Oh, thanks, you are right. Did not think about that.

I found a video that somehow shows carrier refueling by a fuel ship. How was that done? Is this really possible in dcs?

Hm, im actually very much interested in the new map. Any preview video showing off night time? It is suppose to be much better than now. Just love viggen at night and vr, but currently it is too dark.

These answers are so tipical dcs user that it made me smile.

Actually I was amazed how many of the YouTube’s where able to cold start the f18. This is nothing your everybody YouTube star can. Heck I probably won’t find the time to learn the procedure by heart. And froogle was exited and his excitement was contagious.

I really enjoy the viggen with a mission I created. There are a bunch of f15 und f16 and they are very busy dodging missiles from an enemy ship. Ships have a very wide weapon range. I then hit the ship with anty ship missile and it sinks. After that I try to land the viggen. Try, because the scenario is in a storm and at night. It is quite unique feeling. You feel very lonely in such a stormy weather. As I never was able to tell my Ai wingman to also hit the ship (bug?) there is a 50% chance, that I have to rearm, as this ship can handle several missile hits. Unfortunately night missions are impossible in vr since quite a while and so I left my viggen unused for quite some time. I have to wait for night flight to be fixed by eagle dynamics. The last 2 patches mentioned some fix, but I did not test the mission yet. Must admit, that I really would enjoy the rain drops on the viggen canopy in hopefully near future.

Today's update does not seem to fix the Gazelle TV. I was hoping, as they mentioned that it fixes A-10 TV.

Agree. It has lots of character and is something else to fly. So, really looking forward to the tomcat. Although, it will be difficult to beat this kind of character.

Wow, one simple LOL and everybody is getting exited and angry. All this insecurity. Relax people. Buy what you want or need. We are different in our needs. Accept that.

A Must buy for me.

This is probably the best manuals we ever got. Very nice. It helps me a lot to actually identify where is what on this bird. Will need to spend much more time delving into it. Thanks Baltic Dragon!

It is time for an update of the user manual. We now have one version and the changes since the last manual update are a lot. To reach a higher number of users, Eagle Dynamics is currently pushing DCS world with a new web front and videos. Soon this version will be released on Steam. New users will have a hard time with that old manual.

There are several effects that can be experienced in the ruft. The first and most obvious one is that we can turn our head and tilt our view to any direction and it looks as if we are within the world of the simulation. It feels like 3D compared to the normal 2d monitor. The second effect is that most of us can sense distances better than on a 2d monitor. You look down and the ground is actually 100m below. This can be felt because every eye gets to see a slightly different image of the world. But because our eyes are not equally strong and they never change focus in the rift, this effect is not felt exactly as in real life and felt more or less strong by different individuals. The third effect is the 3D sound effect you hear when you move your head slightly. This effect is the worst simulated in vr and can cause artifacts like sound sources not feeling at aconstant spot. In your case, when you say, that you experience 3D, do you mean the first or the second effect, or both?

Somebody should create an album. It is a beautiful bird.

My contribution.

Most games that use direct x 12 show no performance improvement or even are slower. See battlefield 1. I believe that DCS would profit much more from distributing the AI logic on multiple CPU cores. At least for single player scenarios. Not sure what would help for multi player.

Genau. Ich vermisse Lösungsvorschläge für VR. Wir müssen da nämlich mit einer sehr bescheidnen Auflösung leben und kein AA. Die reinste Flimmer-Show.

Looks like bad timing. Everybody is on edge waiting for 2.5 merger. They have been waiting for longer than anticipated.

Interesting thread. Looks as if we all experience very different CPU usage. I fly single player but in VR and I have 25% showing in task manager. That is 25% on a 4 core system with 4 threads. So 2 cores running 100%.

I agree that 2.5 merge is a must now. Cannot Stress that enough. But i believe that it will be mostly 2.2 with new Caucasus map. Otherwise we cannot expect the merge to happen within weeks. And, i‘m quit satisfied with what 2.2. it is a good start into the next year.

Kiowa Is a must have for dcs. Would immediately get it.

Shorter missions are appreciated. Better sized in VR. I am also not a good pilot, but would like to play campaigns , which was until now not possible, as they need much more skills. What I do not like is that if I cannot accomplish all goals of a mission is, that the next one gets harder. I know it sounds realistic, but if I cannot accomplish all goals, then because the mission was too difficult for me. Making the next one extra difficult is frustrating. Better add a short inbetween mission, just to hit the missing goal.

Oh, did not even know about this setting.

Sorry, that was not clear to me. Can you refrase it?

Wow, beautiful city. In the simulation all the cities look so east block Beton square everything looks the same. In reality they actually have breathtaking beauty. Thanks for sharing.
