terminator363 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Bad news, I just converted to 2.5 release, at least with beta I could enter aerobatic servers now DCS just hangs on the loading screen. Not good so far.. Happy Bug Hunting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Last update (don't know if this is release) and still with the same problems in multiplayer. I was able in 1.5 and in 2.5 I enter but it takes 15min to get in the cockpit while the cockpit is rendering from outside to inside at 1-4 fps. In single player no problem..dcs.zip Edited April 6, 2018 by Japo32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jester2138 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Do we have any timeline regarding a fix for multiplayer? I just spent an hour trying to join Buddy Spike with no success. I even got to the cockpit once but it crashed before I could take off. Extremely frustrating that the product I've spent all this money on has been made unplayable for weeks by a "stable" update. i5 6500, 1070, 16GB DDR4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mguignes Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 OK so I also have a GTX 1070 with 16GB RAM but with an i7... So if you're telling me that this is low graphics settings then this is just insane, because I've been trying to enter servers with only 5 players and also crashes. Also, I do suggest you read all 22 pages of this ongoing forum and tell all the people complaining that they have low graphics settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the thumbnail. I did reply to you back in February. I was and am just the messenger. I didn't write the high requirements, ED did. I'm just trying to provide info that can assist users in getting around the issues. A higher amount of RAM is a way to get around it until ED gets a hold of the situation.

I run on low graphics settings on heavy missions, but the problem persists, because it has to do with loading the map and mission file, not your graphics settings. ED's changing requirements are a deflection, not a solution, and are what caused me to cancel my Hornet pre-order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leysard Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I'm also unable to login to a server except the Just Dogfight one. I do not understand. Why would that server work and not any other one ?

TheLocalMIlitia Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) First time I've played DCS in about 1.5 years. Booted it up after installing it and my FPS stutters, my game looks terrible even on high settings and I can't connect to any multiplayer servers - even low pops. What's odd is the last time I played my game ran in the high 50-60s at medium-high quality and connecting took no longer than 2 minutes. It was much smoother and much better looking too. What's gone wrong here? My settings used to be like this: Now even on low settings I get horrible lag spikes.

We received a new, "improved" engine. God forbid we stayed at 1.5.8 which worked fantastically and looked great too... Are there old versions we can download?

TheLocalMIlitia Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 1.5.8 installed. 60fps+ on High. It looks so much better than 2.5 and no stutters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roidman Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 I am also experiencing the same issues as almost everyone on this thread. However in the past few days I started getting a new Pop-up window during the log on process "DCS Crash,allow DCS to gather additional info...." Like others I have completely uninstalled/reinstalled the program. Noticed major issues AFTER the 2.5 release, things only getting worse. Frustration cup is now flowing over.
