Fear-Factor

Finished out 5h session and 4h long ive hadnt any visual bugs. In the area of Gelendzik airfield ive killed lot of units with Ah64, Ka50, F14 and Mi24. Nothing special. Even using F14 ive dropped GBU12 and no visual bugs were visible. The strange thing is that with Mi24 ive killed i think an asset truck which was standing around. Ive used the main machine gun and this truck exploded. This created then the visual bug. The iso container is caused by a shot down heli. But is far away from the "bug point".

I know it sounds strange but sometimes it can work In my case its maybe just a lucky day so i dont mark this as an solution. During next session i will still look out if this will appear or not.

Finished my 4h session and no visual bug were visible for me. Ive flown Ka50-III, Ah64, F14 and Mi24. Another collegue had less luck and he had the bug again.

hm, hard to say if this is the problem. Someone wrote on ED discord that deleting/removing track files seems to solve the problem. Strange but i removed all my trackfiles and tomorrow we have our mp session so i will see if this problem will appear or not.

This is really weird. In our last session (5-6 hours) with several reconnects to mp server (due to save the trackfiles) ive hadnt any issues. We call it meanwhile "saturn ring bug". Other players experienced it. This is spontanous and seems like not really replicable. After restarting DCS and joining same running mp session seems to "clear" the bug.

Ive wrote already in ED discord but here it is also interesting. Maybe its an clue. I saw today something that may be a clue... a mate dropped from a Mi8 few bombs FAB-250-M62 and then we moved over to another place. When i came back to the place near our farp so this bug appeared suddenly. And it was near the bomb drop place. This bug is exactly on the place where the bombs were dropped. Then i rewatched my track file and this bug was not visible. So in my opinion the replay tracks are useless. Its something temporal during a session. After DCS restart the bug is not present on same place even when the mp server session is still active. After a server rejoin everything is fine until it can happen in another place....

@ED Any progress in this topic? It cant be really so hard to place an pilot model in this module....

F-5E remastered got new pilot....ka50 users still waiting..... -_-

Where is the next promised part? As far as i remember there was a info like "approx every 3 months we will release next part of the map"...... Sure, sure....

No one knows that exactly. RTX30xx are also in the pool. If this is a driver problem? Dont know. Ask Nvidia.

Whole year DCS worked without this bugs. My system runs at stock settings (no overclocking) and ive didnt changed anything so why i need to mess around now with my system? Its not necessary coz its runs flawlessly. Everything is at latest drivers and correct settings. This is for sure not a problem on my side. No temp issues or other unusual problems here. I am not alone with this graphical bugs and as we can see lot of people starting to experience same bugs at same time. So i dont believe that lot of DCS players started to getting temp issues or other hardware related problems at same time......

Today it was something new Syria map

^^ Dont know but those artifacts in DCS started to appear after latest 1-2 updates of DCS. In other games i didnt noticed any problems or perfomance drops. Whatever. My collegues became those artifacts first and in my case it started 2 weeks later. Before it was flawless and i dont use any mods or thigs which could affect DCS. When this artifacts going to appear so i restart DCS and then its ok for a while. But as we can see i am not alone with this problem. So i dont see a reason to downgrade my drivers attm.

In my case you can see all specs in my signature. Bios, drivers all at latest actual version. No overheating or similar problems.

Another session in VR.... Novorossiysk area on Caucasus

Attm i dont have a track file. I fly in a group on MP server and the sortie time is mostly several hours so i guess the data size is huge... As ive said.... it happens in very slow flight or in hover sate.

No hard conditions, normal wind, day, Caucasus map for example, 8 laser HF, 2x hydra pods, 3/4 fuel

Is there a reason why the Apache sometimes fell down like a stone especially on hover or very low speed. Ive noticed this meanwhile several times but in my opinion in those situations the heli/engine is not in a heavy torqrue or load to behave like that. At some point the heli loose the flight ability (no vrs) and in some situation i can barely catch that aircraft. I could understand such behavior when i slow down from higher speed. Otherwise i dont see a reason why the Apache has such strange ability to fall down. Its trimmed well and i dont do any abruptly moves which could cause lot of load on the engine. Its just hovering. I can hold the heli for example several minutes with the same steering inputs and then at one point the engine overtorque with no reason and 8 times form 10 i just crash. This is annoying. The Hind for example can handle way bigger stress situations or even very hard manouvers on purpose.

I cant help attm with a track but in my case i dont use any mods or graphical tweaks. Flown yesterday 4-5h with a collegue in a Apache and then the bug appeared first time for me (see screenshot above). My collegues became this problems 1-2 days ago. So this is not a hardware related problem. It looks like it doesnt matter which map it is. Caucasus, Persian Gulf and Syria has this problem so far. Also different jets/helis were used so its hard to keep the search radius small....
