Well, I was really hoping they would fix the comms bug in this latest patch, as most of my favorite multiplayer missions require, or are greatly enhanced, by AAR. If only we could use EMCON procedures...

Noticed smoother fps in latest patch...kudos to ED for that...but 2 issues need fixing....EOS and g-forces effect not centred on main viewport with multiple screens.

:doh:The update for 1.2.5 DCS world now has bugs, (1) when lounching the flight I setup it well go to windows and says DCS world "Not responding" but after a few seconds it does start ? (2) If I start the flight at the ramp for start-up I will not get the air kills, nor the sea kills but I do get the ground kills ? in the log book (3) As you begain the start-up the mouse pointer is not responding, meaning as you try to turn on a switch it well stop go back to windows and then you need to click the Lt. lower task bar to go back to DCS world and now the mouse well respond as it once did. Some Up-dates can do more harm than good..

What flight? Which module?

[Maverick 53rd]

Any module and any flight. Such as Quick start missions/ Campain missions/ or the traning missions.

I've had this problem since Update 2 with the mouse, as soon as you click on something (map icon or switch/knob) it minimizes DCS, then you have to bring it back up and it's fine.

Silly question time; Have you tried unchecking "Disable Aero Interface" if you haven't already? I seem to remember that being a common issue when that feature was first implemented.

[SkateZilla]

Aero Interface isnt the problem, tried that. I'll look more into this weekend.

[BRooDJeRo]

It might not even have anything to do with DCS at all. (--> local graphics settings/hardware setups )

[Archaic]

So there is no way to track your logbook in multiplayer, either?

 

This just seems like a very basic element to have. Been playing flight sims since F-19 in the late 80s...even that had it.

This file doesn't exist by default. You need create it yourself.

 

Good to know we have to create it ourselves. Any chance of an example of what it should look like? :)

See the file called "graphics_readme.txt" at the location .....DCS World\Config

It expains the new graphics setup.

How to update manually? pushed 'No' by mistake lol.

Hope they fixed the authentication issues? i'm still trying to get the a10c module working. So far i've managed to get the real serial number in the modules page but when a mission is launched it still wants to activate it with no success.

You can find an example here:

As you can see after downloading, this particular autoexec.cfg sets the Max FPS to 30. Edit it to your liking. Also, check out the graphics_readme.txt again to see how to add additional parameters you prefer to override instead of using the in game GUI option settings.

[Meiki]

Thanks!

[Sarge55]

Thanks Milli and S77th-ReOrdain, looks pretty straight forward.

 

Didn't see the graphics_readme.txt in the config folder would have saved some time. :music_whistling:

I found that if you start a mission in the air you will get the kill in your logbook. If you start on the ramp and do the start-up you don't get the kill, don't know why that is... They need to make a patch to fix this patch, don't you think..

Edited August 14, 2013 by Maverick 53rd

[bueno]

so if I start with engine ON and on the landing field the kills work ?

[Maverick 53rd]

It might but what I meant was to start any mission or campain in the air. Like if you build a mission and instead of starting the mission on the ramp where you haft to start the engine and then take off I would not get the kills in my log-book. But if I start the mission in the air I would get the kills, ( In my log-book) Ya I know ? but it worked for me...

[Archaic]

Just verified this. Mission records properly if you start in the air.

[Phantom88]

One more step closer to 1.2.6 and Belsimtek's Mi-8

[Maverick 53rd]

Yea I can't wait to see what 1.2.6. does we might haft to uninstall every thing and start over. I wish they would show us what's in the up-date,that way if we don't need it we could decline it. If it looks great and runs great you just want to leave it alone. Don't get me wrong DCS is by far the best flight sim out there...
