Using TMS right to cycle between contacts on HSD when zoomed in to EXP1/EXP2 causes game to freeze


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

This occured to me at first on a multiplayer server, but I also managed to reproduce it on a singleplayer mission.

  1. Select HSD as SOI
  2. Hover over any contact and select it with TMS up
  3. Use FoV select button to zoom in on HSD
  4. Press TMS right to cycle to next contact
  5. Game freezes

Hey @Hofftari

What you are trying to do is select PDLT, a Primary Data Link Track to become a symbol on the HUD/HMD. 

I've followed your steps in the "Free Flight" F-16C Instant Action mission, used EXP1 and EXP2, TMS up to select one PDLT then cycle using TMS Right, no freeze or crash on my side. Was this on multiplayer? Was this on a scripted mission?

The usual suggestions is that you disable any mods you may have installed and try again.
If you don't have any, please run a repair or cleanup (available on your launcher). 

Let us know if the problem persists.

I tried it with the Free Flight instant action, and it works without issues there. But when I run my own "basic" mission on where I have just added some airplanes, tankers, awacs and other fairly basic stuff, my game freezes when I try this. I have repaired my game and it didn't help.

Thought that my old mission might have something that is broken, so I created a new mission from scratch on the editor and added a couple of AI planes so I could select them via the HSD. Did the same thing, selected one plane, zoomed in to EXP1 and then pressed tms right. Instant freeze. I've attached the mission that I created.

@Lord Vader where you able to reproduce this? Like I said, it works for me as well if I do free flight instant action, but when I start a singleplayer mission or go to a multiplayer server, the game freezes when I do this.
