acerus77 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 As an early A-10 Beta buyer I am sooo happy to get the promised NTTR-Map at least. But i never imagined that it would be that awesome! I have to admit that i was a little pissed when the Map was delayed and delayed and delayed and so forth. ED will at least fullfill their promise, coupled with a complete new Engine..... Thanks for the work ED, and to do what you promised. :thumbup: Win7 64bit Ultimate / MSI MPOWER Z97 / i7 4790K@4,4GHz / Thermalright Silver Arrow IB-E / EVGA GTX980 Superclocked ACX 2.0 / 16 GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3-1600 / Creative SB X-Fi / Sandisk Extreme Pro 480GB SSD / 1TB WD Black Caviar HD / Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 1050W / Be Quiet Base 800 / TM Warthog HOTAS / TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Acoustic_ Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 New here so forgive the ignorance... Watched the above video with the chatter and have to say I'm beyond impressed. It was mentioned at around 5:30 into the video that more maps will be developed including Vietnam at a later date. I'm just wondering if anyone can point me in the correct direction to get more information on this or if it is just a wish right now. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its assumed by many that we will get maps to match the aircraft we have, era specific environments is important to ED.

But original size was pretty small, so not sure a F-15C would enjoy it much :) Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But original size was pretty small, so not sure a F-15C would enjoy it much :) yeah, i know that will be a small map (hopefully will be very detailed and dense with mapobjects in contrast) but will be great for bvr/gunzo/furball dogfights with modern ACs as well :D and with vehicles of Combined Arms too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) No info on how big the maps could be. It's disappeared or I can't find it anymore but at one time I remember Wags posting that the size was only limited by developer time and money (not in those exact words but close enough). Found it http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1900652&postcount=3 Now that we are getting very close to integrating EDGE into DCS, I can share a few more details. 1- DirectX 11 / DirectX 11 Windows 8 based. 2- Can support up to four GPU (either SLI or CF). 3- Uses clip maps. 4- Two cloud layers can be created with options for none, cumulous, cumulous nimbus, and stratus. 5- Terrain shadow projection is supported. 6- World can be as large as the designer wishes them to be, it is more of a question of development time / map detail. 7- Option to project map on globe surface.

NRG-Vampire Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) would be great a simple global sphere map by ED (with very simple contours of continents and elevation datas) and then all the map developers will be able to place their detailed maps on that global world map we will able to fly from one map/scenery to another - just like in FSX/Outerra 7- Option to project map on globe surface. <--- does it mean the same as my wish above ?

Outlaw24 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Will there be a Bug patch before DCS 2.0? Since we don't know when DSC 2.0 will be released in Alpha, will there be a patch to fix some of the current bugs that have been reported and said to be fixed in the current internal build or will they be delayed pending a DCS 2.0 release?

joey45 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Well, at a guess, they'll release after the blockers are fixed. I'm sure they'll release a bug list of what they know of. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Witchking Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I would think the issue would be with object #?? Just like how ED ran into the issue with maximum number of objects in the current engine, perhaps with EDGE...until they actually try some computations out, we won't know if the WHOLE world canvas would be possible.
