Agreed I’ve never understood the logic of the default server list starting with the highest ping servers? It.s not likely you want to join a 300+ ping server, or see it as your first in the list

Hi I have noticed the same trend also. With the Jug built like a tank and with good rear protection, and a anecdotal war reputation for bringing the pilot home. It does seems incongruous to me that the pilot gets “iced”, more times than mechanical damage takes you out of the fight? I don’t have empirical evidence of this, but it sure seems so. I would love to hear of others experiences.

Hi We have seen this since Supercariier EA Launch, in our 62ndFF Server missions, One in particular is a Persian Gulf MP Mission: Operation Snow Fox (Much Kudos to Surrexen for a great mission.) We adjusted the time to start at sunrise and it's still quite dark. Inbound calls get a case three response and a Case 2 /3 Menu. About 6:30am it's full daylight with a mild dust haze. Inbound calls get a CASE 1 approach response, but still have CASE 2 / 3 menu system. If you do the CASE 1 approach, ball call and landing, you get no LSO score. Recorded Reason: No proper communication. Hopefully this will be addressed soon, it seems like an easy one to have it switch if Sun is up and weather minimums are good.

F14 Is jerking back and forth on th Stennis after Update Yes I can confirm as well. The jerking is so bad it messes up the rearming process as the crew chief thinks you have moved. Cat hookup is also a bit problematic. F14 seems more affected but F18 is certainly jumping around.

Thanks btd , That will be a great addition. Thanks for spending the time on it. Cheers

Hi Wags I’ve recently got a Buttkicker vibration module and noticed that on the F18 the gear going up and down do not trigger the Buttkickers vibration or clunks as the gear locks down or up. The F14 on the other hand has really noticeable effects that come through to let you know the gear is in transition, locked up or down. Since this is triggered by DCS module sounds, would there be a way to get a more noticeable gear sound for the F18-C?

Issue 2 is the same as mine from a previous post, I’m glad it’s not just me, but would like to find a solution for both of us. Any ideas would be welcome. Cheers

No ATC recipients available Hi Since 2.5.6 I have had several issues with Viacom Pro Updates seem to have fixed the first one, which had lines in Voice attack saying Ario had been disabled. I still have an issue which makes using the TomCat impossible for ATC or Jester commands and other aircraft back to manually operating ATC Before I start let me say I have happily used Viacom Pro and Ario for quite a while with no issues. I am on the latest version of Voice Attack and Viacom pro. I am running Voice attack as administrator, I have also reset the lua File using Viacom’s UI... and restarted VA and DCS. These examples are from multiplayer sessions When I say a command, the command is recognised by the software, it beeps to acknowledge recognition, and then does nothing. When I call an ATC recipients such as Stennis or an airbase like Senaki I get no response from DCS. Viacom beeps a recognition tone but nothing happens, when I look, Voice attack reports “No ATC recipients currently available”. This happens in the F-18 even though a manual radio tune and menu selection has ATC responding normally. I would appreciate any ideas on how to fix this. Cheers Boomer

Hi Black engine exhaust in the F-18 seems to be a known bug after 2.5.6 Associated with it possibly, but I’m not ready to call it a bug yet, from my one sample: I’m getting black smoke continuing to exit the engines well after engine shut down. It continued until I left the server. Anyone else seeing this?

We ran a lan session yesterday, six pilots on the Stennis with latest Open Beta. Server Memory issues were definitely fixed :-) Still saw some CAT problems If you spawned on the CAT 1-4 it works. For F-18, if you land and try to hook up on any CAT in the right position, it wouldn’t hookup using the “U” key. For the F14, pilots they got hooked upjust fine, but going for the launch, they got the salute and were just stuck there, with no launch.

I can also confirm this. We initially tested the server with two pilots and it was ok, but once more people joined for our weekly mission, the server went to 100% memory use within 5 minutes and we had aircraft frozen in the air and massive lag spikes. It was totally unplayable. The exact same mission running on a second 2.55 server was working flawlessly.

Yes I get the same thing, the loading progress bar gets stuck at 10%. I noticed the same behaviour. If I do a repair the sim will start successfully. If I exit and try to start again it gets stuck at 10%. Same applies to restarting the PC

Who is your provider? Two of our team had issues with Aussi-Broadband because of some ip4 scheme they are running to deal with a shortage of ip4 addresses.. It was quickly solved with a phone call to tech support to take them off that scheme. I would call and see if that’s your issue.

Ok thanks for the information. I will get a copy of Sound module. I noticed your response to the post below about a wireless USB Headset, I am also using a wired USB headset I currently use Voicemeeter and plug the Buttkicker output into my on-board sound card. Do I still need a separate sound card for this configuration?
