  1. It says you can install your own OS. But what's the point? With 16GB RAM and 8 GB VRAM, this rig is on the lower side of mid-range for DCS needs.
  2. This and also bloat. Vanilla DCS is 200 Gb, 30 Gb of which comes from liveries Heatblur shoved down our collective throat. That's almost two Caucasuses, one Persian Gulf or half of Syria. Neat, right?
  3. You're exaggerating or distorting the facts. MSFS 2020 alone takes about 100 Gb - if you don't forget to count its AppData content. And that's only for the vanilla game, which many people would consider non-airworthy without World Updates, 3rd party scenery, and payware aircraft. X-Plane eats up hundreds of gigabytes once you install all necessary libraries, add-ons and airports. And could creep into terabytes with orthos and Orbx/SimHanen stuff. I don't disagree that DCS is bloated, and it doesn't get better. But comparing it at its peak footprint (1.2 Tb means you have most, if not all, maps and aircraft installed) with bare-bones version of another sim is incorrect. First and foremost, they take advantage of their enormous cloud infrastructure. Which ED could never afford without switching DCS to a subscription model.
  4. Been asked/requested multiple times: names of the zip and the folder inside don't match. Just drop the extracted folder into the OVGME mods folder. Not the sleekest solution, but it is what it is.
  5. Thanks for sharing! Getting strong Lock On / DCS 1.5 vibes from it. Although there is one issue that you can see on my last screenshot: during the winter months the distant terrain appears covered in snow.
  6. Nah, I'm in no rush, and I don't want to endorse this trend of moving support from ED forums to other places.
  7. Probably to avoid in-game conflicts with Gardelegen that is just 40 miles away and uses the same channel?
  8. While there are, unfortunately, still a lot of places on this beautiful map where the satellite imagery is borked, this topic will be limited to aerodromes and their immediate surroundings. 1. Puerto Santa Cruz: -camera 218.441017 19.047121 -680.530940 -cameradir -0.454837 -0.890546 0.007219 2. Rio Chico: 3. Near Cullen: -camera -149.729860 8.282563 -615.389859 -cameradir 0.641423 -0.555189 -0.529473 4. Crude blending around Port Stanley. Not as dramatic as others, but it's right outside of one of the biggest POI of the map: 5. Near Franco Bianco: -camera -60.544217 5.997633 -706.128424 -cameradir -0.589233 -0.712524 0.380937 6. Rio Grande: 7. Ushuaia: 8. The blending at Punta Arenas is just plain bad: 9. Near San Julian: -camera 292.065519 18.374606 -609.507538 -cameradir 0.120921 -0.728085 -0.674737 10. Puerto Williams: 11. Around Puerto Natales: -camera -14.879003 30.000000 -915.862985 -cameradir -0.330596 -0.878061 -0.345999 12. There are quite a few problematic areas around El Calafate, but these are particularly nasty: -camera 139.457620 2.099457 -968.321851 -cameradir -0.058884 -0.404365 0.912700 -camera 132.681763 4.974113 -986.391969 -cameradir -0.081518 -0.694317 0.715038 13. Near Porvenir: -camera -188.651418 6.674224 -740.728288 -cameradir 0.544291 -0.804873 -0.236487
  9. Could it be that you're on some internal beta build? Because the issue is still there for us common folks. And not just at Punta Arenas, but at many other aerodromes as well.
  10. Each module has unique clickable items, so you'll have to do this by trial and error using both files as a reference. (Unless someone volunteers to spend an hour or two doing this for you.) Mind that the "Exterior Lights Master Switch" already exists and can be assigned the usual way. Alternatively, try contacting the devs directly (here or on Discord) and ask them to implement this in a future update.
  11. I created it yesterday, set to never expire, and just tested a minute ago. Dunno why it doesn't work for you
  12. Join VNAO discord first: https://discord.gg/R8R2krqmCj What "lights switch", there are many of them. If you looking for the master switch, the names are Exterior Lights Master FORWARD and Exterior Lights Master AFT.
  13. Do you have proofs they're no longer there? I can see them on the satellite maps, both Yandex and Google.
