Cedaway Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Very nice update. Specifically for the thread, I'm pretty sure that the rig needed to run EDGE at its full potential all maxed out in Full HD has not yet been invented... And that's not a problem for me. This engine will last a decade, like the current one. The material will come at time to enjoy. EDIT: I just saw the clouds images again and damn, I'm convinced. Thank you ED; thank you Wags for writing this: 'Now that we are getting very close to integrating EDGE into DCS, I can share a few more details.'

Cedaway Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Warning, don't be confused between Dx version of 'core' and the version of the 'functionnality' or 'feature levels' So I guesstimate EDGE would run from Dx 11.0 and will profit new features present in Dx11_2 Edited October 9, 2013 by Cedaway DCS Wish: Turbulences affecting surrounding aircraft...

Psyrixx Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) I have a hardware question. Is it better to invest in a single super-duper-mega graphics card, or several lower-end cards instead? What considerations go into such a decision? Generally speaking it is better to buy the best single card you can afford. SLi and Crossfire both have their own issues associated with them (heat, power consumption, only certain games work well with them, graphical anomalies, etc). After a year or two, if you want more graphics power but don't want to drop another $300 on a brand new card again you can always add a second card of the same make and model as the one you buy now and effectively get close to double the performance (depending on the make and model of the card you get). And at this point, a few years into the future, the $300 card you bought today will be much cheaper. So in my opinion it is always a better idea to get the best you can and view SLI or Crossfire as a future upgrade path. I generally skip a generation: I had a GTX670 when they came out, and went SLI with a second one right before the GTX700 series came out. When the GTX800 series comes out I'll grab the best version of that card I can afford and SLI when/just before the GTX900 series comes out. It works well for me.

genbrien Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Is it better to invest in a single super-duper-mega graphics card, or several lower-end cards instead? What considerations go into such a decision? depends of the budget. But I had once 2x ati4970 and I regreted it. Microstuters/driver problems/1 card that was better than the other.... If you're lucky you won't have any problem, but if not then it's a real pain :( Personnally I would save to buy a bigger card (dont take a card like the 6990, wich is 2 card in Xfire on physically 1 PCB) Do you think that getting 9 women pregnant will get you a baby in 1 month?[sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Mobo: Asus P8P67 deluxe Monitor: Lg 22'' 1920*1080 CPU: i7 2600k@ 4.8Ghz +Zalman CNPS9900 max Keyboard: Logitech G15 GPU:GTX 980 Strix Mouse: Sidewinder X8 PSU: Corsair TX750w Gaming Devices: Saytek X52, TrackIr5 RAM: Mushkin 2x4gb ddr3 9-9-9-24 @1600mhz Case: 690 SSD: Intel X25m 80gb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is in fact how ED will be releasing it's maps, projected on the globe, my faith has just been restored slightly with EDGE. Yep, very interesting. Maybe we could get a group together and do a major continent. I envision something like that taking a few years to complete though depending on the group size. Once the sequester is over I'd like to convert Kansas from the nationalmap.gov. Wanting to do McConnell AFB and Smoky Hills Gun Range.

Psyrixx Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I am curious and maybe this can be answered now or not, will EDGE integration into DCS World power the existing Caucuses region? I understand the terrain textures, building models, etc wouldn't get a graphical overhaul but I am curious as to whether the updated engine will lead to improved frame rates on the existing map and/or whether the existing map will be updated to work within the new engine. Last I heard, Nevada would use EDGE and Russia/Georgia would continue to use the existing engine, just curious if that is still the case. The phrase "integrating EDGE into DCS" piqued my curiosity on this matter.

Harpoon Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Nevada and Edge news! 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. :thumbup: If you want to talk to anyone about anything personal, send it to their PM box. Interpersonal drama and ad hominem rebuttal are things that do not belong on a thread viewed by the public. One thing i have to point out... naming a thread.. "OK, so" is as useful as tits on a bull.
