I have a 14900 also here. Can you get me your dcs.log please?

Never trust a YouTuber that has no idea about PCs. Do not disable E cores and don't use lasso. DCS uses E cores for less important tasks. If you disable them, DCS uses more valuable cores for the same tasks. That's a downside.

Can't get it to work either. I can not tell yet, what it is, but I can confirm, the a_set_carrier_illumination_mode() does nothing when being run per script on the dedicated server. No error also, but no effect on the client. Looks like as if it is a desync, but if you use a trigger like the OP stated, it works.

Your DCS isn't crashing. That is most likely Windows closing your process because of unresponsiveness. I would remove ALL your mods, run a slow repair with check extra files to be sure and try again. This is most likely cause by either mods or driver issues. If your Windows still closes your DCS, run a Windows tool named "dxdiag", press save everything at the bottom and provide the dxdiag.txt

Yeah, it looks like that's a (weird) error code inside of DCS. Was misleading, that's why I looked at Onedrive first.

Do you guys use OneDrive by chance, for instance to store your user profile (and with that your saved games folder)? The error code is a OneDrive error which looks like whenever you try to join, there's an error retrieving data from onedrive.

It is an internal file that you do not have in your installation but that goes into Saved Games. At least that was the case. When MT was new, one could fine-tune stuff in there, but that was for the developers, not for the general public. Now, MT is much more advanced and stable than it was in the beginning.

I don't know where that chap got that from. I would not recommend tampering with mt.lua. It is an internal file, which is subject to change and not meant to be set by users unless advised differently by support. I can not even tell if it is a thing at all anymore. Windows seems to agressively enter eco mode on AMD for whatever reason. You can try and launch your DCS.exe with --disable-features=UseEcoQoSForBackgroundProcess and see if that fixes it.

He? I don't think you're understanding the change mate. I told people to NOT open up everything but to create a file which works for their solution. I provided one which opens the minimum for server owners, mission and server, which in fact is very secure and not the issue for the casual user anyway. The problem lies at a different place. But if you know it better, I'm all ears how you would go with the scripts that use net.dostring_in() now.

Just put it in Saved Games, that should do it.

You don't need to fix anything in your scripts. People that use it just need to amend their autoexec.cfg like people need to amend MissionScripting.lua since ages already. As said I have provided one in here, costs you 2 mins to share it.

Would need to see the script to tell. Would wonder why any slot blocker needs that. Mine does not. Look a bit up, I posted a sample that should work for 99% of all cases. Goes into Saves Games\DCS\Config

This is what the closed beta is. If it would not be easily accessible and servers would not show up, who should run that and who should play on it?

I am using exactly that in my bot, which is running on some 550 servers these days. And there is no issue at all in doing it, people just need to add the 2 lines. If your server is either using my bot or running on one of the big hosters like Fox3 or MasterArm, you are good already also. So it will affect self-hosted servers, yes, but again, just add 2 small lines and you are happy.autoexec.cfg There would be the need to do it at 2 places, because you need to either do it in the GUI for clients or in the WebGUI for servers. And yes, that is an option. We do not have this option for anything in MissionScripting.lua also since ever (which does not make it better, but just as a reference). The majority of people will just not need it at all.

No issues with MIST and Moose AFAIK. I don't know the EW script but as long as it's not passing information between Hooks and the mission, then it will not be affected. LotAtc is, DSMC, DATIS and from the looks of it DML. I'm still in contact with the Tacview guys about it, can't tell there yet.
