dores893 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Does the Viper's link16 datalink work in multiplayer? When I'm in a multiplayer server that I know has an AWAACS datalink, I put the viper on mids and nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dundun92 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Make sure your INS is fully aligned down to the 10. Also is this server the 104th perchance? Some of their missions have an AWACS but they have intentionally disabled datalink functions. Eagle Enthusiast, Fresco Fan. Patiently waiting for the F-15E. Clicky F-15C when?

dores893 Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Server was Inferno, and I know their datalink works because I jumped in a Hornet. Might be the INS (although why would INS and datalink be in anyway connected). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 although why would INS and datalink be in anyway connected ...because otherwise the datalink symbol positions would be off and the plane wouldnt be able to do correlations between ownship radar and datalink, thus filling duplicated entries into the datalink network?

Furiz Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 On the Inferno server, DL goes down for some reason then it goes back up etc etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florence201 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 INS needs to be aligned correctly for you to join a network irl. Accurate aircraft position is needed for RTT messages. Crap Nav kit, crap position and you’ll never achieve fine sync with the NTR [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCPanda Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The datalink problem right now is not INS alignment. Sometimes the datalinks works and sometimes it does not, and this happens in the same sever and in the same aircraft and in the same sortie. It is really annoying that when you are doing a mission suddenly all datalink disappears and then for few minutes it reappears again. It was not terrain, awacs or any outside factors. It just switches on and off for no particular reason. And YES, only in multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCPanda Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 On the Inferno server, DL goes down for some reason then it goes back up etc etc... Same thing happened to me multiple times in different servers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCPanda Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 In some severs, however, this problem does not exist. The datalink works very fine. So IDK if this is a sever or mission related issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
