Hi,

 

Bought the game a couple of days ago and wanted to say I'm a very happy customer. Very good flight model & avionics simulation. Great looking cockpit. Good performance.

 

The only thing I can complain about is ugly looking ground. Which is especially bad in a CAS simulator. Couldn't you partner up with ORBX? ;)

Ground looks fine to me. I'm too busy shooting things and dodging AA to notice bad textures :pilotfly:

Set your ground texture to HIGH. This is also a mission designer choise. The mission designer can set (force) the textures to low just to fit his server performance.

Yet another reason a dedicated server executable would be awesome. All the graphic components of the sim would be irrelevant server side.

Hi,

 

I aleady have it set to high and was only playing training and quick missions so the server settings shouldn't matter. What I wrote was not really a complaint, more a joke. Simply what ORBX did with the outdated FSX engine (which I play A LOT) is simply astonishing. From what I saw I suppose DCS is based on satelite textures. What ORBX is did is craft each sqm of terrain by hand. Placing treas, roads, and dozens other objects by hand to create a extemelly realistic looking 3d environment (where in the dcs the ground mostly 2d with some random objects).

 

All I wanted to say is that if DCS has such graphics (and I believe it's more a limited resources than a technological issue, although the word is FSX/P3D is still the ultimate simutor graphics engine) it would be simply perfect. I am still amazed with the game. The only real problem I'm having right now is how to convince myself that spending 500$ on the Thrustmaster Warthog is something a grown up is allowed to do :)

Well, ...it's a matter of your standpoint.

 

spending for a game 500$ - no go!

 

but,

spending 500$ for a simulation/hobby - Yes!

Besides, it's down to only $430 last time I saw it on Amazon. ;)

Have to add, this sim never ceases to impress-even with simple things and after having it on the HD since beta. fired up the medium quick mission. Engaged, ate a SAM, limped to the base, repairs, all so sweet.

 

Pictures look great, have you tried this Hassata? Do you like em?

That is an awesome mod. Should be essential for CA.

its fantastic for the Ka-50 , but when you low on v-ram/performance and you only fly the A-10C. -you won't really notice from the cockpit and you can dismiss this.

 

Just make a backup before copying and try it - this can't hurt .

I wonder why ED didn't start with a standalone multiplayer server instead of working towards one. It's a lot easier that way.

Nice plane on that gun...

I have a 2GB HD 7850, I hope it can handle it! I'm trying it out when I go home today.

Not sure if any of the pics in the official CA announcement shows it, but the noise texture in CA is much greater than it presently is in 1.1.2.1 (so we won't be needing that mod for much longer ;))

Out of curiosity, would you happen to know if DCS:World will be upgraded with the CA noise texture? Or you will only see it in the world if you get CA.

The terrain noise enhancement is an integral part of DCS World, so everything will have the nice detail, not just CA :)

Referring to Nevada? I thought that was in-house now.
