Open Conflict - Server Information

[fitness88]

DCS is running in 4k even with single gtx970 with stable 60fps offline, online it can get down to 34 fps. SLI isn't active in DCS anyway at the moment. But if you like flashing clouds and extremly dark cockpit shadows, you can enable sli for dcs in nvidia inspector.

 

Is SLI the process of joining 2 CPUs from 2 seperate graphic cards so they act as 1?

Any news on MiG-21 unable to contact AWACS or ATC?

Any news on MiG-21 unable to contact AWACS or ATC?

 

Well, I don't own the MiG21 so, for this stupid reason, I can't access the Mig21 radio panel in mission editor and thus can't setup the radio channels. :doh:

 

I tried to hack the mission text file to manually add the radio channels provided in your sample mission but each time I save the mission in the ME, the channels are removed.

 

I am sorry about this but I won't be able to fix this until the MiG21 third party fixes the problem. That's lame. :(

 

Edit: Maybe if you can tell me what is the default channel 0 frequencies when you join a blue and red mig21s, I can change the corresponding awacs freq to those.

+1

 

Edit: i was to slow :)

 

Mirknir, what if i save your mission and send it to you? Would it work maybe?

ha ha no, I don't want to have to go thru someone each time I update the map or adjust the current version :)

 

If it's not 124MHz like every posts tells me, I just want to know what is the default channel 0 for mig21, on blue or on red side.

Then I will change the AWACS from 124Mhz to the corresponding freq.

 

And don't hesitate to report the bug on the MiG21 forums

Yep, I tried the "solutions" to enable 4K, and not only did clouds flicker and cockpits become dark holes, it actually ran worse. And I get the same result as you with the single card, so I will just stay with that until I can do a Pascal based build.

Misc

 

• Change some internal names in the mission to prepare the mission for Skynet 2.0 coming up soon©

Mirknir, unfortunately channel 0's freq really is 124 MHz in the mission editor for both red and blue sides.

 

Perhaps if you changed the AWACS's freq to 150 MHz to match the 21's channel 1 (aux) it may work.

it's worth a try, but i don't think it will work. The mission itself is already properly set up to work with MiG-21. I tested it yesterday, opened the mission from track in ME, saved it as mission without any changes and started it. AWACS and ATC worked just fine on MiG-21.

So my guess is that it will only work if Mirknir will own the MiG-21bis module, or if the devs fix that MiG-21 bug (wich i believe is a bug, because only MiG-21bis seems to be affected)

DCS in 4K is stunning, if you have the power to run it. My 4790K and SLI 970's are decent enough. Now we just need proper SLI support from ED/Nvidia. Hence my post above making sure F2 would still be available. :)

 

I have a single 970 and its great ("decent enough").

 

I can't recommend Samsung UHD sets enough for 4K PC gaming....

I agree. I am seeing the same good performance with a single 970. I am using a Samsung 40" UHD TV and it is really nice. Can't recommend it enough.

 

- can still run 1080p on a 4K and it looks as good as native 1080p panel

- can use gaming mode for good response time (eg twitch gaming in First Person Shooters)

- can use 120hz frame creation (smoothing) in flight sims for super smooth panning (judder / jitter reduction during panning with trackIR etc..)

 

About the only downside is the size of text (chat, radio chatter, ATC menu)... it's tiny and hard to read.

Any hints on what Skynet has coming for us??

MiG21 Radio

Ok so tracing the mission editor lua code, I managed to write a 'bypass' to not say a 'hack' to have my mission editor think I own the Mig21 and thus behave accordingly in terms of edition tools.

 

With this 'bypass', the MiG appears as yellow and the radio preset tool is here.

 

I cannot test it as I don't actually have the MiG21 but the mission now retains the presets instead of deleting them

 

Gonna try to release an update with this and see if it creates a black hole.

 

Stay Tuned

[Mirknir]

In map 4.7.1

 

Mig21

 

• Hacktempt #1 to make the mig21 and awacs compatible (see previous post)

I'm happy to announce your "bypass" worked, Mirknir! Thanks for the hard work!

Glad to hear it!

 

Now, go kill some F15s for me :)

Quick question for all of you who enjoy this server as much as I do. Would you be interested in a dedicated Teamspeak server for use here? Often times I find myself on the server, trying to coordinate plans with other players, and having to type it all out is cumbersome at best. If this is something you would like to see either post a reply here, or PM me. I have talked about this with Mirknir, and I think we can make it happen. If there is enough interest in making it happen, i think we can do this fairly quickly. Let me know what you all think.

[FraserNZL]

+1 for Teamspeak. Great Idea

[CrimsonGhost]

Mirknir, I noticed the post above mentions that the server has been updated to the latest version. Which version is that? When I start up DCS 1.5 beta I get prompted to update, but I decline it, and I can get on the server. I dont want to risk updating and not being able to log in. Thanks.

I updated to latest version and can connect perfectly. Update!

That would be excellent!

In Map 4.7.2

 

Su33 AIs have been replaced by Su27, hoping they will behave more properly

[CrimsonGhost]

Hello again all. There is now a Teamspeak server dedicated to the Open Conflict Server for all to use. The server has 25 slots which should be plenty for now. Server should remain open 24/7 for all to use. Rules are the Open Conflict Server's rules. Please let me know about any abuse or rule breaking. Have fun everyone! Address is below.

Mirknir, maybe you can work this into the briefing so everyone knows about it. :joystick:
