Weapon selector is off, and you’re directing Petrovich to the correct spot, where the targets are? It works just fine on my end, so there’s likely something in your procedure that is wrong or that you miss/forgot about.

Mostly OH-58 and Mi-24, but some F-4 too once in a while, and I can never leave F-15E alone for long

No such thing as Su-25”A”, it’s just Su-25. And we’re getting a new one this year, albeit FC-level for now, as announced a few months ago. That this belongs in the core wish list subforum, along with the dozens of other threads about this exact same request.

They did: look at the thread's tag.

Gierasimov's post is the solution to this thread, not yours.

Sure, but the reasons for that are very different: in the Falcon the entire canapy is gold coated to reduce the RCS, while on Cy-27 it’s just a type of plexiglass that changes colour due to age and exposure to sunlight.

The latest AMD graphics cards are really good, especially for the money. So a 9060XT (or 9070XT if you’re willing to pay a bit more) is a very good choice for those on a budget. I’d still be on AMD myself if the Varjo Aero wasn’t nvidia-only.

This is also my experience: I’ve never seen GPU usage higher than 92-94% in VR. If I were actually GPU limited, usage would be 98-99+.

It says the same for me: in 2D I’m ‘GPU bound’, but in VR I’m ‘CPU bound rendering thread’ with some dips to ‘CPU bound main thread’ on unoptimised sections of maps for example. My hope is that Vulkan will fix this, so that we are GPU bound even in VR.

As I mentioned before in another thread, I went from a 5900X to 9800X3D and the performance upgrade is eyewatering in games that are CPU-heavy (not just simulation games but also ARPGs for example especially in endgame). P.S. I kept the same graphics card but upgraded everything else - it was well worth it.

Contact frames exist for AMD too but for different reasons compared to those for Intel: while on Intel they are needed to ensure proper contact between IHS and cooler/pump, for AMD they are mainly used to prevent thermal paste making too much of a mess, as the IHS on AM5 doesn’t cover the entire die. I have one from Thermal Grizzly for that very reason; it keeps things a lot more clean.

You’re only using a quarter of your CPU. And why on Earth would you use 2 graphics cards, and dissimilar ones at that? For DCS that is no longer needed, and may in fact reduce performance if you set it up wrong.

I haven't had a lot of time for DCS lately, but the short test I did yesterday was pretty positive: far fewer frame spikes compared to what I remember, and far fewer ugly transitions between 2 very different types of terrain texture.

Optimism is good. “No news is good news” until proven otherwise

I was just making a joke - it was by no means criticism of what you wrote

I see what you did there

At the driver level yes, and yes I used Profile Inspector. I had to keep it off in fact until there was a new version, and it was fixed after so it was definitely a driver bug with that 1 specific driver version.

That new update apparently messed up certain NVMe controllers. You could watch this to see if yours is affected:

During the latest Mover&Gonky show, Wags said “definitely this year”.

Because: 1. Skeletal animations are complicated; 2. There are so many different factions that need infantry models and ED wants to release them all at the same time.

Indeed, the Belgian armed forces spared no effort in showing their disdain for the NH90 to anyone willing to listen: it was a huge scandal in our national media. They said it was so hilariously bad not a single thing about the entire helicopter was to their satisfaction - not even the floor of the troop cabin / cargo hold.

The MiG-21 AI got patched recently, but I haven’t seen any about the MiG-15. There is an updated lua by a user, but if I use that, every single AI MiG-15 in any of my missions gets turned into an A-10 for some reason

I suspect that in the real helicopter the yaw autopilot moves the pedals automatically if needed to maintain heading. I have it disabled as well, and I think it's only beneficial for us simmers if we have FFB pedals. Since most of us don't, it's best to leave it disabled to prevent problems.
