  1. They are EMPTY of human players, including myself, or don't open (see error screen attached)! I just noticed they exist in Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Tracks\Multiplayer for all my online sessions, but none of them, if do open, show any action besides AI. So just wasting disk space...
  2. Yes, but they land hundreds feet away! I can't hit power plants!! The mission is to fly low with pop up 2.5 miles from target, I can't use CCIP... I attached my tacview. Please let me know if I'm doing it wrong. Edit: never mind, I flew it again at a slower speed, 1200AGL, and bombs landed on target. I think auto only works at a certain speed, I think around 350 Kias. Tacview-20200604-143359-DCS-OERmissionP1-v1.5-08.zip
  3. I could fly the Quick F-18 BVR 8v8 mission earlier this week, but it's a slideshow now with FPS dropping to low teens. I reduced visibility one step to Medium and deleted fxo and metashaders. I cannot tune down features every week, my patience is hair thin. The fact that DCS made a buggy OB 2.5.6 into new Stable tells a lot. They don't care about our experience. They just want to sell more modules like the Supercarrier, faster.
  4. +1 annoyed user. DCS does seem to keep reducing drawing distance with each patch to make up for lost FPS. And they keep losing FPS at each iteration of OB, a never-ending path to the bottom. My right eye is not 20/20, so the problem of oddly disappearing objects is huge for me (((
  5. Only noticed it today after the last update - different smudge shapes for each eye in VR make me dizzy when looking up. I had to lower my gamma to 1.1 to remove it in Rift (but creating problems for day flights).
  6. Hello, thanks for the mission! I think the BRC is slightly off. When I fly along the wake, the course line is some 2-3 degrees less.
  7. Please add to the list the new A/G radar! The knob only dims static lines/symbols, not the picture - it is blinding at night.
  8. +1, makes it impossible to progress in certain campaigns ((
  9. @Stubbies2003 Hello. Which .lua?
  10. Huh? I know I can use ON and OFF separately, and I did just that in the screen attached, but it takes two bindings instead of one (and occupies two buttons/switch positions on my physical HOTAS). The switch in question - KY58 Power Select does not need to be held in RL. I can bind gear up/down to a single button, but not this switch? Just does not make any sense to me...
  11. Hello. Some clickable controls are only enabled for joysticks. What is the reason for that? I use Warthog TARGET for everything, and not being able to map it is annoying.
  12. Hi devs! My SRS failed me today. I hear connect and disconnect sounds, other people hear me, but I don't hear them. I see TR, but do not hear transmit sounds (clicks). They are enabled of course. Last OB. I tried updating SRS, same problem. It is not in control panel to uninstall it properly. How do I debug this?
  13. Hello, I saw an old thread about tanker's lights not coming up. It would not be a problem: I can use NVG. Both s3 and KC130 reply, but the basket is not catching. AI wingman can refuel no problem, the lights come up, hose extends. I tried simultaneous refuel on the right one while he was on the left. Precontact acknowledged, but 1 meter from the basket always 'break away, break away' and the probe just goes through. I saved many tracks with S3 and KC130, both one- and two-ship flights, but they all: a) miss any tanker lights that I saw with my own eyes, b) miss all communications, c) miss hose animations. So no point to attach. And the AI wingman after 'go to tanker' command sees and hears nothing until he's done (will ram you if you take left hose). What is going on, really? Just too many bugs here. I am stuck at a certain campaign because I just can't refuel in the dark... (((
  14. I meant VSPX Processing = ON in Vaicom preferences + Unrecognized Speech Delay = 700 in Voice Attack - Options -Recognition tab. This helps me say things in one go.
  15. Try switching the recognition engine from Windows to internal one (see manual). It fixed for me similar issue with wingman (awaiting further info loop).
  16. @Hollywood_315 Hello and thanks for your work! Some questions. ATC 'Suppress auto' does suppress auto replies by the pilot, but then DCS gives no time to say anything manually nor awaits that reply. For example, I say 'marking mom's', get bunch of numbers from Marshall, and immediately hear 'readback correct'. Same with 'switch approach' and other messages - ATC does not care if I reply or not. So turning this option on reduces realism, not increases it. Another problem for me, adding "state X.X" or "angels X" to a keyword prevents it from being recognized. Same with Side Number, i.e. '313 established angels 6' does nothing. I learned to make '313' (my squad MODEX) an alias to Marshall, and now '313 established', '313 commencing', '313 hornet ball' etc work fine. But I am still to find a way how to get 'angels X' and 'state X.X' parts of the message ignored. I can't make them an alias to anything, because the numbers always change... Third issue, Disable Player Voice in multiplayer works wrong. It mutes my voice for me (correct) but also mutes for me all F-menu-generated voices of other players. I cannot hear what they do anymore, unless everyone like myself talks to SRS and Vaicom Pro with one PTT. And if they do not use Vaicom or did not Disable Player Voice on their side, they will still hear me speaking twice - via SRS and with robot voice. Ideally, this setting should disable my robot voice for me and for all users on the server, but what I can hear should be controlled on the side of each player. I hope this makes sense. Any ideas?
  17. Left DDI has space reserved for info lines, like HOME FUEL etc. Not good for HSI or SA
  18. A few times already I received an LSO grade out of context. I.e. flying 100 miles away from carrier and interacting with JTAC (and before any approaches or traps). The mission was very long, but next time it happens quickly I'll attach it. Edit: ah, maybe I sent my AI wingman home with bingo fuel. Why do I care to see his grades?
  19. Dear Hollywood, I long tried to understand how to create new aliases. The manual says 'Use the Keyword editor to change the phrase into something that is better recognized by the engine (PRO license feature)' with no further details. Say, I want 'in the break' to be an alias to 'Kiss off'. I choose 'Kiss off', press 'Add new', it creates 'Kiss off1'. Now what? I can't rename it into 'In the break'...
  20. Thanks. I missed 'stable-open beta' slider in right bottom corner. Somehow it did not matter just yesterday...
  21. ATC plugin and/or update broke my OB! Loading always stops at 10%. Must repair and delete Viacom scripts, then it loads. Disabling ATC extension in the settings is not possible, to test if it is the cause ((
  22. Any ETA on the SC licence? The carrier keywords in place suggest that the code is already there and just awaits activation??
  23. Bare bones Voice Attack is pretty bad at voice recognition and scripting flexibility. I spent all day today trying to make Bailey's scrips dial a manual frequency, read the manuals etc, but then gave up. Windows engine just cannot tell '12' from 'one to'. VAICOM Pro adds some dll's that do some heavy lifting under the hood, it has a section to dial radios, but it also does not work for F18 for some reason. Their scrips are a blackbox, cannot debug them. They promise to sell an extension for Supercarrier ($3.50), but who knows how good it will be. I still bough the Pro license in anticipation of the carrier, just to call the ball ))
  24. Yes, Alt + Enter prevents this problem. Is there no technical possibility to launch DCS in full screen by default? With no monitor and visible keyboard in VR it is hard for me to remember doing that.
  25. OK, maybe it's just me, so the post is in wish list and not in bugs. My PC screen is 1920x1080 and I like my taskbar to auto hide at the bottom. Some events, like Oculus notifications, cause the taskbar to sometimes unhide when I'm in VR. This makes the low placed buttons of DCS interface unclickable - like Exit/New Sever/Join buttons and the Briefing button in MP. When I try to click them DCS loses focus and they grey-out. 'Cursor confined to game window' is ON, but cannot prevent it, as the taskbar becomes on top of the game window! Well, actually there remains a narrow margin at the top of the buttons maybe one pixel wide that I can still click, but this is still very annoying. And I usually don't even turn my monitor/TV on to see the taskbar and make it hide again. Been like this since I remember myself, both in Windows 7 and 10. I don't really understand why having mouse cursor at the center of my view in VR causes it to click the taskbar, but it does. Must me some quick hack how you operate the menus from VR. So, my suggestion is, since DCS cannot seem to stay on top of the taskbar, move those UI buttons a few pixels higher and make the lower part of the UI always static.
