ok...I must have downloaded and installed DCS and not DCS openbeta...why and how not sure... so installing openbeta as im typing...and will test

I just ran the updater program and it shows that dcs is up to date in list of maps The Channel doesn't even show

hello all. so as the title says, when I open up multiplayer I can see server lists but don't see any WW2 servers..The Fallen server that I use to fly on is not to be found . On their discord it shows active and one youtube channel is uploading footage from missions. I can see all maps except the Channel map. even when I try typing in the server name for example Fallen nothing comes up. I did a full dcs repair thanks Glenn.

hey thanks. ok I'll try it ...I'll put the quest back to 72hz and see how it runs....most of my settings are medium....grass off and such.... tried watching youtube vids on settings with similar pc specs....

Hey thanks for info. Hyperthreading is enabled in bios

hey all during vr flight I noticed the fps is different in cockpit vs outside view. I get 45fps inside the cockpit of any aircraft then when I switch to exterior view it jumps to 90fps. shouldn't the exterior view be harder on the fps? also I have tested the MT and don't notice any gain...in fact it is a bit worse.... my system is i9 12900k gtx 3070 64 ddr5 win 11 just upgraded from rysen 5 5600x and don't really notice much of an improvement. any thoughts. thanks

after reading post on same topic. it may be a server map issue as buddy was able to repair on Normandy map and this one we on was channel map

hey all we had this problem as I already posted it however..... buddy and I tried a new server in normandy map and after I left he tried a repair and it actually worked as it should.....previous we were on a channel map server with no repair available as it would repair the plane then upon lower it broke landing gear as your pic above shows. could this be a dcs map bug? thanks

hello all. well I had posted this in non P47 area and thought I'd post it here . upon landing after either getting a few holes in plane and or poor landing and damaging the plane .. pilot error lol I and others would request repair. the plane would life as it should and get repaired. then upon being lowered the gear would get damaged. this would happen 2 or 3 times in a row then we would have to select new slot and new plane. any thoughts thanks Glenn.

hello all. couple of us was on a WW2 server and flying our P47 and P51. we ended up taking some damage and upon landing requested a repair. everything went ok till the plane was lowered and the landing gear failed. we did try more then once and had to get new planes . I posted this on the discord of the server and was told this is a dcs bug and to contact dcs .... so here I am . thanks Glenn.

Hello all well like it says when I am in my f 18 and depress the undesignate S or keybinding most of the times it will not unlock the target. I have been testing my system in vr as I had to do a reinstall to see if fixes things and still if I lock a target and it turns out to be a friendly I can not unlock it when depressing the undesignate. I must be doing something wrong yes? thanks Glenn.

hi I have the same problem in VR. I tried to google this to see if some how we can adjust the seat to lower ourselves but could not find. the only way to see the sight is for me to lean down in my seat (slouch ) is there a fix for this? Glenn.

ok i think I got it. thank you very much for explaining I thought I was loosing my mind for some reason just couldn't wrap my brain around it . thanks again for the help. Glenn.

hey. so what your says is that they have to be moving? sorry it just doesn't make sense to me for some reason. why is it that I can see other targets moving and stationary but this unit is not visible on radar. I must be missing something it's the Gopher unit . as in my test flight it was not visible on radar nor via TOO mode on HARM but as I flew over it, it fired and shot me down so it is a working unit. if someone gets a chance try it . place one down and see if you can locate it via either HARM TOO mode or GMT radar. thanks for helping Glenn.

ok so I tested out a fast flight and placed 2 Gophers down and started out 150nm from target . Had HARM and FLIR and Maverick . flew towards target with Harm in TOO mode to see if anything would be picked up and as I got within 40nm nothing , even the GMT radar didn't pick them up flew over and was shot down. lol saved track but when I choose file to upload it says file too large so no track uploaded

ok i will. but this is wierd correct, I should see all ground units via gmt radar. I'll go into the game shortly and try and save it and show it.

hello all. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or just missing something , but when I'm in the f 18 and go to Air to Ground mode I switch radar to gmt mode and see ground targets. The wierd thing is the mobile sam units don't show at all. I did a random generated mission and looked at the map during mission editor to see the types of targets and when in the flight all the ground targets show up on radar but the 6 mobile sam units . sorry not sure what they are called. but when I'm looking for them they fire and shoot me down lol . I can see them on the ground as I have lables marking on to show the symble only so they are active , as I fly towards one radar nor HARM locates them. I try to carry a HARM and still does not show the sam units. I save the mission as I'm using it to practice with radar and flir hopefully I have explained this ok. thanks for the help Glenn.

hello I have been getting some freezing in vr using quest 2 link cable , tech from quest told me it may be my cable as I need to get 5gig min from test . I am getting 2.8gig test using Alxum Quest Link Cable and a adapter usbC to usb that also has max 5gig transfer but only getting 2.8gig. what cables are you guys using and what is your speed test results for oculus quest 2 thanks for the help Glenn

hey guys. thanks for all the help today I did the run up thing and let the plane idle for a few minutes then put at 9000rpm to warm up further . I finally got the p47 off the ground just like the ai , well kinda . lol finally got to do the 3rd mission in wolfpack and limped home after eating some flak . too bad I really suck at landings...lol the glitching I'm getting in vr may be caused by the latest update by Oculus. as I started the mission and the flickering started right away and I exited and restarted and was able to do the mission with no flickering . to bad I crashed while trying to land.lol anyways will keep at it and see how it goes again thanks for all the help. Glenn.

wow great info guys. tried yesterday, started up and sat for 10min on idle to let everything warm up . my temp still didn't get above 100 but was around 75 cylinder temp and tried everything . closed cowl flaps to half and actually got off the ground . now saying that I did notice the sound is different then training take off. we will call it clanging sound ish during take off it goes away once airborne after about 2min in air . could that be that it's still not warmed up long enough? how long do you sit in parking to get to warm up? do you also only start taxi after cylinder temp 100 or above? I have fsx with a2a p47 so I do have some minor experience flying these type of planes but the dcs model is so much detailed it makes me feel like I've got no clue now lol thanks for the help not sure why I get the "flashing " in vr but may be caused by new updates . I did a small editor mission with some AI and it didn't happen only when large amounts of AI I guess in the missions. I will keep an eye on it see if it continues and will figure out how to post it in tech area . for now I'll focus on getting off the ground. with your guys help. Glenn.

ohh. ok that makes sense. I do lock the pump handle after priming but maybe taxi too fast after start up. I will keep an eye on what your saying and see. with the other not sure how to upload a vr vid as my upload speed is 1mb ... yes it sucks. lol I'll have to look it up and see if any pics on google to explain what I'm seeing but find the missions get buggy about half way into it as my own plop enemy and fly I don't get the same glitches.

Hey guys. well to start off I'm using oculus quest 2 in vr and new gaming pc gtx 3070 with AMD Ryzen 5 5600X couple of questions. I try the training missions to start up and taxi and take off all is fine , but when I either do wolf pack mission or make my own I find the p47 runs rougher and doesn't fly as smooth as the training flight. not sure why I am noticing a difference but tend to blow motor on take off but not in training mission I can only get to the 2nd wolf pack mission as once I get over enemy area I start to get some sort of tearing across screen in vr. I've set all to low and still get it and it doesn't do it on self made missions aslo does it during f18 default missions from time to time. very strange. I've adjusted settings from high to as low with some things off such as grass and such and the missions are still doing it. thoughts? thanks for any input. Glenn.

ok thanks for the info. I must be looking at the auxiliary tank guage thinking it was for the external. big learning curve for me lol and getting off the short runnways in the missions is for some reason impossible now keep blowing engine now.

Hello all finally able to get the p47 off the ground and started the wolfpack missions I found that on the second mission I requested fuel and my external tank was fill ok, but as I'm in the air and switch to it the amount stays at full even when the engine cuts out after running out of fuel in external tank. I switch to regular tanks and all is fine , the level drops during flight. even when I drop the tank it still shows full on the dash normal? thanks Glenn.
