Toddieie Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 So...updated my Steam DCS 2.7 to Steam Beta 2.8. In 2.7...IFLOLS only worked when using Missions created by DCS. I regularly create Missions using 2.7 Mission Editor with Super Carrier and all the Terrains. My Missions' Super Carrier IFLOLS does not work...VERY frustrating in VR...as I would like to Not use ICLS when Carrier landing. After updating to DCS 2.8 Beta in Steam...IFLOLS worked on 2 Missions I created... Graphics are better... Carrier radio communications were more in depth...and creative...using Easy Comms...overall feel of DCS was improved. I tried using one of my 2.7 created missions in new Steam 2.8 Beta...no IFLOLS...communication went back to what it was before. Created 2 new Missions...now...ALL my Super Carrier Missions created in 2.8 Beta have reverted back to 2.7 no IFLOLS and Comms.... I also have DCS 2.8 Open Beta on same drive as Steam DCS 2.8 Beta and 2.7 Question is...are my DCS files getting mangled by using different Mission Editors...or...by having different versions on same hard drive? Fairly new player...almost a year of mostly F-18 and Huey. VR is OUTSTANDING in DCS! Thanks.
Solution Toddieie Posted November 13, 2022 Author Solution Posted November 13, 2022 So...no one on here answered my question...SOLVED...I deleted ALL my DCS and STEAM DCS installations...even my Missions that I spent hours on. Rebooted...then installed DCS OPEN BETA...more graphical effects...AND...IFLOLS was back!! Even the pop up window in cockpit! Which I COUNT ON in VR...since DCS is lagging in VR. HOWEVER...with 2.8 DCS...VR...is worse than below average.... After reading forums...seems more graphical effects means more CPU and GPU usage. So I deleted DCS OPEN BETA. Installed STEAM DCS 2.7...EVERYTHING worked....and program runs FASTER. MORAL of the story....testing...tweaking...deleting saved games folder....doesnt work. To save MY STRESS DETRIMATE....when something fails and I cant figure it out..on MY OWN...delete and re install. Been working on this for over 3 mos...countless hours...took me 2 HOURS to delete and re install! Missions in all Regions will take about 3 or 4 days to rebuild. After all the Money and Time I have invested in this Game....no intention of giving up! Hope the Eagle Dynamics Team dont get burned out and give up either!
