F15-E Radar fix

[landstorm]

after the 12-6-2024 the F15-E strikr Eagle's Radar stop working

so here is the slution for that bug

after starting the DCS change the date of your PC to any date before 11-6-2024
and it will work fine
most important change the date after starting DCS or DCS will not work

 

hope that will fix it .. because it worked fine for me

have fun all

That's not a fix, it's a workaround, and it can cause unwanted issues, since other software rely on the correct time and date.

this infers there is some sort of timebomb written into that module. perhaps the devs felt something was going downhill before it became public. i hope this is wrong.

If you Google "DCS Budgie", there is a mod that can fix the F-15E for now. I tried it and it is working. The F-15E is one of my favorite aircraft, being so versatile in both A/A and A/G. Glad it is running again and hope it helps you guys (if you have trouble installing it, read the instructions on the page or ask ChatGPT to assist).

I really hope ED and Razbam can figure out a quick solution.

Unfortunately changing the Time and Date of your PC or installing a mod to get the radar to work is not a long term solution. I not sure but I think some servers will check for mods and not grant you access. Changing the time and date of your PC is just not a good idea since that is used in so many other areas.

Budgie is not affected by Integrity Check, I’ve been on most of the major servers, it makes zero change to the supplied files with the Mudhen or any other part of DCS.

How do I know? I’m the Developer.

Don’t bother asking ChatGPT. People can ask me via PM here or find the discord link in my forum profile and ask on there. I did test ChatGPT and Copilot, Copilot seems to have accurate info, but Copilot didn’t develop Budgie, so it doesn’t know much either.

Sorry for double post!

folks be nice to each other. 

I have hidden some posts on request as it was not the intention of the user to offend anyone. 

thank you

call it what ever you want

it solve the issue and did not cause any other issues !!

[BJ55]

No, I call it for what it is, reading the title I thought "uh, good, RB or ED have released a hotfix", not a suggestion to compromise my online security.

Best regards.

We can agree on that when it comes to changing system date, it's not ideal. 

Here's hoping for an official fix with either the next patch or the one after.

[BJ55]

Yup, even security suites rely on correct system time, i've seen big problems caused by a simple excessive time offset. Your approach to the problem was the only correct solution, since it only interacts with the radar dll.

Great piece of work. Does what it says on the can

If ED is actually going to fix this, they should release a hotfix asap. Instead of making us wait on this MEGA update!
C’mon ED throw us a bone please

[jamie_c]

There is a mod that fixes it, it’s in these forums, it has many users not waiting on an official fix which will come next week at the earliest and hopefully we’re not waiting 6 weeks.
