DCS Update Patch Notes Discussion Thread

Any info about price?

The garmin already appeared in a video:

Check 00:43

I'm hoping for a very soon release, this week maybe? Why would they add a support today otherwise?

I wonder how this will be integrated in cockpits?

Keep calm guys.. you'll have the opportunity to see all that stuff once the update is released. :)

Thanks! Hope it will fit in other modules too. :D

New caucasus looks stunning

Here she is!

$14.99, although only for the Mi-8 for now it seems.

Wait i didn't quite understand this new GPS module, will i have to pay more to have it on other aircrafts ? Or is this module going to be for multiple aircrafts, if yes, wich ones ?

Edit : Ok first part of the question answered, just didn't quite understand the description of the module, it's a yes.

for 14.99€ i would assume, that it will work with every aircraft that will eventually get support for it.

14.99 per aircraft would be a bit steep...

interesting addition nevertheless. more buttons to push are always appreciated:smartass:

No testing other than feel but seems like VR performance is improved... Seem to be getting 90fps in the instant action missions where it was locked at 45...

Ok, i take that back... Georgian Oil War in Su25T is a stutter fest...

What's really really interesting, which no-one I think has mentioned, is that this is a module within a module.

Interesting times ahead methinks.

Oh plenty of people have mentioned it at the Belsimtek section.

Oh, getting a double whammy update today.

2.1.1 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3240469#post3240469

- Edit: Which is live now already.

1.57 public https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3240467#post3240467

- Edit: And live too.

Nice. :thumbup:

A quick initial impression of 2.1.1 update, is that performance is better.

As with the 1.5.7.9 OB update, it streams better from the harddrive now - loading terrain/objects etc. It doesnt stutter so much, and the loading doesnt give those big hits, that I used to have in both 1.57 and 2.11.

Fps wise, hard to tell, since I fly VR, and dont always get a detailed number, but flying low over Vegas, banking hard, and looking at my 10 o'clock, used to push me well below 45 fps and stutter badly. That doesnt happen now. I get an initial dip to 43-44fps for a second maybe, and then its back, steady and smooth on 45fps.

This is just instant action free flight in the F-5, but I always use that one, so i know how it feels between builds.

All of this is ofcourse subjective. How it runs and have run on my system.

Quick Normandy flight in the FW190, in a fps mission I have - just free flight, and several planes I can choose from. The above applies here too. It performs better, but still hits harder when doing the hard banking over towns - got as low as 36fps, and it the climbs to around 40'ish, sits there for a short while, and then 45fps. Better than before (would often plunch to 30fps and sit there for ever), but still choppy compared to Vegas/NTTR. But a step in the right direction surely. Just feels like Normandy moves larger chunks of memory/data.

Edit: And 2.1.1 now has a auto login feature :thumbup:

Glad to see this, thanks for sharing. :thumbup:

From today's news:

The NS 430 is just one of several, planned expansions for the Mi-8MTV2.

Wonder what's that all about?

No, read again ;)

It says there will be various expansions for the Mi-8. I also wonder what they are supposed to be?

Knock-Knock, if you know anything about OTHER planned expansions for the Mi-8, please point me further. I can't seem to find anything about them in the NS 430 section.

Myea, no, cant say I do. I was just a little fast on the trigger ;).

Ok, the campaigns and addons are cool.. when are we going to get to business?
