Tango3B Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 To be clear this only addresses the bug with steam version not starting. We will have another patch later in the week also thank you Glad to hear that we do not have to wait much longer for a patch. Great work, guys. This is very much needed. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AG-51_Razor Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I just returned home from a business trip and have yet to DL and install the most recent update. Is it better to wait and just install the next update, or should I go ahead and install this update and then the next fix?

Phantom88 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I had major issues playing old missions[made pre-ob patch] but playing instant action missions seems to be NP at all? This is in SP I should say. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I just returned home from a business trip and have yet to DL and install the most recent update. Is it better to wait and just install the next update, or should I go ahead and install this update and then the next fix? I myself have had no issues, however obviously just from reading this thread that are many that do. It is a very large update, as there is another coming later in the week might be worth just waiting.

Airhunter Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 While there are several issues with comms, alpha textures, effects and tweaks to the new lighting model as well as performance I am fairly certain ED will iron those out in the next few updates. Sadly this kind of progress in the base engine has to be made at a cost. It'll pay off in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky49 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) other than slow load times my VR is running at 40-80 averaging more towards 55 -65. That is in Single Missions and I have the new SSLR turned on. I have a fairly high end system. No stuttering encountered so far.

kontiuka Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Night looks fantastic, but it did seem to me, that smaller cities (though the lighting looked great) had a rectilinear box around them, without the soft hazing of light as it diffuses over distance.I think because in DCS, building lights aren't really light sources. They're really just textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrohde Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I think because in DCS, building lights aren't really light sources. They're really just textures. Yep, that's exactly it. Not the best solution, but maybe in the future ED is able to update the engine to allow more realistic lighting across the board.

I wonder why ED changed that :dunno: I'll try the saved games folder trick as someone suggested in that thread... Probably just because of that. It's just like with the views.lua where we could set our own FOV range. Banned on IC for quite a while now. I'm lucky that I just exchanged a few sound files that are inside the Mods / CoreMods folders. But for how long? We will have another patch later in the week also thank you I just hope this will fix my black screen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steam release fixed. Likely another hotfix this week, so I think the response time is pretty awesome? Their response time literally is nonexistent, immediately starting work on a fix as soon as the reports pop up. I've once had a Fujitsu-Siemens server at work that stopped running. They literally had 48h response time for business customers. When after over a week the technician finally showed up, he just said that those 48h were split in 8h days, not counting weekends. So basically that means you'd have to wait up to 8 days. Took them another 3 days to show up again with the spare parts BTW as it would have been way too easy to bring them in the first place. Needless to say that the whole server got replaced right after that event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiramisu Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 What do you guys think about the new style of the battle-damage-assessment-messages? I liked the older style much more.

The blue backgound is somewhat annoying. Is there a way to revert this? Not just backgound colour, but its Font and shape are not good. I suggest the appearance what should be a MFD-page-like window.
