The 30th page of this thread as examples of a modified server.lua that changes cockpit views in dcs.. Reworked Cockpit Views I suggest you read some of the first pages of this older thread and see if this is useful for you. You can place the modified server.lua in your Saved Games\DCS\Config\View folder for DCS

Just like Ironhand said above... Also, for Flaming Cliffs 3 Planes you can't go wrong - Pick what you like - Russian vs NATO. If you like ground attack, stick with A10. For Russian planes the MiG29 has what appears to me as the nicest looking cockpit. Have you considered the following free full Fidelity Mods with clickable cockpits? A-4E-C Community MOD: there is even a Beta 2.0.0 beta 2 with EFM and greatly improved in development MB-339PAN: This MOD is no longer supported because it is being updated to an Official DCS Module that will be available in the DCS Store when completed. -BUT it is still a fun plane to learn how to fly in and has guns, rockets and bombs too.

I have been using Reshade.me for a few months now. My main goal was to improve FPS. A good Reshade thread on this Form is here: DCS World and Reshade by M0ltar You can also check out MUSTANGs Adjusted Shader MOD and compare his results to what you can get with MSAA if visual enhancements is what you are looking for.. FOR my install I just use Reshade for antialiasing: ALL of the DCS MSAA, SSAA and SSLR are turned off. I enabled SMAA in Reshade. With my current setup I got about 7-9 FPS improvement and better looking antialiasing compared to DCS MSAA 2x.

I finally got around to trying RS Mapper. Currently using it for my Tobii Head tracking Enable/Disable toggle using Long Press on the same button I use for Centering my view. Outstanding enhancement to DCS or any other game you want to create a profile for. Thanks!

The MB-339 Manual is named MB-339A User Manual.pdf and it should be in: \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Aircraft\MB-339PAN\Docs Missions: Do a Search in User Files Downloads: I only saw this COIN one as an example: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3307113/?sphrase_id=2169373 I suppose you could take any other mission for the L39 or C-101 and add the MB-339 to the mission. Good Luck. -
Thanks! Very nice product. I am enjoying my new "Freedom" away from the 7 year old TrackIR and the Hat Clip. LoL. So far so good. I like the Tobii GameHub and how all of those 29 settings that can be tweaked to suit my preference and comfort levels.

Even the beautiful (270 MB) B-17 has 8 files that are over 65537 KB: \DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\tech\WWII Units\Textures\B-17G.zip This is a great "Low Hanging Fruit" optimization solution that will get addressed sooner or later. Thanks Taz!

@BIGNEWYwill dropping Windows 7 Support yield any performance or stability benefits? For example: Better memory management, FPS, less stutter, etc..
-
Great Topic and discussion. I hope that with the up and coming DCS 2.7 Eagle Dynamics will take the opportunity to optimize as many of the unnecessarily large textures as possible. This looks like an easy job for an intern or even a project for someone who needs a mental brake from doing their current job. I hope this thread gets more bumps in the coming weeks.. Cheers.
-
Yes Correct. I expect more updates on FACEBOOK and this Forum in the coming months as the development team reaches certain milestones. Cheers.

@PhilTheBeatThe MB-339 will be getting upgraded from a Free Mod to an official DCS Module that will be available for sale in the DCS Store along with the other great planes already available.
-
This is good timing.. I noticed the old MB-339 Mod seems to crash my DCS more often than other planes. I am fine with this because I know that the official new and improved MB-339 is coming and I have plenty of patience and faith in this latest module.. thanks for the updates!
-
I just placed my order for the Tobii 5c, mainly because of the the last update that enabled 6DOF in DCS. Maybe it will arrive in "2 weeks" just in time for the new clouds.. lol Cheers.
-
For the most bang for your buck: F/A-18. However, as many have said before, get the plane that most excites you, because that will be a plane you want to learn and invest your time in. Good Luck!

I just tested using the The Clear Water version of the MOD and was able to see the Mi-8 sight. Furthermore I was also able to confirm that the The standard mod + @Taz1004 texture fixes version also made the sight invisible in the Mi-8 but it came back after I reinstalled the mod and that was strange! (Maybe rebuilding the fxo and megashaders2 contents in Saved Games was the fix?) Also as noted by @5ephir0th, the "Gazelle" helicopters rotors are invisible with this Mod and Helicopter Cockpit Glass is also missing. The new A4E Cockpit Red Radar Filter is also invisible with this shader mod. I did gain an average of 5 FPS! Moving forward I will just switch between different versions of this shader mod, Kegetys original mod and Mustangs 2.5.6_Shadereffects 1.3. I have little doubt that when ED releases Open Beta 2.7 and the new clouds, most of the shader mods will need to be updated or get deprecated.

LoL.. I forgot about that "handy" locking collar. I decided to not install it when I first got my stick because it was a pain to take off and put on. At the time of my mod I must have been to lazy to visit my storage locker to retrieve it but had that lonely hose clamp in my junk drawer. I think I want to look for some RC Car suspension shock absorber next and see if it makes a better helicopter cyclic. NO ETA..
-
Yes, that is a fair suggestion. For now I use the built in Chrome Browser keyboard commands like: Ctrl + Home and Ctrl + End to quickly go to the top or bottom of a long page.

If anyone is interested: I added a Joystick Bind for the AirBrake. It is good for anyone with an X55 or X56 that wants to use the Slider on the Throttle for Air Brake Retract and Extend. I just Inserted the line into the dafault.lua located in: \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Aircraft\A-4E-C\Input\joystick {down = iCommandPlaneAirBrakeOff, up = iCommandPlaneAirBrakeOn, name = _('Speedbrake Slider - CLOSE/OPEN'), category = {_('Throttle Grip')}}, -- for Slider Switch on X56/X55 or any 2 Position Switch |UP = Pressed & DOWN = Released| default.lua

@SkateZillaMaybe you can find someone with a 3D Printer and can try this: V2.0 Thrustmaster Warthog replacement gimbal https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4550666

I just downloaded the latest version A-4E-C 2.0-beta-1: Nice to see the better stall and F-14 like shake when turning at slow speed. It certainly does feel like a much different plane with the EFM. Nice selection of Instant Action Missions a liveries too! Thank you very much to the A-4E-C Community of Developers.

The Glitch is fairly easy to reproduce and it shows up nicely on track files. It is especially easy to see the glitching when you slow down a replay to 1/8, 1/16 and 1/64 speed. The positive side of me wants to hope that the NEW CLOUDS WILL SOLVE EVERYTHING.

I have seen DCS take a good few minutes when starting up for the first time after an update or changes to graphics settings via Mods. I will sometimes display the contents of the fxo and metashaders2 folders in my Saved Games. If I see files being updated or created with very current timestamps, I know that DCS is still rebuilding FXO and Metashaders in the background.

Graphics fracturing at low level
YSIAD_RIP replied to GunslingerII's topic in DCS: Spitfire L.F. Mk. IX
Here you go... This Glitch has been Reported. See this thread for updates: -
Congrats! Just curious - what did you have to do to get it finally working? Others may find what you did helpful in their troubleshooting ... Cheers.

AV-8BNA Armament Control Panel: Graphics Off Has anyone else have the situation when in Landscape Mode the buttons on the far left and far right overlap? I have seen this on my Note 9, HUAWEI T5 and Nexus 10 Tablets. Looks like the graphic is not scaling properly when rotated.
