RFJack Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Xcom, things became better. I tweaked my view distance to medium, preload radius doesnt seem to make any difference to me, but I still have about 22 frames(for each eye), while looking the units direction. Else I have stable 45. Could you disable the clouds at all, so I'll check if that make any improvements. Edit. Its bad, that we cant take slots from the fields in the middle of the map, such as Chippelle, Cricqueville-en-Bessin & Deux Jumeaux & Cardonville, Lignerolles, etc. Edited August 11, 2017 by RFJack Пилот-камикадзе, поршневод среднего класса.

xcom Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 On next server restart (1.5 hours), the mission will start without any clouds. Please check and let me know. There's also a setting in the mission file for preload radius, I can try to change it and see if we have any different - next step I guess.

xcom Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 So, we tested and done some adjustments, VR players still have some issues with dropped frames (probably more noticeable in VR). Non VR has no problems afaik. Will update if there's anything else that we can do.

rogonaut Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) just thought about the ground targets, there nicely done but i think it would be nice if there where some differences from airport to airport to make it more interesting for ground attackers.(i had my fare share:)) maybe add some vehicles that are harder to kill for some airfields or make a different setup on the buildings and such. it would be great if we could call artillary over the recon menu, but as for now we only have the german brumbär. cheers!

xcom Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 Was great today, thanks to all participants! I noticed some lag on the server and reduced the unit count in the mission from 3800 units to 2800 units, it should also help with FPS. Let me know if you see improvements in those areas!

rogonaut Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 yea was nice, a real airbattle:D blue invasion on chippelle~ i really like that blue flag is about team tactics and not just pure dogfighting. now we just need more people on simple radio! @xcom can u preset the radios for dora and kurfürst to lets say 39, 40, 41, 42? so if we have more wings we can split up comms and get on there frequencies easily if needed. not sure if already done didnt check yesterday. noticed some lag too, maybe someone was tactical alt tabing^^ it definatly gonna add up when we have more than one wing + tf-51 + commander:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rel4y Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Why is Chipelle still available for blue pilots but its red at 100% health? Same for Cardonville etc?

Am I not understanding the operation somehow or is this a bug? It probably bugged out. That is not supposed to happen. Once an airfield has been captured, only the controlling faction should be able to use it. CUrrently, each faction only has a few airfields they can use e.g. Red cannot use Chipelle even if they control it, it does stop blue from using it.

rogonaut Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 u can use captured airfields only for refuel, repair, rearm and the CTLD logistics system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rel4y Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Ok, makes sense. Another thing I noticed is that SRS shows for the FuG16 channel 1 and 2 are both on 40 MHz. Historically channel 1 was reserved for the Y Verfahren, but in DCS its not modeled and we could use it as another radio channel.

Why is Chipelle still available for blue pilots but its red at 100% health? Same for Cardonville etc? Am I not understanding the operation somehow or is this a bug? Should not happen, are you sure they managed to go into the slot? Basically slots are not changed, but selecting a slot is restricted according to the current coalition. Reminder - check if the new reduction of the number of units helps FPS and lag when we get to around 20+ players.

xcom Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Thanks all for another excellent test yesterday... We had more than 25 players in the server and at that load we saw lag starting to appear. This gives us another direction to start investigating further and get it stabilized for more players.

amazingme Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Can you please turn off those labels? They're just ridiculous and it kills the element of surprise which is the most important factor in A2A combat.. "through the canopy SA" is not my philosophy for DCS. At least take into consideration to alternate the usage of the 'magic dot'. Thanks.

amazingme Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I think there's a problem with capturing the airfields.. Dropped the troops and the repair crate and waited for more than 5 minutes. It runs much smoother since you've made the latest changes. Good job!
