Very cool!
I thought this was the real winner of the Videocontest

This is also pretty good

Hey Ralfi, is it at all possible to join you for games, or do you keep it to closer friends only?
Yo, Ralfi, I was wondering: how do you even know about Facepunch?

He says in the OP, people have asked him to come here. He was almost banned because this thread was his first post :v:

So [B]that's[/B] why linebacker has such a pottymouth! :v:
For those who have been asking for a more uncut version of flight, here you go gents. Enjoy!

hehe, was just about to post here about this.
You really don't post that much of your own stuff here, despite it being your thread :v:
Was thinking about buying the F-15 module. Are there 24/7 servers that are always populated that you can fly your sorties at will in?

The 104th server always has at least 6-8 people on it and 30-50 people at peak times. It's basically the go to instant action multiplayer server.

How'd you meet Bluedrake42?

excuse me but can I have my sides back ralfi, they have have left from laughing so much.
I really need them!
I have bought the F-15 module. Hooray. And because it's not as complicated as BMS or the A-10 that I own, I can actually fly the fucking thing without TrackIR
The flight model for the F-15 is spot the fuck on. Makes BMS feel like an arcade game
Is there a setting for DCS that makes it run like not shit? I can look straight down at the ground I'm parked on and zoom in and it'll reach a max of 70fps, then looking out and if there's any buildings, it drops to 25. It acts like there's NO LoD models to switch to or some shit

View distance to minimal, Civs off, try to put the least possible strain on ur CPU.
I used to have terrible lag because my CPU was pretty crap in single thread performance, but after getting the i7 4790k I can run the game on Ultra and still have 80+ fps in multiplayer with 50+ players.

you said the saitek pedals are ok, which do you have? im thinking about getting a yoke and pedals and i saw a review that said the cheapes saitek pedal were pretty shit and you should get ch. oc uk have there cessna pedals for £119 though so thats pretty tempting

Just a really weird game performance wise. It's like I'm using an integrated card or something. I was flying along, no problem, and there were maybe 5 planes in front of me. Not even close enough to be bigger than two pixels at 1080 and my framerate dropped to the low teens. What in the FUCK is with the LoD's in this game
I was flying on the 104th server and some guy got reeeaaallly bent out of shape, called me a Nab, saying Ground attack planes were all I could kill, because I shot down an SU-25. Even though that was the mission and there are servers for basically Team Death Match... What a tosser. He was on my team to boot

put water on the lowest setting
[QUOTE=ChestyMcGee;46972239]put water on the lowest setting[/QUOTE]
Really? Flying over water is the only time the damn game hits and goes above 50. Looking down the runway before taking off with all of 10 hangers and 20 trucks just rapes my framerate. Same with other players flying jets. If 4 or 5 are on screen, it's unplayable
i dunno i just read on a forum somewhere that for some reason the water settings make a big fps difference because it's really weirdly/badly optimised. i did that and went from like 25-35fps at 1440p to more like 50-60
but with me that was more of a problem with constantly low framerates as opposed to dips
dcs is really badly optimised overall anyways. for a start the game only uses a single processor core afaik but i reckon the AI or vehicle physics are pretty badly optimised because even having a few vehicles n stuff at an airfield gives me a drop in fps
for your complaint about aircraft dropping your framerate though, consider what those aircraft are calculating: every second there's thousands of physics calculations to do with lift, drag, humidity, temperature, mass, and every weapon on those aircraft is having similar calculations applied to them too, and not to mention the detail in the radar modelling (which is effectively thousands of raycasts every second). it's pretty cpu-intense stuff so just because you're able to play 144hz crysis at 4k at 60fps because you've got a sick gpu doesn't mean you can run simulators with the same ease

like i can happily play quick missions facing off against a few planes at 30-60fps but if i try and do one of those big campaign missions where there's ground forces fighting, loads of SAM, awacs, transport planes, all that stuff, the fps tanks
also the particle effects in dcs are really terribly optimised. dropping a cluster bomb reduces me to like 10fps it's crazy

I couldn't even play DCS A-10C because a gun run will put my framerate at about 1 every 3 seconds for a bit. At least LOMAC back in the day had some shader mods and the like that REALLY helped. Made those effects just snack food for your GPU rather than rape it.
I'm really hoping the Edge engine in 2.0 fixes this shit up. I can go out into BMS Falcon, have the entire North and South Korean and US Air Force and Army fighting it out on the entire peninsula with no issues, yet DCS? 5 planes and a few hangers tell me to fuck myself
Don't you think it's better if you go to the DCS thread instead?
There's no modding, like fun modding.
