Nice addition

Thanks, Tom, I now have a Helicopter in my stable. It took me a bit to get it installed correctly. Due to the instructions on the web page, but their readme squared me away.

Happy Birthday FT!

I'm on lunch and no real time to chase this, but have you looked into the wayback stuff https://web.archive.org/web/20240505021333/https://www.simhq.com/

Interesting

Yes both ways work equally well for me, as long as I keep me ball's clean and dry 😉

I'm still on 5.4.27545 No idea where that is in versions but it's probably 6+ years old. I noticed an issue when I started flying again, but found out the reflective balls on my hat were dirty. washed and all was fine. I did though order the lighted thing before I figured it out, thinking my TIR head was getting weak and not seeing the reflective balls and was hoping the lights would make up the difference. Both work fine so if if using headphones I'll use the light thing and if using external I'll wear the hat with me balls.

Your phone is connected to big brother and his wannabe's even while you sleep, same with any of your smart fart stuff, including your robot floor sweeper. Accept it, or go off the grid are your only options nowadays. And off the grid will still leave you with the onlookers from the sky.

I left the room for a spell, if I wait till the blue circle starts spinning it it too late to catch it, totally locked up by then.

Figures I just got the TS fired up last night. Discord is Fine I've had one hosted for a few years now. When I get home I can share it's info and you can just run a few test on it before troubling yourselves over making one.

I know it's a dead horse, but I still like watching the old tracks. I just figured out mine so it will run, I'm not satisfied but. I have a dual boot so on my second boot I uninstalled Nvidia GeForce Experience. I set compatibility to Windows XP and run as an Administrator -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had to adjust the DPI I found this here https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/75655-display-on-widescreen-resolutionscaling/?do=findComment&comment=1291645 MAILMAN I know this thread is a bit old, but the original poster displayed a window one step short when he asked his question. I don't use Steam so below is what I do to render the UI properly in all of my installations of IL-2 Sturmovik 1946. Right-click the desktop icon. Click on properties. Click on the compatibility tab. Click on Change high DPI settings which will bring up another small window. Check the box Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by: application. Then click okay. When you launch IL-2 1946 the UI rendering should be sized correctly for you to interact with it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now when it starts it hangs at 50% so I key up the task manager to get out of the game load screen then hit Tab and if the mouse works great if not I tab out and back in and the mouse works.

Ok, thanks, I did just textures and it gained around 20-30 fos in the cockpit that I own, but it did make the smaller font painted letters fuzzy a bit, but still legible. Running 4k 3840x2160

First dogfight in years and I played with my food lol

Ok, slipped in a back drive of an older Win 10 and 1946 will work, but not on this latest version of Win 10 hmm?

nevermind video format was wrong

The hour glass pops up at mouse curser then nothing, I don't even see it on task manager breifly

Only Textures or Both that and Terrain Textures

Ah those were the days LOL

This is the config from the 1946 HSFX install last flown with you guys with my old 970 card with this video settings, which is the same as my desktop settings. if you could peek at it and let me know if you see an issue. I don't guess you still have that checker verification tool hosted anymore do ya?

I'll have to look and my versions, I still have them on a separate drive from the OS.

Yep benn scouring there just haven't found any real independent followers of anything yet. I have notice BOS and others still see my old CHCombat stick I wired into my Microsoft FFB base. But DCS doesn't, that's frustrating. Oh and Win 10 no longer plays 1946 anymore. Not a big deal, but kills watching old tracks for fun.

Do any of you have this throttle? Any good place to find profiles for it?
