So when I looked for terrains folder, IT HAS DISAPPEARED! Perhaps when I did the full repair, it put it into the backup004 folder. Restored, so we'll see what happens Seems that even if I manually edit the serversettings.lua file, it gets overwritten so that whichever file I add gets deleted from the lua. Also, even if I manage to get a file into the list, it will not allow me to add a second file to the list

Tried your suggestions, no joy. Attached my settings lua serverSettings.lua

Did a FULL repair, tried renaming the serversettings.lua to .old so it would rebuild, still no joy. Tinkering, will post if I can get it running

This miz file was the one that was running prior to the update. I can't add ANY miz files to the list, there were several in there prior to the update. Mission list after updated server start has nothing in it, but won't let me add anything, I get "error starting server" and the list remains empty.

Had to get it off the server rig, here they are. Lots of errors, was working fine prior to the update autoupdate_log.txt dcs-20250326-151135.log

Anyone else having issues with the hotfix from today? I updated my server, the GUI sees it, but won't connect, says server error. All my missions in the server list have disappeared, and it won't let me add anything. I have the core game installed on my server rig as well as the server, when I updated I did the core game first, then run the updater from the server folder. Usually when I update the server it looks first into the core game for the files, and downloads the delta. This time it did not appear to do that. I ran a server repair (had to copy the updater repair .bat into DCS World Server folder). Said it was repaired successfully after I ran it. When I run the server it gives the correct version on the splash screen (8394). When I run the GUI, it says server detected, it seems to connect, but I get the server error message in the bottom left, and it won't let me start the server at all. I completely rebooted my server rig, the problem persists. I'll try and find the server log on the server rig and post it

The all function always seemed to work for me previously. I went in last night, discovered that individual stations are a workaround, but seeing the F1 All stations USED to work, for me anyway... Update: After much testing, turns out that if there is more than 1 GBU-10 on the LCFT, it sticks on 1511 laser code. If only 1 GBU-10 is loaded, the laser code works fine, and can be changed as necessary. GBU54s seem OK, I was able to change the code on the LCFT without issue. From this, it seems that if there is 2 GBU-10s loaded on the LCFT, it sticks. Obviously more testing needed.

Just tried to change the LGB code via the radio groundcrew menu (/, F8, F8, F1). The window comes up, the mouse up/dn symbol appears, but clicking the L or R mouse button does nothing, the code in the window seems stuck on 1511. Tried on several different bombs, GBU 10, GBU 12, none seem to work. F-15E Used to work fine

I didn't think so. I'll check it out though

Does anyone know what the export name is for the F-15E engine monitor display (lower right on the front cockpit main panel)? Does it have an assigned viewport and can it be exported to an external monitor? TIA Dizzy

Actually got it to work, was quite easy. I downloaded the GUI version, checked with a couple of my IT nerd pals, and it ended up being literally a 30-sec process. https://www.howtogeek.com/16226/complete-guide-to-symbolic-links-symlinks-on-windows-or-linux/ This is the guide I used, the link to the GUI version is in there. Apparently (though NOT evident) is that you use the straight symbolic link, NOT junction. Works like a charm, I just have to see if an update will screw it up.

Turns out it was an ED login server issue, nothing to do with me. Seems to be resolved now. Sorry if I put this in the wrong place, it SEEMED to be the right one. In terms of the mods, I disable them with OVGME prior to any update

Update: Still unable to connect to my OWN server, unable to select any coalition nor role. All I get is a random unit view. Same for many (not all) other MP servers. For my own server, even after a FULL system reboot, still no coalition nor role select capability, exact same for other MP servers. Was working fine last evening

Had a login expired message on my server, restarted. Unable to get into any server, all I get is a random airport view, then an unable to connect message. No select coalition or role screen. Log attached dcs.log

I have 2 instances of DCS on my server rig, 1 is the actual game, and the other is the dedicated server. I only use the game client on this rig to edit server missions, I don't fly on it. In order to get multiplayer server missions to run on a given terrain, the terrain has to be on the mods/terrains folder of the server install, resulting in the terrains being installed twice, once in the server install, and once in the client install (takes up a HUGE amount of un-necessary space). Is there any way to get the server to look into the main game install mods/terrains folder? I tried putting shortcuts into the dserver mods/terrains folder for each terrain I own, but that did not work, just got a blank screen and a server error. Thanks Muad' Diz

Title kind of says it all. I have my dedicated server up and running, initially no issues, folks can see/logon etc. After a while with no users, I have to reboot the server completely (close DCS Server, Restart) for it to be visible once again. For me, behind my firewall, no issues, as long as the server is up I can see it, but anyone else outside of my firewall cannot, without the reboot. Any suggestions?

Since about 2 updates ago, I am getting a myriad of false positives on my anti-virus (McAfee). From what I hear, I'm not the only one. Typically, it is a flight model dll in the aircraft /bin folder, or lately the CombinedArms.dll (flagged as an actual virus and not quarantined like the others). This particular one cannot be put on the exception list because it is still seen as a virus, even though I marked it as resolved. Apart from adding all of the individual files as exceptions as they get flagged, is there any way ED can get allow-listed for DCS? Note that some anti-virus packages do not allow folder-level exceptions, so individual files have to be added one-by-one, which of course is a PITA.

Same issue here. I thought maybe it was my anti-virus (McAfee) scanning real-time, but maybe not

So I did SORT of the same thing as Jonsky7, but edited some of the 15 lua files. If you look at my monitor setup file, at the bottom, go through that process, and you can add another name (such as F15E_Center_MFCD). I'll have to have a look at exactly which files I changed, its been a while. Update: Look in the main game/Mods/aircraft/f-15e/cockpit/bake/mfdg folder. For each MFD on both cockpits there is a lua init file. Here are mine, notice I changed the try find assigned viewport line in each... The WSO left and right outer displays already have a unique name so don't have to be changed. The files are actually lua files but I changed the file type to new so you will need to change them back to .lua files Bake_RCRI_init.new Bake_FCC_init.new Bake_FCL_init.new Bake_FCR_init.new Bake_RCLI_init.new

For those of us who have the F-15C FC3 issue (not able to launch after the update to FC2024), the fix is as follows: Look in your saved games/dcs.openbeta/Mods/Aircraft folder, and either delete, move or rename the Flaming Cliffs folder. I ended up, after repairing, deleting, reinstalling individual FC2024 aircraft, doing this (I moved the folder) and lo and behold, my F-15C was able to launch once again.

I completely uninstalled FC3 using the new launcher. Then I installed each individual aircraft, which all work except for the F-15c. Renamed the sub folders in the saved games Mods folder (I kept SRS, Tacview and LOTATC) Lo and behold, one of the mods (I suspect the flaming cliffs one) is causing the issue. @Ironhand don't ever let anyone tell you that you are nothing less than a ROCKSTAR! Your help has been awesome. Now to replace the mods that I want to keep

I had FC3 installed, it worked fine. After I upgraded to FC2024, the F-15C stopped working (clearly the log I posted confirms that, no F-15C FM). BTW, I am NOT the only one having this issue

Uninstalled, re-installed, no change. All I get is the map, and the voice overs (using Marianas Free Flight Instant action) Line 3380 F-15C FM not exist dcs.log

Just did a full slow repair. Fired up no mods, log attached. Line 3373 says it all, no FM for the F-15C I'll try uninstalling FC3 dcs.log

All tried. Repair/clean done, AV software (Macafee) files excluded (would be nice to be able to exclude the entire DCS folder, but Macafee is files only AFAIK) Line 3405 in the log says the F-15C FM does not exist, not sure where that would have gone, the F-15C.dll is in the Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F-15C\bin folder dcs.log
