RE: Which GFX card
Aha, very nice indeed. Now that would be cool
I just went down to my local computer shop to have a chat with him about cards and I took my credit card… very nearly a BIG mistake :???: He started to talk to me about the relative power consumption of AMD v Nvidea cards. We got on to talking about the directx9 issue and being the good salesman that he is he pointed out I could sort that out with brute force, i.e. a GTX 980 which incredibly would still work with my psu. I found my hand twitching on my card which would be financial insanity at the moment and only the fact that the 2006 3d mark score was still appreciably lower stopped me, well I like to think it was common sense actually… Oh so nearly £550 worse off there… he was good !!

RE: Which GFX card
Ok, thx for the reply… I notice in unclocked state our cpu’s are pretty similar but sorry for my nubness I dont know what you mean by bezel correction. I run my game on a standard 24 inch flatscreen at native 1920x1080. In this configuration I have all the ingame sliders maxed out an everything seems very smooth.

RE: Which GFX card

Which GFX card
Hi all,
Am in a bit of a dilema here. I currently run an R9 270x for Falcon and with an I5 4590 the game runs very nice. Thing is the card has only 2gb of Vram and one of the titles I play that is not enough so am upgrading. A 4gb R9 290 seems nice and would run on my psu ok (I think) but I want to change things over as Nvideas use a lot less power and seem to be a lot less hassle in a few more titles at the moment. No probs a GTX 960/970 would be a nice upgrade but I see that these cards have significantly lower scores for 3dmark 2006, which is pertinent for Falcon considering the engine is DX9. We are not talking a small difference here either it is of the magnitude x3 in terms of 3d mark 06 score in favour of the earlier R9 card. I could go far a second hand gtx 780 but I really wan’t 4gb of vram for a slight bit of future proof.
As always, budget is a consideration
Any ideas folks ?

RE: RWR
Yeah thx for that, I to have used Krauses stuff and think they bloomin useful as well although I know the sound an SA10 makes now pretty well, and if I don’t do something quick about it I am also pretty conversant with the sound that follows… BOOM.

RWR

RE: Tips for flying with pedals
I use pedals and tbh I don’t use them in flight that much but they are useful in dogfights. The ability to get the nose (gun cross) round for that split second shot is invaluable and acts like a mini thrust vector.

RE: TomsKorea2015-Reloaded
Total respect for your work, really improves my experience of the game thank you…

CONFUSED
Hi everyone,
I am making a map for my CH setup using control manager. I have got the toe breaks and the throttle and stick working just fine and am using the mini stick on the throttle as a mouse to use in the clickable pit. I seem to have a problem though. On the keymaps that come with the stock install there seem to be some key commands missing (i.e. how to fire off flares) so I can’t assign anything to them in the map. Now I know I am probably missing the obvious but is there a keymap out there that has every action a key already assigned to it so I can use them in my map… ?

STUTTERS IN BALKAN CAMPAIGN
Hi there
Title says it all really. I can run all the Korean campaigns great, no stutters and no fps problems that I notice. I have everything maxed and am running it in 1680x1050. Have just installed the latest Balkan campaign (1.1.5) and on the same settings I am getting the occasional micro pause which can kinda kill the immersion. When I get the pauses I notice the h/d access light comes on. Now I appreciate that there might be more going on in this campaign plus the gfx might be more demanding so I have no worries about turning stuff down if that is what is needed. I know if it is a ram issue, either video or sys ram in the past with other s/ware lowering the resolution seemed to be the easiest way to fix the problem and when I tried it it did seem to help a little but I don’t want to have to go down to something like 1024x768 Also I read that other people suffer from stutters that aren’t weak hardware related but more to do with driver issues, any ideas to try anyone
My sys specs are E8300 quad core @2.5gh, 6gb DDR2, GTX 650TI 1gb, Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit, and my vid drivers are 337.88.
Ty in advance

RE: Toms Korea 2014
Hi all,
Great work TomCatz. At the risk of sounding a killjoy I am finding using these tiles frustrating as lots of things seem out of place. Also and I know it is a matter of personal choice I do find the tiles a little “busy” for my tastes. Basically an immersion killer for me in the stock install are the colours all seem so washed out and look false so I was wondering if there is anything out there which would better suit me. Some of Toms earlier work seems promising but all the links are dead. Can anyone point me in the right direction here ?
thx in advance
