DCS dedicated server on Linux planned https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3632500&postcount=14964 Big love! This would make it so much easier to host DCS Servers!

Is this feature planned to be re-enabled for multiplayer or is it going to stay single player only? This would be valuable information for mission making, as this would-be a very helpful feature in multiplayer ... a simple answer would be much appreciated.

I saw a significant improvement in micro stutter with wednesdays update!

Not only frames better, even in high demand/low framerate situations the situation is dramatically smoother than it was before wednesdays patch! It is so much easier to fly now even with 25 frames! Whatever you did, well done!! I had a hard time lifting my jaw flying last night! With all the critics all the time, this is a good time to say thank you ED!! :)

No idea which issue you mean o.O but the server is going to come back :)

yes

Amen! Please Nineline, I've invited BIGNEWY as well, come to the dynamic DCS server, play a few hours with us. Experience why we think MP needs improvement, and why the work Drex puts into this is unpayable for ED and DCS. Don't just join for 15 minutes, spend a solid evening, and you will understand why MP is so different to SP.

And that said, drex is literally just scratching the surface of what can be possible. Really all we are longing for is some commitment by ED, instead of having their community managers say not enough people complain about it, yet ban them if they loose contenance and then get replies like these. Sorry Nineline, I am still puzzled by the words you chose. They are so descriptive about how we feel about how ED stands towards Multiplayer.

You really said this, did you? The amount of ignorance ED puts towards MP is puzzling. We live in 2018, and ED has buildt up a pretty solid reputation about banning people who complain about things in the forums. Please open your ears towards those people who spend tons of hours developing multiplayer for DCS. Drex might not be the first who's done incredible stuff, but the effort and skill/knowledge he puts into this is one of a kind. Crowdsourcing is real nowadays. Ignoring Multiplayer in Gameplay is just having your eyes closed, and the past few years that I've flown DCS I can only say: ED has grossly ignored Multiplayer as if it was a lesser sidekick of singleplayer. Have a look at what made money in Gaming the past decade. Hint, it's not singleplayer. People love to fly together, not alone. I've said it before, my opinion has been flagged extreme but I stand to it. If you would improve Multiplayer you would see the numbers turn rapidly from SP to MP. It is just so much more engaging than flying alone. DCS excells in simulation and graphics. But as with every simulator the gameplay implementation is not worth mentioning and IMHO the biggest flaw DCS has, yet it gets the least attention.

I have the same issue, however the description is not entirely accurate. It only happens if the TPod is in HTS mode. If the TPod is in underlined TDC Mode it works as intended. If it's in HTS Mode it quirks. Jo jonsky7, interim solution is to switch of HTS and click on TDC again to have it underlined, and the TPod will stay active.

I agree with Slider BIGNEWY! I‘ve seen you once connected to the server, but never playing it. Come spend a few hours with us! I‘d be very surprised if you would not have a good time there.

happening to me as well on ddcs server. it was not only me crashing, another one flying a UH-1 crashed at the same time. DDCS Server. Flying straight and level in a Huey. dcs.log.rar

yes exactly that!

Hello Zeus! I would think it would be great, if you return from a sortie and rearm your Harrier, that you do not receive a brand new TPod which needs to be warmed up again for 8 minutes to get FLIR view. In my head it would make perfect sense to have FLIR available after rearm. It would be very much appreciated if this was somehow possible :) thanks! Beef

I also do not quite understand why this seems to be ignored. Bignewy, an easy way to reproduce would be joining the DDCS Server (I've seen you've been there briefly), hop into the discord channel. Ask ppl if there's anything they'd need to be slinged and where and then just go haul crates in either Mi8 or Ka50. It may take you an hour, or it may happen within 5 minutes. Sometimes it happens everytime I touch a crate, sometimes I can set up a big SAM system with no problems. You will also feel the frustration it generates, when you have a whole team rely on you setting up an asset that may turn forces on the frontline. On a less emotional more coding related side, I suspect it may have a relation with crates not being destroyed on client computers. Since this is what the ddcs server does a lot and little other servers do, it would sound plausible. But then again, I've slinged a bunch of crates with the huey and did not have a single crash. Not knowing the code architecture of cargo-hooking I can only guess how that's related, but from an outside perspective it's something I would look at. Here's drex's report thread, which is also being ignored for reasons I would really like to understand better: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=209552 If we would understand this better, maybe we could improve the way we report things.

I just flew a mp mission. Slewed the T-Pod on an SA-6. Uncaged the maverick. Switched it to from INS to IRMV, which first switched mode on the left mfcd. The second time SSS-Fwd it switched, pressed TDC-Down to lock Mav and it crashed. Log is here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=18SAMDdlk5Es5BWitMU3OqWhvgh2D7SJE

I realized today that when I use a singleplayer mission I can select PT just fine even from a cold start. If I try the same in MP it wont work.

Here's a video of the ka-50 crashing. I land, select the cargo. press hook and poof. gone. crashlog is here: crashlog It was not quite the same situation, as the sling did not even appear, but the crashlog is more detailed.

title says it all. all the rest should be in this link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1EJibniYxK8Xh25YowLiWLmE6Jw3ttrYt

It seems there's somethign wrong with the STRS Page and the sidearm. When I select it, once the tone gets the medium high pitch it will never return the the low pitch, and it will also not lock any more targets. Even if I deselect the Sidearm in STRS the tone is still on.

It the heavy crates on Drex's dynamic dcs server. That's pretty much all I can say I am afraid, but maybe drex will chime in.

Has this bug been acknoledged? Is there anything we can do to help pinpoint the problem? Many times the crates work just fine, but then DCS crashes 5 times in a row. This is a serious problem in Multiplayer. Would be willing to spend some time helping pinpoint it.

I'm having the same problem. I remember having it worked out in an instant action mission when I was setting up controls (just got it few days ago), and now that I am in multiplayer, trying to bring it into "live-action" it does not change mode, neither in hts mode nor clicking the obs button ...

Just tried uninstalling the physx driver and had a crash including logdump in a ka50. Here's the log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XbY9PTtqJVTj4RBsPqW5_I2Fyq5uzjvR/view?usp=sharing

It is not exclusive to the Mi8, it also happens in the Ka50. Usually the log does not yield any results/no crash notice, it would just stop. What I had as last messages when the hook would not hook but fly around was frequently this: 2018-05-30 09:23:15.257 INFO WORLDGENERAL: ADD NEW BULLET SOFT BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:15.257 INFO WORLDGENERAL: ADD NEW BULLET RIGID BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:48.290 WARNING LOG: 2 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2018-05-30 09:23:48.290 INFO WORLDGENERAL: REMOVE BULLET RIGID BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:48.290 WARNING LOG: 2 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2018-05-30 09:23:48.290 INFO WORLDGENERAL: REMOVE BULLET SOFT BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:48.946 INFO WORLDGENERAL: ADD NEW BULLET SOFT BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:48.946 INFO WORLDGENERAL: ADD NEW BULLET RIGID BODY 2018-05-30 09:23:55.479 WARNING LOG: 2 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2018-05-30 09:23:55.479 ERROR Dispatcher: lua_pcall failed,?:0: attempt to index field '?'

Also I have set the physx settings of my nvidia driver to use CPU instead of GPU, which subjectively seems to have lessened the problem, it still happens way too often.
