Problem resolved. Monitors weren't properaly aligned in nVidia app on w10, and top of left window was clipped so module manager was not visitble. This wasn't obvious but have now downloaded Persian Gulf and Wow! Thanks for help all. If your module manager disappears, check your nVidia app for screen alignment.

No visible Module Manager in DCS 2.5+ No direct from ED

No visible Module Manager in DCS 2.5+ No module manager appears. Game still wants me to BUY persian gulf map even tho Eagle Dynamics says I already have it. I don't have a module manager in DCS any more so I cannot download. Everything else seems OK. Thanks for trying.

Hi, Sorry about this but I don't seem to have a 'module manager' appearing in DCS 2.5.4 the result being that I cannot see how to download the Persian Gulf map. Shop says I own it but... I'm struggling with all of this so any help/guidance much appreciated. Mike PC Win 8, Nvidia 1660 6 Gb, i7 4770K @ 3.5 GHz, 16 Gb RAM,

Odd gazelle effects/bugs? New here so hope this is right place. Got new Gazelle 2 weeks ago and love it but..; Spawns Gazelle with no tail in next mission or two after crash Collective controls obscure ADF programming Textures float above ground after some minor collisions Cheers, Mike

Hi Guys, 1) I love this sim, it's very close to my fantasy simulation system. I have CA, UH1, Mi8, KA50, A 10 and P 51 but every time I reload to accomodate a new version, I lose an activation. Some of my sims are down to 1 activation - there doesn't appear to be anything I can do and I'm starting to feel ripped off. I can't afford to keep buying new versions because the activation code system penalises me. Does anyone know how to deal with this issue so that I don't lose my sims because I install updates? Thanks

You probably need the uninstall routine that wipes all the key data to allow you to reinstall everything

Idea for difficult missions Hi and great mission you're producing. I thought it might be a good idea to have one or more 'news chopper' missions, in war zones or otherwise, in which various flying skills are going to be needed to both follow the action, and stay out of everyone else's way. just matching speeds with a truck is hard so producing footage (if that's possible) of battles would be very difficult I'd imagine. Anyway, keep up the good work, I'm loving it all! Cheers, Mike

With the last 2 versions of 1.2.6 my downloads terminate early and I get a dialogue box saying that the user stopped the download. After that DCS wants to install the update. Once the update worked, on several occasions it failed and prevented the program from running. Only way I could escape that was to uninstall, clean the registry, then reinstall. Trouble is this seems to be slowly using up my authorisations. I have Huey, KA50 and Mi8 and love them all. Is there any way that I can get DCS World to recognise a faulty download so that I don't keep chewing up my authorisations? Any help appreciated.

780 not yet delivering SLI on 3 screen system I have/had 2 780 OC units in my system. With standard frame rates at between 22 & 30 fps for a single card, I had hoped for better performance from 2 cards with SLI. Not the case I'm afraid, from 1 fps (!) to around 14 fps (depending on settings) performance wasa always worse with 2 cards SLI and a 3 screen system I had the whole lot exenstively tested by the local dealers who are pretty savvy, but nothing we could do improved performance. I handed one of the 780s back until such time as there's a workable solution. Good luck

Virtual mud eh? Brilliant Mr Burns. Don't release the hounds yet though.

As a 'becoming competent' Huey operator, I just got Mi-8 and after a few zany trips, finally got stable enough to try out Mission 1 - Documents. Got near the FARP in steep foothills and lost control of my descent, to crash hard on a slope. After several rolls creating massive clouds of dust while shedding rotor blade bits, I had a pilot's view like the inside of a tumble dryer. I crunched to a shuddering halt facing downhill. More groaning noises followed by a growing and grinding acceleration down the hill on the wheels, with me pushing the brakes and attempting to steer around obstacles. Ahead in a valley, a river! The rush downhill slowed as I braked and levelled out on the river bank. Hope turned to despair as the river picked up the trashed Mi-8 body and swept it grindingly downstream. Wow! What programming is that? DCS is a flight sim, which it does brilliantly. I can now report that the crash sim is equally exciting. With underlying programming like that, the designers deserve major accolades.

When flying along the coast, the sea side 'reflects' weird and distorted shapes from the landward side. The water levels are higher in the reflections and everything is strangely distorted.

I've done the same except I've got 2x780 nvidia OC cards with SLI. With Huey, when SLI is ON, dialogue box reports it's not operating and I'm at around 1 fps! When it's disabled I'm at around 24 fps. DayGlo says I can use an nvidia profile for Black Shark using nvidia Inspector. Does that apply to 1.2.6? And how do I use nVidia Inspector, where do I look etc. Any help greatly appreciated.

OK got it working Hi SkateZ, Got the file now - overcame senior moments somehow! If you know how to i.d. a DCS reg security file, I'd like to know but hopefully I've got this mother under control Cheers, Mike
