additionally you can add "alarm state = red", the radar should then be active all the time

I think you missed it, its in the map already. Quite small and easy to overlook tho.

Yeah, not checked either. Strange, i already had this problem prior to 2.7

I have the same problem, takes ~65sec to load to main menu and ~45sec to close while in a mission and just a couple of secs to close from main menu. Already did the windows defender exclusions of saved games and main dcs folder. "Run as Admin" is not ticked. Weird problem

Damn, 85 Gigs Update for me ^^

Yes, you can deselect HUD on the EW page so it won't show up.

You mean like this one? https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=244404 ^^

Well that placebo effect works with subjective reports but technical benchmarks showing different results cant be fooled. My fps have an avg improvement of 67% since yesterday in the same scenarios.

I did some benchmarks yesterday in my rift and got 22 fps in the center of Dubai with my Huey. After today's update, I get almost 40 fps in the same test. I really think they got it in...otherwise I can't explain that high change in fps. My RAM is at ~22 of 32 GB in usage, same as yesterday

The option is only available on one station on each wing, should be station 3 and 9.You can use the comms menu to rearm on the ground and change your loadout. Note that your engines have to be turned off to be able to rearm and refuel

Hmm, tried that some time ago, in 2.1 iirc. Got some weird arifacts after some time over Vegas tho. Haven't tested it with the PG Map yet. I'll try that again, thank you ;) edit: Back then i also increased the resolutions in the terrainoptions41.lua , might have been a conflict with that.

I noticed that in the latest Open Beta Update something changed with the Draw Distances. Extreme now looks like what High used to look like. I dont know if that is on purpose or a bug or just on my side. For instance, if i was in external view on a plane at Shiraz and zoomed all the way out, i was able to see the whole city of shiraz with the draw distance option at extreme. Now i can barely see 10% of the Buildings at the lower end of the city

Ich weiß nicht ob ich mich jetzt vertue, aber das hört sich so an als wäre "U" bei dir für den Launch Bar Hebel gemappt und nicht für das automatische einhaken in das Katapult. Schick am besten auch einmal ein Bild von der Tastenbelegung. Dein Stand vor dem Katapult sieht schonmal mehr als präzise aus, ich hab es schon von ganz anderen Positionen geschafft ins Katapult eingehakt zu werden

Ich meine die Grafikeinstellung für die Sichtweite, also so ziemlich die Einstellung, die sich m.M.n. wohl am stäkrsten auf die Performance auswirkt, ja. Die Performance ändert sich aber auch nicht. Die momentane Einstellung scheint wie eingefroren. Zumal der Unterschied zwischen Niedrig und Extrem schon deutlich erkennbar ist, wenn man sie direkt vergleicht, gerade in Las Vegas oder Dubai. Doch seit heute ändert sich da bei mir gar nichts mehr. Ich frage mich nur, ob bei mir bei dem letzten Update irgend etwas schief gelaufen ist, oder ob das ein komischer Bug ist.

Seit dem letzten Open-Beta Update (2.5.4.29585) kann ich die Sichtweite nicht mehr verändern, bzw. wenn ich zwischen Niedrig und Extrem wechsel, gibt es absolut keine Unterschiede im Detailgrad, davon sind alle Maps betroffen. Ist das bei noch jemandem so?

Same thing here...I am using the current open beta and just installed this mod for the first time. I saw the same thing Bluethornton described: DCS wont load any further than the DCS Splash Screen.

Seems like a lot of us have this problem...read about it in another thread. Does not seem to be affected by any kind of AA. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=216744&highlight=bad+AA

Wait a second...Su-30? Or do you mean Su-34? That's the only one I have seen screenshots of. I agree with you that new models take time and that there are always new ones released over time...but my C-130 and E-2 models are still from 2016 and I don't think that could be called recently. Well, I don't even think they are the ones that have to be replaced as they look quite good...more like the Su-30 and Su-17.

Here you go: CD8 Rain.miz Do you have the PG Map? The clouds spawn randomly so you might have to "drive" underneath a cloud.

2 seems to be working great for me so far
