CarbonFox Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Seems more stable now after the hotfix, especially in MP. Looking forward to what comes next, especially for the Hornet and Viper.

msalama Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Anyone noticed how the ground AI behaves much better now? Pathfinding seems to finally work and they avoid trees as well. Man, I like this patch after the hotfix & am extremely glad to see things MOVING again :thumbup: The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

LORD FLASHEART Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Stingers flew a multiplayer combat mission last night with 11 Hornets on our dedicated server with the latest patch and it ran very well. We also flew traps and the Stennis is back to normal (doesn’t crash the server). Catapult hook ups seem to require ATC comms and cat 2 is most reliable.

Raisuli Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I've got a few hours on 2.6, flew some dusk mission around Dubai. Lighting is amazing. Huge Huey bug; it keeps crashing (my Huey, not the game). This has nothing to do with me being a Huey novice, I'm sure. It's worse when I come in to crash...er...land. Seriously, in my little corner of DCS, 2.6 is working out nicely. Others...maybe different, but no complaints here on my old machine. New box isn't quite ready yet.

Eber Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Yea from my point of rig, DCS 2.5.6 in the actual state is running nice with good lighting and superb looking Ka-50. I wonder why so many Users seem to have problems with 2.5.6, whilst others seem to have improvements which would then lead to two groups: the 2.5.5 conservatives and the 2.5.6 progressive party?!?

Strix Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Solved! After latest update 2.5.6 to beta the visibility to see objekts like tanks on ground is worse. I made a mission long before update to 2.5.6 with 4 Shermans moving to a position and then I am trying to divebomb them with BF109. Before update I was able to see them on ground from 3000m! Now I cant find them from above 600m! I have not changed anything in video settings in game! In video I am paddlocked on to the tanks and altitude is from 2500m to about 875m! And no tanks visible!!:ranting: I did test it on DSC World 2.5.5 to and I can see the tanks from 3000m altitude!! Tiny as hell, but visible! No problem there! This works fine now with latest update!!

Woody01 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 We (TFK) gave it a good run last night with about 18 people joined and it went very well! No one dropped out, server had no issues apart from a couple of times people getting credit for kills when they hadn't even fired a missile. Overall it was a fantastic multiplayer experience.

122sqn Bruv Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 would be nice for the in-game scores to be somewhat accurate again. some of us can't sleep at night without knowing how many kills/deaths we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrohde Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Anybody else getting "window is out of focus" in orange writing on the multiplayer sever screen ? Maybe something I am overlooking ? Yes, that's something like a new service message I assume which goes away until after everything is loaded correctly and DCS is ready to go in VR.

Eldur Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I wish they'd just disable that so people would worry about weather they accomplish the mission and survival instead. Reminds me of me flying with a buddy. He literally racks up 4-5 times the kills I do, but he dies at least as often in one evening while I don't do that even once... Edit: My performance went up a bit, doing around 30fps now. Still not the 45 I had, but better than just 22fps. And almost stutter free. Well, after some more flying I can say the stutters are still there, but not totally as bad as they've been just the version before. They're very prominent when flying very fast over landscape, again. This time, I turned out to the sea (literally I flew ~300 from Senaki and at around 100nm DME I turned left to come back home from the west) and as soon as the landscape totally vanished in the haze just like 15-20nm behind me (if wishes were viewing distance!), the stuttering completely disappeared.

Britchot Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Anybody else getting "window is out of focus" in orange writing on the multiplayer sever screen ? Maybe something I am overlooking ? Edit, playing in VR I get it regularly when my DCS is not my active window, i.e. Alt-Tabbed or on the desktop. I find it quite useful to avoid clicking buttons on the HOTAS after changing some sound settings. It consistently goes away when I click on DCS's window.

majorandme Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Last stable change in the changelog was 23.12.2019 . Any idea when the 2.5.6 beta will be released as a stable change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harlikwin Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Anyone else having issues with the Radio menu buttons sometimes not working? I posted it the bug section, but I'm wondering if anyone else has seen it. Hit \ to bring up the menu, and sometimes the buttons work as usual F8 ground crew. Other times nothing happens, and yet other times it switches to external views like the F buttons normally do. It also seems to happen more online than offline, but its done it on both. And the doubly weird thing is that its not consistent, it sometimes works and sometimes not on the same online server and airframe.

I've had that in the campaign I'm currently playing - I thought it was just the campaign. I'll tell my wingmen to do something, and nothing will happen. Then I'd do the same again a couple seconds later, and they would respond. Modules: Wright Flyer, Spruce Goose, Voyager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
