ED Team BIGNEWY Posted February 22 Author ED Team Share Posted February 22 5 minutes ago, Qcumber said: The increase in VR performance is amazing. I did a few of my test flights to see the difference. Last night I could run the 109 airfield defence on N2 at 45-72 FPS. I repeated it tonight at the same settings and got 60-90 FPS. Free flight over Cairo in the 109 I used to get around 35-45 FPS. Tonight I got 50-70! I also noticed that eye tracking is a lot better for some reason. I think this must be due to landscape rendering (as YoYo says). Previously I had noticed a slight lag in rendering when eye tracking. This is now a lot better. I need to try Marinas next. great to hear, thanks for the feedback. 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

I didn't notice much difference and got called out in another thread which basically said that the latest version of DLSS needs to be optimised for DCS. I'll try to find it and re-post it here. Edit: I found it. "DLSS is binary compatible. This means that you can replace the executable, but you don't get the new features. There's another video from Digital Foundry on YT that covers DLSS 3.5 in Cyperpunk 2.0. Check it out. The newer, cleaner DLSS will not be available until the Dev's add the new features to the DCS engine." https://forum.dcs.world/topic/343957-dlaa-vs-msaa-for-vr/?do=findComment&comment=5385512 Edited February 22 by Qcumber 2 5800x3d: rtx4070: 64Gb 3200: 1Tb NVME: Pico 4: Rift S: Quest Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only significant update it is going to get for sure is the new landing gear physics... because every plane is in line for that particular update. The last one I recall was the engine sounds. That one was big (no sarcasm) indeed, considering the engine sounds upon release. Speaking of audio. It was a high time for Dora. Any everyday Dora pilot here to record an updated audio demo? There is a big update that is in development and should come out this year, I hope! 3 |Motherboard|: Asus TUF Gaming X570-PLUS, |WaterCooler|: Corsair H115i Pro, |CPU|: AMD Ryzen 7 3800X, |RAM|: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB 3200MHz DDR4, |SSD|: Kingston A2000 500GB M.2 NVMe, |SSD|: Kingston 2.5´ 480GB UV400 SATA III, |SSHD|: Seagate Híbrido 2TB 7200RPM SATA III, |GPU|: MSI Gaming 980Ti, |Monitor|: LG UltraWide 34UM68, |Joystick 1|: Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog, |Joystick 2|: T.Flight Rudder Pedals, |Head Motion|: TrackIr 5.

YoYo Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 A great update that deserves praise :)! Marianas were unplayable for me in VR, currently I have a constant 72 frames here (max for 72Hz Quest Pro), amazing, before it stuttered like hell here. All maps have recived boost (still only the South Atlantic lags behind, unfortunately). Awsome!

Hotdognz Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Nice update thanks. Any update to the DCS Voice, I thought we were getting new code to fix the issue reported with the system rolled out a few months ago, our team was hoping to try it again as we like what we saw when we tried it, but couldn't work with it as it was.

Blindflug Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 The F-18 feels so agile and powerful now. Cant really tell the difference when flaps changing their position in the nose up behaviour though, but overall it is really nice. Also landing in Atc mode on the carrier is a breeze now compared to the old model, where I had to fight the stick and the thrust behaviour, what ended often in a up and down pitch. Now it is easy and reliable and i will use it more often for carrier landings. The Performance seems to be better so far, but i only tried offline so far. Will check tomorrow, when my favourite servers are back online. DLAA has less ghosting for me and looks better and feels a bit more reactive. Unfortunatly clouds still look very grainy and pixelated in far distance on my system, when sun sets or rises behind the cloud layers. Will hope for the future patches, maybe with vulkan to solve the problem.. Bur overall, it seems to be a realy good update! Thanks ED!! And now I cant wait for the next patch (Gib Phantom ;)) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommandT Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 7 hours ago, unltd said: Great patch. Love the FA18 FLCS improvements! Actually damage a left gear on landing! Bravo Zulu! Kneeboards! Spitfire textures looking fine! Whilst I agree that a number of things with the F-18 have definitely been improved, there are still 2 main issues which IMO are not great: 1. It feels just as sluggish in roll as it did before. The newsletter stated that there should be more stability in both roll and yaw axis... that doesn't seem to be the case at all, unless other folk can see it? I can't. Real Hornets sure seem to roll sharper and have less residual roll once the stick is centered - this was the one thing I really hoped would get fixed... and I see no difference. 2. The crazy nose wobble is still a thing in some certain scenarios with rapid roll changes with a certain amount of alpha. This has plagued the FM since day 1... and it's still there Whilst I appreciate the much greater nose-down elevator authority and better ground physics and handling, and flaps and AoA characteristics, I feel like a key part of the FM is just not right. All IMO. Still very much appreciate the improvements 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoLate Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 6 hours ago, BIGNEWY said: we like to revisit our older modules, but we are not a huge company and resources are limited. When we have time we always look to update what we can, as you can see with the FC3 update, and others like the A-10C and BS3. I hope we can share more updates with you all in the future. thanks thanks for the kind words, enjoy! I was thinking not so much for me to fly but it might draw some new prop heads in the game and lead them to buy the modules especially with a free Mariannas map. I have all prop planes and many other modules. I started with Lock on and Flaming cliffs when it started. Ooops I checked in store I already have Flaming Cliffs 3. Thanks for your time in answering my thought. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Jaw Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The new Hornet seems to go nose up a lot now at slow speeds to the point of having to push the stick forward to avoid stalling.

KeyserSoze62 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Would I be correct in that if you have been meaning to do a clean install now would be a good time? As long as I backup my saved games folder all my mappings etc will be saved? Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorata Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Nice F-16C free flight in caucus map get 167-300 fps depending on altitude at 4k DLSS quality and all settings and sliders at the maximum values on a 4090 and 14900K. I believe if I remember right pre update the same was about 140-280ish. will try VR later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
