    As a "temporary hack" for Syria I renamed the Syria.sd5 file so that at least I could stop the stones and some other ground clutter from "growing" in. \DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\terrains\Syria\surfaceDetails\xxxSyria.sd5 I hope Ugra Media and Eagle Dynamics can get around to fixing the pop-in Surface Details in a future patch.
  2. YSIAD_RIP
    Yep.. I starting posted comments on this today as well. Looks like an easy low hanging fruit problem for DCS to solve. The Slider option to remove or reduce the surfaceDetails is a very reasonable suggestion! And there should be an FPS increase on the ground as well!

    Thanks for the Update @NineLine. (Edit 1) As a Hack I just tried Renaming the Syria surfaceDetails folder to \Mods\terrains\Syria\surfaceDetailsxxx. And the map still look very impressive without Trees - lol (Edit 2. ) Renaming Syria.sd5 is less of a dramatic hack >> \Mods\terrains\Syria\surfaceDetails\xxxSyria.sd5 One solution would be to include a Slider in Special Options or in the Setup Menu that can minimize or remove SurfaceDetails. I also got about 14 more FPS on the ground with Syria doing this renaming butchery. Good Luck to the Map Makers and Eagle Dynamics on finding a more professional solution. Cheers.

    100% Agree with the thread! The artists and Devs that create these maps deserve a lot of credit for the details that go into these maps that probably 90% of the users never realize or appreciate. Just for fun and as a HACK I Renamed the Syria.sd5 file to: \Mods\terrains\Syria\surfaceDetails\xxxSyria.sd5 I really thing a Special Menu slider to remove some or all surfaceDetails would be one workaround to the POP-IN distractions on all maps in DCS.

    @tobi, thanks for the OH-6A v1.51 update. I own the Gazelle and OH-58 but just love how exceptional the OH-6A has become! tuned friction (again) ---- Much appreciated!

    Tobii feedback

    YSIAD_RIP replied to Webber's topic in Italian

    @Webber, I have been using TOBII for over 2 years. The one thing that has impressed me is the updates and enhancements added to the Tobii GameHub software since I first installed it. Camera Boost was a very nice feature! I stopped using the eye tracking in DCS - it works but not good for DCS at all. The recent addition of Opentrack (Beta) is exciting because that it is brilliant software and offers greater compatibility for use with other games that we can't talk about here.. lol I used TrackIR5 for years but hated the tracking issues when external light sources or some daylight from a nearby window would interfere. Obviously the $$$ COST $$$ of Tobii is a negative when compared to some of the excellent FREE solutions out there. In the end it all depends on your budget and your passion to try new things. Good Luck

    Just watched the same video because it popped up in my Youtube Recommended feed. In the comments there was mention of an SU25M Mod being developed - Hope it is a is a success.

    @Retnek I agree. I can only assume the developers have their own artistic reasons for the green saturation. You may already be aware but there are a couple of mods out there that solve the problem. Darker Normandy - Simple Gama Changes to the shaderOptions.lua VIVID NORMANDY- Many changes to vfstextures and some to shaderOptions.lua or

    Agreed. Not much you can do with the Good Old Nevada Map these days. I remember buying this when it first came out with DCS 1.5/2.0. For now all I do is try to fly near sunset or sunrise and set gamma in the Desert.lua to something between 1.35 and 1.45 and sometimes use the "New" Blue Tint Color Grading filter found in the SYSTEM options. -- Line 6 in \DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\terrains\Nevada\shadingOptions\Desert.lua -- surface = { ['landShadowsSharpness'] = 0.2; ['diffuseGain'] = 1.2; ['landAOminimal'] = 0.43; ['gamma'] = 1.43; -- Default is 1. Values of 1.35 to 1.45 are OK ['surfaceColorBias'] =

    MiG-29a will be another DCS Work of Art. If it comes over the Holidays.. then Merry Christmas!
  11. YSIAD_RIP
    So far so good. I have a fresh 63GB MOD file. On a site note I am happy because I can install and uninstall the MOD in seconds using SLAM.
  12. YSIAD_RIP
    I still love all my other Razbam Planes. A suggestion: If @Eagle Dynamics @BIGNEWY Offer a bunch of ED Miles this Holiday season for purchasing the F15E.. I will buy it!
  13. YSIAD_RIP
    Very nice addition to my DCS Mod Library! Nice to give Caucasus a refresh from time to time.
  14. YSIAD_RIP
    Very happy to have the Mirage 2000 and glad it is still on sale. Not worried about it's future.

    The Damper has about 25 settings. You should be able to easily pull it in and out at the lowest setting of 1 (S). On setting 25 (H) it should be very hard to pull in and out. My Damper is probably defective because at settings higher than 10 it hangs and sticks and is inconsistent in the damping. I will get around to putting in a ticket when I get a chance. I have another damper from my older rudder set that was modified and that damper works much better on my Orion than the OEM one that shipped. Cheers

    I also put two smaller Shakers on my Left and Right Rudder Pedals...

    I have been using Springs from Ali Express. Springs are a matter of preference and if a flight stick extension is being used. I ordered 2 Diameters and switch them out if and when needed. Ali express links to one of the stores that sells similar springs: Jindong Store Link to Open Hook Tension Spring in Store Possible Spring Sizes (you can measure your preferred springs sizes if you have a precision caliper/Vernier Length: 30mm Wire Diameter: 1.4mm Outer Diameter: I have tried 10mm, 12mm. You can measure the springs you want to match or try several other stiffer or softer. Good luck all.

    Hey @BIGNEWY how about it? Any of the Eagle Dynamic Developers interested in spending a couple of afternoons to get this updated? Cheers
  19. YSIAD_RIP
    This last update on the OH-6A did the trick!!!! Can't wait to fly this some more later tonight.. Cheers and thanks a bunch!!

    Check out DCRealistic from rKApps. They have a 7 day free trial. This DCS Forum also has a few threads on the 3rd Party Program this is now approved by Eagle Dynamics. I like it and so do others on this forum.. Cheers.

    Resting "BIANKA" Face.

    As a Test: If you are overclocking your Video Card, try to remove the overclock. I have seen the white dot's in the past with a bad GPU overclock. - Good Luck

    Optimized Core: @Taz1004 Mirage F1 >> From what I can see the texture for the F1 Afterburner Exhaust (Turkey Feathers) is missing. Not sure if I noticed any other glitches. Looks like In July 2024 Aerges added new external model textures and the external 3D model was overhauled.
  24. YSIAD_RIP
    For me in 2D Mode the distracting, sparkling, twinkling, shimmering white dots appear on the left console cover of the older Mirage F1CE and F1BE. Thankfully the F1EE is great!
  25. YSIAD_RIP
    Indeed it has arrived.. good luck with the download.. Looks like a big one.
