After selecting your coalition, the slotting screen is about 1 frame per minute. Some people without VR can get in by applying a filter, but with VR it is impossible to slot.

I'm in VR, I thought there was a new multiplayer menu for choosing aircrafts? Or is that sever dependent. Just tried online and the doom list of 1200 slots are still all I see.

You now choose coalition and servers can opt-in on dynamic slots (which will solve this probably, as long lists of slots were not optimized in VR).

I tried disabling TacView, but that did not help.

Trying a full repair now.

Repair did not solve it. I made a recording, although I think it is easy to reproduce:

Issue seems to be related to having large amounts of the old version of player slots (non-dynamic).

On the servers I run, the ones with 2,000+ slots have the issue, then ones with ~1,400 do not.

 

I am currently transitioning all old version slots to the new dynamic system as a fix to the "DCS Not responding" issue when entering role select.

After I choose coalition I cant do a thing. Cant pick or scroll slots. I got blue circle spinning. Then settling and as soon as I click on slot I got spinning. I have fast net, did repair and delted shaders, fxo etc and no probs before update.

Yeah, I've spent every hour since the update trying everything. As I only play ECW, I basically have to wait for a patch.

Its not only on ECW. Its the same on all servers. And I dont even use VR. Basically we cant play a sim we like to play and on which we spent a small fortune. Great!

Previously there were very significant stutters when players joined/disconnected/reslotted while the slot selection was open on busy servers like ECW.

Might be related, might not. But whenever the user list refreshed due to a dc/connection etc (you could see it flash as it refreshed the users/spectators), it would be a hell of a spike. Not entirely dissimilar to the server selection screen stuttering as it filtered in new servers.

Not all servers - see my post above. Hopefully it won't take long for either servers owners to transition to the new system or for ED to roll out a patch.

Ok I stand corrected. Its not an issue on all servers. ON enigma cold war and some other. Growling sidewinder is ok. I can scroll and pick a slot. Interesting.

So Eagle Dynamics delayed the patch for “stoppers” or whatever they called it, then released the patch that has caused issues from people playing. Nice work!

ive spent most of the afternoon rebooting and repairing to no avail, so multiplayer is pretty much off the table right now.

Same here


So @PatatOorlog suggested that I remove SuperCarrier from my installed modules, which is crazy, but it worked immediately in joining ECW. @BIGNEWY

We are looking into the issues, there may be an issue with some server scripts like slot blocking, but I will know more hopefully on Monday.

thank you

Might have been coincidence for me.

After three hours of playing the issue came back for me and my squad members.

Same issue for me.

Try it while having Task Manager open and watch the RAM that DCS utilizes.

A few minutes after picking red or blue my DCS RAM will go from 18'000mb all the way down to 500mb. (Syria Map)

Kinda hangs there and won't let you pick a slot.

It is working for me. After I disabled supercarrier module I can pick slots. Its not as fast as on some other servers but its acceptable. No big stoppers.

Also it seems that even if you're lucky on the first slot selection, changing slot during a session will always end up blocked.
