Do you need "Flare" ?

Try on the "Through the inferno" single player mission and see what happens

I just made a flight from nellis to vegas in a huey at low level. I had no stuttering problems but the visuals in the distance were terrible for jaggies. A lot worse than kavkas

I gave pretty much the same system as yourself, what kind of missions/how many units etc. when you have the problems? Please see my settings. usually if im flying vegas i turn off deferred shading. I will try with my normal settings on vegas

I used to have a hybrid, an Imac fusion drive. Without any stats, or tests, only seat of the pants use the SSD beat the fusion drive hands down. Still better than a HDD though.

I'm not sure about your CPU but you for definite could do with an SSD, and thats not some wild recomendation (buy the most expensive or whatever) it will help your system overall not just with DCS

if i fancy doing a night flight i turn it off, you can't see the trees but and its still a little dim but at least you can do night stuff.

have a little look at the mission posted earlier it give a tour of the whole region

there is a mission for legacy dcs which is a simple flight plan which does a tour of landmarks on the kavkas map. It still works in 2.5 (its only waypoints really) https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=126688 I agree about the valleys, flying down them in any helicopter is amazing.

Ive been moaning about the performance of 2.5 since it came out but i made a little upgrade and things are a little better. I decided to try the "through the inferno" in the Kamov. It was awesome, the trees really are doing their job, i had to creep up on my targets just so I could see them. I was really playing cat and mouse with them. because of the line of sight i can use the aircrafts systems correctly during targeting. Instead of just standing off and firing missiles i'm marking targets and finding positions to pop up from. Its just a shame the gazelle can only carry 4 missiles that thing would be awesome in the new maps Awesome work !!!

My computer is "Multirole" not only for DCS, I can see a difference in the overall performance of the computer so for me the 2 weeks when i didn't go for a beer were worth it. If that puts it into perspective when deliberating going from 8 to 16 gb. I went for a beer

damn destroyed my placebo effect i'm going to send the RAM back now

Ok i'm doing the instant mission in a huey "easy" ground attack in kavkaz Without changing any settings it is a lot more fluid. I don't want to look at the frame rate because its running very well and I don't want to break it in my mind. In this case with this aircraft at that time height 20 other AI etc. I am happy with the improvement. Previously I had Little stutters, they seem to have gone. I notice we have very similar hardware yours is slightly better than mine. i5 6400 16gb (was 8) 250 gb ssd gtx 1050 ti (4gb) Also I've got PS3 head tracking track clip etc.

I'm just going to test it on the settings I had with 8 and let you know if there is any improvement. After that i'll bump up the preload. I don't know if its placebo but my system feels a lot snappier anyway so it was worth the upgrade in that respect.

First can i say С праздником!! Have a good day guys don't drink too much. I have luckily got some more RAM to bump me up to 16GB from 8 What settings can I change to make use of this increased RAM ?

No surfing this isn't me but its the areas where I surf

The whole lighting system in Dcs 2.5 is fubar so no not just a harrier problem. Have you tried starting cold and dark at night ? Have you tried flying at any time other than dusk or sunrise? I was talking about priority, adding a "map" to the MCDU is not exactly high priority compared to a memory leak which stops a high proportion of your players being included in multiplayer. I bought the product from ED using their website not Razbam, if when the final release is ready there is a problem it is ED's problem not Razbam. I fly the harrier every day its my go to aircraft, just a shame because of the lighting in DCS world I cant use it correctly. I'm patient read my post i'm waiting for the release version next year or the year after, also footballs for girls prefer to spend my time checking my lobster pots and surfing in the North Sea

This!!! At the very least update the requirements. Its unplayable on minimum settings on a system which has the minimum requirements, and is barely playable on a system with the recommended requirements. If i see that the requirements are over and above my system i dont bother installing even. We have had 3 hotfixes and not a peep about the memory problem after the first statement. Its a game breaking problem for people without $800 GPU's. A statement of "we are working on it" doesnt quite get to the root of the problem, maybe they could could show some priority in what is being fixed, I mean for example adding a colour map on the harrier, that is great but why not fix the lighting problem first so we can actually see the MCDU screen properly. When the release version is "released" next year or the year after maybe just maybe they won't move the system requirement goal posts again.

Thanks !! that was what I was trying to figure out

I actually built a budget pc with one slot populated :doh: If i installed the 16 gb that i have bought i wouldn't see any benefit from it ?

sorry i5 6400 8gb single channel 1050ti 4gb 240 ssd i should put them in my sig.

My current RAM is in the recommended RAM documentation which is single channel, so i bought another single channel stick. I will plug it in and see if it works, it works with the recommended 8gb so i'm sure it will work with the recommended 16gb. But my question is will they work together?

Hi, Im just looking for a quick piece of advice I currently have 8gb, I bought with my meager funds a new 16gb stick. Its a different manufacturer and model but the timings and volts are the same. Do I replace and stay with 16 gb or do I add to what i've already got and have 24gb? bearing in mind i can sell the 8 gb and put it towards a new GPU in the future. What do you guys think? I normally play single player and i'm running 1.5.8 because foe me the microstutters in 2.5 really affect me.

Me too i forgot to say thanks !!!

Does this work with the steam version?
