Can you send me this .acmi file? Then I'll be able to play around with it on my end so I can be sure of what I'm telling you. :-)

Hey Glow, I wonder if VP-MAN_1_Idle is incorrectly typed - in particular if it is of type Building instead of Infantry? To get around that issue, try this code instead: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <DefaultPropertiesCollection LoadingOrder="0.5"> <DefaultProperties Id="Other.VP-MAN_1_Idle" Base="Core.Default"> <Criteria> <Name>VP-MAN_1_Idle</Name> </Criteria> <Properties> <AdditionalType>Infantry</AdditionalType> <Shape>Core.Infantry.obj</Shape> </Properties> </DefaultProperties> </DefaultPropertiesCollection> Names with Russian characters like VP-URAL AПA should be no problem for Tacview. I double-checked and Tacview can read it. I see that you have put encoding="UTF-8" in your XML which is perfect, but is your text editor set to encode in UTF-8 as well?

That's correct, Advanced is the highest level for an individual user. The Enterprise version is for companies and organizations. The Advanced version has team-oriented features such as Online Debriefing.

Hi Glow, in your case, if I understand correctly, you are not trying to replace an existing definition but simply make VP-MAN_1_Idle appear as an M-16. So this is all that needs to appear in your xml file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <DefaultPropertiesCollection LoadingOrder="0.5"> <DefaultProperties Id="Other.VP-MAN_1_Idle" Base="Other.M-16"> <Criteria> <Name>VP-MAN_1_Idle</Name> </Criteria> </DefaultProperties> </DefaultPropertiesCollection> Let me know if this helps!

Please use Flight Log instead of Event Log for now (further down in the same menu) - Event Log is a work in progress!

Hi, The memory usage should be negligible in this case even with data recording enabled. If you disable data recording it should be even more negligible.

Hi, Make sure you have followed these steps exactly: 1. Delete the correct Export.lua (if you send me your dcs.log I can confirm exactly which file to delete but it sounds like you have the right one) 2. Re-install Tacview (just rerun the installer) If you are flying online, ensure that the server's settings allow telemetry export. (If the server does not allow telemetry export you can still play back the track file generated by DCS World which will record an .acmi file for Tacview.) If it's still not working please send your dcs.log.

Hi, Make sure you have launched Tacview from Steam at least one time because this will run some additional install scripts. If it's still not working after than, please send your dcs.log (found at Saved Games\DCS\Logs\ and your Tacview.log (found in %TEMP% folder)

To minimize the output to the log, you can change your Profiling Period to the maximum of 10 minutes and make sure the Debug Mode is off. But there is no way to disable the output entirely. It is just a debug log. In my opinion there is no information being written to the log that could be considered sensitive. What are your concerns?

Hi, Do you have the object selected (CTRL+CLICK on an object to select it) and are you in External View (F6)?

Normandy and Caucasus elevation maps are automatically included with Tacview - just make sure you have Options -> Terrain -> DCS World enabled. If you are looking for textures, you can download them using Mapview: but they are not the same textures as in the game and there may be some discrepancies.

Hi, Unfortunately no, there is no such filter right now. We hope to add more filters in the future (long-term).

You can zoom the playback control bar to a certain interval by navigating to the beginning or end of the desired interval and clicking Debriefing -> Trim After or Debriefing -> Trim Before. Before an AI unit spawns you can Shift-Click on the greyed-out object in the Selected Object drop-down menu to go to the time at which it spawns. I attached a couple of screenshots to demonstrate.

Yes and yes, check out this video on how to control the flow of time in Tacview:

You'd have to replay in DCS World to generate an .acmi file I do recommend that you replay in real-time. You might be able to get away with replaying at 2x but there might be discrepancies. Also if you do not have the exact same version of DCS installed on your computer as was used during the making of the track file, you may see discrepancies.

We will investigate this and get it rectified as soon as possible!

Looks like a bug in DCS World where the pilot is typed as miscellaneous shrapnel. We will fix our exporter to get around this in an upcoming update.Thanks for letting us know and for providing this data!

Hi Aeolus, Can you please send me you dcs.log?

Hi Crimson, Can you please send me your .acmi file?

Hi Tariq, Thanks for this message because you made us realize that under the conditions you have described, where ["pause_without_clients"] = true, the first client to join the server may not be recorded. We will investigate this issue further and try to fix it in a coming update.

Thanks for sharing your log. I noticed this line: 2020-02-28 00:04:02.750 ALERT EDCORE: Can't execute Lua file C:\Users\mjzd\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta_server\Scripts\Export.lua - can't open 'C:\Users\mjzd\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta_server\Scripts\DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua'Can you please delete this file: C:\Users\mjzd\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta_server\Scripts\Export.lua and reinstall Tacview?

Hi Dutch, Tacview licenses are good for one user on multiple computers or one computer for multiple users. So if you are the only user yes you can activate it on two home computers. However, if you have the Steam version, Steam will not allow two instances to be run at the same time. Right now there is no way to view DCS mission flight plans in Tacview but it is something we plan to try to do in the future.

Thanks for this very interesting flight recording! I looked at it carefully and I think the missiles are just behaving really erratically due to DCS bugs right now. We'll increase the range a bit for now but we also want to wait for all these bugs to settle down before making any major changes.

Sure, we like the idea of using the backtick key below the ESC key. We will include it in the DCS mapping screen in a coming update.

Hi Captain Orso, Indeed radar locks for non-Flaming Cliffs aircraft is a long term goal for us. :) You can set a bookmark by using RAlt + B. We tested the SA-10 SAM's 5V55R missile range ourselves and determined that 27nm is appropriate. Do you have a flight recording showing a lethal hit at much more than 27nm?
