i just added another 16gb of RAM (32gb in total) and the difference is BIG

i would easily pay without second thought 150$ for a balkan map

Visibility range helped a lot, tomorrow i will work on shadows, i am not ready to live without them yet

Thanx i will get more RAM asap

there is something wrong.. i lowered terrain textures to low, and it's ok-ish now, but sometimes when i change between aircrafts, (F2 key) i get this error: PC freezes, Reverb gets black (like when off) after 3-4 mins PC unfreezes and DCS in my monitor is 100% working, even the Reverb tracking is working, only thing that doesn't work is image on my reverb it's black, also when this happens sometimes steamvr crashes and sometimes doesn't also i attach my settings plus i run vr at 45 fps, not 90 fps plus i use some of the mods here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=270404 plus i use default steamvr settings (100% PD, etc)

Anyone tried the new syria map? I have huge issues, most of the times it can't even load the map, pc freezes, steam vr crashes..

Tried some things, including checking integrity files in steam, and lowering the terrain detail from high to low. It seems that this gave a big boost, it's not perfect now but at least it's okish-fine. Do you think more ram could help push higher terrain resolution?

Hi! Got the new map last night and tried to do a small tour with 2 enemy aircrafts spawning towards the end. At first my pc froze during startup, i had to hard reset it, second try was better but the fps when i got close to the ground over big cities was like 5. Towards the end of the tour when the two jets activated, my pc again froze. Pc specs: i7-8700k 5.0ghz 16gb ram 3200ghz Dcs on ssd Evga 1080ti sc2 HP Reverb VR I use low graphics settings, custom nvidia panel settings, 45fps mode in reverb, custom shaders, and other mods for vr boost. Any help?

I have a problem in mission 3 "First Battle" i have flown it 3 times, all three times we shoot down all the F-14's except 1 that rushes back to the carrier and lands there. then i get a message in Russian which obviously i don't understand but i guess it means "mission accomplished, RTB" or something, and i head back to land to Sochi, then 3/3 i get a result of 50 and next mission is again the same mission. In the mission objective it says: "Prevent a rush of enemy interceptors to the attack groups from the enemies carrier AND held airfields" Does this mean i should wait for a second wave of enemies? Cause i have also tried this once, orbiting above wp2 where allly bombers operating, until they destroy all enemy ground units and still never had a second enemy wave

Couldn't have said it better :thumbup:

OK! if you say so! :doh:

WOW, this thread exploded. I am happy to see that there are many who share the same thoughts. Unfortunately some others are just incapable to understand the meaning of option. Easy AAR seems like a banana, it hurts and makes them too uncomfy. Well to be honest, your opinion doesn't even matter, this thread was created because ED told me to create it in order for Devs to see the request. So... you guys can cry all day, makes 0 difference actually :D For those who asked, my personal preference would be: once i make contact and after the "you are taking fuel" message, the a/c stays locked, so i don't have to manually maintain contact all the time. Have fun and... get a life, it's supercool to have one, trust me.

It's working! Thanx! What an amazing mission!!

This is what i do now! :D thanx for understanding.. i just thought give it a try and ask for it in the the wishlist thread.. you never know, miracles do happen sometimes :D

I will rephrase then, we need EASIER AAR. Just to clear some things up. I have practiced, in fact i am practicing 1h almost every day for the past 3 months. I don't know if it's enough, but this is the time i can spend to it. still can't do it. It feels some sort of a health problem to me, i always had this, when i need to do something that requires patience, and small corrections i just snap and wanna brake everything around me. I have many other things to pay attention to in my life, more important than dcs. I just wanna fly around and blow stuff up, aar and turn back to base. And i am not the only one. IF dcs didn't have all the rest cheats i mentioned, then i would have respected it and stfu. BUT they have all sorts of easy options except an option for the hardest part in the sim (as Chuck also says in his guides). I don't get why there is no "drama" about magically auto aligning in the catapult (U key) but people go "crazy" about easy AAR. It could be an on/off option, auto catapult align fx doesn't even have an off option :p For the guys mentioned the F/A-18: i mainly fly the Viper. I have tried some curves, didn't help at all. About hardware: i use the reverb, TM TWCS and the Warthog stick

I can connect, but not stay connected. And yes i get that it needs practice, but i don't have the time for it. Prefer to spend it on flying missions. And it would/could be an on-off option like all the others i mentioned. Someone who is better than me can just not enable it

Yes, Exactly this :)

I know it has been asked before but ED told me to reopen a new thread. I think we REALLY need an easy AAR option. It is easily the hardest part of DCS. To those who will start raging: "This is a simulator!! not a game!!" i say: ask ED to remove easy comms, arcade flight model, active pause, immortal cheat, start airplane cheat, unlimited fuel, unlimited ammo, hide stick, auto align a/c to catapult etc...

+1

i have the same problem buddy, you are not the only one... it would be awesome for an easy AAR option, like the easy communications, or the unlimited fuel option, or the unlimited ammunition option, or the immortal cheat, or the auto start engines cheat, or the active pause cheat, or the arcade flying option ;)

i have to re-open this... unfortunately the problem persists, and it's not hardware, it ONLY happens in f-16 and ONLY when on ground, never on air, i can see the a/c rudders juggling left or right during taxi or take off

Is it fixed yet?

I think i fixed it. I was using the TWCS paddle AND the T.Flight pedals as rudder at the same time. If i use one of them it works fine.

completed mission 5, could not load mission 6. now i have to restart?

do we have to restart the campaign from mission 1?
