I solved my issue thanks to Auntystatic, she led me to examine my router. I plead guilty on this one. A 4g booster was added to the router while i was away. Apparently the router harware supports upnp only on the port the booster was added. Shifted the ethernet port, the issue was solved. Could connect again to any server. Totally my router problem, nothing to do with DCS or Windows. I hope it will help others, perhaps changing the ethernet port of your router will allow you to play again, apparently they are not the same, not in my case. Thanks for your patience!

I checked my firewall rules, some say you have to put it in private net only. I tried that but didn't work, so i deactivated the firewall completely, nothing happened. I tried to see if changing map on the server solved the issue, but no. The server sees me as connected, but i'm on the waiting screen with control only of my cursor and can't use windows keys, shift-tab or ctrl-esc, just call the task manager with ctrl-alt-del and kill the process. The only things happening while i was away the past months were a couple of updates of DCS and a couple of updates from Windows. Most of the users are still playing, so i tried to go back in time with Windows updates, deactivating the recent ones. Nothing again. @EGG i'll try VPN too hoping it will solve it. The mistery continues :)

I had a look at my tcp/udp rules, on the router i have both 10308 and 10309 open for DCS. I'm still at the loading screen, "please wait" and clouds. Same message in the log as the other users, "Dispacther: loadMission Done: Control passed to player", nothing else.

TCP/UDP are router rules isn't it? I'll go check them too, i'll let you know if it worked or not. Thanks a lot for the suggestion!

I was hoping in today update to be able to play again in MP. The wait was killing me so i tried some of the past suggested solutions to this problem. Like, delete the savegame folder, but it didn't work. Can we have a solution? Should we provide logs? (EGG already did but i can do it too if necessary) I'm not using any antivirus software and the firewall allows DCS to go through. I've been trying to solve it since i wrote my first post, a couple of days ago. Many people tried to be helpful but nothing worked. Depression starts to kick in! :(

Same issue here, unfortunately i wasn't playing for a month or two and when back it seemed not working properly anymore. Tried repairing and cleaning to no avail. As the others are suggesting, any help would be much appreciated.

I fixed it just by having a look on the new Steam features. The 27 of Nov. they added: "SteamVR Motion Smoothing". open your SteamVR client - go to properties - video tab- de-activate Motion Smoothing option. I hope it helped, I had no more issues after that. :)

I have the same problem (openBeta) with the same gear and version. I tried on SP and MP, same results. I tried to have proof of it, clipping it with Nvidia, but the result is a perfect uncorrupted video, while on my goggles the video is stuttering exactly as you say. In my case the image corruption happens after the starting menu, while choosing a mission, it gets worse while loading and it's totally present when onboard a plane. I don’t really know if it’s the latest Nvidia Update or the SteamVr one that caused it but I sincerely hope it will be fixed in the next ED update, it's difficult to fly like this :)
