Ok, hopefully that will be fixed.

Hi all, I have my graphics set to the VR function with a few small tweaks sucks as 1024 cockpit res and full preloading. This gives me 30fps, very unstable fps when I am near the ground, I haven't tested at high altitudes. This is at roughly 50% CPU usage, 80% GPU usage. These values vary of course. I find this frustrating, I'd like to have better fps and graphics settings but for some reason am being limited in weird ways. Does anyone know anything about this?

Are we going to ever see these?

It seems to me that it should simply include it. Thanks.

If I take a look at the DCS Webstore, it says there is a bundle with the F18 + Carrier + Su33. I already own the F18 (through Steam) and have received the discount but I'm wondering if the Su33 comes with the Steam pre-order?

Awesome! Thanks.

Hi all. I seem to remember there being mention of getting a Su-33 along with the Super Carrier module since we're also getting one of the Russian Carriers that will be updated? Is anything I'm remembering correct or is just the Nimitz class carriers? Thanks.

Hi all. Currently I NEED to restart my PC and unplug the second screen before the restart. One because DCS doesn't prevent my mouse from travelling onto the other screen and clicking items on the desktop...………?? Two being because if I don't do that, then the mouse input is so laggy and jittery and makes me pretty annoyed when I have to restart my pc twice to get the game to stop doing that. Does anyone else suffer from this issue? For info: Corsair mouse and software 240hz Alienware screen i5 8600k 16gb ram 2x 250g SSD and so on... the rest shouldn't be necessary?

I see, I think then that I have over estimated the effectiveness of Chaffs... Still a bit tiring to get hit 9-10 times but if this is realistic then I can't say much. Thanks for the reply.

Incorrect Bomb Count on SMS Page Hi all. I noticed that my bomb counts on my SMS page are incorrect. If I cycle through the bombs it will tell me 10MK82, for example, while I only have 3 loaded. Dropping the bombs has no effect on the count either. Has anyone else had this?

To the OP: Make sure you do not have any other controllers, axis or anything plugged other than you joystick to start off with. My PlayStation 3 controller was messing around with my game the other day and I couldn't fly normally. Secondly: Make sure that NOTHING else is assigned to your axis inputs. If this doesn't help then good luck!

Hi all. Has anyone had luck with chaff actually doing its job? I feel like it does absolutely nothing at all. It doesn't deter my missiles from enemies or missiles from myself. The other day I launched an AIM120 at a hornet which ALMOST hit him because it was flying about 5 meters RIGHT BEHIND HIM WHILE HE WAS SPAMMING CHAFF. The missiles was unfortunately too slowly to finish him off, although the heat from the engines should have set it off because of how close it was but nonetheless, it didn't lose its lock AT ALL while the person was dumping all the chaff he could the entire way. So either Chaff is useless in real life or ED needs to maybe look at them when they have some time to do so. Can anyone comment on this?

Yeah, will just have to hope ED fixes it at some point.

Can't say much about jet engines... but with cars it is because of this: They down tune engines once manufactured to meet CO2 emission standards and for engine longevity. This is why there is often so much 'extra performance' to find when you install a performance chip in the engine, for example.

This is better but still annoying: It first enters the mode where you seem to physically move the camera up/down/left/right and then if I single click the mouse wheel then it works. So basically 3 clicks gets to move the view.

Trust me, I love the 9x and have a good few kills with them too. I just personally feel that the opportunity to use even the HMD cueing is about 1 out of 10 'encounters' with enemy aircraft. Mostly the fight ends with the AIM120c or whatever and sometimes it gets close enough to justify a 9x and SOMETIMES you are close enough to even use the HMD cueing and other things you have mentioned. But anyway, what I'm saying is that ED will quite likely finish other higher priority items for the aircraft before this.

Yeah try hitting that stupid F-14 meme machine with two AIM 9x and one AIM120c and watch it still fly away and the pilot eject safely. Wouldn't be surprised if one day it turns around and sends a AIM54 up my ass just because its an F14 and it feels like it.

Hi all. I cannot change the FORCE cursor show button. It is defaulted to 'L-ALT + C' and when we clear the binding and replace it with another binding, it doesn't take affect even though we removed the default binding and replaced it. My work around has been to record me pressing Lalt + C on my keyboard and assigning that recording to a button on my mouse, my father doesn't have a mouse with extra buttons so he is struggling immensely with switching the cursor on and off. Is there a work around for this? Is it a bug?

When you find yourself being disappointed about something like this, ask yourself the "Priority question". Is this switch really something ED cares about right now? All I ever do is hold my NWS button for 1 second and I've got my aim9x and that's all I need to either finish the fight or be finished. But yeah, would be nice if it was working as with many other things that aren't.

I see, would have been nice to have a bit more extended range. Thanks for the replies

Hi all. I was wondering if we will be getting the smaller fuel tanks for the 3rd and 9th pylon. Here is a picture to illustrate.

What for do you need to lock on to a target with a 9X? I only ever do that when I can't visually spot the guy... TWS also removes the lock-on warning, eliminating that too.

Then I must have missed it, that's why I've posted here. I will take another look.

Thanks
