I believe the 1984 manual is not to be used here (see rule 1.16), but I managed to find the right sections in the 1978 manual. The inconsistency is now reported.

Thank you. Issue reported.

T.O. 1F-5E-1 page 1-99 does not make it very clear. Are both ADF and DF needed, or only DF? I'll keep reading the manual. EDIT: After reading again all of the above in this thread, I agree. DF should suffice to get a a bearing on the HSI. Let me recap before reporting: TACAN + MAIN, BOTH or ADF: HSI shows TACAN bearing DF + MAIN or BOTH: HSI shows radio beacon bearing DF + ADF: HSI shows nothing

Issue reported.

@Fuggzy I tried your track but I cannot reproduce the issue. Can you please check and confirm this was fixed?

Hi @RokaOvO. The old Kuznetsov model is incompatible with the dynamic spawn system. Dynamic spawn will soon be disabled for this unit in the mission editor.

This is already fixed internally. The fix should be in the next code update.

Ah, yes indeed, there is something wrong: ambient sound in the back do not change at all while the cargo door (or the right gunner door) is opened. ambient sound in the cockpit changes while the door between the cockpit and the cargo is closed. Inconsistency reported.

Many thanks, @Tholozor. I couldn't see the problem because an internal version had these issues fixed. I'll ask devs when these fixes will be pushed.

Can you please create a new thread and attach a track?

Thanks for your precious feedback.

Issue reproduced and reported.

Crash easily reproduced: it happens when a helicopter is told to Refuel/rearm at a platform. Reported to devs. There seems to be an issue with your platform. I copied-pasted it next ot it and asked the Chinook to land, and there is no more crash. Weird. @Mikeyfry Found it, it's the combination of your SET AI LIFE script to the platform unit and the order given to the Chinook to land on this same platform.

Thank you very much. Case fixed in the next core udpate. Helicopters won't struggle anymore to pick up cargos on platforms. Crash reproduced. I'm trying to understand what happens.

NVIDIA user here, and I confirm most weird stuff in DCS happens to AMD GPU owners. I've been avoiding AMD since I replaced my Radeon 4850 for a GTX980 Ti.

@SSSinus Also ensure your Windows Power plan is set to High performance (or Max performance). Anything but "Eco".

No wonder why the black smudge disappeared since it seems to be generated by clouds. We all get the same error messages. These were reported a while ago: 2025-03-15 11:18:31.168 INFO DX11BACKEND (15272): DX11Renderer initialization (w:3440 h:1440 fullscrn:1 vsync:0 adapter:0 monitor:0 shaderErrors:1) ... 2025-03-15 11:18:33.722 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND (15272): render target 'mainDepthBuffer' not found 2025-03-15 11:18:33.799 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND (15272): render target 'uiTargetColor' not found 2025-03-15 11:18:33.799 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND (15272): render target 'uiTargetDepth' not found

I'll see if I can reproduce this issue. Can you please create a new thread with a .miz file to demonstrate the crash?

Hi @Bullets. I tried to reproduce the issue, but in my track, my attacker had to shoot me from the side, seemingly in order to avoid the Sun messing with its missile sensor. If the issue is still present, please attach a DCS track. AI IR missiles do not see the Sun.trk

Hi @GumidekCZ. Thanks fro the heads up. I've reported the M-2000C liveries. I can't see the problem with the F-16C liveries. How do you know there are no mimaps?

Thanks for the feedback, @Nealius. I've tried to reproduce the issue with a static unit but I seems to work for now. If you manage to reproduce the issue, please attach a .miz file.

Issue reported. Thank you for the mission file, @virgo47.
