Padonis Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 After the last update, when playing MP, I cannot see other planes with DataLink enabled on the SA screen. They are only visible for a moment after turning on the Datalink, then they disappear permanently. Do others have similar problems?
grifo Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Same here! I was wondering if ED had implemented some new settings for datalink and we didn't used correctly, but i see no news about... Maybe a new bug?
falcon_120 Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Yeah DL is not working in MP. Enviado desde mi ELE-L29 mediante Tapatalk

Shimmergloom667 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Ok, very quick and dirty: Small MP mission, flight of 4 Hornets in MP, Datalink engaged for all, regular settings. Expectation: see flight members as green, circle HAFUs with letters inside to denote position in flight, we only get regular HAFUs, though. E2D in the air.

Swift. Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Can confirm, in a mission we just flew. No one had a fully functional DL. My wingman came up as a surveillance track and the other flight as donors, but to my wingman I came up as a surv track and I dont think the other flight came up at all. The other flight(vipers) didnt have us on link at all. 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2
Shimmergloom667 Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Walked very carefully with the squad through this, and another evening with no Datalink indication of flight members AS flight members on the SA page. Only surv tracks. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

StandingCow Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 We have absolutely been noticing this on MP servers. For a while I couldn't see my wingman on the datalink, but then he and another would pop in for a bit randomly. 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo
VFA41_Lion Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Saw this tonight in MP. Own group of 4 planes did not show up on SA. Not even regular HAFU symbols.
Aarnoman Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Can confirm Datalink issue as well in multiplayer.
StandingCow Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Ok, did some testing on the training server, I assume right now aircraft to aircraft communication isn't working at all (aircraft aren't self reporting)? The only time (toward the end of the track) that me and my flight mate could see each other is when we had the other on radar. Track file: http://www.filedropper.com/tnnrelease-2026-20200928-002300 Edit: The only time we saw one another is when we, or another aircraft had us on radar (from what we could tell). AWACs isn't contributing either, so it seems two pronged, AWACs not reporting D/L contacts and aircraft not self reporting Edited September 28, 2020 by StandingCow 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo
Drona Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Looks like this is a bug.. My squad tested this out and fighter-to-fighter datalink without AWACS is not working. Flight members of the same group are not showing up. EDIT: Would like to add that this is a multiplayer issue and not singleplayer. In singleplayer, flight members show up fine, but in multiplayer, zilch, nada. Edited September 28, 2020 by Kunz

Exactly, same observations, this is also why I added an MP track earlier. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

Drona Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Thanks for the track. Should help ED I guess. Its frustrating when an important feature like this doesn't work.
Adam Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Have been having "Hit and miss" with multiplayer servers also. Worth noting: It seems that it will work sometimes and then when another player joins or leaves the server, it drops out. (Then another player joining or leaving again can cause it to return again), as though it has to do with the number of people being on being odd or even?
Drona Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 It does work for the first few seconds after startup, but then disappears completely. Surprisingly, we can see F-16s on the same coalition, but the F-18s just aren't visible.
Pantera93 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Same problem here. Flight of two hornets in a single MP group, cold start from Tunb with AWACS. Double checked both D\L ON 127, but no "letters" on SA or RDR page, we were visible just when AWACS picked us up. .miz in attachment, .trk from this url: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y65ILpqzPs6yjcAPdbYWEgoAEMIl5_kW/view?usp=sharingThe_Lion_From_The_East.miz - "It's better to reign in hell than to serve in Heaven" Modules: A-4E-C Skyhawk, A-10C II Tank Killer, AJS37 Viggen, AV-8B Harrier, F-14B Tomcat, F-15C Eagle, F-16C Viper, F/A-18C Hornet, MIG-21 Fishbed, MIG-29, SU-27, SU-33 Maps: Caucasus, Nevada, Persian Gulf, Syria, Supercarrier Rig: i7 4790 / Nvidia GTX 1070 Strix / 16GB RAM DDR3 1600 MHz / 256 GB SSD / Windows 10 Setup: ThrustMaster TWCS Throttle, Titanwolf "Vulture" Stick, DelanClip PRO, Home-made universal Cockpit panel
