Lol. I know how to move the slider. What I was trying to do was to be able to see the grass/clutter at the furthest distance but more spread out. So there are clumps of grass rather than grass everywhere.

I'm also having a hard time unlocking in ccm. This is in single player too.

Can someone show me which file I need to alter to get less dense grass please. I would like to be able to set it at about 400 but just not as dense.

Does anyone else have blocky trees? The ones close up look fine but ones further away look square with no detail. They aren't even that far away, probably only a few hundred meters. When you get closer to them they all change to full detail then back to the blocky ones again once you have passed. Anyone know why and how to fix it?

Starway, have you given any thought to coloured roofs? You may have seen the recent mod and it seems coloured roofs are quite common in the region.

I was also wondering how to trim for take off. The other problem is the rudder trim doesn't seem to work. It works when you press the rudder trim paddle on the left rear panel but doesn't work with the key binding.

Any idea how to increase the sound of the afterburner from inside the cockpit?

Is the latest manual located anywhere other than inside the game files? I wanted to be able to download it so I can have a read when I'm not at home.

Cheers. Does anyone else have this problem.

Sorry, not sure I quite understand your answer. I've also deleted all of the triggers to see if that was the problem. Any idea what could be causing it?

Has anyone else had a problem with stuttering on this particular mission. It's only this one mission, all the others are smooth as silk. Every 2 or 3 seconds it drops from 60 to 40 fps and the ground jumps forward slightly at the same time. I've opened it up in the editor and tried it with all other AI units deleted and it still stutters.

Totally agree with this. Buttkickers bring so much immersion to the sim.

Well I've found the problem. There is no tandem landing bug. I had a gazelle take off from a nearby farp just at the time the aircraft were landing which made them go around. Now they land perfectly together. Unfortunately there is another problem. Any other ai planned waiting to take off have to wait until the pair that have just landed taxi all around the airfield to their parking spots. The other Ai will not move until they are parked which can take a very long time.

I love the new sounds especially the engine sounds when taxiing. Is there a way to use these sounds for the stable branch. I'm having loads of issues with this beta patch? One other thing. Is there supposed to be a warning noise when the gear is raised and lowered?

I'm getting this too on the latest beta build. Not much fun flying the gazelle with it stuttering every few seconds.

The problem is with the new VR option. Untick it and TIR should work properly. If you get a black screen you need to go to C:\Users\NAME\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config. Delete the 'options.lua' then repair DCS.

Thanks for all the replies. Looks like the vote is unanimous.

I'm thinking of updating my gtx 770 for something a bit more powerful. I'm also thinking about oculus rift possibly around Christmas time. Since the new gtx 1080 is out there are quite a few gtx980's on the market. I can't afford a brand new 1080 so is it worth getting a used gtx980 or are they obsolete now since the 1080?

I tried a blank mission with 2 aircraft landing in tandem and no other objects at all on the map. They land together perfectly every time, I just can't work out what causes them to abort all the other times.

That's a shame. It looks so much better when they land together.

Anybody know?

I have a GTX 770 and it struggles. Try it for yourself but I have had to revert back to a different terrain due to low fps.

I've made a little mission where you taxi a m2000 to the runway but just as you get to the threshold 2 other m2000's land together infront of you. No matter what I do the 2 m2000's get within a few meters of the runway then flair up and go around. I haven't asked the atc to take off and have not crossed the threshold. I've even given the landing jets 5% fuel as I thought this would give then priority. Any idea how to get them to land?

I'm getting a lot of shimmer/flickering from the grass. Is there a way too reduce it? My fps are also slightly reduced by about 15.
