Thank You, SVK Fox!! I saved every one of those screenies!!

:clap_2: That is the coolest stick I have ever seen!! :thumbup:

That site sent me a message saying I had to be a member for two years before they would allow a paypal to webmoney exchange!! I probably did something wrong, but tried them first and it didn't work...

try this delta, I haven't gotten it to work yet, and have tried other sites, but I'm sure this should work eventurally when i have time to figure it out! http://www.transmoney.ru/

Anybody know how to get paypal funds into WMZ purse?!

Ok, great, can you please tell all the rest of us how to do it, and who you went through??!! I tried a couple sites, and no go... please give me advise!!

uggghh, having major headaches trying to get paypal to webmoney exchanged... I might quit that and try buying a couple copies and having them shipped from qpig.ru...thanks for the guide hellmutt!! Question-- has anyone tried paying by Western Union instead of credit card?? (im in Canada) My wife is having fits about using the cards online, not that i blame her... I would really like to know if this works, I'd like to be playing Black Shark in the next coulple weeks!!

Hey thanks for all the info guys!! @ peter22, I wasn't able to find a site that exchanged paypal until I clicked on your link, now I'm just awaiting verification!! Hopefully it goes quickly.... :bounce:

Yeah, thats right, default scenery on high! Anyway, I did some more experimenting with this mod and found its not only the bloom but also the shadow that works... I made an .ini file with bloom set to =0 [off] and shadow set high, [dont forget to set shadow to =1] and took a coupla screenies with and without the Skymod. [ATTACH]21095[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]21096[/ATTACH] These are taken with the Skymod [thanks Antonio!] and HDRmod uninstalled.... [ATTACH]21097[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]21098[/ATTACH] And these are the results of the HDR mod with bloom turned off, and shadows turned on. I turned the shadows up high to show the contrast, all the better to show it actually works!! I really hope this works in Black Shark!!

Ahhh, I've got an IDEA!! We open a neutral bank account... stay with me here.... We pool our resources, some of us may need to take on an extra paper route or pizza delivery job... together we can get a Ka-52!!!! Simmers UNITE!!!

E61 is right, those are the mods.

here's a couple pics with the HDR mod and AntonioGatti's sky mod. Unfortunatly tekateka's treeshademod2.0 does not work with Antonio's mod installed, but I will not be using the SkyMod all the time anyway. By the way, I made two different .ini's; one for use with Skymod, one for regular use. [ATTACH]21047[/ATTACH] As you can see, the shadows stand out too much... [ATTACH]21048[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]21049[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]21050[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]21051[/ATTACH]

O.K. no problem! I just finished really testing this HDR mod and took a lot of screenshots, and saved a lot of different configurations of the .ini, so if you see a screenshot you like, and want to try the .ini just let me know and I'll post it on here!! Here are my findings: :smartass: 1. BloomPowerDay, BloomFadeTime, DarkeningAmount, DarkeningAmountDay, and Illumination have the biggest impact on visuals. Bloom and Illumination are self-explanatory, but the DarkeningAmountDay has a massive impact; shown below. I have D.A.D set at 15; [ATTACH]21042[/ATTACH] ...and 50; [ATTACH]21043[/ATTACH] ...and 100; [ATTACH]21045[/ATTACH][ATTACH]21046[/ATTACH] As you can see, huge differences are seen. Not much between 50 and 100, but a huge difference between 15 and 50!!

How about a Saitek Evo Force :D Someday I'll try fusing the Evo and X52

Sure! I DL'd Bramski's tweaked .ini from post #112, and replaced it. It was close to what I wanted, but not excactly... So, I opened the original enbseries .ini - and the tweaked .ini so that I could compare the differences between values. I've got some time so I'll give you a breakdown on what I found and did: Bramski's Original/Br's New/My New value. BloomFadeTime=1600/changed to 150/ I set it to =250 I think this was the major factor, but I'll let you decide for yourself...I did more tweaks than just this. Here's my .ini so you can try for yourself!! :thumbup: [ATTACH]20993[/ATTACH]

Just thought I'd bump this thread and show a couple of screens I took this morning. I've recently upgraded my computer, and since DCS:BS wont be out for a while in NA, I thought I'd try out Flaming Cliffs for the first time. :joystick: Now I have my X52 bound, got my mods installed, [thanks all for the wonderful mods!!] and am giving my E8500 C2D a workout! -not to mention his buddy, the GTX260 Core216 Superclocked edition graphics card... Am really loving this HDR mod, I toned it down a little but looks pretty:D :pilotfly: [ATTACH]20981[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]20982[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]20983[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]20984[/ATTACH]

@ Hitman, Is FEX compatible with DX10??

Well, -if it is- I would hope to see an English demo soon!

Thanks for the advise. BTW, I figured out my issue with my profile, if you have a Saitek you may appreciate this... I had bound the 1,2, and 7 keys to my mode switch; Nav, Air and Ground, respectively. This caused a little headache for some reason and I deleted the keystrokes. This caused some kind of glitch in the SST soft that caused my lockon profile to use 100% of one core of my E8500. I remedied by clicking the key 'box', and selecting 'unprogrammed' as the state. Apparently deleting the keys is NOT the correct solution... Like I said, 'buggy' software!

the SST programming software is buggy, I hope I can map most things from in game without a conflict. I just reinstalled LO:FC and made a new x52 profile; and for some reason that particular pr0. profile uses a massive amount of CPU when I load it...

Whatever, just get me the demo before I :spam_laser: somebody... ...all this naysaying and chickenlittle behavior will dissappear as soon as the game is available...I hope! [i mean available legally, of course!]

As far as I'm concerned, everything that needed to be said was in the first post; all reply's thereafter should be deleted and the 'Open Letter to the Community' should be stickied... Once again, thank you ED and associates for looking after the best interest of Black Shark, and by extension, the real community!

The same old story... A few spoil it for many... Released late Winter.

@ HitchHikingFlatlander, "If you think thats a lot of work then you're the kinda guy that needs a single joystick, rather than a X52, Cougar, or CH set up. The whole point of a HOTAS is in its name Hands On Throttle And Stick............... at least IMO!" This statement is what I was responding to, and I took it as an affront to my personal character, and may have responded harshly, so for that I apologize. The last thing we need around here is more drama, so I'm going to drop the whole matter post haste!! Besides, I'm too excited to program my new keyboard to even worry about it!! :thumbup:

Personally, I tried to stick to the 'real' ka50 controls on the X52, and broke it down into the 3 modes; Nav [includes takeoff/landing] Attack, and Autopilot. (i.e. Hat3 will adjust the shkval gate and fov size in Nav mode, and Hat3 will also adjust the landing light if I have the pinkie shift depressed. In Attack mode, it will be similar, but the pinkie shift will select hardpoints instead.) I haven't finished mapping my stick yet, but I'll post it when its done. The keyboard I will buy today will give me the option to have the Datalink panel, or PVI mapped to the NumPad.
