Hi, 
thank you for the track replay. 
It is important to remember that the IR seeker is an optical lock on the highest contrast point, it looks like the lock it being made on the rubble close to the intended target. 
Closing range and adjusting contrast may help. 
thank you 

Watching the track it looks like something is messing with the rocker switch top right of the MFD 
when I take control of the track all seems ok for me.
Double check nothing is creating a problem like a double input or 3rd party macro. 
edit: snipped by AdrianL 🙂

Hi, 
currently we are discussing the pre-order with steam, however steam have strict requirement's for pre-order and it may not be possible. 
If that changes we will let you all know.

Hi
it looks like an display driver crash 
2024-03-16 14:07:06.447 INFO    EDCORE (7908): # -------------- 20240316-140706 --------------
2024-03-16 14:07:06.448 INFO    EDCORE (7908): DCS/2.9.3.51704 (x86_64; MT; Windows NT 10.0.19045)

If you overclock try with defaults, it maybe worth a fresh driver instal also, ensure windows is also up to date. 
Increasing pagefile initial size to 32768 may also help 
 
 

Hi, 
I have no news to share about Iraq yet, as soon as we are ready we will share some.

I will check on the status of the damage model

Hi we fixed by removing the waypoint 2 formation instruction for the tail element and removing one bombing command and changing the other bombing command to “carpet bombing”. It now all works as I presume you intended. Carpet bombing command is the best and only option when using “Big Formation” to ensure all the bombers carry out the specified tasking. 
We also added passive defence to all the aircraft groups.
please give it a go and see if it helps
thank you

Hi, 
are you using meta quest headset? If so v63 has created issues for DCS, a fix will be in the next patch. I will post some information below that has some work arounds.

If you are not a meta headset user please post your dcs log from saved games dcs folder it will have some clues. 
thank you 


---------------------------------
By default DCS uses OpenXR which is supported by Oculus.
For Multithreading DCS we also have a native Oculus API available which can be enabled by adding --force_oculus_VR
Due to the priority order OpenXR driver is selected first (prior to v62 oculus update) this was working well,
with Oculus v63 they broke OpenXR for DCS.
As a work around users can use native oculus with --force_oculus_VR
We do have a fix for the v63 driver coming in a future patch that will allow openXR to work correctly again for Oculus using the newer driver. 
Thank you

Please also note there is a steamVR oculus plugin work around found by Jaghammer.

also check game flight is disabled in game play tab

There is nothing more to really fix. We know from references that the value is 9 ms, and we are within 1 ms.
thank you 

Hi, 
please check which device is fitted to the helmet, attaching the mission or track replay would help, but in my test all is working as expected. 
thank you 

Hi,

Dont get confused about MT and ST 
they were both part of stable and open beta before the merge and nothing has changed yet. 
You still have the option to use ST or MT via the bin or mt-bin folder. 
Eventually ST DCS will be removed, but while we tweak MT DCS it is still an option
thank you 

Hi,
As we've said before, we're working on a new external light system that will apply to all aircraft
thank you 

Hi the STN value has to be numeric only
thank you 

you can just delete or use the uninstaller in the root of the instal 
If you have stable and open beta currently, keep stable and remove open beta. 
make sure you backup your inputs and anything you want from the saved games DCS.openbeta folder as you may want to move them to the saved games DCS folder. 

there is only one dcs version now, just update and you have the new FC3 updates. 

Custom Mods
BRONCO_V1.24,A-4E-C please remove

Errors
Hot plug Events
Disable hot plug in your CONTROLS section.

There is a GPU-related error
(Re-)install the latest GPU drivers. Don't overclock your GPU or RAM.

The crash occurred inside GraphicsCore.dll.
Try a !repair.
Remove your custom mods.
Delete Saved Games\DCS\fxo and metashaders2 and try again.
Next, delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\TEMP\DCS and try again.
Next, try renaming Saved Games\DCS to DCS.old and try again.
 
Most of them can be explained by unofficial mods breaking DCS, unstable overclocks, or out dated drivers. But best to have them create a thread and attach the dcs log so we can check it. 
thank you
