  1. We haven't really made any major changes to our slotblocker in over a year.
  2. By track files you mean the local replays that are saved in your dcs folder? If so, we aren't (and can't afaik) do anything to stop you from getting those. So if they are not populating then I am not sure why?
  3. While some pilots look at MFDs when they fly, they have to use their eyes (not screens) when they spot in real life. We use screens in DCS to spot.
  4. I would just like to share not my perspective but the general vibe that I have seen from the multiplayer side. While there is only a dozen or so pages on this thread, there are thousands of interactions per day on discord which is not really captured here. In general, the feedback, from what I have seen, on the spotting changes has been overwhelmingly positive. The few people who seem to be opposed to the new spotting are people using a nascent technology (VR). As this is the first version of this and the few negative response seem to be centered with some VR people, it looks like we are moving in the right direction. Once this is solved for VR, then it should be in a good spot for everyone, including the few players on VR. What we had previous was simply unacceptable for spotting for a sim in 2023. What we had before was the worst spotting system out of any sim on the market. This is a step in the right direction and it's the first step to fix it.
  5. They are coming back in the next patch. We are going to be making them based on player credits to call in. So they will be more dynamic and not based on a clock
  6. Celebrate Core Changes Nice to see this in the patch notes
  7. It appears that if there are enough EWRs in a mission that it will not allow for RWRs to prioritize and a MiG-21 R-3R launch will be masked and not give any sort of launch warning.
  8. The other theory is that maybe EWRs are somehow flooding RWRs and not letting new things pop up. Which can be tested. But right now it is not easily or reliably reproducible. RWR deadzones and/or general multiplayer desync could be just the issue. Curious if this will happen with other planes. If people do have it happen in a flight they should post their logs as that will help.
  9. We tested this with single core vs multicore, locally hosted vs dedicated server and cold start vs hot starts and found that launch warnings do occur. We suspect this is related to RWR deadzones on the F-5. Other should test to validate.
  10. DCS is a "free-to-play digital battlefield game." according to the DCS page on Steam. One of the two free to play planes is not even full fidelity. This mix of fidelity is already part of the game. I hope ED decides to bake MAC into the current game and not fragment the playerbase between two games.
