Bagpipe

Hey man, Nvidia just updated drivers which has caused me alot of faffing with my 2070 super. Could be GPU driver issues. Mess about with fxaa, AF, MSAA and SSAA and see if you can claw it back maybe?

FYI folks, was about to upload a video link showing terrible Z-Fighting (blocky textures) while demanding a resolution from ED for the appauling mess they had made of my Hornet :music_whistling: Turns out 16x Antistropic + 4x MSAA in MANY GAMES causes this to happen. Dropped AF to 8x, kept MSAA at 4x and lifted SSAA to x1.5 and this has resolved the issue. May even have been the reason for my flickering clouds too (to be confirmed). Just bear this in mind if you come across anything like this. I was almost RMA'ing my new GPU :megalol: EDIT: nope hasnt fixed the clouds flickering in certain situations

Hey, so just ran another few tests and this seems to be a specific campaign bug. I have reported to developer and asked for their input.

They're back! Seems to be at a certain cloud density now appearing from below and above. Its like a rave up there! Very noticeable on BD's Mig19 campaign due to very atmospheric levels of cloud. Getting pretty frustrating and any google search only shows up posts from 2015 etc with no fixes reported apart from updates

Hey that's done it by the way! Thanks! Remembered reading about doing this after updates a while back too so feeling not so clever now! :(:music_whistling: Deleted the wrong fxo and metashaders (the ones in main folder not saved games0 but repaired it and all good again EDIT: That hasn't done it as it happens. It appears to be when density of clouds is higher that they begin to flicker, now seeing it from below also. WIll toy with GPU settings and see if i can stop it that way

Issues only appeared after last update which seems to have broken a few things for me.

Got it all maxed out at 80-100 FPS tbh

People pay taxes to politicians every day who do not deliver on promises. Just be thankful RAZBAM (and any other developers) aren't politicians. Though that could be interesting.... Anyways, like Alpenwolf said, the module is not released as complete so until then "Quit yo jibba jabba fool!" :balloon::balloon::balloon:

Just updated drivers before commenting. Cheers for reply though

Hey i will give this a go and report back. So just delete the folders and run a repair yeah?

Hi Among other things i seem to have gained flickering clouds when viewed from above and also the sea looks blocky in the distance. has anybody else experienced this? think i may need a fresh install after update at this rate :cry:

afaik there should be a scroll tab on the right of the window which you can drag if all else fails

What's not to love about this. It is one of the best modules IMO in DCS which give a real sense of flying an aircraft and the radio navigation system, lack of RWR and G-effect jettisons just makes it all the more immersive and taxing. Plus the new instrument lighting is awesome, landing requires finesse and your head is well and truly on a swivel during dogfights. :pilotfly::joystick:

Would it hurt to try though, i mean some sort of response from HB would be nice. Inbetween making beautiful modules of course :pilotfly:

Yes, my Opentrack has never required any additional input yet somehow after recent update it has lost all communication with DCS. Therefor, i have had to input a .dll file to compensate right now. Mkaes me curious as to what else i may have lost though in the process :noexpression:

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=112679&page=2 Night's post at the bottom of linked post is what i have used for fix now incase anybody else runs in to issues. Download the file and pop into your dcsworld\bin folder

Had a look but can;t find any files which might relate to headtrack? Any ideas exactly what file would allow opentrack to communicate with DCS. I have found a better .dll for now which allows this but everything is inverted and mapping is WAY out. Gunna be a long night of Notepad++ by the looks :huh:

Hi, sorry for not replying sooner, i appreciate your response. Must have turned notifications off somehow... I have since upgraded and the problem is no longer noticeable (as noticeable) i will do some further testing and report back if any further issue. 3700x, RTX2070Super, Opentrack, SSD install

Yeah i mean how hard can it be if they have already stuck it in the F14? :huh:

Hi guys, Since i updated this evening i seem to have lost any ability for dcs to recognise my Opentrack at all. Looking back i have found some .dll files to install in every module's bin folder to enable opentrack to communicate but it is alot of work and the results are far from what i had. Plus this was never required pre-update. It would mean tweaking my mapping entirely. I have tried a repair and another update but neither have resolved my issue. Please can anyone give me an easy fix for this before the weekend is over :cry::joystick:

Bumping this as just had to give up on Burning Skies server as since a recent update where the engine puffs were all misaligned, the TrackIR limits have been off and i cant see anything going on behind me without half of the cockpit glass being in the way. I would like a reply from an ED staff member with an idea of when this will be resolved as it was never an issue before now. If i thought it would get me anywhere i would be demanding a refund...very disappointed that it has not been fixed yet

Hello, I seem to be having ongoing issues with the Viggen's mirrors freezing. That is, the image in the mirror will remain indefinitely, more often than not when it has caught the sun's reflection. I can exit and reload a new mission and even still the sunlight reflection or the previous mission's runway etc. etc. is still left frozen in the mirrors. Can I please have some sort of fix for this as it is ruining this module for me and it's not like the mirrors in the F14 have any bother... Running open beta sees the problem less often but still creeping back in more and more. :helpsmilie::helpsmilie::helpsmilie::helpsmilie:

Hi guys, I seem to notice that when in my Mig-19P cockpit there is a pronounced draw on my system compared to other aircraft even those such as the FA-18C. Is this a widely accepted "bug" which will be looked into? Hopefully ti can be optimized as i have so much respect for this module and how it is progressing :pilotfly: Cheers!

The irony there is that you used sarcasm and not irony after switching the irony on...:joystick:

Anybody having issues since update with the heatseekers not seeking when selected? Sometimes they work other times they dont.
