The mods we have on the server are for some of the aircraft me thinks - but I am not sure at all there, whether we could do without. I will start the cleanup - uninstall and shift. First saving all missions and settings to re-use later, possibly... Then reinstall. Add Maps, and settings to run server and web interface. And missions. Starting ... now...

@FoolTrottel @B16Enk Since the last patch we seem to be having some issues with the performance of the DCS server. We are seeing a noticeable drop in frames @fruitbat always has his frame counter on and has noticed the difference as well as other reporting issues. I have run a repair on the server which does not seem to have made any differences. I have removed all mods and scaled back some of my DML modules, problem still seems to be there. I sent @wingflyr the current Persian Gulf map mission we most often use on the server and he hosted it on his box and we connected and found no issues with the frames, thus ruling out the mission? It has been suggested we perhaps do a clean install of DCS (especially as the versions of open beta and stable have now merged so only one is required? @B16Enk Have you completed the changes you talked about combining servers only recently, could this be a cause of the performance drop? I was thinking of doing a version without the Phantom to see if that is the issue but the same mission with them in worked fine on @wingflyr server? Friar.

I think we could leave mods off the server? They get added to the mission files and users must have them installed anyway.

All done and running ..... mostly. It doesn't like some old USB devices, changing ports helped with the head tracking camera. And then the same ..change ports again and working again. Plus my X52 is acting up too... The cooling mods help, it runs .5 deg cooler with the case closed up. Air filter box below blends right in. I bought a display panel for inside the case(bottom left) to display temps etc but I'm having some trouble figuring out the display program. Final parts list. Hmm. The video card is listed here much more than the $879 that I paid for it only a few weeks ago.

Almost there.... The GPU support they sent with the (4070Ti) card is a bit of a joke. I bought something off Amazon, installed it. Didn't like it. Modified it ... still not very good. I had some 2mm aluminum sheet so I made something solid. Final fit before paint.
