  1. On the Syria map when zoomed in, the forest areas turn a solid green and block out the underlying contour lines for elevation. Can these be made to show over or through the areas that block them?
  2. There are no training missions with the new A-10C II. How are we meant to learn this new aircraft when basics are missing from the package?
  3. I'm having the same brightness issue. If I set the gamma to suit the outside world, then the cockpit is too dark, and if I set the gamma to suit the cockpit, then the outside world is too bright. It wasn't this bad a week or two ago.
  4. I just updated to the latest Open Beta patch. I am now getting a Malicious Tool warning from Kaspersky about the edCore.dll, Is anyone else getting anything like this, and do I need to worry?
  5. How about we just get the fully functional and working F/A-18C that we PAID for? Other game makers seem to be able to provide complete and functional software, and rectify bugs and issues.. This pre-release stuff only gives us planes to fly, not fight in, and they never seem to get finished. :mad: :pilotfly:
  6. Server list ongoing issue This has been an ongoing issue since the release of 2.5.x and is not Release or OpenBeta specific. If you have any AntiVirus software, then turn it off and refresh the server list until you see all servers. Otherwise just keep refreshing the server list and all servers should eventually show up.
  7. Not seeing all servers I have been experiencing not seeing servers since the initial 2.5 update. I need to constantly refresh the server list to see a complete list of available servers. Two servers I regularly use and never see first time are Drex's DDCS server and Through the Inferno (Australia). There are many others that I don't see on first try either. My first try could give me a list of 80 or 90 servers, then after constant refreshing and retries I might see around 130 servers. And even then I'm not sure if that's everything. If I try to connect via IP, I get a server offline message. But I know via voice communication that there are a dozen people on the server and it is not offline. If it doesn't show in the list I can't even connect via IP. This seems a to defeat the purpose of being able to connect via IP. This has been an ongoing problem for a while now.
  8. Hi, I just updated to 2.5.2.18144 Update 2 for Open Beta. After the update the F/A-18 PDF manual no longer has bookmarks. The index on the first few pages is OK, but now there aren't any bookmarks in the left panel when viewing in Acrobat. It is very handy to have these bookmarks to jump around the manual while trying to learn rather than having to go back to the first few pages to find what you're after. Can you please put the bookmarks back in the next update? Thanks in advance.
  9. Resolved OK I've reverted back to a system backup from a week or so ago, and have reinstalled the update and it is now working on the new OpenBeta. However there is an incredible amount of stuttering / lagging / stalling. Particularly when there are any other aircraft or ground units in visual site. This is the same in all the flights and aircraft combinations I have tried. I haven't been able to get into Multiplayer yet but I'm not looking forward to getting lag killed all the time. Please Eagle Developments fix this up. It's just getting worse with each update. It makes the game unplayable as it should be played.
  10. Hi, I just ran the update for the latest OpenBeta game update (haven't got the PG Map yet), and now when I start up DCS and try to fly any kind of mission or training flight or anything, it proceeds to load the mission, but after about five seconds it politely tells me DCS has crashed and takes me back to the desktop after saving log files. I monitor the DCS log file with LogExpert and have noticed when the crash occurs, the following lines appear INFO EDCORE: G:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\edterrain4.dll INFO EDCORE: # C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at D161B929 00:00000000 I have attached the ZIP file saved by DCS for your reference and hope you can shed some light on the issue. I have tried to delete the FXO and Metashaders files from Saved Games, and have also started with a complete fresh preferences folder in Saved Games (attached log files are from fresh prefs). I can still fly without a problem using my Release install of DCS but simply cannot get OpenBeta to start any mission. OpenBeta is not usable for me at all after this last update. I look forward to a resolution to this problem dcs.log-20180524-033157.zip
  11. I'm back on the previous version now 2.5.0.14304 I have my frame rates back. 70+fps single player, and I just jumped into a couple of the seven servers remaining on this version and I was getting 50+fps. If I am to send a log I will need to do yet another 13GB download/update. You don't want info from the older version do you? I understand that this is 'still' beta, and I'm not a coder/programmer, but with over 30 years around computers and tech support, something tells me this is far from right. Anyhow I'll send a log if/when I update again. But there's not much point updating if I want be able to use the software. And as for purchasing new modules, well what's the point if I won't be able to use them? DCS has a world of followers whose patience is starting to wear very thin with the repeated let downs with software and lack of new modules.
  12. Got the 'latest and greatest' 13GB update earlier today. But it seems more like 3 steps backward than an update. Before the update, in single player I would easily get 50-70+fps. But now after the update I'm lucky to get 20-30fps, but mostly just stuttering around 15fps. On multiplayer servers I would easily get 30+fps and mostly much more before the update. But on the few servers I have actually been able to get onto since updating, I am now lucky to be getting 10fps. I saw 15-20fps on one server but that was still unusable. All in all DCS is now not usable after doing this update. As for other issues, I'm still not seeing all servers in the server list without refreshing time and time again until they show up, and It still takes 15-20 mins to get into a server if it gets listed. I reverted back to an image of my system from a few days ago, and now I have my frame rates back and a usable DCS install. But now I don't see any servers for multiplayer. Well I see about 8 in total. I guess they haven't updated yet. So it seems the update is a forced update if you want to use multiplayer.
  13. Just got todays latest & greatest 13GB download. Took a spin to downtown Vegas. To my surprise they seem to have cloaking technology now. I can't see the buildings, but I can certainly crash into them. C'mon ED, sort these updates out before releasing them.
  14. After todays 13GB download, things are worse than ever. - Still don't see all servers in server list. Have to refresh over and over and over and over until the servers I want appear (if they appear at all) - Still takes 15-20mins to get into a server and then only to be bounced back out to the DCS main screen. - Frame rates are useless. In single player I was to getting easily 50+fps. Now I'm lucky to see 20-30fps. - Frame rates in servers is even worse. The few I have been able to get into that I usually use and got 30+fps on previously, I am now lucky to be seeing 5-10fps, making multiplayer totally unusable. At least before this update DCS was useable. But now it's not even flyable in single player. Definitely won't be looking at any more purchases for this platform if this is the way ED are heading. Calling this an update is not the right term.
  15. Been unable to see all servers since the 2.5 update came out. Hoped this last update would fix it, but I still have to refresh over and over and over until I see the servers I want. And when I do see them now, it takes 15-20 minutes to get in, if I get in at all and not bounced back the main DCS screen. And as for frame rates, with this last update I'm lucky to get 20-30fps on average in single player where I previously got 50 or 60+. And on a couple of multiplayer servers I usually go on, I am now only getting 5fps where I used to easily get 30 or more. Thus making multiplayer impossible. Won't be considering any further purchases for DCS until this crap gets sorted. What's the point?
