Connection Timed Out on Joining Server


Recommended Posts

I've been having an issue with server timeouts in the latest few versions of DCS upon joining multiplayer servers.

 

The servers appear correctly on the server list, but after clicking 'Join' the loading screen appears with no loading bar and after about 2 to 3 minutes it goes back to the server browser with the message 'Connection Timed Out'. This seems to affect any server, including servers being hosted by friends.

 

I have tried disabling my AV and firewall but it seems to have no effect. I have also tried a full clean install of DCS including cleaning up the registry entries, deleting the 'DCS' folder in 'Saved Games' and also running the game without any installed modules on the lowest settings, but the problem still remains.

 

I have attached the log files for my last attempt to join a multiplayer server.

 

Hopefully this can be fixed soon!

Hi

 

Multiplayer can be very demanding on your system, especially in busy servers.

 

your system is below minimum specification, which is causing the time out during the load

We have some Multiplayer timeout bugs reported in our system,

 

if you can please attach your whole logs folder zipped after a failed attempt, it will help ED check against the reported issues

 

A guide for logs is in my signature
