    How well rendered are fjord cliffs?

    in Orbx Simulation Systems

    Posted

    In flying the other DCS maps I know cliffs have not been a strong suit of the franchise. Having near-vertical terrain projections with high resolution DEM has always been a dream of mine in DCS. 
    With the Kola map being vastly populated by fjords IRL, I'm wondering if this is a thing with this Orbx map? Anyone have first hand experience of how good the terrain resolution is when it comes to the DEM?
    (when I think of Norway)

    Scandinavian Tour

    in Orbx Simulation Systems

    Posted


    I have a request for those who can be bothered to make some kind of Scandinavian tour mission. Like each waypoint visiting interesting site, beautiful landscape, mountains, cities or whatever. I don't mind a long flight.
    I remember back in the Flanker day (or Lomac ?) Ironhand made this kind of mission for Crimea.
     
    Thank you.
     
    I'm sorry if this thread is in wrong forum.

    More full fidelity Russian aircraft

    in Chit-Chat

    Posted

    If you understood what I'm writing, you wouldn't be writing this. There will be a big surprise when the clickable cockpit MiG-29A arrives and players can see how different the FC3 MiG-29A completely partially fantasy based BVR radar mode is. Just to name a few!
    Mode “V” (Vstryehchya): Encounter
    Mode “D” (Dogon): Pursuit
    Mode “SP” (???): Free Search
    Or the SPO 15 RWR, which in Flaming Cliffs is partly a fantasy because in reality it works completely differently! This will also be shown in the fully clickable MiG 29A!
    All of these are not included in the Flaming Cliffs MiG-29A! So somehow try to understand what I wrote about the Su-35, because the Su-27 is also partially based on fantasy, and I think a Su-35 light module is better than nothing!
    By making Flaming Cliffs or light Su-35 five because there is a demand for it, you are not violating any law and you are creating it as the Flaming Cliffs aircraft are created partly based on fantasy, and Flaming Cliffs 3 is a successful product!
    I wasn't talking about your post. I was replying to the OP wish to have more Russian jet. AFAIK there's a problem with Russian law that prevents ED to make, for example DCS Su-27 (feel free to correct me about this). That's why I joke about uncle Putin.
    I don't care about how different DCS MiG-29A vs FC one. That's not my point. I'm just grateful ED eventually develops it.

    Dcs and anti virus.. What do you use?

    in Chit-Chat

    Posted

    none, game folders are supposed to be exempt,. otherwise every file loaded into memory is going to be scanned as well as processes.... kills performance.
     
    I concur. I even deactivated my windows defender. My PC only for DCS. I work on my laptop.

    Pico 4: how to set it up for DCS?

    in Virtual Reality

    Posted

    Just want to add few things :
    1. Wireless---> go for dedicated wifi 6 router
    2. Wire ---> go for usb thetering. I'm too lazy for the details but you can Google it as I did. There's risk BSOD for using this method without enabling encryption ? (Can't remember the exact name). So you have to enable it in VD setting in PC.
    The advantage for using usb theter over wireless is lower latency.

    Easy/Medium/Hard/Realistic refueling options.

    It's bit hard for some people maybe because it needs improvement from ED and make it more realistic ? The other sim that can't be named did it and for me, now it's much easier refueling than before.

    To OP don't give up trying. I was like you before. You need to be patient. Every time you feel frustrated just stop and try it another time. I've been playing ED sim since Flanker era. Believe it or not, I was only able to do air refueling after I flied DCS and it's not even smooth.....connect......disconnet......connect.....disconnet lol.
    Keep trying and be patient, you'll get there

    Good luck

    Depend on graphics settings in dcs world. I have a computer system similar to the one you have and the VR I have is a Pico 4. My FPS is on the low setting between 40 - 60 FPS
    My latency quite high is on 60-70

    AIM-120A

    AIM-120A would be good addition to whatever fighter that could carry it. The big question is would ED even bothered to make it. My guess is no. I'm happy to be wrong though

    Hellfires against air targets

    in DCS: AH-64D

    Posted

    I did shoot down other helos with hellfire in MP but all of it was in PvE server. I also saw someone did shoot a Gazelle with Hellfires in PvP. So it's actually very much doable.
    Try shooting it inside 4km and (as already mentioned above) the target not beaming at you. Keep trying and you don't really need stinger and sidewinder.

    for 3 and 4 it's normal.
    You only asked me to change number 2.
     
    So if you want to change 3 and 4 as well, you'll have to do this
     
    if  (flight[f].player or flight[f].client)  then  mSkill = 4end

    but it's a shame. Normally, it's normal for the wingers to be less good than the leader.
     
    Besides, why do you want your flight to be totally excellent?

    Ah..thank you. Just finished my flying time today. I'll try that again later.

    I'd like to change the wingman skill level to the highest simply because I just want to make sure the job is done without any drama whatsoever.

    Thanks.
