Jel Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Today i fired up the F15E and noticed the radar refuses to work. AG as well as AA radar, as soon as i SOI the screen, the radar should start to move - it doesn´t. TDC works, changing RWS, TWS, ACQ etc modes works, just the radar scanning doesn´t: no movement of the radar head can be seen. Yes: Radar mode switch is set to "ON" Tested in current stable version 2.9.1.48335, multiplayer and singleplayer, multiple maps - same everywhere. Tested with a buddy on a MP map: HE got the same issues on the F15E. Strange: There was no update to stable version since it worked last time 5 days ago. Worked perfectly then. Any ideas ?

razo+r Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) The radar is working fine for me, though currently using the OB version. But I hadn't had any issues either back when the OB was the same as the stable one. Edited January 1 by razo+r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jel Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 (edited) Nice but i´m using Stable Version 2.9.1.48335 guys I´m not sure where telling me what´s up in current OpenBeta is going to help here. So what did we test: I now did a full file repair - no effect. Tried hot start instead of cold start - no effect. My buddy who has the same issue also uninstalled all planes he recently installed to check for any interference - no effect.

Nickkerkwijk Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 |Do you have any mods installed? I've noticed that some mods can break the game in weird ways so maybe that is your problem [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhaz Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Confirm - A/A radar suddenly inoperational for me as well in F-15E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kercheiz Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Confirmed, the stable version has a bug related to DLL version check happening with the new year. It has been fixed already so OpenBeta is not impacted. We will ask ED to release a patch ASAP, in the mean time you might switch to OB which is more stable overall than 2.9.2 AFAIK 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB is far too unstable on my end so no way i´m gonna switch Fortunately, there are lots of airframes to fly while we´re waiting for a fix. Edited January 2 by Jel When in doubt - climb.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 2 ED Team Share Posted January 2 Hi folks, you will need to be patient as the ED team are currently on a break, when they return from the New Year break we will look to update the stable version of DCS.

ED Team Solution BIGNEWY Posted January 2 ED Team Solution Share Posted January 2 Hi, I have spoken to the team, this issue is already fixed in open beta, so we are just waiting for the stable version to be updated. I do not have a date for that update yet. thank you 2 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Kercheiz Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) 1 hour ago, Jel said: well, "more stable" for most. But as is said "on my end" the OB Version is not and never was. So that´s not an option - waiting for a fix is. That's a misconception on your end and most likely an observer bias. What is "stable" is the version number. By being on stable, you get updates less often, which can be a good thing, for instance if you are a tournament organizer, a server admin, use DCS in a professional environment, have a slow connection and updating is difficult, etc... The program itself, is not more "unstable" (aka bugs) in openbeta, it's even often the opposite as patches come faster. using stable means : I update DCS every about 6 months. openbeta means : I update DCS once a month or more. Nothing else. The "stable" labelling is a bit misleading. If you don't have strong restrictions to run on 2.9.1 (such as relying on a specific server only on stable), there is a strong incentive to go openbeta now.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 2 ED Team Share Posted January 2 I dont want this thread to derail discussing stable open beta, with that said there will always be bugs in DCS and it modules, the complexity of what these teams are working on can not be underestimated and DCS is also constantly evolving. As mentioned we are considering only having one public version of DCS and removing the stable / open beta delivery. When we have more news about that we will let you all know. In closing we apologies for the inconvenience of the current situation, but rest assured a fix has already been made for the above issue and it will come to your build soon. thanks bignewy 2 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
