Oh absolutely: since we got the MT client, VRAM demands have gone through the roof. It’s not just the texture size of some modules: while that’s clearly part of it, DCS handles textures differently these days. Hopefully Vulkan will offer improvements in that regard…

Probably not, but during online play a lot depends on the quality of DCS’s network code, the ping to the server from your end, ping to the server from others’ PCs, … It all depends on how that data is routed and synchronised.

I just got the script error myself. I was about to make a post when I noticed this one existed already

It might be. As far as I understand, navy aircraft refuel slower because there’s a risk of overspeeding the probe opening/closing mechanism. Air force aircraft don’t have that restriction. If I remember correctly, the ideal refuelling speed for an F-16 is 310KIAS for example (while an F-18 needs to stay under 270). It might be worth experimenting a bit to see what “feels” best in terms of responsiveness and the lowest risk of overcorrection/PIO. Providing the current FM is reasonably accurate, that should get you close enough

Did you both check VRAM usage? Both the F-4 and CH-47 are new modules and thus use better/more detailed textures. A 3080 in particular doesn’t have a lot of VRAM, and in the current state of the CH-47, not even 16GB is enough. Also, using V-sync is not always the best idea, same as using “full-screen” in the settings menu.

I think that’s a smart approach!

The screenshots look very promising!

I don’t

That’s good to hear: at the very least VPForce gives developers priority in the queue so ED (or a 3rd party) won’t have to wait 6-8 months like the rest of us

I realise this is an old thread, but I'm in the same boat now, as my Reverb G2 died last week - after 4 years of pretty intense usage. I got a good deal on a Varjo AERO and it should arrive in a few days. I'm aware that support is on its last legs but it was the only valid alternative for me as I see it: I'm not ready to take the plunge with Pimax because of the well-known Chinese QC issues (their engineers admit this themselves), and Meta is... well, just no... Also I refuse to entertain anything that doesn't have a DP connection. I hope all goes well

Oh I need to check that then. The combination of MSAAx2 and quad view normally works brilliantly for me. *edit* I just noticed ED removed the “cannot reproduce” tag

As mentioned earlier, this will likely be fixed once ED implements the DAFCS. We’ll have to wait and see

Quite odd then that I *wasn’t* prompted to restart my pc after the update. I’m running W11 23H2.

People complain about bad performance and ED’s response is “cannot reproduce”?

Early RHAW gear was designed to warn crews of the presence and current activity of S-75 batteries. Airborne radar guided threats didn’t exist at the time.

I tested pretty much all of the modules I own and the only native implementation I found lacking is the F-5’s (forces far too low). If I can pick and choose which native implementation gets overwritten and which doesn’t, I might give it a try

We'll have to wait for DAFCS to be implemented. I don’t see the need to use telemFFB yet, so for now at least I’m using my Rhino natively.

That was my first impression too, yes. I kept swapping back and forth between F2 and F1 views to check. I then leaned forward to see where my forehead would hit the dashboard frame and compared that to the pilot in F2 view but again hard to tell without pilot model.

It’s the exact same behaviour as the OH-58 and UH-1 with force trim turned off, isn’t it?

If it doesn't work, you could try swapping faces with your wingman (sorry I couldn't resist)

The improved sound directional tuning is very noticeable. Thank you!

No it's not just you. Performance is much worse than for example the Apache, and the VRAM demand is also much higher: 2GB more compared to the Apache. As it is, my 6900XT doesn't have enough VRAM to fly the Chinook on the Afghanistan map (on the included hot start IA mission the framerate dropped to 4 (!) - yes that's not a typo).

Yes the default seating position is too much to the right and too much forward. It's hard to tell exactly without pilot model, but I corrected it to the best of my abilities.

Dead stick here too (also Rhino user). But then again, we were told there would be no force trim on EA release.
