piolin23000 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Fat Creason, it's very easy, just make a hard landing on carrier or pull up the stick close to wires on carrier and the engines hit the deck and the engine right turn off, then try to start again and not start, make a repair wait 170 sec and then start again and not have power around the world in DCS to make start engine right.....

grant977 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I have also had this, and a new wrinkle once after a clean restart where the right engine would light off spool up respond to throttle then flame out. You could restart it every time and it would do the same. Only happen ounce though. I reinstalled the latest patch and haven’t seem it again.

QuiGon Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Just had this bug again. Can't send trackfile, because it happened on a busy blue flag server after more than 2 hours of playing :/ Same problem: Right engine didn't want to spool up after we got shot down, ejected and respawned. We flew multicrew. It's the first time I've had this bug in the past 2-3 months, even though I flew the Tomcat a lot meanwhile, including getting shot down and ejecting. Just a loose idea, but maybe it makes a difference who initiated the ejection (pilot/rio). Usally I (RIO) initiate our ejection but I can't remember if this was the case here too or if my pilot beat me to it this time.

Tj1376 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) ok, thanks, we will take a second look. Maybe this is helpful? I just fired up the Cat for the first time since release. Ran into this bug tonight fumbling trying to remember how to fire the Phoenix. Got shot down.. Spent probably 20 mins trying to figure out what I was doing in my start sequence and finally found this thread. In my log file, I notice the following lines after being hit: 2019-08-14 02:45:09.969 ERROR SOUND: invalid source_params(F14_PILOT_COCKPIT:foley\damage_impact): gain 2019-08-14 02:45:09.969 ERROR SOUND: invalid source_params(F14_PILOT_COCKPIT:foley\damage_missileimpact): gain 2019-08-14 02:45:10.115 ERROR DX11BACKEND: Failed assert `false && "unknown format"` at Projects\render\dx11backend_win8\Source\DX11Utils.cpp:39 2019-08-14 02:45:10.115 WARNING DX11BACKEND: Texture 'mods/aircraft/f14/cockpit/resources/indicationtextures/hb_vdi_broken.dds' has unknown format: 95 And then five seconds later I black out and restart the mission (where I cant get the right engine to spool up.) I'll host the miz and log files in a drive folder and edit this thread with the files. Maybe they will help you find the bug? Of course I didnt save the tracks, and because it wasnt multiplayer, they didnt save automagically. But log file can be found here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1KVmul7Fck82eBsCI1KQJS2bAMHrKeMbw TJ1376 Edited August 14, 2019 by Tj1376 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMike Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Thank you, I forwarded it to Fat Creason so he can take a look. The error msgs from the log however seem unrelated (in my uneducated opinion).

Reticuli Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Auto start is a whole different story and probably totally unreleated to the issue discussed here. Totally unrelated and it just so happens to be the right engine not spooling up? Possibly unrelated, but possibly related. Isn't auto start just a script or macro that runs of all the right buttons done in order with the appropriate timing? I can hear them all slowly switching and it takes a few minutes. If it's just a script or macro, start up and re-spawn bugs should occur identically with both manual and auto start.

Biggus Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I've had one of these this OB patch too. Online, land-based start, right engine fails to start and only closing the game and restarting it brings it back. It certainly hasn't been as common for me as it was a few months ago. I don't use auto-start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMike Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 We introduced what we thought was a fix a while ago, which at least seems to have reduced it a lot, but we are still looking for a solution that fixes it entirely.

I don't use auto-start.I can confirm the bug is back. After being shot down then respawn the right engine didnt start no matter I tried. Exit DCS the only thing could bring it back to normal.

sniporbob Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I had this bug happen to me the other day. Got teamkilled by a mirage on the Hoggit GAW server, respawned and couldn't start the right engine. I just got the tomcat so I thought perhaps I forgot the startup sequence. Exited the server and launched the cold start training. The right engine still wouldn't start, although the left started fine. The only fix was to restart the game, at which point the training mission and multiplayer worked properly again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiGon Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 This is pretty much the most odd bug I have ever seen in DCS. @HB: If you ever find out what causes this bug, I would really appreciate if you could share some insights to it, as I'm really curious what can cause such odd behaviour :) Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

fat creason Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 This is a very tough one to fix since it is so rare, and therefore hard to reproduce. I’ve never experienced it, but I think it’s related to the engine thinking no fuel is available for some reason.

Mods-o_joy Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Its just happened to me a few minutes ago on my squadrons Persian Gulf Sandbox, It was a night flight, radar was bugging out and would not display a Mig21 within pissing distance of my aircraft, shot down, ejected after jester had popped the canopy and ejected himself (i think we ejected at the same time), restart, used the same slot, and still no dice.

Home Fries Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Happened last night as well. After getting bagged by a Su-27, we couldn't restart engines. We had to exit out of DCS altogether, then rejoin the server. The track file from the server is available on request. -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
