Feedback and suggestions on getting started videos

Recommended Posts

Trying to do a few video's on getting started and setup.

 

Things like showing how to position your view and save it, setting up controls. HOTAS and single stick with keyboard recommendations.

How to create a modifier key and what I use them for to double the joystick assignments.

How I setup the controls for FC3 aircraft on my HOTAS.

Trackir and why we use it.

 

My Trackir settings in DCS and how I set it up

 

Video 1 was about how to download and install DCS (My old PC and upgrades when starting out),Looking up your PC spec's and making a list. How to join the forum and get help.

 

Video 2 - Options Menu

This is about launching DCS, setting the options for your pc and making sure it runs ok.

How do I change the default view in the aircraft 15:05

Where are all the DCS instruction manuals (Make links to them 18:10)

More manuals - Chuck's DCS Tutorial Library 21:30

 

I think it's a bit long, maybe only 10 to 15 minutes max going forward.

 

What's the hardest things you find when starting out and getting setup with DCS. Apart from the sim not running at 60 fps on max settings lol.

did you try removing background noise?

 

Not that professional;)

It would be way to hard to block out the noise around here lol. More interested in the guy's and girls sitting on the fence about having a go.

 

Nice easy walkthrough, have fun setting up etc.

 

2:55 Joystick Axis commands

4:09 Axis Tuning (Curvature) Smoother controls around the center

Nice work David OC. Have subscribed to your channel.

 

Like me it sounds like you don't have NBN yet. Still stuck on ADSL 2. :(

I even upload the video's using my phone on 4G. 10MB upload on 4G lol.

 

Otherwise I'm stuck on 20MB Down, 1MB up:(

 

It's also not bad using a tether for MP too. Tested it the other night.

 

Got any other ideas for good just getting started videos? I'm not doing pro video's. There is a million of them and they would look daunting and seem to hard for the guy's and girls thinking or just getting started with DCS.

Hold the microphone as close to your mouth as possible (not too close as you will induce distortion; experiment and see what works the best). If your recording software allows, set audio levels manualy, just keep it lower than -3dB.
