WarHog1071 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Hey all, After the last update the A-10 has had some bugs it seems. Bugs: On startup there are errors including: IFFCC fail CADC fail GCAS fail Left Gen fail Hud fail This seems to be online only in hot and cold started planes. This was with me and 2 others in my group Edited September 18, 2021 by WarHog1071 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recoil16 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I have started the A-10 multiple times in the recent update and haven't seen this issue. Could you provide a short track showing the issue? 1 Everybody said: "That's impossible!" Then someone came along who didn't know that and just did it.

WarHog1071 Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 Hey guys, Here are 2 tracks. One me and the other from one of the other A-10c https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cw-LXzVbCr4MSyeliLNckV5btGaxhUzN/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XwLJ0RxtEufI2owjRMOCVeeTwoU-XaJI/view?usp=sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuka Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I watched the first track until the point where the CDU was powered down for the 2nd time. The main issue is that you are not following correct startup procedures, and making plenty of errors. I never saw a "load all" on DTC, there was no switch to EGI,... and many more errors. I advise you to study the manual for correct startup procedures of the jet. Also, the 476vFG has an excellent startup procedure for the Hog: 476th vFG A-10 II Flight Crew Checklist 01OCT20 - Downloads - 476th Virtual Fighter Group (476vfightergroup.com) 1 Windows 11 | i9 12900KF | 64GB DDR4 | RTX 3090 | TM Warthog HOTAS | Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals | TM MFDs + Lilliput 8" | TIR5 Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarHog1071 Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 If you watch There was no load all because the errors was on the cdu which stop the process. Then you will notice a left gen fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yurgon Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I watched both tracks and, in both of them, observed GCAS and LASTE failures showing on the caution light panel during startup for no apparent reason, and an IFFCC AV3 FAIL (or was it "FAILURE"?) advisory on both MFCDs. With MP tracks, it seems one can't take control during the replay in order to test a few things, and the proper corrective actions for these failures were never taken in the first track. In the second track, it seems all faults were cleared and the aircraft looked about ready to taxi, but then the client slot was changed, and I didn't feel like watching all that all over again. While there doesn't seem to be any pilot input to cause these failures, I would still advise, and rather strongly, to follow a proper checklist. With the state of track replays, these tracks unfortunately don't seem to provide too much info as far as I can tell; tracks from VR are entirely vomit inducing to watch on 2D, and with the 2nd track some head tracking issues also made it pretty tough to keep up with what's happening. On the current stable branch, I have not observed any of these failures, but I haven't flown the A-10C in the OpenBeta lately. If you could try to replicate these problems in single player, that would be most helpful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederf Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I noticed at least one of the tracks used ground power. Switching seamlessly from ground power to onboard power is not a given. Those are not fun to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a similar issue, I would check the procedures used and if you're still confident there is a bug open a separate thread, complete with a short track showing the problem.

User error in all team planes (A10, F18, JF17)?? In two different games after check all mission setup?? UHF radios in A10 completely gone (shutoff) but VHF still operative? Never happened before last update and we didn't change nothing. I tried rearm fuses, CICU, reseting systems, nothing changed after fails. When on A10 got one fail, few seconds later the second A10 got the same fail. Game looks broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, the issue in this thread was deemed to be user error by multiple people who watched the tracks provided and who I believe to be competent in the ways of the A-10C to make that judgement. If you have a similar issue that you are positive is a bug, please create a separate thread. If other aircraft types are also affected, please also create threads for the specific issues they face in the other modules' respective sub-forums. Further litigating in this thread isn't productive. Everybody said: "That's impossible!" Then someone came along who didn't know that and just did it.

Seems then isn't the airplane module but the general environment. We will see next weeks of it goes. Meanwhile, DCS in multiplayer its in troubble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katalan Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 We will try to repeat the same game but with all airplanes full start from load. And then we will chech if fail occurs during start-up procedures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yurgon Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I'm not sure the original problem was user error. There was certainly a lack of following checklists, but those errors probably shouldn't have appeared anyway. At least I've never noticed them, with or without checklist. However, more tracks are always helpful in order to narrow this thing down. The shorter, the better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fly the A-10C (both of them, mostly the A-10C II) almost once every week in MP, sometimes more often, together with a handful of other guys, and we never, ever run into this problem. In other words, I'm not aware of any way to reproduce this problem, and OP never got around to providing a short single player track (or a short and concise MP track for that matter). So, if you could recreate the problem in singleplayer, that would be amazing! If you can't, please try to reproduce it in a short and concise multiplayer track and share that track with us. That will really help to figure out what's going on here, and if it's user error (including how to avoid it) or a bug in DCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
