No worries, just felt I needed to push back gently

folks please get back on topic or we can close this thread as derailed. thank you

No problem, as long as you enjoy it and have fun. But we best get back on topic. Discussion of the EW

We are all a passionate bunch and love the subject matter, but yes some can get a little caught up in it all

I think you are need to understand that as much as we want to be as close to real life as we can be, DCS is a "for entertainment product" and is not for military use. This is a simulation game for having fun on. There are other products for professional use that wont be discussed here. thank you

Just to update you all on our next steps after the API we will be tackling dead unit shack saving and waypoint parameters. thank you

I do not agree with your assessment, but lets not have a debate here. As you can already tell we have been working hard on this and already adding the API features. thank you

It would not be possible sorry, the dedicated ones are built in a way so all can use them on the dedicated server. The client ones require authorisation like any other module in DCS.

save your F5 keys, we are likely looking at a later release time than usual. As soon as it is ready I will let you all know. thanks

You should not use the client terrains, you need to use the terrains on the dedicated server. The licencing is different as you do not need to own them to host them on a dedicated server.

And just to be sure, you are using terrains from the dedicated server and not linking to client terrains?

All we can tell so far is the terrains are not being authorised - reason unknown. Directories look good, and go to the redirection. But when we test terrains are authorised and all seems normal. Its very odd. Can I ask what antivirus / security you are using?

At the moment we are not seeing any indication of why you are having this issue. Its odd. Leave it with us and we will have a think about it and see if we can come up with some answers. thank you

Hi, can you attach your autoupdate_log.txt from your server. thank you

Are you saying it was "Aliens?" ( Sorry couldnt resist ) We have done a lot of research and there is a lot of public information out there, as well as known physics and calculations. We are confident we can do it justice in DCS. thank you

Below is an example of the links we are using and have tested e:\Eagle Dynamics\Dedicated testing\Mods\terrains>mklink /D MarianaIslands h:\MarianaIslands e:\Eagle Dynamics\Dedicated testing\Mods\terrains>mklink /D Normandy h:\Normandy

We can not confirm the issue, it has been tried on Marianas. I will ask the team about how they are using symbolic links.

Can you please retry and attach the dcs log from the server. thank you

I will ask the team to take another look at symbolic links and the server. thanks

lets stay on topic please and thanks

Yes, heatblur has handed the additions to the change log to us, we will share them tomorrow if all goes to plan. thanks

Current version number: DCS 2.9.14.8394 Next planned update: 17th April 2025 ( subject to change ) Apologies all, the team have found an issue during final checks and the patch has been moved one day to the 17th. Thank you first post updated

Moved to for sale section.

Folks stick to the topic and to DCS. Off topic posts will be removed without warning.

A tweak should be in a future patch.
