Ruy Cabanas Posted January 24, 2024 Posted January 24, 2024 I'm starting a DCS instance via the command line with the following options: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS.exe" --writedir DCS_data --nopause --norender --mission-file "{full path to my mission}" I would like to start it without rendering, as I'm only collecting some data from this instance. However, I cannot use any planes that I've bought. In the logs, I find this error: INFO ASYNCNET (9124): Login success. INFO ASYNCNET (9124): Got auth data. INFO APP (Main): Successfully got authorization data. INFO Dispatcher (Main): Loading installed modules... INFO Scripting (Main): OBSOLETE mount_vfs_sound_path() used in ./CoreMods/aircraft/AJS37/entry.lua INFO Scripting (Main): PLUGINS START------------------------------------------------- WARNING EDCORE (Main): Source coremods/aircraft/av8bna/shapes is already mounted to the same mount /models/.

If I start DCS without the `--norender` option, than it works fine. Also, if I use a free plane (SU-25T), then it also works fine. My suspicion is that the `--norender` option somehow breaks the authentication. This is somewhat confirmed as the game does not generate the `authdata.bin` file with the `--norender` option (`network.vault` is still created). Has someone else observed this? Any known fixes? Versions used APP (Main): DCS/2.8.7.42718 (x86_64; Windows NT 10.0.22621) OS: Windows 11
