  1. Bought, downloaded and KEYs already setup. :D
  2. Damn that’s a hell of an increase, 60fps to 80 - 90 in VR, 170+ in flat screen. Ok now those are numbers I will be happy with. Out of interest any chance in telling my what tweaks you made. Obviously I’ll have to make similar ones once my card turns up.
  3. Pretty much identical to your DCS settings, but no it doesn’t run well, I have the ground stuttering all over the place in VR. Which is there regardless of any setting changes. Ref the CPU bottlenecking, if I’m honest I’ve never checked. Hell I wouldn’t even know how to check. I just stick in recommended settings and check the FPS and see if it’s smooth.
  4. Damn same cpu and GPU as me. This does not bo well. God I hope you find a way to solve this. Was thinking bout grabbing a 3090, but looking at this there may not be any point. Was after a FPS in VR of at the least 60 in ALL circumstances , pref up near the recommend 75fps for the Rift S Or new quest 2.
  5. Oh fully appreciate that, hence why I stated take with a mine of salt. Still extremely tempted if only for the 24gb VRAM. But certainly from the 4 leaks I’ve seen there is certainly a trend of only around 10 to 15 extra FPS at the mo. Which IF true is gonna be hard to justify the extra cost. Really hope we get some official stuff soon. I mean the 3080 will be a huge improvement over my 1080ti, but I am concerned about the 10gb VRAM. Not totally convinced it’s enough. All I want is 75 to 90 FPS in VR so i can finally reach the recommended framerates of the Oculus. I just want to be able to fly without ground stutter driving me nuts.
  6. Sorry are you seriously stating there is no difference in VR between the 3080 and your previous card. If so damn that’s a massive disappointment, even more so to see that you still appeared to have stutters as well. I was hoping the 3080 would allow me to have high graphics, sliders at the very least half right and NO stutters. Please tell me ive read your first post wrong.
  7. Good luck getting it, although I see there are some leaked Benchmarks now floating about, and it doesn’t look to be the FPS increase we were hoping for between the 3080 and 3090. Now obviously we all take leaked benchmarks with a whole mine of salt, but it might just might be true, and if so it makes it significantly harder to justify the extra cost. At least for me anyway. Currently planning on the EVGA ftw3 3090
  8. Hi all, I’m trying to get the INS aligned on the ground on a cold and dark startup and I’m struggling to get the lay and long entered into the comp as I’m not seeing the POS setting on the ODA come up. So basically Im Starting up the engine, turning on both MFDs, HUD, Radio brightness etc, going to EHSD, Data, AC, And moving the GPS switch to align ground, and then as I understand it, I should press POS on the ODA which allows me to enter the lat / long on the UFC. But the issue is the ODA is staying blank. Has anyone got any ideas where I’m going wrong Works fine on board ship, although granted it uses a data cable then to get the ship info. I know it’s likely something I’m not doing, I just can’t see what, even though the answer is likely in front of my face.
  9. So I’ve just changed my axis settings to some I saw on YouTube when Casmo.tv tested the Gazelle a few weeks ago. Now I was to be fair quite dubious that this would make much of a difference, and I will freely admit that I have never been able to get on with the Gazelle, and thought it was quite a poor helo within the DCS world. I WAS WRONG I hold my hands up, I apologise now to the Polychop Devs. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Now is the FM realistic, honestly I’ve no idea, I’ve never flown in a gazelle, but I do see some real world pilots including one with a fair few 1000 hrs of the airframe, stating that actually it is, and I must say with the axis settings I put in from the YouTube vid, damn it flew amazingly well. I’ve just flown Nap from Damascus to Beruit in the new Syria map, and I will state here and now, not only was it the best helo experience I’ve ever had in DCS, it might also have been the best experience I’ve had in this sim full stop. Controversial I know, and honestly I’m as surprised as anyone else, but damn once you get your hardware dialled in correctly, this module is in a league of its own. I can’t wait for the Kiowa. Thankyou Devs, Thankyou for sticking with us, through all the hate and negativity. Whatever I can do to make it upto you, just say. Because I’ve never been so wrong about a module before.
  10. Not had stable installed now for many years. OB works fine, and to be honest I’ve not found it any less Stable than the Stable build anyway. So for me anyway, I see no point of stable. Go OB and get the modules on time.
  11. Woohoo finally seems to have fixed this, by completely uninstalling Bitdefender. Now it seems to run perfectly well again. Sadly although program had all the exemptions added, it seems it wasn’t enough to stop Bitdefender screwing with the DCS framerates.
  12. Battling with this issue at the mo, I’ve followed the advice and excluded DCS from Bitdefender, but sadly the issue is still present. Upgraded all drivers, audio codecs, bios, memory tests, 3dmark stress tested and all test have come back no issues. I am at a complete and utter loss at this stage, so gonna do a fresh install on another M2 drive to see if that makes any difference. Out at mo, but will include dxdiag and the latest log once I get back home. Only started a few weeks ago, will run at 60fps will no issues then freezes for a few secs, before going back to 60fps. Happens every min or so.
  13. Currently battling with the same issue. Uninstalled and performed a fresh install for Nvida drivers , HD audio drivers. Shut down any external programs and checked with task manager to see if I could see any spiking which sadly nothing stands out, I am at a complete loss at this stage at what is causing this, also happening with a driving game Wreckfest, but XP11 is runn8ng perfectly fine and smooth. My specs are below are that machine is quite a comfy mid range machine which up till a few weeks ago, ran beautifully without issue.
  14. https://www.facebook.com/CubeSimGarfield No me neither, hence my hesitation to use them.
  15. Hi all, recently I started to get adverts and a page coming up on my Facebook by someone called Cube Sim, they appear to produce screens to fit the Thrustmaster MFDs perfectly, which means no longer having to put up with a frame that’s larger than my TM MFD frame, and I have to admit they do look rather good. At $120 a piece they are not to bad A price as well, And his last post also posted the MFDs mounted to a stand which held all 3 perfectly to match a Hornet avionics setup. Now understandable I’m a tad weary of purchasing via a Facebook advert and especially from a company I know absolutely nothing about, I was just wondering if ANYONE here has had any dealings with this company and especially if anyone has purchased and used the mfd screens and stand? Just trying to do some research before deciding if I want to purchase off this company or not.
  16. Great sum up Hueyman, may I add that having an option for the FULL axis range on the collective Throttle to allow those of us with either collectives or who just want a realistic range of movement on the thottle to be able to roll down past the flight idle to idle stop and likewise roll the throttle up to flight idle on startup. Basically full control of the throttle without having to use the page up and down keys.
  17. They really need to change this if it’s still the case. I was hoping after this many years they would have given us the full range by now
  18. Hi all, trying to setup my Warthog throttle to include the full range of movement on the axies. Basically I don’t want to use page up or page down, and use my throttle to move the helo throttle full range up to idle detent then full power, then reduce it to idle, press the engine stop button and then reduce the throttle further to cut off. Now I’m aware back in 2014 there was a campaign to get the Huey collective to work like this, after for some reason Belsimtek chose to only allow us to use page up and down at the idle detent. Do we know if this was ever changed to the realistic way or are we still stuck with page up and down? EDIT - Can the mods please delete, as I see it was answered in another post. Sadly it does appear it was never fixed.
  19. But most lighthouses at that time were taken out of service because of the blackout, they would only be used very rarely, and only during the period a important convoy was passing.
  20. Huge thanks for putting that up, just tried it today. It’s a perfect carrier setup. Really looks the part. Thankyou.
  21. While I was rather keen for this, to be perfectly honest, I’ve now given up all hope. It was first mentioned it was almost here in Nov last year, Kate then mentioned it would be out April, then we heard maybe today. Apart from a release by mistake which was quickly taken away from us, I’ve now gotten to the point where I will believe it when I see it. Maybe one day we might get it, but until then, I’ve put all thoughts of it out of my mind.
  22. Damn that is one impressive update list. So expect a decent size download. God I hope it works well.
