  1. I have a Saitek AV8R...I have mapped buttons to my desire and saved, but they do not work when the game starts. Ideas?:music_whistling:
  2. Thanks. It was primarily the warning that threw me off since I AM running Vista 64. The "inactive" label didn't help either though. I appreciate it.
  3. Thank you! You are absolutely correct. I didn't even try it because it said inactive. Much appreciated!!
  4. In the game's main menu, when I go to campaign, it says Georgian Oil War is inactive. At the top it says the campaign is for high end XP systems and is not compatible with Vista.
  5. The terrain mod made the terrain look much better. As did the cockpit mod. Awesome! The skins are a blast too. If I get the time I may try one myself. Cannot seem to stop using "bits n pieces". Took some screen shots and use it as wallpaper. The creator of that skin rocks!
  6. It's BIZARRE btw. "In so many ways"???
  7. My reference to the mods was that some improve visuals...I found that "odd" that a mod by a third party improves a game I paid 49 for. Also, I haven't seen mods for other games that improve upon its visuals. Usually the dev does that. Obviously I understand people will alter levels and add skins. That is to be expected. Regardless, I enjoy the game immensely. I don't play mindless games like unreal tourn, though I have enjoyed Halo3 online! There is more to do than just run around and shoot everyone. Kind of boring for me...and I am an action junkie.
  8. Runs ok. I suppose it's running good as I have everything cranked up, but I do get some stuttering when around a lot of smoke and fires and cities. Also, the 1st time in every mission that I fire my machine guns it stutters for a second. After that it is fine. Things I am sure the patch will fix. As you can see, I am running on a pretty good rig at 1400x900. 2.26 dual core, 4g ddr3, 1gb 9800m gts... Wish it wouldn't chug at all, but it is fun as hell. Waiting patiently for the patch. Also, am using DcsMax for the core affinity. I do have up to date drivers. Any other suggestions for performance? p.s. Can you achieve medals when using DcsMax. I received a few, but since using Max I haven't gotten any. I have also noticed that you cannot play campaign...that is because of 64-bit Vista? I have been spreading the word about Dcs: Blackshark every chance I get. Hopefully sending some business your way.
  9. Will the patch be posted somewhere on the DCS site when available? Also, I just bought the disc version, but have the downloaded version I bought a couple months ago. Would there be any benefit of uninstalling my downloaded version and reinstalling from the disc? Thanks guys!:doh:
  10. My thoughts too. 10 more for download...oh well. What can ya' do.

    OOPS!

    Should have posted here 1st. Has anyone tried the visual mods/skins for the weapons and guns? Are they worth the time?
  12. Has anyone used the weapon skins/mods for the missles and guns etc.? Are they worth the download? I don't want to mess with the folders too much.
  13. I have been using computers since the mid '80's and never realized there was a pause button-lol. It confused the hell out of me when I first fired up the game.
  14. ...
  15. cool
  16. thank you.
  17. >>> I am running U.S. Imperial. I have also tried mapping some controls to my Saitek AV8R joystick but when I boot up it defaults to other controls. Also, if using DCSmax u can't earn medals, can you? I know...noob questions.
  18. My speed tops out around 175, how can I get my KA to go faster? I've noticed in some missions you are directed to go faster.
  19. Well, you certainly wouldn't HAVE to download one if it offended you.
  20. Are the skins at lockon the only ones or is there another place to check also. I have to learn how to do that. Love the new years and guts n pieces skins.
  21. LOL That's hilarious. I don't really wanna get shot down, but I'm dying to walk around and shake the enemy's hand. :megalol:
  22. Never mind. Figured it out. :doh:
  23. Ok. Not dissing the developers, just curious. Thx. Hey, I added an avatar recently and it's not showing up yet. Does it take awhile to show up or do I have to activate something? Thx!!!
  24. I don't find it odd. It just seems that Black Shark should have been much more polished prior to release, or offered at a lower price. I love the game A LOT!
  25. ! That's a goofy reply.:megalol:
