I have noticed that when you do auto start (win + home) the exterior lights all work. But, if you do a manual cold start. None of the external lights work except for landing and taxi lights. And the switch for nav lights won't stay in the on position. I have not experimented with all the various problems written here. But regardless, external lighting is borked.

DCS has never given me any major issues. But I returned back from vacation last week and I updated dcs. Now multiplayer doesn't work. I am unable to get a server list. I do not get any errors, just the spinning icon at the top while it tries to load servers. I also tried to direct connect via IP. Does not work either. Inside of DCS the news shows and the module store area loads and downloads modules just fine. DCS is not in offline mode. Some things I have tried that has not worked: - Completely deleted dcs game folder and saved game folder. re-downloaded DCS open beta. - Disabled windows firewall, router firewall - DCS Repair option within DCS updater app Any ideas? Is their a log file somewhere that will show whats going on?

Hello everyone. I am new to DCS and learning a lot flying the FA-18. But I have a few questions. 1: When I land at a friendly airport (blue) I cannot refuel, repair, or re-arm. I have tried at multiple locations. Even ones that have many collation fighters parked on the ramp. I have tried turning off engines, opening canopy, even waiving hundred dollar bills. Nobody returns my calls for fueling. It does work perfectly however at my spawn location, or on a carrier. 2: During ground attacks, I use the "tdc depress" function to mark a target in my hud. Then try and slew the cursor directly onto what I want destroyed. It seems no matter what I do, the cursor is never on my target. It seems to always be short or too far. And when I come around for a second pass, the target cursor isn't where I put it. Bug? Doing it wrong? 3: How can I tell if a threat launched on me is radar or IR? 4: I seem to get a "check trim" alarm often after landing and taking off again. I check the FCLES page and all trim numbers look normal. I also depress the t/o trim reset button prior to takeoff. But the warning never seems to go away. Thanks in advance. (using DCS 2.5.6 openbeta)
