Since I updated to 2.9.18.12722, I can't connect to any server anymore. The game is stuck, DCS is using ~20 GB memory and 15 GB GPU memory but does never complete the loading process. My buddy saw that I'm connecting on the server... but that's it, I'm seeing the loading screen with that message. Any ideas? I've repaired the installation, removed all mods, restarted my router, rebooted my PC and cleared the fx and metashader files...

I'd really be interested how things like this can that easily be broken again. It was not working for months I guess and only just recently fixed. For sure not the most critical feature in DCS, but I really can't get my head around how such things break... Especially since there was no functional change in this area.

I'm frequently flying the F-15E and obviously stuff is missing (weapons, systems, ...) but whatever is implemented is absolutely useable and a lot of fun. Only bug which really gets me is that sometimes the "Next" button on the Smart Weapons page doesn't work. Once the other bombs are dropped though, it works again. Overall, I'd say the module has less annoying bugs than other modules.

I still like to fly the F15E, no matter how much is discussed here who is right or wrong. My only concern is that a multi-year long court house visit will result in a lot of $$$ to be paid by one of the two parties. So in either way, whoever wins will put the other one in a lot of financial issues, right?

Just flew one round the F15. The experience really detilerated quickly. Need to launch DCS, then change the Windows date back a week to enjoy the module. If you change the date first, DCS will complain. As all other radars are still working OK, I'm really excitedly waiting what has caused this. As there was no DCS update in between, its really strange.

The "unfinished rubbish" for me still is still offering a lot for an EA module which received only 1 real update: A/A radar which loses less locks than any other module I'm flying A/G radar which looks way better than anything else I own GBU, CBU's, Dumb Bombs, AGM and JDAMs are functioning (there are a few bugs, but working around those you can use all ammunitions) Plenty of systems are already included, the ones which are missing are supposed to come later so I won't bash them for not having them in right now So instead of bashing about ED or RB, I continue to fly the F15E. If ED breaks the plane with an upcoming release beyond useability I'd assume that my view of things will change. So far I've stopped pre-ordering anything and if the F15E should become unflyable I'd expect some kind of refund or compensation. But again another personal opinion, everyone can decide where the threshold is of what is acceptable for a hobby/sim or not.

Understood that it's difficult or impossible to reproduce without a track file. The thing is that I only enjoy flying on large servers. Just wanted to see if other people also have seen it. Then maybe someone wants to do isolated tests. As I haven't read anywhere else that repair is broken, I'd assume it's two cases only so far.

Tried a repair now 3 times, always with the same result. As it was on a larger server (Rotorheads), no track file available. ah64_repair.mp4

Hi Shaka, I was just on the Syrian server flying with the Apache for 50 boring minutes to Al Qusayr, landed, refilled & rearmed and then continued to Sharyat and got killed. The DYN slot at Al Quasyr then however still said that I did not land there before. Anything I need to type in the chat for that? My nickname in the game is VicMackey. The server is super cool, I guess whatever changes you apply, it'll make it even better! Sorry for the English in the Italian forum. Ciao! Shot

Hi there, would it be possible to also add some DYN slots also for the F15E? Thanks! Shot

Had the same or similar issue last week in the F15E. After losing half of a wing, I was no longer visible on the map. I managed to land and repair but did not become visible on the map again. Did not try whether the AI is seeing me or not, but not being visible on the map might be related to that issue?

Thanks for the workaround. Didn't try it yet myself but it seems very reasonable

Hello, another occasion in which I can't repair my AH64. This time because the engines supposedly were still running: Engine indications were all at 0 Before I asked for repair, I made sure the APU is off, cockpit open (this worked before on the same server plenty of times) After I could not repair, I tried all kind of combinations with APU on, door closed, whater... nothing worked. Not being able to repair is really very frustrating as you try to save your life/vehicle, crawl back to a FARP and then ... just to press the respawn button? Last week I had similar issue, I could repair but not start the engine anymore. Isn't it just possible to RESET the whole thing during a repair in a similar fashion to when I'd respawn? This would solve all related issues at once. Link to track file is here: https://www.primusnetz.de/cloud/index.php/s/c9Jvfik10vVb9co Regards, Shot

I just did a flight, got shot at and lost my George in the front seat. After landing at a FARP, I hit repair and was surprised that: 1) I could actually repair (no more of those bugs) 2) A got a new George! When I was just feeling to get on my 2nd trip... I found that I couldn't start the APU. After trying whatever I could there was no chance of getting the APU fired up. Screenshot shows quite some FAIL messages... after the repair?!

Aaaand it happened again to the harrier. Only a single GBU54 is now possible when u also want to carry a sidewinder. I appreciate the realism... But cutting it down from 12 to a third of bombs is not what I had purchased back then.
