Hi guy, not sure if this have been noticed by others, but after the 16/4 update opening flir image on mfd of my hornet causes a FPS loss and stuttering while panning around with tr5. It happens most of times when select a wp target on hsi. As soon I get near target zone it disappear.. I never had it before the build update... Any advice?

exactly! yesterday i was flying in abu dhabi area at approx at 3000" feets with just 8 knots of wind and the waves appeared to be so big that if were true they could have flooded all the costal areas... I think that this could be implemented in a better way just changing the scale how the phenomena is represented at the various altitudes.

Hi guys, the sea effects and water in general has been improved so much in the latest builds and with 2.5.6 you did really good job. Congrats!:thumbup: My only concern is related to the visual scale of representation of the sea waves when there is a minimum wind force: if at low altitude they are shown very well and in a pretty realistic way, from approx 1000 feets and above IMHO they are scaled in a not natural way. For example if i set only 6 knots at sea level, the waves effect while flying at 2000" along a whatever coastline have such length and height that is seems there is wind/sea storm occuring with 50 knots of wind... I dont know if somebody else have noted it... regards:)

Just made a clean install as you suggested, but it didn’t change anything :( I try to explain better: I have the x52 throttle, the afterburner is engaged in the last 15-20% of total run. As soon as I enter that range, I hear only a “boom” that should be correct but it is supposed to be a continuous sound until I remain the ab range, instead it stops immediately. It occurs every increase of throttle, always within that range. Every increase on throttle -> single boom and stop ab sound Heeelp:)

Hi guys, as in title, from in cockpit as soon as I push throttle in ab range (any plane with ab), I just hear like a ‘bang’ at the beginning and then I can’t hear any sound related to ab, while I continue hearing other usual sounds. Also from external view ab sound is not really clear. Seems to be a audio card corruption for something.. Any advice?:)

Quoted! The most unreal item of this marvelous sim is the water, sea or lakes or rivers, when flying it's like you are at 10 m height instead 10.000". It could be sometime acceptable only if considering low level flight over a small alpine lake. I'm sure dcs devs are trying to have something different but it's since lock-on we see this unreal-looking sea... Pleeeease fix it! Dcs world 1.5 is definitely AMAZING, you are my heroes for the outstanding job, but this it's not at the same degree of simulation. :smilewink:

Totally agree :thumbup: this video is simply amazing and the fact that lately we are having all such videos makes me think world 2.0 and nttr edge release date is getting closer.. can't wait!:pilotfly: Please Matt release it as it is....:D

Thank you guys for the advices!:thumbup: I will wait for EDGE/world 2.0 is out to check performance and then buy the new video card. Meanwhile i bought the asrock Z97 estreme 4 and an i5 4690k + the new SSD 250Gb 850 Evo that I guess should be handling well the new 2.0 sw.

Made the order! i5 4690k Asrock z97 extreme 4 Corsair 2x4Gb vengaence 1600 MHz CL9 Samsung SSD Evo 850 250Gb :pilotfly: Video card still to decide...

Thank you!:thumbup: Glad to hear it.. :book:

You are right! actually price of boxed 4690k is equal or even lower than 4670k (don't know why...). So i'm getting that model and (by now) save money of cooler :smilewink: What about RAM modules and type?

Hi guys, I'm to update my old rig for the incoming dcs world 2.0. After reading many posts and looked at configs of many of you, this is what I'm getting to: i5 4670k (performance of 4770k does not worth extra money) 2x4Gb (8Gb should be more than enough, isn't it?), better ddr3 1600 pc3-12800 cl9 or 2133 pc3-17000 cl11? Better g-skill ripjawsx or corsair vengeance? Hdd SSD Samsung 840 Evo 250Gb M/B: better Asrock Z97 extreme 4 or MSI Z97 gaming 5? Or any other cheaper solution with same performance in dcs? Video card: i will keep my GTX 460 untill world 2.0 is out, then i will decide if take 1 GTX 970 or 1 GTX 760 or 2 GTX 760 in SLI, depending on how such cards will perform the new engine. Which CPU cooler do you suggest? Maybe light OC.. What do you think? Please advice!! Alessandro

Hi dev team, maybe it could be very useful for many users (me as first!) to know if new EDGE DCS World 2.0 + NTTR, to be released hopefully in the next weeks, will require similar hw specs and config to have same performance of the actual DCS world version, or you suggest an hw upgrade. thank you for your advice :) Alessandro

Great video and presentation Matt! :thumbup: It really provides to customers a detailed overview of DCS World. A pitty that I've already paid for A10 & Ka50, otherwise I would run to buy them... Hope next fighter module will be announced asap :pilotfly:and that it will be a F15 or F18 :D:D. Can you all imagine what would be flying a DCS-F15C into Edge Nevada map??? mmmmmmmmmh ;)

great story mate! The only thing I'm not practicing is air-to-air combat... :thumbup:
