Do all custom mission take forever to load? My friend and I can connect to each other and play all of the stock DCS missions. However, when we try to play any custom mission and I try to connect it just sits on LOADING MISSION. We've tried more than one custom mission and it's the same result every time. Even if we both have the custom mission already installed. PLEASE HELP ! ! !

 

Thanks!!!!

Look at the mission file size as JG14 says. Anything beyond 2mb is not really suitable for multiplay. Beyond 2mb players often assume game has locked up. Also despite both of you having the mission installed, when your friend joins he will still DL the map into his temp folder. This is problem with the game that I hope will be resolved when patched. Generally for multiplay maps on my server I edit out the custom audio in order to reduce file size.

You can monitor your upload to your friend by opening the task manager and checking the network tracffic.

Thanks for the replies guys. It seems that we just weren't waiting enough and the missions may have been too big. One of them had music in it just like JG14 said. We got it working tonight though, thanks for the help!
