I have a pimax 5k+ and after the new update my fps have dropped -20 to -25% than before. but the vr experience look smooth though.. Maybe the ingame fps counter in vr does not work properbly in vr. It show im having 20fps but if that was true the game would "lag" however that is not the case it run smooth. I always run the f18c instant action mission where im parked in the airport and use that as reference and i tweak the settings ect. amd ryzen 7 2700x ( 3700mhh 8 cores and boost 4500 ) 32gb 3200ddr 4 ram m.2 nvidia 2080rtx card. ( it could be its a driver issue with low vr performance vs what it show in fps previously.. I had to format my pc and now it will only install drivers via geforce experience, while before I could download it manualy and install it.

I had a similar problem on pimax 5k+. It was not with night vision, but in one of the quick play mission where the coast and a city look strange when i look out the left side of the canopy. If i see it again i make a screenshot.

On steam the release date for the F16 is 25 Sep 2019 but lets see :smartass:

tips.. When you about to engage fly as fast as possible before you shoot, and fly higher than the enemy = more range of your missiles. IF you want to use maximum range shots but it might not always be a good idea since max range shots can be defeated more easy. But you can fire and force the enemy to "do something" while you fly closer and fire again. If enemy shoot at you ALWAYS drop example 6 chaff or 6 flares. If you drop to little they wont have much effect, and 6 chaff seem to be a good number. ( note in some planes you drop 2 everytime you press flare og chaff button ) Also watch some tutorials online online about "notching".. Its a bit complex to explain, but watch this video. basicly if you and the enemy have same range missile, then fly in a 45 degree angle towards the enemy so that he is at example your 9-10 o'clock. When he fires wait 4 seconds and then turn your plane towards his and fire The enemys missile will travel so fast it cannot change its heading that easy, and it will also use allot of energy that it does not have and slow down = wont hit you. Since you fired at a close distance that the enemy who fired at max distance you have a much higher chance of winning since your missile have to travel a shorter distance.e Its of great importance you fire with your plane aimed directly at the enemy for best missile efficiency in this manouver.

at the bottom of the latest news letter it say they currently are focusing on the jsow and tgp. AND if i recall correctly that will be released in june.

Syrian Map Discussion Hello guys I notised that the map in the f16 pre-order video was not persian so i instant thought it could be a syria map since there have been some romours about such a map might become a reality some day. I then visited google earth and since the coast line is not so big, and i could see a long coast line with a big city in the f16 pre-order video with an easy to identify harbour then i put two and two together and i can now confirm its the syrian map. The city in the f16 pre-order video is LATAKIA ( maybe Martakla ) in syria ( im not 100% sure about the name but look at google earth. Google map image https://www.google.com/maps/place/Syrien/@35.5205561,35.7651873,6499a,35y,180h/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x1518e6dc413cc6a7:0x877546f4882af620!8m2!3d34.802075!4d38.996815 Have a look at my attacked photo .. :-) F16 pre-order video, 2:25 sek that is the harbour.

Hello I know that dcs world have allot of really good planes/helis/maps ect. But the price are holding many away from "buying" becourse they cannot try the product first and see if it run on their pc, or are as good as they hope. There for i like to suggest dcs could make a free weekend where everybody could try all modules for free. I am sure this will make more people interested in dcs and buy some modules afterwards. ( or every weeken one product are chosen and people able to play it for free for an entire weekend, since lets face it many planes are complex and to really enjoy and love them it take time to try and get to know them before you really fall in love. ). OR Example make it standard that people who buy a product can try it for 2 houres and if they regret their purchase they can get a refund that they can are "locked" to the shop so they use the money on something els. ( but ideal i think anyone should be able to get money back in their own bank account rather than being forced to buy anything if they regret.. This will give a more positive impression of eagle dynamics.

Ask if someone can make a mod where all you have to do is fly near the tanker and use the radio menu to refuel 100%. ( example turn this feature on in the main menu ). ( or a script that can be inserted into a mission that allow you to use the the radio menu for easy refuel... but technical speaking... why not just select unlimited fuel problem solved the plane will just be a bit more heavy ).

If im not mistaken then the Caucasus map have been VR optimized... BUT im not sure the updated map was released yet.

This might not be releated... but in case that there are problems with the VR device drifting a little bit all the time so he have to recenter the view, then do a calibration a bit away from magnetic things such as loudspeakers and even your monitor for best experience. ( do it example 1m away from anything electric. ). Regarding centering, then im not sure if steam will allow you to do a calibration and recenter when you lay down or sit in a 45 degree angle. but maybe But you can try to recenter ( run the room scale program and select small play area ) and see how it goes.. maybe the game will be okay with a non perfect horisontal pointing vr headset.

sad to hear a dedicated flight sim fan have health problems and can no longer enjoy his hobby. Regarding your question then i like to suggest that you make a small youtube video about the equipment your housband have, or maybe some photos and then share it with us. ( i could see in the bottom of your text there was some info about hardware, but not sure if that is everything or if he maybe have other things that you might want to sell as well ). Then we can try to identify it and tell you the names of the various products and maybe even give you some advice about sales price. ( maybe someone might even be interested in buying something ). sincerely peder. tip..: on facebook in the right side of the screen there are something named "marketplace" it could be a good place to try to sell things for the less cheap things.. regarding the more expensive things, then you might have to think about ebay to sell gobally since some things might be so expensive only very few people buy such things. But lets see your photos/videos and maybe we can help :-)

I would asume the reason is money. a standard freefall mk82 bomb cost about 2100usd to build a guided bomb such as jdam or a laser guided bomb cost 25.000usd each. A GBU-15 ( tv or ir guided ) 274.354usd each. In my humble oppinion the price being paid for the jdam and laser guided kit that are mounted on ordinary "iron bombs" are totaly overprised and the military arround the world should really grab their balls and get som serious discount. The development costs did cost something but lets face it the materials to produce the above kits is less than 1000usd pr bomb.. so when they ask example 25.000 pr bomb its robbery at daylight in my humble oppinion. The above info might not be precise but you get the idea.. for more info try reading this https://www.quora.com/How-much-more-does-a-guided-bomb-cost-than-a-dumb-bomb

Q&A 1). What is up and down in the romours on redit about an ED developer being arrested in USA after he bought manuals on ebay and was stopped and arrested in the airport for wanting to "export" sensitive plane manuals out of usa ? link to debate about the topic

I had the Ocolus VR PImax 4k and now i have the pimax 5k+ vr ( widescreen vr ) I have 16gb of ram and i never had any issues with dcs while using VR. ( maybe i dident notise it ). be aware that some missions run badly due to some scripts and this can effect performance both in vr and non vr dcs gaming. So if a mission runs slow or have problems then it could be a defectie script that show down the game and create issues rather than its a hardware problem.

Actual there are "game engines" that are able to procedural scale the entire world and even in high detail. ( in this case the terrain and roads/forrest and so on ) However i would imagine it is possible to use gps meta data and google earth data and somehow import and auto generate premade buildings onto the entire terrain as well. If this even i compatible with dcs world well i doubt it, but never the less it show us what we can do today... so it should be plausible flight sims could tage advantage of this and use it in 2-4-6 years from now ( its been arround for couple of years now ) Have a look at this

A little of everything all nations should have 1 inf soldier, 1 aa soldier and 1 at soldier. Transport planes should be able to air drop supplys and soldiers. A standard Redfor and bluefor diesel submarine so that smaller countries could use them rather than big submarines all though submarines in the game right now not really are a thing, but in future with real big dynamic campaign it would be interesting.

Hi here are some of my missions for the F18 These missions where designed to be played in multiplayer together with allot of different planes/helis so that as many pilots could join. The missions are rather simple, but give them a try. All of them start on land copy paste the missions into the location of your mission folder typical located like this.. C:\Users\xxxxxYOUR-NAMExxxx\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions airport stike fly low inbetween mountains and bomb runway milosovic strike you have to bomb a chemical factory ect. enemy offiensive is near the coast where two bridges need to be bombed, and stop the enemy offensive. ( no air refuel in any of the missions by the way ) delle-airport-strike-1.3.miz delle-milosovic-strike1 .miz delle-enemy-offensive-1.miz

TIp..: put this image in your kneeboard folder and you can ingame while you fly read what the threat icons mean.. its a really great help copy paste it here. ( in this example its for the fa18c hornet ) C:\Users\your-name\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Kneeboard\FA-18C_hornet If you like it to be avaliable in another plane/heli then put it here Select your plane/heli in this folder and copy paste the image and it work. C:\Users\your-name\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Kneeboard\

GBU38 is jdam

I like the idea about "SAR" on water and land. However I do not think it is something that anyone really want to use in multiplayer.. Lets face it when you are dead, who want to sit and wait example 1,5 - 2 houres to be picked up and flown home in a "best case scenario ". ( they cant even logout of the sim but have to be there waiting unable to do anything, no fun in that. ). People wound disconnect or respawn. However, if things was designed in such a way that the ejected pilot stay on the battlefield and have an emergency beacon, and stay there even if people respawn, then the helicopter could so to speak do as they like and do SAR. I think such thing would be most interesting in a large dynamic campaign system where resources matter. Example you loose the plane but can get "resouces" back if the pilot is saved. Example save one pilot and get the weapons back could be a way of rewarding SAR players and returning resources(pilot) to be used again.

try to enter Meters instead of feet when you program the bombs. I never had a problem when i used meters.

I would like to suggest that we will be able to play the campaign together with a wingman ( player ).

How to prevent the crash. When you program the bomb, then do not select feet but instead select meters. Then the game will not freeze or crash as far as i know and have experienced.

you keys and activations are safe if you uinstall and reinstall dcs world. You only really only need to worry now a days if you buy a brand new computer or change your motherboard. For every piece of hardware you change in the pc, then it have an x keyscore.. and if you come above a limit you will have to use a key. If you run out you dont have to buy a new key now a days, lucky its become much less painfull since your keys are locked to your online account that you login to play with ;-) If you run totaly out of keys you should get one automatic every 1 month or so. if you cant wait contact support. I had my mi8 and uh1 key run out, but when i login to my account i went from 0 to 8 instant ( something like that ) i asume since i have boud all my steam and non steam keys to my account that it was that easy. You can if you login on the main page link your steam account with the non steam online account by pressing your name and selecting edit.. somewhere on that page you can link steam and keys.

If its a mission you make your self, then you can make your own kneeboard and put it in the game.. You are able to make the kneeboard popup in the plane and then you can easy read the coordinates you peplaned and even read and enter the coordinates at the same time, and in VR ;-) There are some automatic kneeboard mods where you example in your writing problem on your pc make a PDF file and then import it into the mod and it will then make the kneeboard for you. You can even combine 1-99 other pages onto your kneeboard so you can so to speak have many pages. I do however recommend to keep it simple ;-) THe big problem now is to enter all the data, it would be much more easy if you could popup the computer you use in the plane in a 2d image like the kneeboard when typing. ( but i think you can also use the keypad below your HUD to enter data but I always used the computer next to my right leg )
