Captain Chuck

Well, they don't ship to Russia so I'm putting Virpil on my sanctioned list and getting a VKB STECS.

Either the website is still trash or they don't ship outside of USA. I wasted too much time on them....... I'll Virpil or VKB. Theres too much competition

Today both ED website and DCS are working fine without a VPN. So I have no idea what is going on. Russian Federation has blocked a bunch of websites without good reason in the past, like Rumble and Bitchute so maybe they were messing with DCS. Like you said, who knows. I'll leave this topic up for a few days and if all is well I'll delete it.

No problem until today but now I cannot login to the DCS Launcher without using a VPN. I also cannot access the DCS forum without a VPN. Has my location been blocked? I am located in St Petersburg Russia.

So, no discernable difference between the old A5 and the remastered F5...... though ED wants 60 US bucks from me to "upgrade"?

Update: All my problems were fixed in the last update.

Just updating: All my problems choosing a unit in Multiplayer servers disappeared after the last update.

It's not random for me. Happens every time after a reboot.

That's pretty much what happens to me when in Multiplayer and trying to choose a slot ......however, after I have restarted the PC once sometimes twice, and everything magically works the way it should, I can turn off DCS and later when I launch DCS it will be good to go too, but not so if after the PC is turned off.

Since last major update - In Multiplayer after entering server, choosing side then attempting to choose a plane slot the game crashes to desktop. No Log is found. Second and third attempts usually successful after waiting for a few minutes to 15 minutes. I have no mods Tried full repair No log for the crash is found in User/Saved Games/DCS/logs No prompt to send crash report appears either.

Bug: Game freezes and then crashes entering MP servers

Not using any modifications but Sim still crashing upon choosing Unit. Since last update.

It's too small for an average size colony of mouses to live on comfortably. It's just not enough cheese.

It crashes on me almost every time I try to choose the Unit I want to fly on the Project Overlord server. I usually have to wait 5 or 10 minutes to accept the input. If I click it again while waiting it crashes.

The stars are also wrong because they are showing in the daytime. Plus the Moon is waaaay too small....unless of course you are zoomed in to the point of ridiculousness.

Friendly fire incident a few hours ago. Noticed that most media was more interested in deflecting from why it occurred to how naughty those Houthis are. I couldn't find out what was used to shootdown the F-18. Two US Navy pilots shot down over Red Sea in apparent 'friendly fire' incident, US military says | AP News

Even after the latest update the Moon appears ridiculously small. It looked better when ED made it too big. As it is right now the Moon is so small that it is easily mistaken as an enemy plane during the confusion of a heated WWII dogfight when scanning the sky for the bandit, when fractions of a second matter.

It does this randomly to me though I am connected to internet. It's been doing it for maybe months or a year. I usually try again and it works. This time it didn't work for 45 minutes and when I went to DCS forums to ask about it the website gave me a 403 error. I thought maybe something happened to ED. An hour later everything was working as normal.

DCS launcher won't log me in tonight. 404 on this website too. Well, sometimes it can log in. At the moment it did log in and the site is back up.. Can't say what will happen later though.

Tell news users about head trackers so they don't kick themselves.

I just got done flying on a server ..........It's too small!

Thanks for starting this topic RealDCSpilot. It saves me the trouble. The moon is obviously way too small now. Anyone who looks up should be able to see this. I can't believe that anyone is arguing with you. It detracts from the sim. Devs.... just fix it ... OK?

I don't think it is political. I think it simply pure discrimination. What's wrong with the other colors? Why can't we have a Chartreuse and Magenta?...hmmmmmm? But in all seriousness I did prefer the old Multiplayer interface. Please note: This comment was written under the duress of boredom while waiting for a DCS Update to download before I could fly. So any insults or discrimination to colors not mentioned was unintentional.

Although there are some things about the new layout that are OK the old layout was better. I don't see where the old one needed 'fixing'!

Yup same here. I get that nag screen everytime I fire up DCS.
