Some might already know this, but for those who don't: If you have a system with enough RAM and CPU cores, you can increase performance on AI heavy missions notably by running a local DCS Server and playing in multiplayer mode. This will offload AI stuff to another core on the server process, giving you client process more time to deal with graphics and IO.

Very bad VR performance in multiplayer select server menu
Buzzer1977 replied to Buzzer1977's topic in VR Bugs

Besides the bad overall VR performance in game, i even get a annoying lag when simply moving the head in the multiplayer select server menu. The problem barely happens in the hanger, but it get's worse in the multiplayer select menu especially when i hit the sort button and the more servers are in the list. In the screen recording you only can see a hang for about a second or so, inside the glasses it's an awful studder and even flashing back to the SteamVR 'star space' background some times. I usually don't have NVidia overlays enabled, only to record the problem. To reproduce, go into the Multiplayer select server and turn your head for more then 60° each side.

Here too ... What i discovered was that you can use Alt-Tab to switch to the dialog and then use the tab key to switch to the okay and send buttons and activate them by using the return key.

reported Radio COMM I/II buttons, only COMM II works
Buzzer1977 replied to Buzzer1977's topic in Bugs and Problems
Seems this happens when easy comm is active -
need track replay Radio Issue (no voice dialog)
Buzzer1977 replied to ACEL's topic in Bugs and Problems
Might be related to my problem or the same. I can only use COMM II. When i press the COMM I button on my HOTAS i always get the COMM II menu. -
Since some time COMM I doesn't work anymore. I have bound the COMM I (303 MHz) and COMM II (333 MHz) bound to different buttons on the HOTAS, but i only get the menu items from COMM II (333 MHz), even when i press the COMM I button. I know it worked in the past ( ~ half a year ago ). radiobug.trk

I have the new cable and the same problem from time to time. But not only with DCS, and not only black. I sometimes get a back or a blue screen in the G2 until i reboot my machine. But it's unpredictable to happen and new since the last Windows 11 release (21h2)

Massive changes in the core take massive efforts and massive time, but these changes don't pay the bills like new modules do. I think they know they have to fix the core with multithreading and Vulkan and i also bet they will do their best to get there.

Why just limit parallelization to some AI stuff and create another bottleneck, by touching all that data again in another thread only to pump it to the GPU, if you can handle it all in parallel and pump the data to the GPU directly from each thread?

Modern APIs like Vulkan enable developers to make use of multiple cores ... At least that's what NVidia says ... Nvidia

Well, indexing with all kind of values works. It just doesn't work to get the table size with '#'. A standalone function to get the size like this works: function tsize(Table) local count = 0 for k,v in pairs( Table ) do count = count + 1 end return count end n = tsize(table) What doesn't work is to add the function to the table type. function table.size(Table) local count = 0 for k,v in pairs( Table ) do count = count + 1 end return count end n = tab.size() The fun part is, adding functions to the string type works quite well ... function string.starts(String,Start) return string.sub(String,1,string.len(Start))==Start end foo = 'bar' if ( bar.starts('B')) then .... -- to upper and replace '-' with '_' function string.unify(String) return string.gsub(String:upper(), "-", "_") end foo = "Red_CAP-Unit-4_3" foo.unify() -- RED_CAP_UNIT_4_3

Learned it the hard way ... LUA '#' operator won't work on key,value tables. Is there a way to add a size() method to the table type ? This doesn't work ... function table.size(Table) local count = 0 for k,v in pairs( Table ) do count = count + 1 end return count end

Hi, I'm a absolute lua noob and i don't know why the table 'retval' that i'm filling with key(unit name), value (distance) pairs remains empty. I've added a counter and some debug output, so adding the unit to the table get's called, but the table remains empty. What am i doing wrong ? I'd guess its something trivial i just can't see because i'm new to lua. Any help would be appreciated Regards Buzzer function units_in_range(position, range, filter, matches ) retval = {} units = mist.getUnitsByAttribute(filter,matches,false) local count = 0 for id, unit_name in pairs(units) do local unit = Unit.getByName(unit_name) if unit ~= nil then local unit_position = unit:getPosition().p local distance = mist.utils.get3DDist(unit_position, position ) if ( distance < range ) then retval[unit_name] = distance count = count + 1 dbg("UIR: added [" .. unit_name .. "] = " .. distance .. " len: " .. #retval) end end end dbg("UIR added count: " .. count .. " of units: " .. #units ..

Hi, i'm trying to do write a little QRA script. When a enemy aircraft comes too close to a airbase i want to send: - The two closest airborne CAP capable aircraft that have AAM onboard and is not on it's way to RTB. - The closest QRA CAP group that's waiting on the tarmac for a AI_PUSH_TASK. I've got most of the stuff already done, but i'm struggling with the following 3 things: - How to find out if a unit or group is CAP capable? - How to find out if a unit has AAM? - How to find out if a unit is on it's way to RTB? With best regards Buzzer

VR DCS hung in mission, but voice chat still active.
Buzzer1977 replied to Buzzer1977's topic in VR Bugs
It wasn't too busy on the 4YA server in the early afternoon. Connection was 1GBit Ethernet to the 50MBit cable router. And i was still able to hear the ithers via voice chat -
DCS just got a hang in VR, voice chat still works as i can hear other players, but i can't do anything. It's stuck for a couple of minutes now. So i can only kill the task. dcs.log
