Iffn

Haven't played it myself and I don't know if you already tried this, but according to pcgamingwiki, disabling the sun shadows seems to drastically increase the performance: - Go to the configuration file(s) location. - Find and open varlist_performance.scr with a text editor. - Search for VarInt and change the following to ("i_shadows_sun_on", 0). - Launch the game.

Sounds cool, I'm in

sounds cool, should be able to join with usual 30min delay if it's going to be 19:00GMT

just don't drive his house down with a bulldozer...

Samsung Galaxy S3 here too

DCS: Huey is pretty fun to fly but quite limited compared to DCS: A-10c Warthog or DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark. It's just a very realistic and difficult to fly helicopter simulator with some interesting weapons on it. You'll probably be able to fly some transport, evac and simple CAS missions with it but it's not a powerfull and complex attack aircraft like the A-10c or the Ka-50.

Though I already signed up... !spider I'm in!

I remember playing the F-16 when i was about 8 or 9. I had already played Microsoft Flight Simulator 95 but this was my first flight simulator to feature combat. Good times, thx for remembering. Intro:

Q. What other plans do you have with the ArmA 3 engine? ArmA 2 already saw multiple games in the same engine such as DayZ, Iron Front: Liberation 1944 and Take On Helicopters of which especially DayZ had a huge sucsess. Will this trend continue with ArmA 3 and in which way will it be available for the community? Q. From my experiance with ArmA 2, most of the fun after a while came from the huge amount of mods available for the game, which were shared by the community using Armaholic, SixUpdater and Armarize. Will you be trying to activly support or even guide those mods using your own or the Steam Workshop system or are you just providing the possibility in the game structure for mods to be added? For example, as far as I'm aware, Valve for example introduced a system in Team Fortress 2, in which modders can sell there created cosmetic items to other players using an ingame system, while Valve keeps a certain cut off the deal.

I usually fly the A-10c in DCS World with Zodiac on the weekend and was able to get quite decent with it. There is of course always more to learn with such a complex sim but I'm pretty used to most of the systems now. I also fly FC3 and DCS: P-51D from time to time but more for fun. Also planning on starting with the Ka-50 sooner or later...

awesome, seems to be a pretty high number. looks like we should stream more in the future !good

Nice, I think I'll get the supporter edition since don't have ArmA 1 yet and only have the Combined Operations version of ArmA 2. Also is there an exact time when the game is available?

I'm not questioning your compitence as FTL at all Speirs. I think we sticked to the plan that was given to us and tried to fulfil our mission as best we could.

Demon 3 Vehicle 1: Demon3-1 (FTL) - Speirs -- 148 CH2 -- 343 CH3 Demon3-2 (MEDIC) - Iffn Demon 3 Vehicle 2: Demon3-3 - Nvram Demon3-4 - Rev From the technical side, the mission felt surprisingly playable, despite the 40 people on the server. I died in the 4th engagement, however, form what I saw, I feel like there should be some tactical adjustments next time we roll with that many people. -Rather than moving as one convoy, a "large" force like this could be much more effective if the it was devided into smaller elements, which could move more flexible rather than seperating it into vehicle operators and food soldiers. This would allow the 'high command' to focus on the bigger picture rather than to micro manage each unit. For example, each 6 or 8 man group could get a specific objective, defined by the 'high command', such as securing part of a town, clearing a road of ied's or searching for a weapon chache. Once completed, the group can move on to the next objective without having to wait for everyone. -Assaults on an objective don't always have to follow the road. Doing so from a better or multiple directions through open terrain from different directions is more effective. The open terrain allows the long range blufor weapons to terminate a hostile rpg team much earlier then in a avenue with trees on either side. The attack from multiple directions allows the different elements to be more effective, however the risk of friendly fire increases when merging with other units. Looking forward to the next events on this scale. We'll get better time we adjust our tactics. And on the notion of map markers: A far as I know, the position of all major US Army vehicles as well as all known enemy positions in a combat zone are maked with GPS in there network to enhance there situational awareness. Therefore, using map and unit markers would even be realistic, at least for squad learders or vehicle commanders.

Hey Tac, you can get all the files you need from the digital combat simulator website. I've listed them below: Download links: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?ProductId=21&end_pos=137&scr=product&lang=en Download instructions: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/faq/download/ Instalation Instructions: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/faq/install/ As marked with red text in the instalation instuction, you need to remove all previous versions of DCS World. If you have one or multiple stand-alone instalation of modules, you don't have to unintall them. After DCS World is installed, you can use the auto-updater to update it without having to redownload it. Once you have your DCS World installed, you can play with the Russian Su-25T Frogfoot for free. All other modules need to be downloaded seperatly and activated using a valid activation key. Guide: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/faq/activate/ If you have the Steam-version of A-10c, you can use the Steam-key to activate the A-10c in DCS World. If you have any other problems, please specify them in more detai.

Awesome Semler! Thinking about doing the same once i get a second screen.

Already got something else planned for today, hopefully i'll be able to join next time. Good luck and have fun.

Don't really like ww2 guns thb !dntknw and the i44 mod for ArmA 2 always looked like a free version with less problems

Yea, Savage, the post is manly for those who do have A-10c but just weren't able to get into it due to its complexity

I noticed that a few members of the VG-community bought DCS A-10c Warthog but weren't really able to get into it. Since the sim has quite a steep learning curve and requires a lot of research and reading outside the game, I would like to share my knowledge by giving organized training sessions and material as well as quick tips on demand to those who are interested, similar to the ArmA 2 ACE-ACRE training. Please take part in the survey and select what kind of training you would like. So far, I sepparated the basic training, which contains the main aircraft and weapon procedures such as start up, targeting pod, maverick and bomb usages from the more advanced skills, such as in-dept weapon set up, JTAC and data-link. More detailed training plans will be set up as soon as I know, how many people are interested and how skillful they already are. About DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark: I currently have a working joystick profile and know the basics about the helicopter, but I don't know enough yet to really help people learning it.

Not really interested in arma 2 atm, might join you guys from time to time tho. Haven't voted yet

Most announced and existing DCS-products, including 3rd party, can be found here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=96607 Note: "Q: Are third party modders going to be held to the quality standards shown by the A-10C? Matt: Yes, in terms of 3D modeling, textures, animations, audio, 6 DOF cockpit, and mouse interactive controls. It will however be up to them to decide the level of fidelity when it comes to systems modeling and flight dynamics."

Pretty busy atm but Saturday evenin seems works for me. So I'd be happy to join if there's still room.

Sounds fun, I'm in. Would be nice to get into that M113 !racing Source: http://www.flickriver.com/photos/madphysicist/sets/72157623749920871/
