Task C is finished now, we had two flights of a new pilot, 21, I hope he will try the series again. Unfortunately no flight from Brad, I really hope he is well and only disturbed by being very busy. Only David flew all categories, even it was not really easy to fly from Grants Pass.
downloaded the app, wasn't able to get any response from it as far as benchmark number
Let ME TRY AGAIN
The last entry in the log you sent to me is from April, the problem with the tow plane. But I found a side comparing our both graphic cards.
As I wrote my card has a value in the benchmark test of 12000, where 8000 is recommended as minimum. But my card is much better than yours, so I guess you don't reach the 8000. I would try to fly with the lowest settings in graphics options. If that works, try higher settings. Slovenia3 has all the new things killing the performance, f.x. grass and buildings.
I tried a server in Slovenia and got a ping of 55 - 60. Tried then my own server via VPN (so that I connect via Germany from outside), got a ping of 60 - 65. On the screenshot I sent earlier I had a ping of 15 because I was connected locally, direct to the server, not via internet.
After I changed the VPN to Norway, connecting from Norway to my Server, I got a ping of 25, changed then to USA and got a ping of 220, so a very big difference if I connect from Europe or from America.
But connecting via Slovenia to the server in Slovenia didn't changed anything. So if you would use a VPN for to connect from Europe I don't believe it will help, because your data has to go over the Ocean. The only help would be if the task runs on a server in America.
Unfortunately I can't test an American server (f.x. TeamXC) because they don't run landscapes I have.
Tried C2 and got the same ping.
Our multiplayer flights in C2 went well so far, so I don't believe it's the ping alone. We have had the two seater flight in the SF28 on a landscape without buildings, that went well too. Now we used a landscape with buildings, that costs a lot of performance. By clicking Shift-D you get the frame rate in the upper left corner, can you check that number please?
My FPS (frames per second) is limited with vsync on (it's recommended) to 80
I logged on to a few servers today. One 1-26 task , my ping was 43 , another with an ASW15 was 135.
Thanks for your message Brad. No pressure, do like you want.
If you update, be sure your pc is strong enough. I guess (but of course I don't know) Daves is a little bit weak. I would like to see this part in Daves setup
My laptop isn't the strongest either, but works well without VR
For sure that wasn't the best day for you. I'm very sorry about that. Radio worked, but I only heard, that you were talking, couldn't understand, what you said. Loudness was good.
That's killing the fun, I suggest we do the next multi player flights in C2, that worked good all the time. For radio/communication we can try another tool next time, because teamspeak wasn't really good last time. I have GoTo Meeting, it's for video conferencing, in flight we can use only sound, so it will not use a lot of bandwith
I think the radio works.
Yes
Too many blue screen
at the desk
Thanks Brad, it goes its way and only takes the time it needs.
Said, you can't join, so we should use Condor 3 and try the improved ingame communication instead of teamspeakes. I will fly the Astir
Great start to Task C Dave, well done! Sorry to hear that you picked up a flu in Germany on your trip, Peter. Other than that, I hope you had a wonderful time and your flu doesn't last too long!
Unfortunately, I won't be able to join a multi-player flight on 17 Apr...too many things going on this month at work.
Thanks, a usual influenza, importet from Germany, feeling better already now.
Btw: what about multiplayer on 24 of April, 18:30 UTC (summertime in Europe now)?
Great OneDesign flight, David, well done!
Task C is started, because I will be soon out of office. Task B will run until I'm back, maybe 8th of April.
OneDesign got the same flight plan like in task B, so it can be flown on the server VintageSeries24_OneDesign. Task type is changed in task C to "Out and return".
All other planes got a mountain task "2 turn points" in CascadiaS, start airport is Grants Pass.
If the servers go down I can't do anything, so it's recommended to download / safe the flight plans as soon as possible.
Task B runs on VintageSeries24, task C on VintageSeries24_Special, both C2 and C3.
Good luck all!
