Now this is just fantastic news, I have quiet a few Iris addons for FSX and they really are top notch, DCS world is fast becoming the flight sim platform to watch, with all this third party involvement there's almost no limit to what they could do, njow all they need is a third party to start making new maps and I'll be the happiest man in the world.

Now REALLY is one the best times ever to be involved in flight sims, exciting times ahead for all of us :)

Lomac -- lock on modern combat:
Lomac was a blast for a jet sim, except that it too suffered from very poor programming.

Would be nice if it was updated with new textures, engine, and programmed efficiently.

You mean, like Flaming Cliffs 2?

;)

Or the mentioned DCS ( digital combat simulator ) :P

FLAMING CLIFFS 2 vs LOCKON
 

ParaB,
I was not aware of Flaming Cliffs 2. Have you seen any comparisons particularly FPS between theFC2 and the original LOMAC?

My interest is piqued. We loved LOMAC but it really needed updating and improved FPS.

No idea. But I never had any kind of performance problems with either FC1 or 2. Also keep in mind that today's PCs offer vastly more performance than the systems we used in 2003 when LOMAC was released.

nvm

Some action shots of DCS P-51D. If Iris stuff is like this it will be awesome.

Played mustang over at a friends house (I'm a victim of the US economic down turn, so still plugging away with a PC optimized for Il-2 1946 and saving for the new PC) he got. He doesn't like it that much nor doesn't like the ground movers / 'shark either.

He's more into jet fighters and wants the MiG . . . However he is a gamer but has patience to master the jet sims . . .

But I liked it. Slightly different feel for Il-2 1946 and Clod, but its nice. Did more research and found a whole new world of forums regarding the DCS world and more sites for that . . . wow, and you guys are right about DCS world competing with Clod.

I made a statement too early . . .

If they get nice 3rd party and a decent Axis counterpart with maps n campaigns, could be some level of awesome . . .

However another interesting scenario DCS presents is to see how the P-51 holds up vs the black shark and the A-10.
