Yea, most of my WA mates are getting good speed, on the east of the country its absolutely shocking tho

I tried, and was told that it's just a case of unfortunate server location (I'm in Aus) and there's nothing they can do. I can't update my game or anything rn bc the download speed is unusable

Ever since torrents were disabled, and http became the default, my download speed has been 1/10 of it's normal speed. please please please bring torrents back.....

So, torrents have been disabled, and now HTTP is the default download option. It's absolutely painfully slow, I had to reinstall my game and it took 2 days. Does anyone know when the torrents will be enabled again? I understand that there are technical difficulties involved, just asking if anyone has an idea as to the general time period in which they might be re-enabled. I wanna play on Persian gulf again :(

yes, it's extremely frustrating, still haven't got it working.

ah right, that makes sense. It's extremely slow rn, I'm doing a full reinstall and just wanna fly some planes!!! at the current dl speed it'll take like 3 days though haha

I can't seem to get it to switch to HTTP, it just straight up exits when i cancel the download

ok, will do that

hi all, i have experienced some rather infuriating issues with thrustmaster's target software. I have a Tm warthog + throttle and the t-rudder pedals, after running target for the first time and running a profile, it didn't work, it merely unmapped my controllers, and then when i closed target down; my controllers didn't return. and now they do not work if plugged into certain usb ports on my PC in that the computer simply doesn't recognise them being plugged in. I have uninstalled target and all the drivers, yet this issue persists. my warthog, throttle and t- rudder; after running target, simply don't work in certain usb ports, nothing pops up in game controllers or device manager, nothing. however in certain usb ports on my pc they work. This is a truly bizarre issue, does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks for the help guys, for now, i've opted not to use target following your advice and instead am doing it the old fashioned manual setup way

Alright, so i've got it set up but there is a slight problem, it doesn't read some of the buttons on my throttle, how do i get it to recognise all the buttons?

looking through it ATM

I just downloaded target, oh god how do i use this thing lol

Hi all, i recently acquired a thrusmaster warthog HOTAS system and a thrustmaster t-rudder set of rudder pedals, I know there is a way to get games to recognise them as the same device rather than separate devices, but I cannot figure it out. If anyone could give me a hand it would be amazing, Thanks in advance

PRECISELY

Also, the primary reason I would like to see more FC3 style aircraft, is that it will result in far more flyable aircraft added into the game, instead of working on a project for a year to make one full fidelity DCS level aircraft, they could make 8-10 lesser fidelity aircraft in the same time period. Obviously if i had a choice between 8 full fidelity DCS planes and 8 FC3 style planes, i'd take the DCS ones, but you simply are not going to get the same variety of aircraft if all of them are full fidelity planes. It would simply be wonderful to have 30-40 flyable planes, regardless of detail level.

I started my modern flight sim hobby with LOMAC, and tbh although i love my mirage and f5, its always fun to have a choice between multiple fighters and be able to hop into the cockpit of one without any learning curve whatsoever. You all know full well there is no competition to DCS in regards of modern combat flight simulations, so there really is no ideal alternative. If it wasn't for LOMAC, i wouldn't have a clue what I'm doing in DCS. This elitism and snobbishness is unnecessary

personally i'd love to see some more flaming cliffs style modules with different era planes, like a simplified module but with multiple aircraft, I'd love to see a world war 2 one, with a early model spit, late model spit, a 109, a 190, a p-38, a zero, a tempest and a bf 110 perhaps. A Korea one would be cool with a f-80, bearcat, skyknight, corsair, la 9, la 11, a vampire and a sea fury as would a Vietnam one with the F-4, F-100, F-104, Skyraider, Mig 17, Mig 19, early Mig 21 and A-7. Thoughts? its personally on my wishlist

cheers mate, yeah I'm currently saving for a 1070 (or 80 if the price drops) and lol I'm using a tiny 1600x900 monitor from like 2010. I figured the monitor is the lowest priority on my agenda because its only about 15 inches and at 15 inches the differences between 900 and 1080p are negligible.

I'd like to see a RAAF paint scheme, although it would be fictional, because IRL we dont have the C model

Hi all, I'm struggling to find a balance between performance and looks in DCS, my specs: i7-7700 CPU, gtx 970 GPU, 16GB DDR4 ram, I have the game on my HDD but I also have a SSD but I have almost no space on it. I run the game on high settings and turn grass/clutter, terrain quality, preload, down, I can run Nevada well but Normandy constantly stutters between 30-60 fps. I'm a little disappointed because I just spent a bunch upgrading the CPU and Ram. Anyone have suggestions as to how I can improve performance? Oh and VR runs terribly on either map, constantly stuttering.
