Thanks, I appreciate it. To illustrate, here you see I have a mission called 'Caucasus Baseline II': I tend to make a master layout for each region, and then build new missions on top of it, that way I don't have to re-create my Carrier Strike Group each time, re-create AWACS & Tankers, populate bases, etc. I found a file with a bunch of Cacausus Static Templates, but like a great many other files, it required: https://virpil.com/en/news/58-vpc-airfield-equipment-dlya-dcs-world So I installed it. I then added one of the base templates, saved it, but now: Okay, I just realized something while typing all of this out .... Caucasus Baseline II has a filesize of 0 ... there's nothing in it. Apparently, trying to save it simply nuked the whole thing. I don't know why that would be, but that's why I can't see it. Thanks!

Hi, So, I load a mission that I created, then I add a static template (that uses some objects in VPC Airfield Equipment), then, when I come back to load the mission, it doesn't show in the ME file browser. It DOES show in Windows File Explorer, though. Basically, I can never load the mission ever again. I'll screenshot what I'm talking about when I get home.

I loaded templates from the VPC Airfield Equipment Mod, but when I create a mission, load one of the templates, and save ... the Mission editor cannot use any missions with any of that mod's objects. Any ideas? PS. Historical filter is not on

That appears to be the altitude to which DCS models the atmosphere. I use the WeatherMark script to get the data. All altitudes above that are exactly -459F (with zero wind and pressure obviously). 265,821' is -105F BTW, on a 40F Syrian day in January Over 200K feet is pretty damn impressive! I sometimes use DCS to simulate weather, without even any combat stuff going on. It seems pretty realistic.

Alright, look, enough beating around the bush, why don't you just tell us how you feel about FC3 instead of making us try to read between the lines? Geez, some people

Dang it, people always call me when I'm in the middle of something ... anyway, what do you need?

I know what you're saying, I'm just surprised that the Eagle CAN yaw it's nose left and right 10 degrees+ at Mach 2. At least it can in the flight model, which I suppose is possible due to the lack of damage. From the page above, the ARI is disconnected at Mach 1, so again, this is what makes it possible to even pull off in the first place. I'm just surprised the rudders will go out that far at all with 1,000knot wind rushing by them. even without damage, it would take some serious mechanical force. That's the thing, something does happen ... the nose actually yaws in the direction of the rudder press. That's what surprises me. It yaws like an F18 would yaw at 250 knots. More actually. They modeled that to happen, but it looks like they simply omitted the airspeed calculation, and they have it yaw to a similar degree irrespective of speed. Unless I'm missing something, which is possible.

thanks guys

Agreed. I'm glad this technology is available during my lifetime. It helps satisfy, at least to some extent, lifelong dreams for some of us. I tell my kids that the word amazing is ridiculously overused. "My lunch was amazing" ... no it wasn't, you ate a bagel, I don't care how well that bagel was made, it did not come anywhere close to "amazing" you. Since everyone says it for every little thing, I've really grown to hate the word. Yet, grabbing the third wire at sunset after flying a decent ICLS approach while the LSO is screaming "power!", capping off a flight that began with the yellowshirts accurately guiding me onto the cat shuttle ... amazing is the only appropriate word for it. The other day I was flying over the Black Sea, the sun was settings, and it was just breathtaking. I called the whole family over to see it, and it was all "ooohs" and "aaaahs". I've only been using it for about 15 months, and it still amazes me every day. DCS scratches a mental itch that for the vast majority of my life went un-scratched. At least it wasn't scratched this well. I think I've gotten more enjoyment out of DCS than any other single piece of software. The complexity is mind-bending, and there are going to be hiccups with simulations of this level of detail, but personally I could not be more impressed with what ED has done. I'd consider it a masterpiece. Especially when talking about mods like Supercarrier, F/A-18, A-10 and Ka-50. DCS is in an elite and rare class of applications that are potentially life-altering. Heck, DCS is the only reason Lua is on my resume'.

I got it back. Someone suggested that I delete the Saved Games folder, and I did so, but it didn't change anything. I did it again today, and after deleting it for the second time and re-starting DCS Beta, I was able to get in. Well, I got it back, that's what's important. The people of Beirut are going to be so happy. The Syrians no doubt terrorized them without me flying CAP over the city. Thanks for everyone's help, BTW. I really appreciate it!

Thanks Flappie ... yeah, I've tried different maps, different planes, helos, you name it. I'm flying with TrackIR this weekend, and will do a full, clean re-install this week. I didn't want to spend the weekend doing it The only other thing that's different is, since we're in a free period, I have all of the modules installed, whereas I usually have only 14 planes installed. Since I use the USS Roosevelt as my homebase, I'm also using the Beta version. Version 2.5.6.60966 Since I'm the only one, it's obviously something on my end. I'll let you know when I figure it out.

Due to the carrier, and full-fidelty of the plane, I am primarily an F/A-18 DCS driver these days, although the F15 has been my favorite plane for most of my life. and I'm looking forward to the full-fidelity Strike Eagle. I do hop in the FC3 version from time to time, and when I do, I'm always left with a question: Is the rudder modeled correctly? On a gutcheck level, it feels like it's a bug, or just hasn't been modeled completely, but what do I know, maybe it's spot on. I have Thrustmaster Pendulum Pedals (yes, I spent $500 on pedals, that's what happens when I open the tax refund check first), which means I use the pedals pretty often while flying to avoid having spent $500 simply to taxi. I know most fighter pilots don't use the rudder that often, but then again, they didn't pay for the pedals themselves, or they might. I'm using the default 45 degree curve linear calibration. At full-ish speed, Mach 2.2 or so, I can get full deflection on the rudder. The degree to which the nose yaws at high speeds is incredible, and it far exceeds the F18, which barely yaws at high speeds even with full pedal. I'll be blasting through the air in full burner, rocking the pedals back and forth and effortlessly wagging the nose like a dog's tail. It seems to move the same at high speed as it does low speed. Is this real or is it unintentional. I've actually ripped the 15 apart before by sustaining high G's, but the rudders at full deflection produce no damage at all. Does anyone have any insight into this? In general, how do you find the yaw control to be in the plane?

Same here. I have a i9-9900K @ 5Ghz, and Nvidia 2080Ti, 64GB Ram, Evo Plus 1TB + Spinner. I cap my frames at 120 since my monitors is 120Hz, and it has no problem holding that maxed out. With VR, ASW can *usually* hold it at 40FPS, and it'll jump to 80FPS > 30,000' when there's no one around. But the frames are significantly less. It was less than that before I turned off mirrors. I'd love to see this new version in VR, as soon as I can get it working. Oh, and by the way, that 120hz monitor that I can run at 120FPS ... it's 5120x1440 resolution. I have the 49" Samsung monstrosity. I don't think DCS can look any better. I still prefer VR, though. I've tried dogfighting on the monitor, and I'm way worse. The 3D perspective is huge in flight.

Thanks Snappy! I appreciate it!

No Steam. Well, I have Steam, but I don't use DCS through it. I downloaded DCS directly from ED. I launch DCS as usual, load up a mission, or join a multi-player server, start an instant action, etc. I see the briefing/mission planner, hit "Fly", then the flat hourglass thing fills in from left to right, and once it's full , it just stays there on the black screen with the full flat hourglass. In multiplayer it's slightly different, it will start to load up the roles, then the hourglass cursor appears, and it never progresses. This was very abrupt too, as I always play in VR, and it died with the last update. In the log, it always freezes at " Dispatcher: loadMission Done: Сontrol passed to the player " I usually lauch via the SkateZilla Launcher GUI, but I've tested launching it straight from the executable with no difference. Thinking it might be the culprit, I even uninstalled the oculus tray tool. I've also done a Repair and a Clean of the installation. I also use Tacview, FWIW, and I tried disabling that as well. I've gone through the Windows event logs, etc. Unfortunately, nothing has helped.

I posted my log in the previous thread, but I'm not sure if I was supposed to start a new one for a new occurrence. Anyway, VR doesn't work anymore, in any map, in any plane. The last lines of the log are always: 2021-02-06 06:46:45.716 INFO Dispatcher: precache units resources in slots 2021-02-06 06:46:45.768 INFO Lua: Lua CPU usage: metric: average mission loading: 3.0101 % 2021-02-06 06:46:45.768 INFO Dispatcher: loadMission Done: Сontrol passed to the player Any ideas?

I also cannot use VR anymore. I get to the mission editor, start the mission, it goes through the loading bar, and once it gets to 100%, stop and does nothing. I can never proceed to the mission. I'm a primarily VR player, and the only change I've made in the last week is updating DCS to 2.5.6.60966 I can play on the monitor, but not VR and whatever has happened is new. === Log opened UTC

+1 The latest release gained the Jammer the advanced dispenser programs,and advanced ground radar modes, making it really close to feature-complete.

Thanks for another free trial period! I got busy during the last one and missed out on a couple of trials, but I'm going to take full advantage of this one to pick up a couple of new rides. My goal is to own them all, but this way I can make a priority list of which order to buy them in. At this point, I own all the maps + 14 planes/helos + the planes in FC3. Out of curiosity, does anyone own the whole enchilada? Eh, might as well make a poll.

What the protocol for winning a dogfight? I just started using multiplayer a couple of days ago, but I spent probably 500 hours in SP guns-dogfighting an F-18 against F-16s and F-15s set on "Ace" so I can usually at least provide a challenge to opponents. It's been a humbling experience. I read books on ACM and practiced every move I could find, and got the point where I could have my way the AI. That said, it took me all of 10 minutes in MP to realize that even below-average humans are harder to defeat than even the best AI. It's so incredibly different. Of course, they're also more likely to cheat, and I've already had my opponent pull the plug the moment I got on his 6, but such is life. Humans are at once both awesome and shitty creatures. Anyway, I've run into this scenario several times already: 1) Get into 1v1 dogfight 2) Am fortunate enough to prevail 3) Opponent re-spawns with a new fuel load, but now I have 1,000lbs left What am I supposed to do? Re-spawn as well after the victory, or fight until I'm out, then eject? I'd land and refuel if I could, but it's hard with a guy streaming bullets at you. Oh, one more thing, I don't understand the rule "keep your canopy on, you don't want to ruin it for the screen shooters"? Forgive my ignorance, but does this mean that we should not eject? I typically eject so the logbook records an ejection instead of a death. What's the correct thing to do in MP?

Actually, it is a problem. I have to keep scrubbing my configs to get it to run, which is kind of tedious. This is what I get when I try to launch DCS from the GUI. I'm not sure why an already-present config has started making it crash. I tried making it run as Administrator, but I get the same error. Does the exception just need to be handled? See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box. ************** Exception Text ************** System.IO.IOException: File already exists. at Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileSystem.Rename(String OldPath, String NewPath) at DCSUpdaterUtility.Form_Main.PRESET() at DCSUpdaterUtility.Form_Main.LAUNCHDCSVROFF() at DCSUpdaterUtility.Form_Main.Button_LAUNCH_VR_OFF_NEW_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs mevent) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBase.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam) ************** Loaded Assemblies ************** mscorlib Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.4300.0 built by: NET48REL1LAST_C CodeBase: file:///C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/mscorlib.dll ---------------------------------------- DCS Updater Utility Assembly Version: 1.1.0.1038 Win32 Version: 10.2.2020 CodeBase: file:///C:/Bin/DCS%20Updater%20Utility/DCS%20Updater%20Utility.exe ---------------------------------------- Microsoft.VisualBasic Assembly Version: 10.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 14.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/Microsoft.VisualBasic/v4.0_10.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll ---------------------------------------- System Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.4300.0 built by: NET48REL1LAST_C CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Core Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.4300.0 built by: NET48REL1LAST_C CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Core/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Core.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Windows.Forms Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.4270.0 built by: NET48REL1LAST_C CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Windows.Forms/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Windows.Forms.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Drawing Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Drawing/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Drawing.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Configuration Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.4190.0 built by: NET48REL1LAST_B CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Configuration/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Configuration.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Xml Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Xml/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Xml.dll ---------------------------------------- System.Runtime.Remoting Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Runtime.Remoting/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Runtime.Remoting.dll ---------------------------------------- Accessibility Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/Accessibility/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/Accessibility.dll ---------------------------------------- Newtonsoft.Json Assembly Version: 12.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 12.0.3.23909 CodeBase: file:///C:/Bin/DCS%20Updater%20Utility/Newtonsoft.Json.DLL ---------------------------------------- System.Numerics Assembly Version: 4.0.0.0 Win32 Version: 4.8.3752.0 built by: NET48REL1 CodeBase: file:///C:/WINDOWS/Microsoft.Net/assembly/GAC_MSIL/System.Numerics/v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Numerics.dll ---------------------------------------- ************** JIT Debugging ************** To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this application or computer (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

I got it to run, I deleted a bunch of previously-created config directories.

I love this app. Unfortunately, it's not working for me at the moment. I did a Windows re-install, restored the Save Games directory from backup, and can not longer launch DCS with the GUI, even after deleting the GUI config directory from ~/AppData It's giving me a "file already exists" error, but I'm not sure which file it's referring to.
