Which version of the Gazelle were you guys in? There is a know issue with the Mistral version.

[tom1502]

Sorry, forgot that. SA342M.

We tested swapping from copilot position to all gazelle models and even ka-50, and each time everything was ok, no crash or else.

One thing I didn't get though is when you say "create a new aircraft", but it's just me, I think we got the main idea.

Interesting, we had it happen each time I, as host, tried to launch in a fresh aircraft Windows 10 flashed up to say DCS was not responding.

 

My friend was unable to join me when I was in seat 1. It could have just been something with the mission. We still really enjoyed it and hope to see it progress as it added a new dimension to the Gazelle.

Try creating a fresh missions and see if you can replicate. When new DCS versions come out it''s always best to save your mission in the new version.

[tom1502]

The mission has been redone.

 

The mission has two SA342M's. We were flying together in one without a problem. However, when we went to two separate aircraft we could not switch to seat 2 (in our individual aircraft). The mission also has two SA432L's in. So, we switched to them and had no problem with switching seats. We went back to the SA432M and still could not switch. We could join the same aircraft and have one player in each seat.

 

Interesting, but I do not know if that will be replicated.

 

Still, have to say we really enjoyed the teamwork and the flying. It makes a massive difference to what was an already excellent module.

Ok will keep testing and see if I can replicate it so we can work to resolve the issue.
