Always old start, this IS a simulator after all and not a game :D
I hear what you're saying... but slow down ;)
-
-1 IMHO not needed this is flight sim not RPG....
Totally agree, some people are getting carried away. I play this game to fly aircraft, not to walk around on a ship and look at stuff. :music_whistling:

104th Red Flag Rumble
Mig 15 vs F86

DCS Theatre: Caucasus
Battle duration: 2 hours - One life per pilot
Open slots: 60 - first come first served
Hosting server: 104th Dedicated Server
TeamSpeak Address: ts50.gameservers.com:9132

A blast from the past is the feature for our next head to head rumble event with the Mig15 facing off against the F86 over southern Russia.
Red Flag Rumble March will feature two teams of 30 going head to head in the Caucasus Terrain, each pilot only has one life so every kill counts!
Mission Overview
Blue side -F86- Sukhumi
Red side -Mig15- Sochi
An exclusively AIR TO AIR head on match up between some exciting aircraft in DCS World, this Rumble round features an old school match up.
There are NO Air to Ground objectives so each team is looking to take advantage of their assets in Air to Air combat to eliminate the opposition.
The winning side is the team with the most aircraft alive after two hours or who ever eliminates the enemy first.
Rules

Also it looked like he made on big 360 degree circle vs the paper clip pattern. Maybe because of the poor visibility?
No, its called a SHB (Sh!t Hot Break), the first guy down out of the marshal gets the option of doing this if he is good enough and conditions allow, everyone else behind him does the standard CASE I pattern arrival.
-
Great news guys!
Finally MP getting the attention it deserves, a massive step in the right direction thanks team!
-
Thanks to everyone who took part! You guys are what make these events what they are, thank you to everyone who supports them!
I especially want to thank our non native English speaking brothers and sisters who take part, don't get me wrong, I appreciate everyone that signs up regardless of where they are from, I just think its super cool that events like this bring in people from all around the world from different cultures who all share the same love of military aviation.
Onwards and upwards friends <3
The stream replay is available to watch here -

I remember seeing this before when the tanker would spool out the hose before the client selects "Ready pre contact".
If you try to connect even with the basket out and you have not clicked "Ready Pre Contact" no connection can be made with the basket.
Not sure if its the same issue tho.

Alright guys sorry to mess you around on this one, but we are going to host it in 2.5.6
We decided to stick with 2.5.5 because of the memory leak causing DCS to crash when running 2.5.6 however now we have identified the cause of the memory leak as being the aircraft carrier spawn aircraft in our missions.
So after running a stability test on the 104th server with all carriers removed we have not had any issues with 2.5.6 so we have taken the decision to host in the latest patch for this weekends event rather than rolling back to 2.5.5.
Sorry again for all the back and forward, hope to see as many of you as possible at the event.
Event will be hosted in 2.5.6
-
I just can't say how much it brakes all logic MP related, basically everything.
Massive exaggeration, its far from that bad.
-
OK we ran the same mission but without aircraft carrier and its running with no issues now.
Seems like the carrier spawned aircraft are causing the memory leak.
-
We can consistently crash any server that has more than 4 people in it simply by spawning on the carrier and launching from a CAT.
-
We are not sure mate, so far 2.5.6 is pretty horrific for MP stability, we suspect a massive memory leak associated with having clients spawning on the carrier.
We are waiting to see some test results from across the community before we go full yarr on it.
-
If you have a mission with more than 4 people in it and you spawn users on the carrier the host gets a massive memory leak and the game just freezes with no crash logs.
Can anyone else confirm this?
-
If a suitable divert is available and fuel is not an issue, it is often better to head to that divert.
Yeah that's what I was told, if you're on a single... you don't mingle!
(ok he didn't say that bit and I just made it up :D )
But happy to learn something new, especially straight from the horses mouth.
If that's the case I owe him an apologyBah don't worry about that sir, I hate everyone already :smilewink:

I am pretty sure it would not be so time consuming to post on a regular basis
ED WTF are you guys thinking... GET THIS GUY A JOB! He has all the answers!
God dammit why didn't anyone think of this yet!!!!
:doh:
-
Which server version will be used?
We are not sure yet, it depends how horrific 2.5.6 is after ED try and make their fixes to it.
Plan for 2.5.5 however.
-
One request, can restricted weapons also include Mig-21 BVR missiles since it's the only plane to have this capability?
Denied!
Those missiles dont have enough B in their BVR to be of any major game changing threat.
-
Yes it can be done and has been done.
When and where?
-
I just point my nose at the area where the target is and slew the camera 'down' rather than having to slew it around to find the targets. I find it much easier to simply align the aircraft with the target, then slew straight down to get the camera in the right place.
-
Cool story :thumbup:
-
Not really a bug report as such more of a heads up for users who are struggling with 2.5.6.
I've noticed that the sound set up in the game has totally changed in 2.5.6 and is causing issues with clients who have sound mods installed. (the folder structure for how sounds are used has been reworked and is now C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Sounds.edc)
Removing any sound mods installed will fix your issue.

- Deck crew isn't collidable? WTF? Why not?
Because not all of us are single player warriors, we fly online with and against other people from all around the world with different skill sets.
Having collidable deck crew is a horrible idea and would cause way more problems just for the sake of you being able to kill some poor deck hand cause your landings are awful ;)
It looks like you should just wait, no one is forcing you to buy it and I bet 100% that after its release you'll be one of the first people to buy it when you see how much fun others are having with it, or just stick with the free carrier if its such a concern to you.
