imacken Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Great to see some fixes today, e.g. the radar in the F-5E, but sad to see no hot fix for the Spitfire LG light or the Hornet DDI and MFCD lighting. Oh well, we have to be patient.

twistking Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 if the new hotfix patch is a keeper, it would be great if it could also hit stable with the beginning of the heatblur f-14 free trial. if not, take your time!

Eldur Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Today I opened my browser with the thought "ED probably just wanted to test us and have released an update today" and there it is I'm glad we did get a hotfix, thanks for that Missing out on a haze fog fix though, but the patch notes aren't complete if you haven't fired up DCS yourself after all That makes the HUD on the A/C that supposedly have been fixed already still unreadable if faced against the horizon It's always been harder to see in that state, but it's much worse at least in BUNO 50321 THRU 50793. Frankly, I’ll take broader (and I hope more “fully cooked”) updates less frequently over weekly slapdashery that often hurts more than it helps. Spacing out the updates will also allow the Devs to weed out the numerous Operator Errors and other manifestations of pure ignorance that always clog the pipeline after every update. It will also, I think, allow Wags to create feature previews which are more in depth because he won’t be racing to produce a video with only hours to spare before an update is released. On ED’s part though, I expect them to respond to “game breaking” bugs in a timely manner and not let issues fester that could, in fact, be patched with a hot fix. I think it's a good way if they separate content updates from actual fixes in a way like they just did today with the hotfix. Having a content update every 4 weeks is totally OK for me, but if things got broken, I'd very much appreciate to see a fix after a week still. If they didn't bring fixes with a 4-6 weeks release cycle, the whole point of Open Beta would be superfluous and jasonbirder might be waiting for another 4-6 months until he gets his Stable fix which again might not be that stable after all edit: The armchair software engineer in me has even better idea: stable release every 2 months, beta every 2 weeks and hotfixes for beta as needed. This could reinstate the stable version as primary version on servers. TBH I absolutely wouldn't mind getting the old 2 week cycle back. Worked rather well until the ditched it around the Viper release. Taking the idea further I'd propose: Open Beta planned every 2 weeks Stable planned every 2 months with the actual goal of having it less bugged than the beta, which would mean it's not just a certain OB build taken over after a week. To get there: Last OB before planned Stable release is just for fixes, no content updates. So there's a whole month still that is just for fixing things so it can go to Stable in a decent state. Example: t - 6w: OB release with new features t - 5w: Hotfix release because something went south t - 4w: OB release with new features t - 2w: OB release that is just fixes t - 1.5w: Hotfix for something that got broken by another fix t - 1w: More intense closed beta test phase begins to make sure the upcoming Stable release exactly is that t: Stable release, jasonbirder happy t + 0.5w: If he wasn't happy, give him a hotfix to his Stable branch before adding new content for the next OB. Probably the most important point BTW ok ED.. When did the ambient bird sounds get introduced?? Sat here in the f18 and i can hear the birds?? lol.. nice touch I'm pretty sure those have been in there for ages, literally. Just depends on where you are, some places have them, others don't, but have other ambient sounds instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawk4me Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 So... We getting anything this week? So our thirsty appetites for new stuff is growing and word on getting something good this week by chance? Normally Wags would be pushing vid's out for any major things so not holding my breath to much but a guy can dream right. Something like oh I don't know Mav's for f16 or maybe even JSOW's. How about ILS alignment in the hornet or something so they not all waving at me while taxing down the runway in 30 seconds after startup LOL.

hawk4me Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Yea the VRAM leak has been hitting me as well. Sometime's it's not an issue other's it's like wtf happened to my dps lol.

The 7fps thing in channels map I can get that pretty regularly. It happens a lot with the f18 if you try it in there. Me thinks it maybe something with the AG radar cause it doesn't show anything on channels map. Possibly causing the issue I do get it flying the p47 as well though just not as bad.

AG radar is borked in channel, did manage to land on the CV while it was next to the pier in Dover. Backed in, so the approach is over the trees on the hill. No FPS dings, though.

Me thinks it maybe something with the AG radar cause it doesn't show anything on channels map. Possibly causing the issue I do get it flying the p47 as well though just not as bad. I had it with a P-47 sitting in a hangar at Hawkinge. Then because of that I lowered my settings, restarted in pancake to see where I am at and I saw numbers close to 200. Back in VR, up to 90 on some occasions, but mostly 45. Went back to some higher settings, but not as much as it was before and it's still around 45 mostly. But TBH, I didn't fly the Channel map that much anymore after that and some Huey sight-seeing. The thing I noticed is that usually it's always that low in fps for the first two or three seconds when things still load up. It's just that it sometimes gets stuck there apparently.

Raisuli Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 A2G Radar layer has to be added to channel, will be in a future update. thanks No worries; wasn't one of those "If you don't fix this RIGHT NOW I won't buy anything else from DCS unless you add something I haven't already bought yet" problems. On the other hand, interesting to know that's a layer. Should have been obvious, but still interesting. How many AG radar sets are there on warbirds (besides the I-16 of course)?

donkeyrider Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I don't have any warbirds but bought the Channel map just for sight seeing in my hornet. Given it's intended usage, I think leaving the AG radar layer until later makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
