investigating Seven F-16's Crashed to Desktop in Liberation at Same Exact Moment

[Whiskey11]

Greeting ED and the F-16 team!  Today, 06 September 2022, I was playing a Liberation Campaign with the 107th JAS.  There were EIGHT F-16's in the mission.  Four were on CAP, the remaining four were tasked with SEAD/DEAD.  During the Mission, SEVEN of the F-16's had hard crash to desktop with ED Error Reporting popup.  The seven crashed at EXACTLY the same moment during the mission.  The eighth was able to finish the mission and land.

I've attached the DCS Crash logs... myself and another F-16 pilot had the same crash after F-16C.dll was accessed.

The track file is 43mb and can't be attached.... =\ I'll gladly send the track file via a Google Drive link upon request.

The only thing we can think of is the surviving F-16 tried sending a datalink mark point to the other SEAD/DEAD F-16.

 

As for my PC Specs:
-9900k OC'd to 5GHz
-3090ti
-32gb of DDR4 PC3400 memory
-DCS is installed on an SSD

I'm playing in VR (HP Reverb G2).

We tried "repeating" this with just two Vipers, but were unable to, at least with the whole thing being suspected datalink mark point transmission.

Hi Whisky11

if possible we would like the track replay, however liberation track replays do not always play ball and makes it even more likely the track replay will be unusable. 

We will watch for this issue and I will make the team aware. 

thanks

Hi, I have no track to offer, but during a closed multiplayer session 2 months ago i singlehandedly shot down 11 F-16 all at the same time, just by sharing a markpoint. Sadly they were on my side, so no "double ace in a day" badge

There might be some issues on the receiving end of data link transmission.

Thanks 

We have a MP closed tester session that will try to reproduce this in the near future. 

thanks

Hey BIGNEWY, was there anything in the track file which showed a set of circumstances we can test on our end to get shorter tracks?  Or any other way we can help reproduce this and narrow it down?

shorter tracks to replicate may help for sure, if you have them please add them, with the dcs log.  Thanks

Clear.

Did the track I send you show a specific set of circumstances which caused the crash?
