Ah ha! Zesti Highway should be fixed for the points and next mission triggers.

The problem was a Mission Start event that set the two accumulation flags On - which gave them both a 1 value. The points were supposed to be 10, 20, 13, .., but were instead 11, 21, 31, ..

Using a one for the increment value would not have resulted in the problem.

---

Now to wonder why Gori Gap ran for 48 hours before I shut it off today...?

I'll put Zesti back up.

Anybody got a few hours I can buy? I need about 14...

I updated Hollo Pointe and got Zesti running again. Did some CA and saw a couple of messages that told me the point system is working now. Zesti was running this morning after about ten hours, so I jumped in and looked around and it is not too far off from flipping to the next mission - but it needs Client help.


By the time I was ready to successfully start Zesti last night I was pretty frustrated with all the issues of patches, disconnects, and Combined Arms not being able to control AI a/c. I do wish that DCS would add some meaningful text to the Disconnect Messages. That really ticked me off last night to get Disconnected because of a version mismatch but not get something in the message to tell me that the server and client versions were different. I rebooted my client machine and installed video and LAN updates before I realized it was the server's down-level version that was the issue. I thought - what now? - after trying to get it to work - then I joined The Firehouse w/o a problem and that's when I realized that Hollo Pointe needed the new patch.

^^^ That said, I did have fun with CA before I retired for the night.

After I patched the server I forgot to re-do Slmod so it is not working right now.

Yeah it was a shame we couldn't complete that mission in a timely fashion.

I am not sure why the designers thought it would be prudent to gang up on the Maverick and make the A-10 lose its effectiveness. I thought the game was a real challenge as it was. Its very disappointing.

The thread on the ED forums got a few replies. Viper posted a video of him getting a single mav kill on a tung, but it involved getting the tung to fire at him before launching. I guess right now the Tunguska can't track two targets at once. If someone can get themselves shot at someone else can go for a killshot. Wouldn't work too well for multiple installations though. I don't think it's a terrible feature but a bigger failure rate against mavs and a much higher failure rate against HARMs (we had to use 4 minimum to kill one) would be good.

WC, I'll try to hop on after work right away to play around with the missions.

Hollo Pointe is restarted with Slmod and Zesti Highway.

Really, Zesti is not *that* hard smile You guys should have it beat before I get back from dinner.

This is new - ran across it last night, as Hollo Pointe was showing 3D scenes... This is important if you are running a server.

---> edit - this is where a Client can set the max FPS as well. You need to create an autoexec.cfg to hold your settings.


The text below comes from:
C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\graphics_reatme.txt


Hi!

Old graphics.cfg is gone and replaced with graphics.lua.
However, please, do not edit this file directly.
Otherwise you'll lose your changes after each update.

New method for overriding options is to create (or edit) a file

C:\Users\<YOUR-LOGIN>\Saved Games\DCS\Config\autoexec.cfg

or

C:\Users\<YOUR-LOGIN>\Saved Games\edModelViewer\Config\autoexec.cfg

(for model viewer)

and place your changes there.
Note:
- autoexec.cfg settings will override the options set via GUI.
- Graphic options in autoexec.cfg should be prefixed with options.graphics.
- file encoding should be UTF-8 without BOM

Example autoexec.cfg:

options.graphics.maxfps = 30
options.graphics.render3D = false
options.graphics.ScreenshotQuality = 75
-- add custom texture path
-- note the slashes!
table.insert(options.graphics.VFSTexturePaths, "c:/Users/<LOGIN>/Saved Games/DCS/MyTextures")



Happy gaming!

Thanks for the heads up crew- that helps especially considering we'll likely get many updates in the near future (hope I didn't just jinx it)

Had a little graphical issue on the HolloPointe Server...
I suppose it's client side as in Single Player I've never ever experienced this...








Plus terrain was really low detail...

Not to worry. Seems that the ground crew just cannibalized bits of wonder woman's A-10 for spare parts. It'll work fine winkngrin

Low detail is weird- if crew is like me I still don't enforce scenes detail and civ traffic (yet). In addition I wonder if its a version discrepancy- whether that mission was reloaded in the proper version?

Possibly just client side but those are the questions I'd be asking myself if it happens on the fh.

Mind you crew taught me most of that stuff so I'm sure he's on top of it!

Eno and WC I was curious if we could resurrect the original Highway mission for the UH-1Hs. Maybe trade the BTR-80s with something less accurate at least to start like a BMP-1 or 2.

Maybe start the Huey's at Krashnadar or mabe a farp so they can avoid the lake and the Buks.

A-10s and other ac could focus on Nova and the Huey's could clean up the highway.

Just a thought.

Most of the missions now include extensive air defense and tanks which the Huey's weren't designed to take on. However the endless highway of lightly armed trucks are very appealing and make us Huey gunship driver mouths water. readytoeat

Visions of Apocolypse Now Huey formations cruising up an down that highway blaring "Ride of the Valkyries" from speakers in the doors just looks and sounds appealing to me.

Rename it "The Huey Highway" ready

No problems for me anyway. Just wanted to check. Thanks everyone!

Wow that's pretty odd. Haven't seen that before - I jumped into a Clod slot to see what mine looked like this morning and all looked OK -


But the scenes were *really* dark and the colors all washed out... smile
