    The game runs fine without DXVK but you had written a suggestion about using it so I tried it out. The game obviously does not like it so I went back to playing without it.

     

    I have zero problems running DCS or other high end games on max settings so its certainly not my PC causing the crash. At any rate I have gone back to playing without it so no problems. Whats weird is before the last few driver updates by nvidia, it used to show the 2070 in Strike fighters, but something has changed since and it shows the built in crap intel card instead....just weird. Regardless I did select the 2070 in graphics profile an the game runs fine.

     

    Thanks for suggestions. As far as paying for access, it was late last nigh when I wrote this and that was quite a long time ago that CA offered it for download with a membership,  just did not remember the details.

    Gimmie a week or so, I am going to buy this and the DLC to help the project,

     

    I guess what sucks is one sale really does not go very far, nor does it pay someones wage for even a month. Thats what sucks these days. People throw millions of dollars away on Corporate publisher controlled gaming that has really become a sea of garbage and just gets worse every year.  There is no standard anymore. And the sheep out there keep wasting money on garbage games they may play a week or less because of rampant ADHD (so many games coming out weekly that they cant even focus and complete one without losing interest) and yet they bitch on steam and other forums constantly, admitting they are disgusted with the state of gaming. I wish a lot of hat money would go to more indie developers  (like WOFF and others)and other small teams of game developers who really embrace the old school approach of being gamers themselves and developing something they play and love as well.

    Even my son complains about all the garbage "games in name only". Even  being generation Z , he embraces indie games or classic titles like I do because of how bad the gaming market is these days Its just become a sea of garbage or developers who scam their consumers by abandoning games on purpose then repeating the crime. I have seen so much of that in the last 5 years because of zero enforcement. I am just so disgusted with the gaming market. I know many others who feel the same way.

     

    Anyway keep up the good work. I hope the projects never die due to lack of funds.

    One thing I wish this sim had but its probably not possible due to the old code limitations is that "physics" feeling of flight" and less of the sliding feel which I think was leftover from the MSCFS  coding .

    I also always find myself having to constantly apply a lot of rudder input just to stay on target and hit planes because of how the flight model works.

    This game beats every other WW1 out there, even current tech ones in terms of the campaign. Length of war, realism, amount of flyables and just about everything. But it could really use a flight model upgrade. That said, it does not stop me from liking the sim an playing it.

    Chimay Blue for me!... love those Trapist Monks  :clapping:

    I used to drink that when I could find it on the west coast but its hard to find. Best brew I ever had, strong and smooth. But then I decided a few years ago that I wanted to stay in a size 5 and so I cut beer out. I do still like blended margaritas, though. LOL

    The game is in bad need of more flyables. At least finishing out the important planes like the stuka,hampden and 110, and maybe even the fairey battle,defiant, 406 or 520, as well as other me109 and hurri and spitfire mk's. I know it takes work and time but it is one reason I have not gotten off the fence.

    I have been saying for years the cold war never ended and that the red scourge was still out there. We are witnessing "Red Dawn 1985" real life. Its ironic that those who taught the germans a lesson in 42 are now learning that lesson themselves and that's as far as I will go without getting political. Has the clock ever been this close to midnight (Iron maiden song rings in my head) Seems it hasn't been updated since this all started but it was already short before all this. (shakes head)

    It is insane, criminal, and very sad. Bless those behind the lines and those poor people and furry family members in the crossfire.

    Soviet doctrines always been that single units cant act alone, often platoons of tanks have to fire on same targets, same with aircraft. Would explain why Ukraine has an advantage, its always been a downfall of Russian tactics.
