I agree. Based on the posts from the 14th and 15th of January on the Razbam discord, that’s what you could infer. I’ve followed Razbam across a number of sims for what is probably a decade, and rationality and consistency hasn’t been their strong suit, so the above could change at any given moment.
-
So to establish a couple of things based on the above, Razbam_Prowler is clearly Mr Zambrano, and the take ranges from “don’t hype it, not going to happen” to “everyone is looking to keep these modules alive and kicking.”
-
it seems the dialogue at Razbam’s discord would indicate it is Ron Zambrano. When Razbam_Prowler posts, people call him Ron and he has responded without correcting them. Take it for what it is worth… Additionally, if you need more official confirmation that they aren’t doing any work on DCS, it says so in their official announcement on the first page.
-
Yeah I had the same thought. I went into the mission editor, and set the waypoint elevation to 0 agl. Tried again, and it still seems to point down at the ground shortly in front of the helicopter. Im hoping to have some time to play around with it this afternoon. Maybe I can suss out what I’m doing wrong, otherwise I’ll try to maybe post a video.
-
Sure. It is from Razbam’s official discord, called “RAZBAM DISCORD”, and the “General” channel within the discord.
-
Well, relating to the MiG-23, in Razbam’s discord channel, on Jan 14 at 9:35pm a user posted “I would buy the mig-23 even before the mig-29…” to which Razbam_Prowler responded “all that is canned, so don’t hype please, not going to happen.” Razbam_prowler is Mr Zambrano. Is that an official enough source?
-
How is this news? Razbam has repeatedly said they are through with DCS. Are there people who thought the MiG-23 development was still in process?

For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to get the MMS to point at a waypoint. Is anyone willing to explain the procedure step-by-step? Here is roughly what I am doing: LMC on MMS pulled up on MFD MMS mode switch to PPT laser armed press PPT button on MFD enter waypoint number and hit “enter” press mms manual button twice to get to PPT mode After doing this, the MMS seems to be point forward and slight down into the ground, and not remotely at the waypoint. What am I missing?

Lunar Sale | Su-25A Announced | MiG-29 Pilot Helmet
av8orDave replied to Graphics's topic in Official Newsletters
I'm sure I'm a bit slow on this one, but can someone explain what this bit means?: "Please note, in order to follow our DCS updates, you must have the latest information about our network changes, we kindly recommend updating your DNS cache (run "ipconfig /flushdns" in Windows)." Something maybe is lost in translation. I honestly have no clue what this is referring to or saying. -
I think shadows comes down largely to the details of the system. A few years back, I had a 3080, and I had to be very conscious of the shadows setting, as anything over medium would really kill performance and was a major limiter. I have a 4090 now, and graphics settings really aren't the obstacle... if I get poor framerates, it is almost entirely because large numbers of AI units are killing the CPU (Ryzen 9 7950X). Said another way, if I'm flying solo missions with a 4090, I can go hog-wild on graphics settings with little consequence. If I'm flying a complex mission, all bets are off.
-
You’re going to get varied input from different people, but my simple answer is: no. You don’t need all the third party software. I use the regular Meta App combined with Oculus Debug Tool (already in your Quest software) to make any necessary changes. VR in DCS doesn’t need to be a science project. Frankly, many of the “benefits” people seem to tout from 3rd party software I believe to either be a placebo effect or unique to their specific system / setup. Find some settings that work for you and go enjoy. At this point OTT is obsolete and OpenXR Tools might be as well.
-
Ha, that only one of the problems with the Razbam discord. Some seriously unhinged dialogue seems to transpire over there.
-
Yes. I go to their Discord to see what the buzz is. If you’d like to see an unproductive conversation, and a wild and twisting dialogue that weaves in and out of ED/Razbam, other sims, car enthusiasts, general gaming, political discourse, and general nonsense, that’s a great place to look.

Dramatic FPS drop in VR with the last patch
av8orDave replied to scorpion80's topic in Bugs and Problems
I seem to be having the same problem. Dropping textures to medium didn't do a thing. System is Ryzen 9 7950X, 4090, 64GB DDR5. Quest 3. -
Just picked up the Chinook for the first time in a bit. Before flying the Chinook, I was flying both the F-16 and the AH-64 with a rock-solid 72fps. With the Chinook in Nevada, my FPS was suddenly a 36 - 42 fps stuttery mess. System is a Ryzen 9 7950X, 4090, 64GB DDR5, on an SSD, Win 11 Pro. I'm not running any mods, totally clean install.

Maybe they do videos like my son does book reports for school. <knows about book report due date for months>.... <day before book report is due>... "Hey, I haven't started that book yet."
-
Dang, now I'm sitting here trying to figure out which group I fall into. Maybe both.
-
Remarkable, right? How does a video get delayed?
-
This is the correct list. Of these items, I predict: I hope to see the sniper pod on our f-16.. We will see this. the API Vulkan in action: Won't see it. the DTC: Won't see it. the Dynamic Campaign in action: Won't see it. the save option to mission progress: Won't see it. the F-15E the solved problem with RZ: Definitely won't see it.
-
A full-fidelity F-15C would be a really nice surprise. Has there been a more important, successful, and historic aircraft in modern service?
-
I feel for the DCS users that add a 50X0-series card to their system, only to have a DCS mission with a handful of AI units bring their CPU to its knees.
-
I hear ya’, and yes, it’s a great module. It would still be nice to know if it will be maintained going forward or if features that used to work (like ATHS) will be allowed to gradually “erode.”
-
I've tried with pretty much all of the encoders, at least H264+, HEVC10 Bit, AV1. I've tried running at bitrates as low as 100 with all. My in-game overlay shows a solid 72 fps, latency around 40, and a solid network connection with low network latency (I'm on a dedicated 6G router, 2400bps). Yes, I'm on the V72 firmware. I don't use OpenXR Toolkit (it is antiquated and no longer necessary, no?). I get great performance with the link cable, but get a wild micro-stutter with Virtual Desktop. System is a Ryzen 9 7950X, 4090, 64G DDR4.
-
It is super-flyable and very enjoyable. I really like the module. Having said that, there are definitely some features that are regressing (i've been annoyed that the ATHS no longer functions since the RAZBAM dispute). Also, figuring out how to use some of the features has been an adventure as the implementation of many things (TPOD functionality for example) has changed over time.
-
I know this is an old post, but did either of you figure out a solution to this? Tried Virtual Desktop today for the first time in a while and the judder was pretty bad... I don't get that with the link cable. It's a rock solid 72 fps (Quest 3), but if I roll the jet or move my head quickly there is like a weird micro-stutter.
