fitness88 Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 After opening the multiplayer screen and seeing all the missions in progress I highlight one of the missions and click join but I can't connect. All I get is a non functioning mission editor and then it changes to a green screen then it closes to desktop. I tried disabling my firewall but that didn't help. Any ideas? Thank you.
fitness88 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) By enabling DCS.exe to have UDP or TCP in/out rule set in the firewall settings I am now able to connect by entering multiplayer through the main program window. What is the name of the .exe that I would have to give the same permissions to if I want to enter multiplayer by directly going through the program menu using the multiplayer shortcut? Thank you.

fitness88 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 Hi There is no MP Shortcut since 1.5 and there never was a separate MP *.exe AFAIK. Ente In the program menu look for a separate multiplayer link, all versions of DCS install with it.
blaueente Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Not anymore. I think its better if u do a fresh reinstall using the provided Downloader Gesendet von meinem SM-P605 mit Tapatalk
will- Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Multiplayer shortcut is no longer in use. I would re enable all the things you did and start the game through the correct .exe, open beta, alpha, etc. Intel i9-9900K 32GB DDR4, RTX 2080tiftw3, Windows 10, 1tb 970 M2, TM Warthog, 4k 144hz HDR g-sync.
fitness88 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 Thank you all. What threw me off was going through the old direct link to MP. I now deleted the firewall rule set for 'enabling DCS.exe to have UDP or TCP in/out rule set in the firewall settings' as I am now able to connect by entering multiplayer through the main program window without the extra rule set. It takes awhile for the MP to go through all the windows so I thought it was frozen. Thanks again.
