I have not! I shall nuke it proper and well then!
Lowest settings mean both of those are off anyway, never got Deferred shaders to work anyway, it doesn’t like my AMD card unfortunately.

11 Gb update wow 
Is this ever going to be released for real, or should i just download the beta (I don’t usually do betas)?
They said they would release a stable version in a week. That was a few weeks ago. If you get the beta once it goes to stable RC you can revert from Beta to RC
That was before an intractable memory leak popped up.
You are right tho, its quite easy to pop back and forth between versions. Especially if you use skatezilla DCS updater thing.
Was hoping this update might include some fixes to the A-10 including the tower frequency display bug under the divert option of the CDU and some problems with the ILS system, but doesn’t look as if either is addressed in the release notes. Maybe next patch…

I was just reading the ED Forums and it apperas a LOT of what has been fixed wasn’t really put in the changelog.
A community manger suggested to browse the end-of-update log to get some bits of extra info.
That said, it could very well be that in this Beta patch that wasn’t fixed yet.
DCS changelogs are notoriously incomplete. Its always a bit of a snipechase to see what else got patched.
Looks like another Hotfix is incoming for Friday. Apparently some people are experiencing issues with the latest update. Flew some Training with the boys last night for a couple hours, didnt notice anything on my end.
Well that’s good news. Perhaps I’ll be pleasantly surprised then when I get the opportunity to fire up the sim after the patch has been applied.

Gunny, is that an ad hoc or scheduled meeting? Weds and Thurs nights are usually good for me. Need to shake off some air combat cobwebs.

Sorry mate… I don’t really remember much.
You see my memory is not what it used to be.
How was it before?
I can’t bloody remember…
New hotfix out not officially announced yet but I am downloading now
We were talking about TrackIR issues above. After moving the bicycle and chasing out the racoons it turned out that my problem was the old reflector tape on my TrackIR Track Clip. New clips arrived and I am very happy to say the view is restored to full head swing.
With the old Track Clip I could not look left. It’s hard to see, but the old reflector tape is a bit dried out and scaley. I tried to wash them off with dish soap and that’s when I could tell that they were not reflecting well. After a nice Nevada flight with the new Track Clip I realize that the old one was the source of recent frustration with the views.
The lower clip is the old one.

Not yet, haven’t had the time to that try that. Did the shader delete thing and then once more when I discovered it was also in a different folder. It’s a weird problem because FPS is 60+ but drops to 30 or 20 frames when the camera moves.
the right reflector appears to be smaller circum. than the others, which would cause issues looking left.
