    Does it happen with the correct shutdown procedure too? I think when I don't use the Apu and shut down all at once the rotor never stops. But with the correct procedure the shutdown works.

    I think the advantage is that it regenerates your last parameters, the first time you start it. This seems to be a bit faster as the regenerate button.

    Hi Reflected, I was testing your FoxPlusHandler script from the Marianas mission and I noticed the Shrike name must have changed with the latest update. The event was not firing for the shrike launch, but it works now when AGM-45 is changed to AGM-45A. I hope this helps for the next fix

    Could somebody explain how to get started? I wanted to try what heatblur has written in the jester api section in the F4e manual. https://f4.manuals.heatblur.se/dcs/modding/jester/lua_api.html But I'm struggling with two problems. 1. When I open the mentioned lua files in the jester folder they contain not only plain text. Also with visual studio code I can not open them correctly. I guess it means these are not source files but already compiled lua files? 2. Where do I put my new lua files? Can I just write them with Notepad++ or do I need to compile them first and than add them to the jester folder in mods/f4e?

    This was fixed in today's update!

    I had no time to test this. But the stutters in flight seem to be caused by the F15, with other planes I had no problems.

    From the back seat you should be able to scroll the mfd pages with the coolie hat switch forward/aft as stated in the manual. I testet this in single player, switched to the back seat and set up the mfd page programming as described in the tutorial mission. Scrolling with the buttons on the left and right handgrip is not working. It works only in the front seat.

    Regarding multithreading on my system (i9-12900KF) the latest patch has nothing fixed. I even disabled hyper threading, but I still have mouse lag in menus and mission editor. Even worse are severe stutters in game. These kicked in with the F15 after a flight time of about 25 min on the Syria map and then I had stutters every 1 or 2 seconds.

    @Hawkeye60that would be great to have a working bridge. With the M60 Bridetank I have the problem, that it does not stay unfolded on the suez channel. I trigger the animation with fire at point and its constantly folding/unfolding. Maybe the water is too large and it needs to reach the bank?
  10. LotusDragon
    @Hawkeye60 I added the 'canSwim' property to the M60. Now I can drive or place it in the water. But I can not controll how to unfold the bridge. Is there an option or a command to do this?
  11. LotusDragon
    The M60 bridge tank is great! I will try to modify a copy of it, so that it is floating and can start in an extended state.

    @Coupon4Coffin @Hawkeye60 Thanks for the great answers! I have not made any mods myself so far, but I will try if I can implement these modifications. And I will try out this ponton laying tank now! Thanks a lot for the link.

    This is how it should look like:

    Hello, I tried to recreate some historic battles along the suez channel and I wanted to set up ponton bridges. Any ideas if there are some mods which could help here? So far I have found nothing to create ponton bridges. The only solution I found is to use single helipads. This seems to be the only structure, which I can place on the water. Units can even drive on it, but the AI pathfinding does not work here. Just for amphibious units it is possible that they also drive over the immersed helipads accidentaly, while driving through the water.

    I also have some problems when I start dcs again after ending one session. Then I have strong mouse lag in menus and longer loading times for missions.

    It is important to make at least one change to the reverted profile in the controls settings, otherwise it does not generate a new file. I did not do this for the other planes and was wondering why there are no new mapping files. Just in case somebody has the same problem.
  17. LotusDragon
    @Rudel_chw yes, you are right. It had for some reason created a new mapping file and your solution did the trick. Muchas gracias!
  18. LotusDragon
    For the first time in more than 5 years in dcs I lost the mappings for my Logitech X56 throttle. It seems it reverted to default mappings for all planes! But only the throttle, the stick is fine. I did not changed anything on my system, except for an nvidia update. How could this happen? I'm running the latest open beta with MT and the F-15E. It did not even happen directly after a dcs update, just suddenly after I haven't played for a few days. It would be good to know why before I start remapping everything again.
  19. LotusDragon
    No, I don't use those programs. I tried it again with a different mouse, this time a Logitech G502 wireless. There I adjusted the data rate to the lowest setting, because I had problems with higher rates in DCS some years ago. But the lag is still there, although it is not as strong as with the Alienware mouse.
  20. LotusDragon
    No, for me this was not the case. I did not get weapons and I got the alignment error, as you can see in my track further up in the post.
  21. LotusDragon
    Not really, here only the mouse is affected and when I click something during lag, I have to wait a few seconds before the change is recognised.
  22. LotusDragon
    Since the latest open beta I have very much lag with the mouse in menus and mission editor. It is not constantly lagging, more like few seconds laggy and than normal for some seconds. The game itself runs without lag. I use MT in single player with F15E installed. My mouse is an Alienware 610M wireless, which runs without problems in other games and also before the last update everything worked fine.

    I find this ECS sound a bit annoying too. Maybe it's realistic, but even on low intensity it's louder than the engines. So I usually switch bleed air off, and fly with a hot cockpit It would be nice if the low intensity ECS could be much more quiet

    Same problem for me. Once I got even stuck at thus black screen and only a hard reset helped.

    Hi, I have two problems with SAMs. 1. When I setup a group with SA3 they don't connect to the IADS. I put the SA3 radar as first unit, but in the debugging counter this site doesn't count as SAM. 2. And then I tried to setup a SA2 site, that it goes dark when it looses the connection node. But instead of going dark it goes autonomous. Does anybody know how to solve this?
