Gizzy Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 (edited) WIN 11, 64RAM GTX 3090 10900K OC HPG2 OpenXR 12 A/C Training mission carrier based. ai as usual got hung up on some launches. On some flights All RMFD buttons inoperative, mouse presses no function, no animation, TM MFD panel same result no function, no result. C130 tanker refuses to allow 'pre-contact' referring A/C as enfield 1-1 and not Snake 1-3 as designated. Next aircraft Snake 1-1 refuelled as normal with correct comms I think. All the time on all flights on screen mouse 'cross' cursor black in colour, pretty useless in the cockpit Other players Stores could not be assigned parameters. On the + side the pitch and throttle control responses for AoA mirror almost exactly what I have seen in RL F18 cockpit cams on recoveries - good job! Gave up the training mission at this stage, miz attached. edit: another AC the TDC slew defective. Last build fine...... just for info... MM-22-feb-24.miz Edited February 22, 2024 by Gizzy
ED Team Lord Vader Posted February 23, 2024 ED Team Posted February 23, 2024 Hi @Gizzy This is very hard to follow just by reading. Instead of the mission file, please post a track so we can see what's going on while you're doing it. I would also suggest you post tracks for each item if possible.

Solution Gizzy Posted February 23, 2024 Author Solution Posted February 23, 2024 @Lord Vader Thank you for coming back so soon, appreciated A Three hour 3 Division carrier op trackfile might just drive you crazy unless I had time stamps for you. On sleeping on the problem I note no one else so far has come up with the black mouse cursor so it seems local. Will do the usual cache clear-outs and driver updates to see if it can be resolved. The Tanker 'enfield 1' responses I now realise is an ED ai incomplete BUG issue that has been present for a long time. The voice ai returns from field atc and tankers were not modified to allow for the full range of callsigns now available to the F18 in the ME. We often run 3-4 division carrier ops and in accordance with WAGs set up of the new F18 datalink features and recently I assigned HAWK, SNAKE, JOKER & DEVIL in the mission editor to each Division all configured correctly as DATALINK Members / Groups to actually make the datalink work as designed - which it does superbly! Downside, no one told the ai for the tankers ad field ATC.... Hence 'enfield 1-1' to every thing - Bummer! (I did read somewhere there is no sound file to support this anyway?) The ai issues on attempting to hook and launch carrier aircraft in MP are a total constant total pain in MP and well known. Launching multiple aircraft is problematic to say the least and as often we are 12 - 16 A/C we limit 2 on the cats at any one time and no movement of other AC until they are launched else the dreaded repeating HOLD POSITION bug drives everyone mental. Not great. If the MFD non functioning buttons reoccur in a small length session I will fire up the track file. p.s. Would a bottle of BLACKBUSH SINGLE MALT help move the carrier a.i. up from stagnation to the front of the queue just send me an address - worth a punt.....
Gizzy Posted February 23, 2024 Author Posted February 23, 2024 @Lord Vader Found the solution to the black cross cursor in VR.... Good Ole @Flappie Quote I found it: it's a DCS ST-only issue. If you use DCS MT, the cursor will be yellow. 1
