I would agree if we would talk about normal game files, but their file encryption is nothing usual. I dont know any another game that caused so many av detections. Most people running the dcs dedicated server stuff, run this stuff on root server reachable from the internet. It is indeed not a great idea to do that.

I can confirm that on my windows server 2022. Iam on the newest av files from windows defender. i Guess ED still need to whitelist them or the whitelist process is not done yet.

Great idea to exclude the steamapp downloading folder: Another one

so after some testing around, putting the entire dedicated server on a hdd made zero difference for my tiny server.

I disabled the module and wait for the next update. If you really like to fly the f14 you need to tell your Anti Virus to ignore this file/directory, but that punches a hole into your pc security. We already saw infected files in steam mods and games, so its not impossible that this accident may happen to ed as well and then there is nothing that blocks stuff going on your system.

So this is the reason why my jdams all excactly land on the same position next to my target and hit nothing? If i slave the tgp to the steerpoint i can see how its not on the target.

there is still some access on the drive after the map got loaded: Maybe i upgrade my gaming pc ssd and add the spare 1tb ssd to this system later. I hope its enough in the meantime for me and my 3-4 buddies playing the game.

Hello all, i know SSD for the game itself is a must, but whats about the dedicated server? I dont mind longer Server loading times, i just fear strange lags cause of the slower drive. Thanks for the feedback!

Yesterday my heatblurcommon.dll still got flagged by windows defender, but with the ed update today this issue is gone. I can fully install the f14 module without any false av detections.

That might be the case, additionally strange that the spawn works if i press the icons on the map. Very confusing

Hello all, i made a simple mission for me and my friend to learn heli flying. At first the mission worked fine on my server. But after adding some objects to the map we cannot longer select a slot with the slot selection menu in multiplayer. I still can select my helicopter by pressing the icon of the helicopter on the map, but the menu does not work. I can click it and nothing happens. I created a new map with the same helicopter and it worked again. Any suggestion why this mission does not work any longer? Thanks for help! EDIT: I found the solution, i placed some ENEMY ground vehicles on the same airport. I dont know why but this seems to disable the multiplayer slot selection tool. I dont know why it still works in SP/Mission Editor or why its still possible to select a slot by pressing the helicopter icon on the map Tut_Helicopter_Basic_Movement001.miz

During my update process this file got flagged: There is either a new system required that not likes to trigger AVs that much, or a new person needs to be hired just to work on the av whitelist process

how do i select the ramp i want to use for the spawn? Can i disable ramps from beeing used?

During updating DCS windows defender flagged this file: I guess its a false posetiv again? Someone else got this file flagged? Virustotal Report: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/e7bc9ece4576479ec617b84b400577935dc7ace3a2610e3d1c5587fdc5ae2511 Can someone confirm the file hashes? (DCS\bin\inter.dll) -> MD5 e05cee37a3d3693786df972234c18a44 SHA-1 2d0d018d670c8305b35d6992a67330a56f7a0db3 SHA-256 e7bc9ece4576479ec617b84b400577935dc7ace3a2610e3d1c5587fdc5ae2511 EDIT: It seems like my windows defender wasnt up-to-date. After updating this file no longer gets blocked. So if you get this file marked as well update Windows Defender!

Seems like it has been fixed (tried it today), i can start the game with these modules and updating them without freaking out windows defender.

Ok, then i will try different tools to improve my situation. Thank you!

That gives me an error:

Yeah you are right. I additionally can setup some speed profiles in my ubiquiti dream machine router. But i was hoping for some tiny hidden config files somewhere in the dcs folder so that i simple can edit them. There are no? However thank you!

Hello all, I wish to limit the speed of the dcs standalone download tool. I have a good fibre connection, but asap i start an update it goes 100% and other people in my network cant watch youtube videos anymore because its downloading so fast Can i somehow limit the download speed? Thanks for help!

@Dondy Ok, sry some people told me that this was already fixed (And the closed threat made me belive that). So i thought i had another different issue.

Hi, i just wanted to create the same topic here. I have issues useing gps bombs like you too. I put the waypoint on the target, but ingame my bombs hit nothing because i have this drift explained above. I have this issues since weeks, currently i fix this by using a tgp to bring my plane back on the target. And yes, i have the correct altitude in the wp setting. i have no issues with these kind of bomb with the f18. I created the mission fresh on marinas. i attached mission and track file f16bombing.trk jdamtest.miz

@Tom Pthanks for the mission, this will help me getting used to the ah-64 a lot. I noticed these landing pads, i would like to know how to place them in mission editor. I loaded up the map but was not able to find any object on the map that could tell me how to make such an landing pad, can you give me a hint here? Thanks! EDIT: Nevermind, found them under objects heliports. However, again thanks for this training map!

But why its only the harrier and f15? Since i disabled and removed both modules i did not got any futher windows defender messages. f18, f16, ah64 or a10 no issues.

I never did Stored Alignment during these tests. I did either full or hot start in air.

Hello all, i wanted to learn jdams, so i put a target on my map, put my f16 on the map, added the bombs and a waypoint on my desired target. But my bombs never hit the target. They always hit the same spot next to the target. so i put a tgp on my plane to check where he looks and it seems like somehow my plane does not match with the waypoint. Any ideas what iam doing wrong? I started the mission cold on ground and in air. FULL INS Alignment. And yes i entered correct elevation in the wp settings and i checked it in my plane they match! Is this a bug or did i something wrong? Thanks for help! EDIT1: I did a small test with the f18, here it works perfectly.
