Alpenwolf Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 When aiming with an IR SAM unit (Strela/MANPAD, etc.) you hear the low tone first and then when a lock is acquired a louder higher pitched one. Even after you fire or break the lock (bandit down or you're not aiming at it any more) that tone is still piercing through your ears. You can deselect the unit and take a different one (even if it's a tank), the tone is still there. The only way to get rid of it is to disconnect from the server then reconnect again. I've been experiencing this for several weeks now and thought I was doing something wrong hence the delayed report. Might be a multiplayer issue. It doesn't happen every time you aim or lock on something but very often. Say 80-90% of the time. 1 Cold War 1947 - 1991 Discord Helicopters Tournaments Combined Arms Tournaments You can help me with keeping up the server via PayPal donations: hokumyounis@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow KT Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Also happening with Avenger... If you are in a vehicle and someone is in an Avenger and locking something you can hear it. I have a video and big track in which it happens reletively fast in the begining, track might not work anymore tho 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alireza.kh Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 this bug is really annoying when you use CA too much. recently i can hear it also in Russian tanks! sometimes when a chopper get in inside of main turret aim, i will hear strela lock on sound.

Count von Altibar Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Have been experiencing exactly the same issues and the only way I can get rid of it is to disconnect and reconnect to the MP server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappie Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I'm unable to reproduce this bug. I tried with SA-9, SA-13 and SA-18S to no avail. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't do it on your own. It has to be MP and someone somewhere, has to be in a SAM vehicle locking something.... If we knew how it worked, we would have reproduced it long time ago... play CA on the Cold War Server by Alpen and you will eventually get it. If you play frequently, it won't take long.

Shadow KT Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) How did you reproduce it? You probably deserve an award or something. This is the DCS equivalent of finding a cure for cancer. My theory was that it had something to do with spawning units via script or late activation.

This is the DCS equivalent of finding a cure for cancer. A cookie or a beer will do! I simply hosted a game with just me and another tester, both as Tactical Commanders. We let planes fly over us and aimed at them with each an Igla unit without firing missiles. After a few tries, in approximately 1 minute, the bug was reproduced. No script, no late activation. 3 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
