FC3 Bug thread

[Presing]

EOS is gyro stabilized in BVR mod. What i meant to say is it's what ever you look with your nose up or down the EOS will be always leveled with horizon.

[59th_Buncsi]

KOLS is NOT gyro stabilized. It will show directly where the plane nose points.

[ralch]

It depends on what resolution you want to play. I play with 1920 x 1080 with 45-50 fps. However, this resolution, with everything set to max, is not possible to mantain 60 fps at groung.

Thanks Dio. My current setup is an Alienware Aurora i7 960 3.2Ghz(3.5-Turbo Boost), 6GB RAM, Win7-64, HD Radeon 7990. Graphic settings Maxed and CCC-Profile Balanced.

 

My resolution is 1920x1080 with 1 monitor. When playing on the air, I get 60 fps stable. On takeoffs or on ground bombing missions, or at low altitudes near airports, there is a lot of stuttering and unstabilities reaching 20fps to 35fps.

 

Is your situation similar? If yes, then I think I should not upgrade to 2700K.

i have a i7-2600k @ 3.8, and a gtx570, 8gb ram, and i get the same problem, its just how the game runs, esspecially when someone drops cluster bombs, what you can do to get you better preformance is lower 1024 from every frame to just 1024, visually theres no difference, and turn the fancy TSAA off (cuz it has no visual difference) and putting MSAA lower since at FULL HD the difference between 4x and up is almost unnoticeable in gameplay, in screenshots you can see it though, lowering the tree render meters as well as the preload (since you dont really need max preload, and even the default is a bit too much), all of that will make it run much smoother, also you wont notice much of a difference in FPS between the 7990 and the gtx 680 if any.

 

anyway waaay offtopic here.

The best way to avoid stutters is to get a SSD at least a small one (sata 3 and 32gb) and then use intel tools to use it as a cache disk.... I haven't any stutters since I move to ssd tecnology. FPS count is another thing apart....

In game in BVRmode it is gyro stabilized, in real life it's not.

[59th_LeFty]

True, the annoying part is that in mode '3' vertical scan the KOLS follows all the the aircraft's axis, so this lack of feature could be done.

On the list and has been for a while now so we are well aware of the issue. With FC3 still being Beta it is accordingly not the main priority of 1.2.3. It will however be attended to in due course.

Hey, FC3 is our last shot......I'm not going to forget :D

[Robin_Hood]

Yes, Fuel consumption is wrong but not as you suggested.

[...]

So I think the actual fuel consumption is correct but dial is not... looks like it could have an extra zero in it.

 

Actually, I think there is something seriously wrong with the fuel flow gauge. I tried comparing 90% power setting at 5 000 ft and at 38 000 ft. Both have the dial showing 82 000 lbs/hour. I have not tested thouroughly enough to check if actual fuel consumption does change with altitude, but I'm reasonably sure it does (since it did in previous versions).

[Kuky]

Yes, the fuel consumption gauge is off, it's reported to ED already so it should be fixed with future updates... no guess as to when that will be :)

One more MP issue found, maybe somebody can also confirm.

Multiplayer session, with AWACS available (Russian A-50 + couple of Su33 and Mig29S).

Only the hosting server can see the targets reported by the AWACS on the HDD.

The other clients receive the messages from the AWACS, but no marks on HDD, nor friendly nor foe.

[TurboHog]

Isn't there something wrong with the new missile AFM?

 

R60 does not reach mach 2.7 (ok I admit the source is wikipedia, but still). Is this a maximum possible speed when launched at mach 2 or something?

 

On the other hand, the SA-9 missile just about breaks the sound barrier while it should be capable of doing mach 1.8...

 

I see in the update list 'R60 data adjusted'. But nothing about the SA-9.

 

Something wrong with the AFM?

[Suhoj27]

PR sound

 

Hi

 

One remark. Is it possible to implement the PR (pusk razreshon) voice comand for russian aircrafts ?

 

This is from real life (Serbian Mig-29 on exercise in Bulgaria at 6:50 and 9:50):

 

 

I think it will be a great realistic addition.

 

Thanks :smartass:

I just wanted to ask the same question. As a host I'm working as a secondary AWACS and reporting contacts from MFD to another players :joystick:

 

Btw: I don't see this bug on the list as well.
