!!SOLVED!! OK, I managed to solve my problem. I did a number of things, I can't tell you specifically what it was that fixed the problem, but I guess start from the least impacting change to you and work down the list. Firstly I disabled Windows Update from installing Drivers in the future. (I suspect this was the problem) - Run gpedit.msc - Browse to "Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update" - Find setting called "Do not include drivers with Windows Update" and enable it. - Restart you PC 1. I re-installed my motherboard USB 3.1 drivers, due to Windows Update Driver being installed 2. Cleared the "metashaders2" & "fxo" from Saved Games\DCS.openbeta 3. I updated my video card drivers to 436.30 (clean install), due to Windows Update Driver being installed 4. After driver install I set Low Latency Mode to "On" 5. Disabled MalwareBytes from scanning DCS Folder 6. I uninstalled oculus software and re-installed it. 7. Updated my m/b BIOS to the latest version The issue only occurred in DCS, I have since played a number of hours without a single issue both in single and multiplayer. I hope what I have suggested works for you.

This doesnt appear to work with the Dedicated Server. I followed the information given, but I suspect there is some step that was omitted. Any help would be appreciated

Hi, Is there something special I need to do to be able to browse folders in the web interface? I click / "double click" to enter the "DCS.openbeta_server" folder but it doesn't open. Is this a known fault with the WebUI?

good call, I will give it a go shortly and get back to you if this fixes the problem.

Yeah room is well lit, that was something i noticed when i first got the Rift S, that the tracking is dogshit without the lights on. Good suggestion though. :thumbup:

Hi guys, I am getting an issue with the latest Beta of DCS World (2.5.5.35461). The issue I am experiencing is an intermittent hitching followed by an Oculus Re-center (often outside of my vehicle) I have checked my drivers are all up to date, other games seem to work without issue. The performance is butter smooth except for when the game hitches. Sometimes it doesn't reset the center point, other times it does. It happens both in Multiplayer and in Single Player. System Specs are: CPU: i7-5930K M/B: Asus X99-Deluxe (BIOS ver. 3902) RAM: 128GB - Corsair Dominator Platinum CMD128GX4M8A2666C15 Video Card: EVGA RTX 2080 Ti XC Hybrid Gaming (11G-P4-2384) VR: Oculus Rift S Controls: Warthog Stick & Throttle, CH Pedals

I think I will wait for some reviews to come in on the Throttle, I am not interested in a new stick at this stage.

How do we submit bug reports? Hi Skatezilla, How do you want bug reports sent through. Your app has been working great until a .net update came through today and now the GUI Updater wont launch at all. Here is what is currently in my applications eventlog, If there is another log i should be looking at please let me know.

Hi, As dedicated Servers are becoming easier to use the updater seems to be in need of some love. I am trying to find out if the dcs_updater.exe has a silent unattended execution method, I have a powershell script executing the "dcs_update.exe update @openbeta" command but when it finds a new version it prompts me to install it. Here is my current work around. update_DCS.ps1 ////////////////////////////// $DCS_BIN = "G:\Games\DCS World\bin" #Modification of any of the below lines cound produce undesirable effects #Script by OzDeaDMeaT, work around script until dcs_updater.exe has silent mode $DCS_Updater = "$DCS_BIN\dcs_updater.exe" $currentLOC = get-location $Pwrshell = New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell; set-location $DCS_BIN .\DCS_updater.exe update @openbeta write-host "Waiting 15 Seconds for Check Update Window to complete check" sleep 15; write-host "Looking for DCS Updater Window: " -nonewline $Pwrshell.AppActivate('DCS Updater') sleep 1; write-host "Key Press ~" $Pwrshell.SendKeys('~') $contLoop = $true $working = 0 while ($contLoop) { #This grabs the current tick count for the busy process sleep 30; $ticks = (get-process | where-Object {$_.Path -eq $DCS_Updater} | select TotalProcessorTime | Sort-Object TotalProcessorTime -Descending)[0].TotalProcessorTime.ticks if ($ticks -gt $working) { #Process is still working, update $working tick count $working = $ticks write-host "DCS Updater Ticks = $working" } else { write-host "Job Done, total completed ticks: $ticks" $contLoop = $false } } sleep 5; write-host "Key Press ~" $Pwrshell.SendKeys('~') set-location $currentLOC ////////////////////////////// This script is required to be run in GUI mode as there is no silent way to execute the updater. Can you please address this? Regards, OzDM

Hi guys, I am getting the following error when loading DCS. Authorization is valid for 2d 23h 59m The following DLCs are not authorized and will be disabled: F-14 I own it, I see people flying it, does anyone know how to fix this issue?

I am looking for a way for people to be given a single slot at an airfield and then have them select the aircraft they want to spawn in and have them teleport into it to fly.

So I only need 1 slot at that airfield for all players joining?

Is there a way to change the aircraft designated to a slot in Multiplayer while the mission is running? What I am wondering is if there is a way to give an Airfield a # of aircraft and allow players to select a slot and then the aircraft to be spawned in that slot. And once the slot is spawned t removes 1 air-frame from the airfields pool.

Great Product... But Thnx for making a great program. My friend and I have Advanced and we cant get RTT working with our Server. It works locally but not from other machines. Any help would be appreciated. Have posted an issue on GitHub and also on the TACView Forums. https://github.com/Vyrtuoz/Tacview/issues/1 http://dogsofwarvu.com/forum/index.php/topic,6575.0.html We can telnet to the 42674 port so we know its not a network issue. Look forward to any help you can provide.

The instructions say to edit a file that does not exist. ""Config/Twitch2DCSConfig.lua"" It isnt in the Package to install either. I am running DCS 2.5.2.20601 and Twitch2DCS version Twitch2DCS v1.0.3-beta. Errors recieved when loading into DCS are: [string "C:\Users\OzDeaDMeaT\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\Twitch2DCS.lua"]:236: loop in gettable [string "C:\Users\OzDeaDMeaT\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\twitch\server.lua"]:69: calling 'receive' on bad self (tcp{client} expected, got userdata)

!!SOLVED!! Righto, after a peer review and an entire day of trouble shooting. I removed the second video card and everything came up 100%. I wasn't satisfied that I would essentially have a Titan sitting in a box beside the computer I tried to work out what the issue was further. It seems that all I needed was a second HDMI port on card 1. My Titan X Pascal only has 1 HDMI port so after a quick visit to OfficeWorks to buy a passive adapter from DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 it all came up good, even with SLI enabled now. I think the issue was that I was trying to use the second cards HDMI port and that may have had some strange memory sharing or something going on. This was trouble shot after a complete windows rebuild and after having the same symptoms I had to know why it was ONLY DCS that wasn't working in VR. Although I didn't get to the root cause, I hope this helps someone in the future troubleshoot VR issues with there rig. Thank you all for your help.

As far as I can tell, I have a configuration perfect Storm. Nothing I do seems to work getting this to work. Might see if I can borrow a mates Vive, if that works I will just throw this Piece of Shit away.

OK, found out something interesting. When I unplug my Oculus and load the game it loads the 3D hanger but ofcourse it doesnt load into the oculus. When I have the Oculus plugged in, it doesn't load the 3D hanger menu and loads the standard version of the game.

It is enabled. It's more like the fresh install isn't even loading the VR version of the game.

Hi, I see a white screen and a message saying that DCS is taking a long time to load. I then hear the music and look through the side of the oculus to see a standard menu.

Hi guys, Long time reader, only posted a few times. I am having difficulty loading a fresh install of DCS into VR mode. For some reason the game continually loads into the standard menu except it is truncated to a more rift like aspect ratio. This is a fresh install of DCS, I have loaded the game into engine once as I thought it might be a shaders issue but apparently not. Oculus works fine on the demo stuff so it seems to be an issue just with DCS. I have tried the force VR commandline dcs.exe and the same non-Hangar menu is presented to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -OzDM OuT

Anyone had success exporting viewports in 1.5 yet?

Helios is not outputting an Export.lua

I can't seem to get any of my A10C touch screen controls working since 1.5. Anyone have Helios working with 1.5 at all?

Changing the location to the G drive worked. Recommend using reg edit to update the path
