Cobra847 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Hey Guys, Some small adjustments and one critical fix were included in today's DCS update. These are just changes that were either made just after the release build was frozen, or a few hours after the MiG-21 went live. Thus, it does not contain the lions' share of bugfixing or performance improvements that have been made since release. We will keep you posted as best we can as to when we can deploy that patch. Big thanks to you all for your patience and support! We're working hard that you all get the smoothest experience possible ASAP. Changelog below: DCS MiG-21bis Rev. 1350 (September 19th) (DCS Version 1.2.10 32275 Update 2) -- Fixed Force Feedback joystick functionality and constant buzzing. -- Reversed and corrected HSI pointer logic (Circle end is now tail!) (MANUAL & TRAINING MISSIONS NOT CORRECTED TO REFLECT THIS YET) -- Minor improvement in Cockpit framerate (3-10%) -- Adjusted several missions, added several mission images. -- Added “Destroyed Hulk” model and textures. -- Corrected several protruding objects in external cockpit model. -- Minor adjustments in FM (Note: High altitude performance and idle engine drag changes not in this rev.)

Corrigan Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I (and I suspect others who are limited by VRAM) got quite sizeable improvements. I went from 26 to 33 fps looking down into the cockpit.

Eldur Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I went from like ~28-31fps up to 40-42fps in the cockpit with yesterday's open beta patch. So ~25% more frames. Yes! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you confirm what fixes made it into the "Update 2" update and what changes remain pending? Also, it would be helpful if you could use the same DCS version nomenclature, in this case 1.2.10 32275 Update 2, when referring to your updates. Avoids confusing the masses. Thanks.

QuiGon Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I saw this change log too late. After a long pursuit of an enemy fighter yesterday I found myself totally lost with not much fuel left, so I used radio nav to find my way back home. After a few minutes following the circle end of the pointer I felt something wasn't right. The direction didn't concur with what I felt and I couldn't figure out where I was using the map (kneeboard). I then noticed my distance counter was counting up, so I called the ATC on the radio for a bearing. What they told me was the exact opposite of my heading... In the end I made it back home with just about 100l fuel left but I was totally confused about the HSI pointer. Have I done it wrong all the days before? But it always worked!? Well, now I know what happened^^ Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

trindade Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) So there were 2 updates to DCS MiG 21bis? One last night (24 of September) and one today (25 of September)? Hi zaelu. No, there is only one update released yesterday (fixes for the MiG-21 are listed in the first post). Soon there will be a big update with much more fixes and improvements, but we have to wait a bit more.

eyusuf Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Mig-21Bis Toolitips seem to have disappeared with this update. Also using the boundary layer (BLC) sps system doesn't seem to make a difference in low speed handling? Has this been reported? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrigan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 For the SPS, you have full flaps? How low is low speed? You should not exceed 360 indicated, IIRC.

Justin Case Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Also using the boundary layer (BLC) sps system doesn't seem to make a difference in low speed handling? Has this been reported? I tried it just a few minutes ago by flying level at 350 km/h and then turning the system off using the switch, I'm positive I saw the expected effects of turning it off and then on again. http://www.masterarms.se A Swedish Combat Flight Simulator Community.
