159th Guards Aviation Regiment

Nice screens mids; you used to be able to adjust the quality of them in the files somewhere, it used to save them at IIRC around 90% of the settings you use, but you were able to make this higher if desired.

As for flying in older stuff or Stria; we could always do that depending on who is around, and yeah there's NP with people flying newer stuff unless it's PvP really.

Hope they fix the 'stuck' Mk20 issue, I'd dropped those but the ghost of them wouldn't disappear from their stations...

After a fly with mids and Mako last night, I happened across a vid (can't remember who's, but he seems to know his stuff) demonstrating some scenic control changes in DCS since 2.7.

Thought I'd tinker a bit with SSLR and SSAO (in DCS edit area) and others if it seemed viable to improve quality or FR. Started with the 2 above, and immediately, the game crashed every time I went into a mission.

As such, I turned them both off, yet still the one mission (my small test mission) I'd used to test this stuff, continued to crash on start-up. Others missions not started when the 2 were switched on were fine, so I deleted my test mission, and I've not seen any other issue as yet. Thus, be warned if you activate the 2 above you may end up corrupting something. I don't know if was 'permanent' damage, but even restating the game didn't stop the crashes. As stated, all other missions appear fine that weren't used when SSLR and SSAO were tried.

Gonna pop over to ED's forums and see if anyone else has seen this.

2.7 OB update out -not managed to DL it as yet though.

Beautiful screens mate. BTW, take the time to note my demonstration of how to land at the right airbase! Just look for the one on fire, that's my tip...

The great cloud sim.  .... If I can run 7 in 8.1 compatibility mode ... i might get to see them.

Let's hope you can! It actually does make more of a difference than just clouds though, the ambiance feels different, the light does seem to work 'better' now than before.
