Barthek's CAUCASUS REDONE 2022 REV. 2 Fellow simmers, it is with great pleasure that I would like to present to you the newest revision of my CAUCASUS REDONE 2022 mod. The introduction of DCS 2.8 caused some problems with the previous version, so I decided to revamp it and enhance with some new features. The greatest change comes with the application of the sweetfx shaders which, of course, are optional but highly recommended. You will immediatelly see the difference in vibrance, tones and shading with almost no fps cost. My sweetfx settings will be attached to this post below. REV. 2, just like the previous version, gives you the option to install SNOWLESS WINTER pack, which has also been improved in some areas. I hope you will enjoy this version and have many successful sorties over Caucasus! Looking forward to hearing some feedback from you, guys! Best, Barthek INSTALLATION GUIDE 1. If you're using any terrain mods, please deactivate them to avoid potential complications. 2. Download the MOD in JSGME-ready format from HERE. 3. Unzip the content of this package to your JSGME mods folder within your DCS main folder. 4. Activate the mod in JSGME. You can find a great tutorial on how to do that HERE. 5. Preferably, set your gamma to 2.5. 6. [OPTIONAL] Download and install RESHADE from https://reshade.me. 7. [OPTIONAL] Download my reshade preset from HERE and place it in your DCS World OpenBeta\bin destination. 8. Launch DCS and pray it all works. MORE SCREENSHOTS OPTIONAL SNOWLESS WINTER / LATE AUTUMN: Answering to some requests of having a snowless version of winter, I hereby present to you some screenshots of what I managed to achieve in that regard. Below, please find the download link and instructions on how to install it. Have fun! INSTALLATION GUIDE 1. Make sure you have the main mod installed (it's not a standalone version). You can find it earlier in this post. 2. Download the SNLOWLESS WINTER pack from HERE. 2. Using JSGME (or another mod-managing software) install the optional SNOWLESS WINTER / LATE AUTUMN overwriting all necessary files when asked to do so. 3. If you want to go back to original version of winter, you will have to disable in your JSGME both the MAIN MOD and the optional SNOWLESS WINTER and then enable the MAIN MOD again.

Been away from DCS for many years but recently got back into it a bit. Been learning (relearning?) the A-10C and was trying to get the ILS system to work while loading up the "landing" and "night landing" instant action scenarios. Both are set at Kobuleti. Tried many times without getting the ILS, supposedly at freq. 111.50MHz, to work (TACAN is working though). After looking up a few online guides I noticed they do the exact same procedure, but in their screenshots/videos the ILS was working as expected. They were not using Kobuleti though. I thought this was suspicious so I set up a similar scenario at Batumi using the mission editor, and I instantly got the ILS working.

Hello everyone, new mission is online. Beginner friendly. Offers uncomplicated entry into possible ATC procedures, simple brevity codes and escort flight, as well as navigating by waypoints in rain and light fog. Single player. > Khatia from Kutaisi < In this fictitious scenario, Abkhazia and South Ossetia have joined Russia. Georgia then became a member of NATO. The tensions between Nato and Russia are enormous. Your task is to escort a Tornado IDS on a reconnaissance flight. The mission has plenty of voiceovers and is relatively simple in design with triggers, zones and commands. No scripts or mods were used. Have fun flying or be inspired for your own projects. Feel free to leave feedback here or in the user files.

CGTC (Caucasus Ground Textures Compilation) for DCS World Now presenting CGTC, an alternative package to improve the looks of the Caucasus map of DCS World with extensively overhauled ground textures. I've prepared a "READ ME" in .PDF format, also available HERE, with all the necessary info (mod description, installation notes with suggested settings, credits/thanks, etc). Please take a moment to read it before using the mod or posting, as it should clear the most common doubts. Latest 2.84.1 version (release 21/May/2023) represents the biggest update to the mod since the initial release, with lots of changes, some additions and bug fixes. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Now also optional if desired (if you're into that) you have two different options for the Caucasus' Shading Options, which slightly alter overall tones: - Modified based (CGTC uses this one by default) - Original based With the mod installed, go to the main DCS folder and then into "...\Mods\terrains\Caucasus\shadingOptions\CGTC - shading options selection". Use the respective file as of your preference. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CGTC (v2.84.1) download: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3321589/ - This mod was tested and made compatible with newest and also older versions of DCS WORLD (from 2.5 and up), be it Open Beta or Stable releases. - All of the texture replacements have similar format and size as stock defaults, so the performance is identical (both High and Low resolution packages are included). - With no other mod dependencies, install over vanilla (default) Caucasus map of DCS and off you go. - As usual with this type of mod, it can only work in Multiplayer if on servers with “Pure textures” disabled (in the integrity check). And now for the mandatory screenshots.... Enjoy the CGTC mod!

Multiplayer. Planes going submarine or floating above ground.
-0303- posted a topic in 2D Video Bugs
Bugs been around long before 2.7. Plane float above runway (seen once yesterday). Otherwise varying degrees of underground, just a bit of wheels buried to gears fully buried (saw that too yesterday. Wings buried is rare but happens. I assume it's not just me? Not a huge deal, but not right either. If I'd estimate, I'd see this every second time I fly multiplayer. Old pic. -
I have a few and have seen a few screenshots of the old DCS 1.5 Caucasus and noticed the Ground textures in my opinion look better and have more depth to them, but aside from that one of the biggest killers for me is that theres no more small sandy looking shallow water shorelines, along the edges of the waterlines on the map. It all just looks like a drop off into deep water unless your flying very low next to it and even then it seems very underwhelming. This could be just me but I'd love to see those shorelines again if not the ground textures, but being a free map I certainly don't expect anything.. even the new textures aren't a big improvement.

I made a mission for the Hind. When I first made it, I made a camp within a meadow, enveloped by trees on all sides. However I go to bed, wake up the next morning and boot up DCS to keep tinkering, and find that two areas of the forest have disappeared! A triangle section of forest was removed on the south side of the camp, and the strip of trees to the east have been cleared. No triggers or such have been used to clear terrain or obstacles. Screenshots I took on day 1 of making this mission: Note the south tent and container are hidden in the trees, and there is forest behind the parked Hind... And this is what I found this morning: Also of interest, within the ME it clearly shows in the altitude and satellite view that there should be trees where the voids are to the south and east But once you jump into the mission, the F10 map will display the trees as-rendered...missing: Perhaps also related, I noticed that the first time I boot up the ME from the menu, the trees won't render at all close up, but are barely visible when zoomed out in the ME: This^ however does not render completely treeless once you fly the mission, that's ME-specific only. So this last screenshot may be a separate issue. Attached is the mission I made Mi24 start.miz

I've recently received my 3080, so naturally I did some testing on how far I can push VR DCS wrt to settings. The results are very promising but mixed. It seems that another planes (even stationary ones, like on the Caucasus free flight mission, stationed at Senakhi-Kolki) can tank the fps regardless of hardware used. There are other strange drops in really strange places, like for example when flying upside down, or looking to the floor of the jet at the stick's base (inconsistent). What's more interesting it turns out that the thing tanking frames on the supercarrier isn't the supercarrier itself, but the models on it, which you can see later in the video. Here you can find a recording of my flight with fpsVR graph at the bottom. Video contains both the Caucasus and the Persian Gulf maps, on the later I'm launching from Supercarrier. The audio is in Polish - it is a recording of a twitch stream I did for my friends playing DCS. You can ignore it, although a follow would be much appreciated, thanks! The important part is that you can see the fps, the CPU and GPU usage and frametimes. I was using Speed of Heat's conversion of Kegetys shader mod, IC - compatible. No other mods. System specs for this video: i7-9700k @ stock on a z390 Aorus Elite board 32GB G.Skill Trident-Z RGB RAM 3200 MHz @ 3600 GeForce RTX 3080 MSI Gaming X Trio Valve Index VR headset If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

untilCome Join Our Sunday Night Campaign! Every Sunday night at 9PM EST we host our campaign missions. These missions have a light story behind them, data cards to go along with each mission, and proper briefings. We try our best to maintain professionalism, teach proper procedure, and most of all have fun and work as a team during these missions. They are also persistent, if a group of units dies one mission, they will not make it to the next mission. We also utilize several scripts made by the community to enhance realism, such as the IADS Script, various Moose Scripts, and so on.
