Fix for persistent script errors after update 2.9.18.12722 (resolved)

[Nix Mills]

UPDATE: The issue was resolved with update 2.9.18.12899.

Hi all -

Update 2.9.18.12722 has introduced additional scripting functionality and therefore also new security features. Unfortunately, this means that in every Rampagers missions, whenever getting the option to use the windshield switch to make a radio call, you will get a scripting error.

We're working on a permanent solution. In the meantime, to overcome this problem, you will need to give your DCS permission to call functions in lua scripts. You do this by copy/pasting the following lines into the file Saved Games\DCS\Config\autoexec.cfg

 

if not net then net = {} end
net.allow_unsafe_api = {  -- this defines the secure zones where net.dostring_in() should be called from
  "userhooks",
  "scripting"
}
net.allow_dostring_in = { -- and this defines the scopes that you want to use from net.dostring_in()
  "server",
  "mission"
}

 

You can do this with any text editor. You can also use the attached file.

For more details, and to verify the authenticity, please refer to this link:

And sorry for the inconvenience.

Checked my Saved Games\DCS\Config\autoexec.cfg and there're not autoexec.cfg

You can download the file I attached and place it in your folder then.

Looks like something else. You need to go to the folder Saved Games\DCS\Config and put the file there or edit the existing one.

An update to all Rampagers missions is on its way, which won't crash if you haven't changed your autoexec.cfg and just let you continue with using F10 options.

Yes, as well as to missions 9 and 12 where the new and more realistic blast effects from bombs have changed the outcome. We are testing the fixes now then will submit to ED.
