False positive. The file is encrypted audio data.

Repair with "check all files" + "remove extra files" will return your DCS to its pristine state. No need to reinstall. You are welcome.

the log says 00000.077 INFO : DCS/2.5.6.59625 (x86_64; EN; WORLD,A-10C_2,P47D30,WWII-ARMOUR,NEVADA_terrain) These are the only modules in your install known to the updater. Haven't you happened to delete or edit the autoupdate.cfg file?

Hi! Something to do with your connection. Please, submit a support ticket, the guys will provide you with debug URLs.

This belongs to the Voice Chat thread. A different issue.

With 99% probability this is your (or ISP's) firewall breaking the connection.

Whitelist DCS in your antivirus. This is 100% a false positive, because this is an encrypted data file.

I'm glad you are glad I'm only the communicator in this case, and was just annoying our guys with @Hawkeye60's requests ;)

Most probably it is a hardware failure (CPU or memory if overclocked, or a loose cable/dying HDD/SDD). If next attempts give you exactly the same error, then the failure happened when the file was being downloaded and now its disk copy is bad. In this case delete the _downloads\Mods/terrains/Caucasus/Surface/Caucasus.surface5.* file and start update again. It will redownload the file (it's several GBs, sorry).

Indeed. There're some problems with CDN update, we managed to push the update itself, but not the info-page. It'll update.

This time I pushed new the updater before the update Usually they come together, yes.

Please, contact the support. They will provide you with debug URLs.

I know, I wrote the sound engine Is your main output set to "Default" device?

Hmm, the idea was that the VR-headset is selected as the output(s) only when audio output is set to use the 'Default' device. Is it working this way?

Just found this. An interesting take. Reminds me of Quake2 soundtrack a bit. Btw, the original soundtrack is available on my Bandcamp page: https://c0ff.bandcamp.com/album/lockon-flaming-cliffs-2-original-game-soundtrack And everywhere else: https://band.link/LockOnFC2

It is the driver. Anyway, we added a better workaround. Thank you very much for help!

Wow! Thanks for the feedback!

Please, reach for the support. They will provide you with the links to debug server problems.

Ok. Great! I will add support for mono devices to the code. Thank you for the effort!

If you buy it on Bandcamp. Thanks!

Current code assumes a buggy driver here and tries to force stereo config. I guess the device is actually mono and thus the stereo attempt fails. Let's check the following: add the line to your Config/autoexec.cfg file (create an empty one if there's none): sound.channel_mask = 4 This will force DCS to use mono output. If this helps, I will adjust the code to accept mono devices.

Please, contact the support telling all the details. They will provide you with the links to track down specific datacenter issues.

IC works by checking hashes of what's actually loaded. So if you have an example of exploit, please, PM me.

yep, that's a gui bug. thought this was fixed. will alert the testers.
