    I've notived now in the hornet in TWS manual mode that the radar is no longer following my TDC cursor. It only moves when I press the TDC in a new location, kind of like the SPOT mode, but in TWS. Was the behavior changed for TWS as well, or is it a bug?

      Be sure you up your target aging setting from the default 4 to at least 16. This setting is being applied incorrectly right now and if set low, will cause targets to drop. No kidding, it’s a completely different radar at 16 or higher ;).

      Older machines might struggle a little, but like everything with DCS the more they do the harder it will push your rigs. Use to fly this on a Athlon II 645 with 8 gig of ram and a old GPU got around 15-20 fps when 2.0 dropped (could never do any combat use to just fly around on a empty map for hours, flying high to help the frames), have a much better system now and can play the sim. But the next thing i will need is more RAM, 16 gig is the bare minimum these days for pretty much anything, unless i turn down all the eye candy....but what's the point of that.

      @@Mark-fo7tu I agree with you, the comments around the clouds is more like a meme or an internal joke (because its amazing how it looks) but with my fx8350 and 1060 6gb and 32gb of ram i play in vr with no problem (obviously, vr or not, always there's some stuttering, but FAR i am to run it on 4k). For that reason, i think there's no PC on Earth that can run DCS like for example, War Thunder. It's very complex. Thats why we love it. Cheers!

    There is a difference between what I see here and the DCS I am playing, let me guess, is it radar?
