Thanks for that. That was what I was thinking. I could appreciate the benefit of slim line and accept that pancake lenses may have improves but if they compromise the optics such that barrel distortion correction is more that that required for aspheric lenses then I’m still not interested. Needing a high barrel distortion correction is the same as needing a next generation of GPU. That is why I was sufficiently impressed with the Aero and Crystal OG when they came out over the G2. BSB 2.0 sounds like an improvement over previous iterations especially if their eye tracking implementation proves effective with DCS but it’s not for me for now.

Can someone clarify for me which lenses will be on the Crystal Super, MeganeX and BSB2? I’m confused.

I have the Pimax OG, build quality aside, the eye tracking makes all the difference. Once you've got it you do NOT want to go without it!

Well somewhere between page 1 and 7, i got confused. Are you talking about these two changes is the profile inspector?:

There seems to be an awful lot of system tweaking required for DLSS 4 to be get up and running, is there any time frame as to when we shuold be able to run it without all the back end hacks? I'm disinclined to start fiddling with it given my performance in VR is pretty decent as is.

I had a HP Reverb Omnicept which was the same as a G2 but also had eye tracking and mouth tracking (I know right!) Mbuccia was kind enough to facilitate it's use with QVFR for me and the other two DCS users who bought one of these. It worked a treat. Alas, now I use an eye tracked Pimax Crystal, expensive indeed given you really need a 4090 to run it but well worth the upgrade.

Not blaming @NineLine nut not much of a response from ED. There is obviously something going on with resourcing at ED, whether it be personnel, finances, staff experience, etc. These things happen in the real world, I wish they would talk about that.

Where to start, there are so many items on ED’s list that were announced or hinted at literally years ago that are still in the pipeline. Don’t get me wrong I love DCS and am a massive fan boy but they’re some way behind expectations. I’m not talking modules, plenty of those in recent times and they’re generally great, I’m talking all the features such as Vulkan, Dynamic Campaign, AI GFM, etc. Around twoish years ago things seemed to move a lot quicker than they do these days. I’m not going anywhere but that is more than a little frustrating. I’m probably not in good company but I wish sometimes that they would simply switch to a subscriber model and hire more staff and get the job(s) done.

Thanks very much for that. I appreciate your help once again.

Here you go: https://github.com/Kinkkujuustovoileipa/uh-60l/releases/tag/1.4

Thanks for the quick response. My mistake, not the manual install icon, just the install icon as per below. Why are you saying that this mod is not for Mod Manager? I have previously seen this mod (possibly an earlier iteration) in the download library or a squadron repository. Should I unzip it first maybe?

Thanks for the updates. I am attempting now to manually install the UH60l 1.4 version from my desktop in to my local library folder. I am using the manual install ICON and when I do this it does not display in the OMM local library list. It does however display in that folders directory when I look for it with file explorer. Any ideas? I am going to have to primarily do manual installation going forward becasue there does not seem to be an open source mods repository that anyone seems to want to make universally available.

The use of the F7 key for rudimentary Intel gathering of a selected target on the F10 menu. Also better info on the various surface to air weapon and how they’re used and integrated within the Encyclopaedia. Maybe even a video showing how DCS SA10 systems work for example.

Is there an single open source DCS free mod repository server that is available to all users that has a list of all the free mods that are updated that we can use? I have found that mod updates and downloads are one of the biggest hurdles to joining a squadron. Everyone squadron seems to be managing their own thing which kind of complicates it for new recruits when they all have different protocols for updates and such....

That ALT FLAPS switch should be used in the event of an engine flameout landing. When you're assured of a landing, it will extend the flaps manually to ensure an appropriate airspeed/AOA combination to land, try it without it for a comparison, the landing speed is simply too high, therfore so too is the flare height and the sink rate approaching touch down.

I’m glad they’ve set the auto boresight. Thanks ED

I do wish there was an option to simply skip the boresighting. I like realism but the time it takes to then often fail airborne......

Can't do that in multiplayer, is that still a thing?

It is going to be a function of the boatspeed, so it depends.

Public service announcement about Pimax Crystal Foveated rendering or DFR. If DFR fails in your headset like it did in mine, while every othe feature of the headset works fine, follow the Pimax troubleshooting by all means but don't rule out the possibility that your USB power has failed in one port only even if the rest of the headset works trouble free. Power had failed in a group of ports on my motherboard and yet the headset was otherwise functioning normally without anything flagging on the user interface or in any other respect.

Ok, how good is the DCS repair feature in the event that it all goes to custard? I ask because I noticed after I had removed some root directoy files from the Local Library one of the root directory mods seemed to remain in place and I am hoping to avoid an entire re-install. Would an entire clean install likely fix such an issue if it started to casue some problems? It's not a problem as yet to be clear.

I have just installed OMM 1.2.7 as I have joind a squadron. I would just like to clarify to avoid future grief: When a DCS update is due do I first need to uninstall root mods (ED main directory) and mods on my saved games target directory before updating DCS? Additionally and more generally what are some of the other big traps that can get things in a mess with updates. Thanks in advance

Hello, I am interested in joing if a position becomes available. Thanks.

I appreciate you having a look at this, my efforts to switch between the three TGP display options of HOC, TV etc and adjusting contrast appear to be very hit and miss pardon the pun even at close range but I appreciate you having a look.
