They reckon it's says a lot about someone who can make a meaningful apology.. also says a lot a about someone who can accept one... I'm not holding my breath

I've thought about my reply & I was out of line man, so I apologise to you Flappy for being so abrasive & snappy. I was frustrated & pissed off & I won't be coming in Forum anymore to report bugs or problems, I'll just suck it up. It's too unnerving & upsetting & I'm too old for it. Again.. sorry, peace out

Oh so your solution for DCS constantly crashing after recent update is to blame our hardware? Are you serious? This is where we are now? "Solve our own issues" That's pathetic... are you even a dedicated support person?

Oh ok so I fly this mission nearly 20 x without DCS crashing.. same settings, same software/hardware no mods & then immediately after the latest Update my DCS crashes twice within the same mission virtually at the same point & your saying it's my doing? Err I think not, files attached dcs.log.old

Hornet Syria map, DCS crash in same user created mission twice in 10 mins. Tried repair after first crash. Flew same mission yesterday & many times prior with no issues. No mods used. Game crashes at about the same place, either just after launching off boat or soon after. Left with in-game image screen freeze & no ability to alt tab or ctrl alt delete. Only option avail is to manually & totally shut down pc which I hate doing. Files attached dcs.20210106-143602.crash dcs.20210106-143602.dmp dcs.20210106-142002.crash dcs.20210106-142002.dmp

Hey Burt man! Thanks amigo, yea mine is all good too.. no issues here, maybe I heard wrong

Yep, corner store, too lazy Thanks man, appreciate

Hey good people.. Merry Christmas & a Happy & heaps better New Year to come. Just wondering if anyone out there is having any dramas with Ge Force Game Ready Driver 460.89 release 15/12/20 because I heard some were having issues with it in conjunction with DCS.. so I'm still using previous 457.51 Regards Gaz

Hey there g2k. I understand your frustration. AAR is one of the most irritating & annoying tasks to learn but trust me, once you get a few done it becomes much easier. I read quite a few of the tips peeps here have been giving you & they're all correct in one way or another. Although I didn't see anything about "Wake Turbulence", make sure this setting is OFF in your Options, just until you get a few under belt & also when learning your AAR.. if you can set the wind to zero in the ME. I have a Warthog throttle too & just recently had my first night AAR which you will also eventually accomplish as well. Use little increments of more & less throttle & if you want to look at the basket LOOK at the damn thing lol. Remember.. once connected what your trying do to is anticipate the Tanker moving away from you & you moving too close & that's when you make your little adjustments that split second ahead to keep yourself connected with the basket. Just relax with it & don't tense up & finally make sure you hear "Clear Contact" so you are able to hook up with the basket. Like I said, once you get a few nailed, you'll be looking forward to performing them & enjoying it. Cheers GA

Thanks BIGNEWY, awesome as always! I don't know how you do it man..

I would like to close this case now. The problem is too radical & it's freakin me out too much lol. Intermittent issues are really hard to nail down ie: I flew my Search Seek & Destroy night mission yest & had the same weird problem of GBUs not releasing after an initial good release. I then set up a test day mission in Caucus map using GBU12s releasing to moving tgts & all worked perfectly. I then went back my Search mission & replicated everything exactly as I usually do in regards to pre weapon delivery stuff & everything worked absolutely perfect, all bombs released with no issues at all. So I'm stumped as to why this happens & I'm wishing this case to be closed & I've also removed my example vid of this from my YT Ch. Thanks kindly to anyone who added comments & support, much appreciated. If it happens again I'll just roll with it or restart DCS maybe that'll help, who knows. Peace out GA

Thanks for your speedy reply BIGNEWY, I do appreciate it & sorry if I came across a bit hot under the collar in my last mesg. I'm just kinda over this whole thing man. Here are three Track files, links via my Google Drive, anyone can have access. All showing same mission day & night. Thanks again for your attention to this one P.S Yes I am holding down the weapon release button lol https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qrxC3RfC6zs-D0eB-tN-ulpDQ-0ZIzne/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LXRLmUuUpdr40S2NBTWKtLkOfkd6svjj/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GSCVVx6YQTuMv_vp9w_Nx-y_9AVIe1DM/view?usp=sharing

Well it happened again.. what was supposed to be an enjoyable night flight mission has again turned to disappointment & time wasted. How is one suppose to add a Track file showing the problem when the issue occurs like 10 mins into the mission which equates to around 40 or 50,000 KB? This problem keeps happening with the GBU12 not releasing when it's supposed to, it's that simple ok. A Track file cannot be edited to the size of 5 MB or less so therefore this cannot be presented here in a Track file. I have provided a link in a comment above to my You Tube channel clearly showing the problem in two separate vids. As my broken record keeps stating.. this issue is also causing DCS to crash, freeze, lock up or whatever you want to call it. Please let me know if this going to be addressed or not so I can move on & not keep hoping & waiting & expecting the next update to solve it. I'm a faithful supporter of ED & very understanding & I also know they have more bugs to get through than an African jungle. I just wish to know if this one is going to be one of them that's gets put on their swat list. Peace out GA

Yes, Laser will still countdown & fire & also LTD Switch will snap back to Safe position as if Bomb was released too. This issue started after last update & now it's crashing the game.

The Paveways are showing correct amount in selected program & all pre delivery settings are correct. Happens only after successful first release. It's starting to really p... me off now as it ruins the particular mission I'm flying & testing atm. Oh well, that's the way it goes I guess *sigh*

Yep & it's happening more frequently now, very annoying as it kinda wrecks the whole mission where you have the exact amount of Paveways as same amount of Targets. I have recorded & will post on my YT Ch but will be private & give access to BIGNEWY

Thanks for the reply BIGNEWY, I totally understand. I will get a record of this if it happens again & show you. Regards GA

Hey good people, this has happened a few times since the last update as I have never experienced this prior & have dropped countless GBU12 in the past. Flying in Syria map at 20k first release of Paveway is fine but then the second bomb sometimes will not release. I have no track file as cannot show my thumb pressing & holding down the weapon release button. Hope someone can investigate this one. Regards G

Now I'm happy! Thanks a bunch ED for fixing this one! :)

This is actually better than I thought it would be after watching BIGNEWY'S demo. Now the problem for me of squishy 800 x 1200 images is solved as all I do is drag out the left boarder to revert the image to it's original size or even bigger! It works beautifully! Look what I did with my mission map.. original 800 x 1200 looks lame ( & believe me I tried everything to make my image work within 800 x 1200 template, even working on my Laptop with lower res & various software tools with no results ) but then when I added it looking squished I thought "hang on maybe if I stretch it out with kneeboard feature it'll look normal & yep it worked as you can see. Text info is fine & fits nicely when viewing down to kneeboard & of course one can zoom in anyway & the drag & bookmarking all work fine. I'm so getting into this kneeboard thing now.. Awesome free addon! I'm stoked! Thank you big time ED this is a wonderful tool for all of us :thumbup:

I'm sad

I absolutely love DCS & have been enjoying it for many years now, from Black Shark way back on release to SU27 to the HOG & currently FA/18C & maybe soon F16 or the new A10C II or even Black Shark II as I've bought all & all the maps too & you know what.. I feel awesome when I spend money here knowing it's indirectly benefiting me in the long run. I just want to say that we should think a little before post our whinging whine about something that's not quite right here like lighting effects, clouds or explosions or whatever. You gotta think ED is not Infinity Ward ( COD ) or EA Games, Ubisoft or Square Enix etc. These companies have endless resource$ at their disposal with hundreds & hundreds of people working across the Globe. We have ED which is no where near in the league of these companies but what we do have & incredibly so I might add.. is the greatest combat flight simulator on the planet today & for that we should be more grateful & give ED more compliments rather than negative feedback. Peace out GA

Untick realistic Slew if A10C Throttle I have %100 better results when my Realistic Slew option is unticked.. I use Warthog Throttle. Also, environmental conditions & the landscape can play a part in accurately nailing your targets. I discussed this & demo'd it in a vid I did a couple of months back for a 4 strike in one pass. :)

Hey thanks & sorry I should've checked prior, cheers man :thumbup:
