Can't wait to have this spread over 2 monitors with those shiny MFDs

.DCS: A-10C Warthog (first screens!)
- Thread starter Nate--IRL--
- Start date
The release date is 2010, late 2010. Sorry, that's the only info available. I've not used the "Power Glove" myself, but this guy seems to have it set up perfectly.

seen the latest video - OMG - I wasn't that impressed with some of the statics - but in motion - wow - can't wait - video does have some post-processing/added effects - but you cantell the actual game looks amazing none the less

Matt Wagner is leading the project? Now that's very good news! Matt Wagner is a legend in the flight sim community. I learned of his name back in to those days when I was playing F/A-18. He contributed a lot to that wonderful sim.
Actually I have met him on the SimHQ forum once, he answered my questions, I was very happy of course.
About DCS A-10C Warthog, I'm worrying that if my machine can take up the challenge because currently, I can only run DCS at medium setting which naturally one feels no full satisfaction. Would A-10C Warthog be a resource hog? Anyway, hope it turns out to be an easier one for my system.
When is it due out?

Really liking the small details...like the grass growing on runway edges and the tarmac detail textures as well....a glimpse of FS11 perhaps hee hee.
I've downloaded it but had troubles with the install due to my poorly arranged Hdds and the resulting lack of space!
Working on it now and will report back.
Had a "quickstart" mission though on 64bit (I'm trying to get 32bit working so I can use TrackIR) which played very badly - I think it was some kind of "arcade" mode, which if I remember was equally bad on Black Shark!

Why can't TrackIR work in 64bit?
Naturalpoint have to update their software to cope with 64bit applications. I think they were caught off guard by ED's Open Beta.
It not much of an issue anyway as you can use the 32bit Warthog until it's addressed.

From what I've seen of the Interactive training missions, they will hold your hand well enough but you will still need to be patient and refer to the manual from time to time.
BTW:- Here is the nearly complete DCS:- Warthog Beta Flight Manual for you to peruse
HOTAS Warthog (If you have a spare £350)
Back down to earth now.....
The Saitek X-52 is a decent Mid range HOTAS.
I have a set of these Saitek Rudder Pedals and can recommend them.
