  1. Fixed it. Reset router and changed IP address from 56.xxx.xxx.xxx range to another range. It works now. Gotta love dynamic ip's.
  2. I still have te same problem. BTW I can see servers in my History but still have the Cant connect to master problem.
  3. Same here, nothing in A-10c or Black shark..... Can't connect to Master. Ohh well. back to diablo3 - Demon Hunter....
  4. Found this gem while researching CAS role/operations prior to A-10C. Found footage and a link to the A-1H Skyraider. http://www.midwaysailor.com/midwayva25bomb/ "The FAC said that it whistled all the way down." Gives a new meaning to the word "splash" Red
  5. Hmmmm, I take my hat off to the folks that created TARS, it’s elegant code and a wonderful implementation of realistic comms – kudos guys really. I’ve have participated in both MP servers with and without TARS. The snap, crackle and pop, I still find is a waste of cpu cycles. I’d rather that developing effort (programming dollars) be concentrated where there is more bang for your buck – a dedicated MP server, more EDGE maps Nevada, Afghanistan, Tahiti whatever. My point being that developer dollars/effort should be spent on something that will benefit the broader community instead of catering to hardcore diehards. I ask myself would I rather a new DCS WORLD : Afghanistan SP/MP map or listening to “snap, crackle and pop” when sneaking behind a mountain? I vote for the map. Redfish
  6. Why reinvent the wheel again? People are already using TS or ventrillo just leave it at that. Using DCS World or another DCS module to integrate a tars/ts/ventrillo comms system is a waste of valuable cpu cycles on a platform that needs them desperately for fps. Just keep the ingame text/chat mode. Red
  7. There were 6 other pilots in the server and they could see it as well.
  8. Anyone else seen this? Just flying in a mission and then got hit a one second lag/micro freeze and a massive explosion of brown gets rendered on the surface below. Any thoughts on what just happened? Redfish
  9. Hey Habu, Nice mission, perhaps SLMOD integration so players can query what the most recent task is and its co-ordinates. Maybe a tanker as well. Red
  10. Try this. it might help. The videos basically use simple geometry to set up a customised ILS approach and you essentially have a straight in approach in low visibility. And they also show you how to use the CDU more efficiently. Part1 Part2 Enjoy Redfish
  11. Fixed it. Just reinstalled the P-51D module again. SP and MP work now. I can only think it was a data corruption somewhere with the installation...... Happy days are here again. Redfish
  12. Here's the youtube video of a Cold Start Vasiani instant action. What is that noise (not the SU-25 spooling up)? Redfish
  13. Hey Nate Thanks for the reminder about the inverted flight in the Mustang. I knew about the upside down fuel problems that are similar to A-10C inverted flight. Attached another track. What happens with the airborne starts when I host a MP mission and un-pause the sim. The prop stops instantly and the engine is dead. I end up snap rolling over spinning in less than 1/2 a second and at a high bank angle 90-120degrees from stable wings level flight when spawning into any airborne start airframe. The MP mission was hosted 24hrs ago for about six hours with hilarious results (I need practice in Air to Air) The engine problem was not evident and is only a problem since the new release/install. I uninstalled the old version 1.1.2.0 and did a brand new install for 1.1.2.1. After a successful installation, loaded my P-51D mission into the ME and saved using the 1.1.2.1 version. Also went to another MP server - blackbaron was hosting one just 10 minutes ago and the same thing happened. He had randoms join his server and they could all start up and fly. I couldn't and tried re-spawning in the available MP slots. Redfish server-20120505-220855.trk
  14. Hey guys I have a similar engine starting problem with my mission 6 vs 6 : red v blue air starts. When I pick an aircraft and spawn in , there is a violent anti torque to the 'stang and the prop isn't rendering as moving, cold start in the air. The engine is off and just the sound of the air as it rushes past the airframe. Attempted engine restart and doesn't restart and did a controlled descent ending up in the dirt/water.... The original beta release candidate couple of days ago was fine for any cold engine starts and any airborne starts. Mission attached and track attached and as soon as I unpause, the torque spins the plane and prop stops. Also noticed the engine instruments are strangely as if I am doing a cold start on the ground. Anyone else have the same problem? Had to take a picture of that. Not every day you are 4000ft and the instruments show a dead engine ..... :) Redfish server-20120505-203611.trk Batumi v Kobuleti.miz
  15. Purchased, downloading and seeding in Australia :)
  16. Interesting point I noticed with the changes Joyride did to the Hacienda mission. The prior missions: Darial Gorge, FOB Vetka, Gridiron & Standby CSAR all had the PDF's/JPEG maps embedded into the mission so that they were visible via 'Left ALT-B' in game. On the Hacienda one the maps are a separate PDF in the download ZIP file and NOT viewable via 'Left ALT-B' in game. Smart idea Joyride to keep the mission file size down. I went back through and re-saved the all the maps files down to 20%-30% of their original file size just using irfan view and stuffed them back into the miz file. Much faster loading time for clients.
  17. I have a sneaking suspicion that the problem was the number of airframes available at the AO. Too much workload for too few planes. We were guilty today of flying with three airframes as well. There a few randoms that joined your server, not many of them got to landfall before quitting the server. If they had made it to the AO and been on TS, I believe that the result would have been different. There should have been more planes in the air and always at least one over the AO at all times. Wasted about 10-15 minutes just tanking with Shell (humming the muppets) after Arco disappeared. Redfish
  18. Impressive vids Ranger. Kudos.
  19. Downloaded and hosting right now :)
  20. Not FC2. It was A10c. Yeah Badger is a hoot :) I think it was around eight to ten hours :). I will be back on sporadically this week. The weekends are clear and will be up for another session. Red
  21. Hello guys I just wanted to say a big thanks to the 76th Task Force Blackjack Squadron for hosting the "Separatists Aggression Coop 8 v8.1 Day" mission today. I just completed an eight hour endurance MP mission with some of these guys: 2LtRazor [=TFB=], 9thAF_Badger, Bast, copperpot, deadace, Falcon, Fang, grunt, =HH=MADMAX, Matt & wudupdogz. ***sorry to those guys who I forgot*** I've seen many of your names around the traps on other MP servers and it was finally good to put a "voice" to a name in TS/MP server. We had a very good synchronicity and recycle time with all of the air traffic launching and recovering from Kutaisi and Senaki. There always seemed to be someone within 10nm of the target of interest, either 'cleared in hot' or 'off safe' and ready to broadcast a SPI for the next incoming flight to capture that most important attribute - situational awareness. It was like the United Nations, with people from Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany, NZ, UK & the US. Many of the guys attempted AAR which is great to see, and a few had a crack at an ILS landing, a bit of formation flying and prosecuting the bad guys. I know the new guys learned a lot *they told me so* and I for one am looking forward to the next session. I have enjoyed the flight and the only thing I didn't enjoy were the three CTD's over the eight hours. Crashing To Desktop aside, if anyone else is interested to do this again, I am happy to join and return some lead back to the earth with y'all. Just send a PM and I am happy to fly. Redfish
  22. Downloaded it from DCS user files. maybe add a link to the first post. Always enjoy your missions deep. What do you have planed for an encore?
  23. "Server Ping Timeout." Starting to dread those words gentlemen. Gotta agree with the general sentiment. Had a good session this morning with Axl and Sloth, only to have the server crash with those dreaded words again. Try and get a hotfix out or something. The crash aside gentlemen, this mission is great.:thumbup::thumbup: Red
  24. Gotta new one now. Well the kids took over my puter and think this is bees knees. Stop laughing now.....
