I have repeated attempts to have my Flight attack an object, first as an Anti-Ship attack....(Ship).....and also as a primary objective. In each case the AI will drop their bombs, but although they run in to attack with their remaining weapons they do not release their rockets....even when specifically requested to engage with Rockets. I suspect the AI programming has not be completed to enable their use of their new rocket capability.

I just confirmed the bug is still there in the Channel map on a quick mission p-47 intercepting FW-190A8s. I would hope the community would receive a comprehensive response from ED as to what the status of this bug fix is....what steps have been taken to address it, and what remains. As others have noted....this kills immersivenes and considering how long it has existed one has to wonder why more effective resources have not been applied to the problem....it is likely reducing sales of modules and interest in DCS World.

This is an extremely significant Bug. It occurs on all maps, in cockpit or external views, and seems not to be improved by Nvidia driver settings or internal DCS graphic settings. I thought it might be occurring when the graphics card was at maximum usage, but it occurs on my Nvidia 1070 even when only half of video memory is being use. I am using Windows 7, 16 Gigs of RAM. This does not happen outside of DCS....nor is it improved by going back to a default Video card clock speed.

Landing approach to Al Assad Airport in the Mig 21 starts off at 60 FPS and steadily drops to single digits. I tried this with a Mig 29 and there was no reduction in FPS. I have no clue why this happens in the Mig 21 and I have not tried to see if the poor performance occurs in other modules. See mission attached Mig21 Al Assad Landing Approach from the East.miz

I had the same problem, but I removed most mods including the Edge 340. That fixed it. You can copy your Mod folder to the desktop as a backup. Then eliminate one by one the Mods in Aircraft and Tech that may be suspect. That is how I determined the most likely culprit. PS...I did a repair prior to trying this, with no ill effects.

Debrief Dead Yes, same problem for me so far in all my F14 missions.

It could be that your anti virus program blocked this file from being used....that is what happened to me....until I gave it explicit instructions to allow using the file, and made sure to have it list the DCS World directory as an exception to the scanning process.

Bit Defender Issue I had this problem also, but I checked my Exception settings in Bit Defender, and added my Eagle Dynamics directories...and told Bit Defender to allow for the movement of the particular .dll file it was flagging. I then did a repair, and all is fine now.

Black Shark 2 Key Error I reported the same issue above, but found this link about replacing the key by using the BS1 Key. Luckily, I still have my boxed CD of BS1 with the original key information on the manual.' So I followed the instructions and amazingly, I was advised upon starting DCS Beta again, in the module manager, that I now could install BS2. I did so, and now I have the correct key and everything works. I also did the same procedure for the stable version, and it too is now working with the new key for BS2. Clearly, the instructions on how to handle this situation could have been part of the Update Notes. But, glad it is all OK now.

Same problem reported In The installation bug section..it also is ocurring to me

Black Shark 2 Key Error I am asked to supply the serial number....the key is already shown in the field, I hit bind...but it does not enable BS 2 to show up as one of my modules. I had previously rec'd the key listed to reflect my upgrade of BS 1 to BS 2. Happens each time I load the game.

Today my Hotas Warthog Joystick is no longer working. It is a relative new joystick and I think the problem is some new software conflict. I re-installed the driver, which was done successfully per the Thrustmaster installer, and I am using the latest installation package. When I troubleshoot this via windows 7 device settings, I get the message "Thrustmaster HD Filter 01 doesn't have a driver" I have tried several times to re-install the drivers with the same result. I even copied my old drivers back in to the Thrustmaster directory from a backup, with no improvement. Everything was fine a few days ago. I shut my machine down for a couple of days...started it up today and now I am unable to use the joystick. Anyone have any suggestions? Appreciate any help.

Things Re sharper With sharpening set to max I can easily read the warning messages on the f14 fuselage...so for me this setting works with no drop in fps.

Does it Make a Difference I have enabled it but I have no clue if it really changes anything. Perhaps ED will comment soon as to its effect and optimal setting if it does work with DCS.

Confirm with Warthog Controllers, Max engine never goes above 40%....and control indicator shows after burner position fulling engage on throttle axis....AB flame appears on F2 view. This should be easy to confirm by the developers by now.

Has anyone else experienced this

I have the Hotas Warthog...and I set up the Bomb Pickle button on the HW stick as button 2, as usual...for bomb releases. My results was that the bombs rarely dropped. Then I discovered that the space button on the keyboard which fires the guns also dropped the bombs....I had the fire guns of course mapped to my HW trigger...and pressing the trigger dropped the bombs. I could not find this as a reported bug....but at least for me it is. What can I do to fix this?...so that the HW button 2 drops the bombs , not the space key or the HW trigger.

Just tested with the Hotfix mentioned above, and now it works correctly...no CTD. So it was a Nvidia issue after all.

I employed the MK-20 today in missions with the FA-18C and the F-14B. In every case as the bomb was about to explode - release its bomb-lets...DCS crashed. I have sent the crash reports in thru the crash report utility. I don't see anything posted about this problem...and this is happening prior to and after today's patch. I did upgrade my NVIDIA drivers to the latest drivers the other day....but I don't see how that would produce this problem.

In the current beta version the realistic option actually works easier for me, I am using the Hotas Warthog, assigning a TDC down to a button on the stick, and the movement of the cross hair to a hat button on my Hotas Warthog throttle. However, I agree that today's patch is not the same version as what Wags used in his recent video.

How to Kill a Ship AGM-65E My FAC was supposed to lase armor on a pier in the Persian Gulf Map. I had a sub right off the pier. As I launched my Mavs the sub moved out a bit from the pier. Seems like the laser which was aiming at the armor was now hitting the sub. I sank the sub with 4 Mavs. Although I am pleased with the outcome, I could not get the FAC to lase the sub even when it was indicated as the target group. Am I wrong that DCS is currently not able to have a AI FAC actually lase a ship object? Video is here:

Thanks for confirming the issue....I agree, hopefully it will be addressed in the near future, but yes, the mouse works except for having to take my hand off the stick to get to it...since I use my right hand for both mouse and stick.

When I assign the dispense switch to my throttle, the assignment works, however, when I actually try to use it, the dispense button moves up and once I release pressure on the assigned throttle button the dispense key moves back to its off position. If however, I use the mouse to select the dispense button, the button stays in the on position, and I can then dispense a flare or chaff. So something which is beyond my knowledge, prevents the key assignment to the throttle button from being persistent. Suspect a minor change to a lua file can fix this, but I don't know how to do it. But thankfully, the mouse click works. Master Arm is on when I try this.

I have 1.5 ssaa, no msaa, but I turned on FXAA...this gives me the best result.
