I've had a 100% crash to desktop problem when receiving target points through the HOG menu. I get the notification the data has been received, the second I hit store the sim crashes to desktop. The crash log shows the following # -------------- 20240607-195943 -------------- DCS/2.9.5.55918 (x86_64; MT; Windows NT 10.0.22631) F:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\OH-58D\bin\OH58D.dll # C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 00007ffd502099a7 00:00000000 SymInit: Symbol-SearchPath: 'F:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin-mt;', symOptions: 532, UserName: 'smudge' OS-Version: 10.0.22631 () 0x300-0x1 0x00000000003c99a7 (OH58D): (function-name not available) + 0x0 0x000000000044ef9e (OH58D): (function-name not available) + 0x0 0x00000000003716ec (OH58D): (function-name not available) + 0x0 0x00000000001dc2ef (CockpitBase): cockpit::ccCockpitContext::draw_update + 0x8F 0x00000000003b8fc5 (CockpitBase): cockpit::c_draw_debug_cockpit_tripod + 0x1EA5 0x000000000035fe5c (CockpitBase): cockpit::MultiThreading::hint_for_render + 0x32C 0x000000000014f744 (Visualizer): smCamera_Implement::getClipRegion + 0x1A344 0x0000000000034fc9 (edCore): ed::this_thread::yield + 0xB49 0x0000000000049ff6 (edCore): ed::this_thread::yield + 0x15B76 0x00000000000339c1 (edCore): ed::thread::_get_current_thread_id + 0x71 0x0000000000029333 (ucrtbase): _recalloc + 0xA3 0x000000000001257d (KERNEL32): BaseThreadInitThunk + 0x1D

Didn’t work, INS alignment seems totally bugged.. even with quick start getting all sorts of problems with datalink and turn to target

Think I’ve found a possible solution, will test tonight, might be to do with aligning the INS to magnetic heading.. will report when I’ve tested it

I’ve noticed recently an issue (possibly) with the BS3, KA-50, the indicated airspeed on the HUD seems really slow to update. The IAS can take 5-10 seconds for it to indicate airspeed change. I’m really not sure if this is a bug or feature.

I need help, since the BS3 update, I can’t get auto turn to target, to work. I get shval on target, lock it, hit auto turn and the helicopter seems to turn 90 degrees to the left of where the target is. I’m in auto hover, FD off.. am I missing something?

Thanks. I’ll take a look in to that

Hi guys, QQ can we ban someone that isn't on the server at that moment, we are getting lots of reports of griefing on the 504 free flight server, most of them we manage to get whilst they are still on, but during the night we miss a few.

The Yak-52 does have a finger tip light, so you can light up what you point the mouse at. Default control is Left Alt - L - I believe

Hi Everyone. Next weekend 02/05/20 at 10:00 BST some of the pilots from the 504VFS are going to be flying a marathon/challenge event to raise money for the Starlight COVID-19 Appeal Starlight for those of you who may not have heard of it, is a charity who grant last wishes for terminally ill children, giving them some happiness in dark times. It's a charity close to a few members of our squadron. With current world events going on, they need more help than ever. The 504VFS will be hosting several streams on twitch, raising money via Twitch and Tiltify to suppot Starlight. The Event will be a flight visiting every airport in the Caucus region using the YAK-52 This will be quite a challenge to undertake. The Yak-52 is the slowest plane in DCS with a average speed of 90kts. the distance to cover will be 982 Nautical Miles. Flying time will be about 10 to 11 hours. We will also have to stop for short rest breaks and to refuel the aircraft. We would love it if you could come and support our pilots during this event. Donate if you can, if you can't then please just say hi and give some encencouragement. You can watch and support the streams via these links 504Smudge - https://www.twitch.tv/504smudge Lambo93 - https://www.twitch.tv/lambo93/ Motosuwa - https://www.twitch.tv/motosuwa_ We really hope to see you there.

Just wondering if anyone has a answer for this?

Hey everyone, I'm curious if anyone knows if we can add the Stennis back to mission hosted on a dedicated server? It be really nice to add it on to the 504VFS Free Flight dedicated Beta server soon

Hey everyone, apologies if this has been asked, I've searched the forum and can't find anything. I was wondering if it's possible to turn off the cities lights at night. This after all is a combat flight simulator, and usually in times of war, or when bombs start dropping city lights usually go out, weather this is due to a power plant being struck (usually day 1 target) or by choice to make bombing difficult. I've searched but can't see a way to make the map blackout at night. does anyone know if this is possible? or if there are plans to make it possible? maybe by using a triggger or in map event?

Been trying to A2A refuel tonight, but finding the probe just goes through the aircraft, it’s not seeming to connect. Also as I stabilised behind the KC135 the boom moved them the Tanker exploded. Not sure why

Found the problem, having Triggered actions for the ICLS and TCN is causing the Stennis to ignore waypoints.

Found a bug where currently the CVN 74 Stennis isn’t following any waypoints set in the ME, has any else experienced this? Done some tests and it seems to be working on some missions and not others, trying to find the cause
