89gig patch for me (I own all modules). Its going to take me days to dl this update.

I succumbing to they hype as well. I spent a cpl hrs flying the Hip yesterday as a salve of sorts.

@Vonrd & I knocking things off the Greenie Board

I got it working by unlinking my acct from Steam & downloading it direct.

Welcome @Spartan071 If you decide you want to do more than dabble, we will train you. Schmenkel wants you!

Thanks for the HU! I picked up tank battles just because.

I was just deleting some screen shots & came across several I took when I made the toss bomb gif. I thought I would post them before I deleted them.

Doing a little night work & really liked how this came out.

Those U-boats are something else. I finally found one & wished I didnt! They are small, hard to spot, harder to hit & have the best gunners in the Reich! Every pass I made at him I took hits till finally my engine seized. I wonder if strafing does anything to them? after I missed with both bombs I made 4 strafing passes to no obvious effect.

@Klaiber (Bf109) & @Vonrd (P47)playing. Was fun guys, nice change of pace. We should do a designated DCS Oesau night so we can actually get gud in these beauties!

I've pretty well gotten it down to a science using fixed beam radar for ranging. I can post a tut if anyone is interested in learning it?

Afghanistan 1984. Hitting a stronghold with suspected strong Stinger missile defense.

My google fu apparently isnt as stronk as I thought it was. I couldnt find anything on it. I did find an interesting recount of the Gulf Sidra incident from the Libyan MiG-23 pilots perspective though.

Yep I use the steam version. I have was going to buy the standalone but did a bit of a reality check. I dont have the time to fly everything i have now. Why then am I pushing so hard for another title that will further dilute my time. In the end DCS is my 1st love & so long as it works, all's well in Yogi's world

Nope. I tinkered with it for all of 5mins last night though. I changed the read only on the folder & when that didnt work gave up on it. This weekend I will give it one more concerted effort going through everything again & if still no joy I am going to uninstall it.

Get your juices flowing for the MiG-23!

I feel your pain bro! Glad you got it working!!

Thanks! I have tried all of those things save changing folder option vis a vis read only. I will give that a go this evening.

BoX I had zero problems from 1st launch up until 2 patch's ago & now it wont load at all. Ive done everything I could find to fix it up to & including a complete reinstall with no joy. I have given up on it. CoD OTOH has been fine all along. Whatever it is I hope you get it sorted.

@Vonrd you should be able to do better than what you got settings wise. My last PC was about the same as yours I had DCS set a little more dense (higher graphics) with my frames in the 60s. I could post my own settings when I get home but fear it would be of little help. I run DCS at near max settings. I am not much of a tinkerer anymore. Ive gotten to the age where I just want things to work. However I would suggest checking out VR4DCS. The guy that runs it (Thud) is a guru on all things VR. You will most likely find settings tips there. https://discord.gg/s4mUcKWP

Su-35 is one sexy beast! I want it for tomorrows mission. See how how the capitalist dogs like FOX-3 shots from 60mi away from its R-33s!

LOL! I think our wives must be sisters!! I had the exact same convo with my wife with similar results. I did get my dog but ended up with 2 cats as well.

Sadly I have none. "She who must be obeyed" has the cornered the market on our available wall space. She has a penchant for Rocco & Neoclassicism works. She & I have decidedly different tastes in decor. This is my idea of an ideal living room. This is hers Lets just say our house looks allot more like her idea than mine
