Having the same issue. Have run into cargo ships twice now on low-level attacks. Tried TFR in F15E and it sees them and climbs but that's only good to 100ft. If I want to go lower, I have to turn off TFR as it tries to pull up all the time if not coupled. Here is a link to a Track file of the issue https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ao0tl45yKneTgnrxt6EAwIBzqmNj?e=ppBKpV

KA-50 III will complete the INS from a cold start if it's a single player mission. However, if I start the KA-50 III in multiplayer mode and say select Normal INS and then flick on the INS power the light goes out on the panel and it does not perform the INS but instead displays the HUD as if the INS had completed.

Time zone?

What time zone are you from?

Australian Squadron "Birds of Prey" looking for pilots of all skill levels. We are a friendly squadron that is fairly laid back and realise that real life comes first. We mainly fly the F16, F18 and JF17 plus some Helo's: UH-1 and Apache. Training can be arranged for the F16, JF17 and the F18 as required. We run campaign missions every two weeks and each other week we run training. Currently we have two servers. Our public server and also our training/mission server. A third server will be introduced in the coming week so the training server and mission server can be run on separate machines concurrently. So, if you 'd like to check us out visit our Discord https://discord.gg/DkeeV8KGpK and if you see me online say G'day and ask any questions you like. Also, our servers are up 24/7. The public server has persistence so if it needs to be restarted it will keep the state of the campaign and remember what has been destroyed. Please read the forum rules on the discord chanel before you use the servers. We hope to see you online. Dropbear

Solved our issue sort of. For us game crashes only when we fly on Persian Gulf map. Once we fly other maps no issue. Maybe issue with new weather?

I am also having crashes as are my teammates. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce as it is intermittent. Game seems to crash when we switch from cockpit to map or external view to either map or cockpit. We all have different builds though mine is probably the newest. I fly the Jeff and F16 and it happens in both aircraft. I just saw this post and thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth. If I can reproduce, I'll post here. However, we don't get an error message it just freezes. Only started since last patch and since it's happening to 4 ppl i fly with it can't just be a co-incidence.

G'day Cooler. We are a predominantly F16 squadron with some members that fly the F18 as well the JF17 and F14. Located in Australia we have some members in Australia, Canada, US and New Zealand. Still a relatively small squadron we do training Biweekkly and Campaign missions also biweekly with the rest of the time spent on our public server. If you are interested visit our Discord at https://discord.gg/DkeeV8KGpK. Dropbear Birds of Prey P.S. we need your skills as a skin designer!

Hi Rockethead, Where are you located? We are an Australian squadron that flies mainly the F16. We have pilots from Australia, New Zealand, US and Canada. Happy to bring you up to speed on the F16. We fly training missions biweekly and also Campaign Missions also Biweekly as well as flying on our public server at other times. Our Discord channel can be found here https://discord.gg/DkeeV8KGpK. Jump in and say hi. Dropbear Birds of Prey

I'll check that out cheers.

Gsync costs money? It is free and turned on from the NVIDIA Control Panel. What does cost you money is the monitor to support Gsync (that's the catch). If you don't have a Gsync supported monitor don't turn it on. Vsync only kicks in if you have the occasional screen tear due to 60Hz monitor otherwise leave it off. Though if you have a fast machine then have both on. Doesn't appear to affect my fps (70-90) ...I did find that with Vsync off it was a bit staccato. So, I left it on and its smooth city for me I have this issue also. I am running a NVIDIA 4090 and its runs apparently at 99% Not sure whether that's the game reserving that amount so it doesn't have to call it later or if it's just the single core issue spilling over to the GPU. Either way my GPU runs at 30% and I guess the single core it is using is running at much higher percentage. Should all be fixed when Eagle Dynamics introduce Hyperthreading though it seems they will only be adding one more core. Is that right? If so bring on Vulcan if they are still working on that!

Welcome to Birds of Prey. We are an Australian squadron seeking new recruits from Australia, New Zealand and the Americas as well as Europe. Ideally, we'd like to be able to field pilots in most timeframes. We are a virtual Private Military Company (PMC) that is not aligned with NATO or the East. This allows us to fly whatever platform we desire to complete our tasks without being restricted by Western or Eastern airframes. Currently, as we have only just started, we fly the following airframes: -F16 -JF17 -Mirage 2000 -Mirage F1 CE F18 and the A10. Other airframes that we would like to add are the AH-64 Apache, F14. If you are proficient in any of the former airframes. Training in the airframes we listed as those we currently fly can cover everything from basic skills to advanced skills. Training is bimonthly so you can pick and choose what you want to learn, and dedicated campaign missions will be run also bimonthly. We use SRS and will field Overlord Bot (AWACS and ATC) as well as LoTac once we have enough members to warrant it. Basically, we are a fun group, that currently has just 20+ members, who don't take ourselves too seriously. We like to have fun in a no pressure environment that lends to best learning outcomes. So, what are you waiting for. Click on this invite https://discord.gg/KpfhH3x and join a growing community of virtual pilots.

I agree if you are getting frames between 60-90fps then count yourself as one of the lucky ones. I for one am running a 3090 and an 11th gen i9 with 64GB DDR4 at 3600GHz and I get between 60-90fps because as said before it is only using 1 core (soon to be changed). However, when I look at my game which is running at max settings bar smoke which I set to 1 and it uses 99% of my GPU! I'm displaying it on a SAMSUNG Odyssey LC49G95T 49' curved screen, and I have Gsync and Vsync on with the resolution set to 5120x 1440 and turning off Vsync makes no difference for me. I have them both on because they are supposed to work together.

Thanks Uboat. Using your table and the new cross esection figures i.e. RCS<30,000 and RCS >60,000 i'm now getting 100% hits......thanks for your help and knowledge CHAMPION

If you watch the end of the video, you can see the missile traveling at supersonic speeds and climbing to ridiculous heights. Surely that should be fixed. I'll try small on the Molniya. However, in Multiplayer I've had these missiles miss a lot more than this ship. Can you try them in multiplayer and tell me what happens for you? Thanks for your time and the update. Cheers

OK I've done a lot of testing and here is what I've found (Thanks to Uboats for the table linked above). So C802AK works fine in single player, unfortunately in multiplayer its where it all goes wrong. In single player I can get consistent hits. However, in multiplayer it does not track, and the missile starts to climb and goes supersonic and climbs to altitudes that my Jeff would be jealous. It was a Molniya class vessel, so I selected Medium had the cruise set low, selected popup, locked the ship in Sea1 radar and fired when within 38nm. What else can I do? I think they are bugged in multiplayer and in single player they are not. I've created a link to a video I have made of my attack showing the settings and the result. Sorry tried to Zip it but the file size remains the same (4.5GB). The track file was too big also so the video should be enough for you to see what I mean. Here is the link: https://1drv.ms/v/s!At_nbKtqEqsVhNs_-5Wuml2CelLKVg

Well unfortunately for me and many others they dont work. Tried a custom mission today against a Rezky. Fired in Direct mode after selecting the ship in Sea1 mode on radar. Tried different setting low/medium/ high, skim and popup, CC and EFF and in all cases the missile flies over the target and then proceeds to climb. It travels a further 200nm and reaches altitude of 35K ft or more. Its still broken when will fix be out??

Have had the Jeff for a while now and love it bar one gripe. The C802AK is still broken. It's been over a year now and we have received new weapons for the Jeff but the C802AK still does not lock onto targets small/med/or large. Can we please fix broken weapons before adding new ones. Today I launched two at a frigate with med selected in Coo mode. The missiles happily flew over their target and continued on for a further 200nm at an altitude of up to 35000 ft. I'm guessing this weapon does not fly that far or that high. PLEASE FIX!

Nope it's now 13/11/22 and they still don't work. They won't lock on to ships and they then fly over 200nm at over 30 thousand feet. Useless. When is this fix being done. It's all well and nice to release new airframes however if ED take on the responsibility for the Jeff then they should fix the code.

I am looking for a Viper squadron in Australia to fly with. I have been flying the Viper since it was released. I am fully conversant with all it weapon systems and delivery methods. What I need to improve on is my dogfighting skills, formation flying and refuelling. I have been fling PVE and would really like to experience PvP matches. I'm ex military (Army) and am good at taking instructions and learning new skills. Dropbear

Ok I hope this is the right spot to post the. I love DCS and hate to post negative stuff however there is one thing that drives me nuts above all else. When playing PvE the wingman constantly calls out targets even when he is on the ground taxiing. The problem is that you may have bogies heading your way or targets coming up and you want to give him orders. You cant, because he is still rabbiting on about ground targets. Sure I can turn down the cannel he is on but that doesn't solve the problem of not being able to give him orders until he shuts up. The best way I feel this could be solved would be for Eagle Dynamics to add a radio silence option for the wingman so that he stops calling out and he would then be open to orders. Is there another solution that I am missing?

Well just to add to this I tried the AI F18 from a land based take off. It flew all the way to target with high AOA so not limited to carrier
