It looks like the AGM-84 SLAM-ER is not being properly recorded in multiplayer. On the server tacview it seems to just carry on forward, while on the client of whoever fired the missile, the path is properly recorded and you see the missile connecting with its target.

Hi, this kind of thing happens sometimes on a busy multiplayer server. DCS sometimes fails to correctly export all of the data related to every single thing that is happening on the server side and there may be minor discrepancies.

If you think something more serious than this is going on you can send your files to support@tacview.net and we will take a closer look.

Hey! Is it a faulty setting on my end or is Fuel weight and FF not recorded in Multiplayer (flying the F/A-18 Hornet on Caucasus)?

Also, when I put in the setting "do not switch distance to feet" it still shows the distance between the carrier and me in feet...

 

I'm using the free version of Tacview.  Anyone has any good idea? Thanks

 

Update #1: Offline, Marianas map, Hornet = also no Fuel and FF readings in Tacview

Update #2: Bought a license, still no change re. FF, Fuel weight and distance in nm

Update #3: DCS settings under “Special” seem to be correct, capturing all data for Tacview

Hi,

Unfortunately fuel info is only available on certain aircraft and F/A-18 Hornet is not one of them.

Make sure you have selected Units → Imperial - Aircraft (nm) or (mi) along with Do not switch distance to feet to get the desired result. (The option Units → Imperial - Data Analysis (mi) and (nm) are always in feet.)

Thanks for your reply and your explanation.

In the free version you cannot zoom out that much, how much can you zoom out in the standard version?

Thank you 😄

In the Standard version you can zoom out the same amount as in the free version. To zoom out all the way you need Tacview Advanced. It's a feature called Strategic View. See here for the full breakdown of features per version: https://tacview.fandom.com/wiki/Features

howdy all, is there a way to work out how long i have been flying in mp from scraping the data from a folder of tacview files? i can see the pilots log from within DCS but that doesnt count MP.
