NGL that Fulda gap map would be amazing for a Cold War gone hot type scenario, great job on the video man!

[@Laerei]

Nothing to say about the Phantom. April came and went blazing fast and I am sure Heatblur felt it as well. They probably feel immense pressure to get it out before summer begins so they can avoid a second delay. Meanwhile, I am more hopeful about the radar part 2 video from Heatblur, It has been 4 weeks since part 1, hehe. EDIT: One of the comments that did not age well.

[@Generic_Name_1-1]

Truly one of the comments of all time

[@pyr0duck676]

Has Orbx said anything about the difference in quality between their trailers and the actual map? I'd be fine if they said it was still a work in progress that hasn't been released yet, but I haven't heard them say anything about it.

Kola is great considering it just came into EA. I look forward to the updates and seeing this map improve. Already had hours of awesome flights on it with only some stutters when on the ground.

[@r4dio4ctiv3man9]

Very informative, as always. The Fulda Gap map sounds very promising, every non-desert map is highly welcome and Fulda Gap will most likely be the ultimate cold war map ever in DCS.

DCS needs to have streaming of terrain data on demand instead of filling whole hdd

[@patriciomassun]

taking in mind that sdd storage is cheap this days.. and not the enterelly world have super download speed... I prefer big maps and not streaming terrain data

[@CakePrincessCelestia]

@@patriciomassun True. I never really had storage issues for DCS maps, even if the drive it's installed on wasn't sufficient. And I'm literally running into this again just right now with the Kola map. I don't have it installed yet and only 130 "jigabytes" left. The trick is to use so called "junctions" to move parts of the installation (typically the map data) to another drive in a way the system and the sim still can find them. For that, open up a cmd window in E:\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\terrains - (using my folder structure, I installed my DCS to E:\DCS World Open Beta) and just move the map folders that are too much somewhere else, to let's say F:\DCS Terrains. I typically do that with the ones I don't fly a lot - a habit that I used to develop when my other drive still was a HDD. Let's say I moved Normandy over there. Now for DCS to still find it, type this into the cmd folder that you opened up in the Mods\terrain folder: mklink /j Normandy "F:\DCS Terrains\Normandy". Repeat with each folder you moved and you're looking at free space for updates and new maps again - that way you wouldn't have to move your entire installation, clone your stuff to a bigger drive or anything like that, just add another SSD and drop the stuff on that like this. As long as it's a decent SSD that is capable of hitting the 500MB/s read speeds that theoretically most SATA SSDs should be able to, it's good enough. Also, this can be done with the tool "Link Shell Extension".
