Adrian858 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Hey folks, I'm having an issue with a mission for the UH-1H that I made back when it first came out... It's a training mission, and the .miz used to be much smaller, until I added an Ogg. file to spruce things up a bit that added some nice Vietnam Era music. I did this a while back, and ever since, the mission is 46.0 MB and the load time for friends or even myself if someone else hosts the mission is brutal. Since then I've removed the script leading to the Ogg. file, but the mission size remains the same, as do the load times... Any mission that I have previously put that Ogg. file into, has been leading to excessive load times for friends. I've removed the transmitting vehicles, but is there a way to remove the Ogg. file entirely from the mission, or any other fixes that may work? Thanks in advance!

Flagrum Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Re-save the mission without the vehicle under a new name. If that doesn't help, you can open the .MIZ file as a .ZIP file and change it'S contents (i.e. remove the offending ogg) 1
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted October 20, 2014 ED Team Posted October 20, 2014 you can also open the miz file with a tool like 7zip ( or other compressing tools ) You open it as an archive and delete the .ogg files inside 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Grimes Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Audio compression could help bring it down to reasonable levels. The ogg format is good, but you can always go lower. I recommend using the GSM 6.10 audio codec in wav format to save space. I had a mission with 58 small sound files. GSM size on disk: 680 KB OGG size on disk 2000 KB The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.
