  1. Are you running any mods, if yes try without, then one at a time until it crashes again
  2. Fsx steam don't need Fshost Dave Could be good fun
  3. Sounds good, depends on how they role out MP on it though on console it was limited to 16 per server
  4. there ya go http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/ahoyworld
  5. but surely in the grand scheme of things it's all about the D
  6. Hopefully once EDGE releases we'll get some features like player skins getting read across the server & a proper filter but the way it is now and how .lua works and changes each update which breaks or changes something else, it's kinda tricky to do anything without a relatively good knowledge of the program and all it's quirks from what i see on the forums most people have given up those kinds of mods until EDGE and then we'll see what happens from there there is a score / kill board if you press Tab or ' can't remember which a skin repo would be cool but would get quite large quite quickly as all texture files are uncompressed .dds layered images even if zipped the don't compress too much less then unzipped for example I have 7 livery files for the Sabre and they total nearly 1.2gb by themselves, if I was to do that for all the modules I'd need a hdd for skins alone
  7. The Hawk was technically a glorified mod up until last week, when it became an official module with ED aproved installer, you needed a separate installer to have it before then as for liveries I think you are the only one with a custom texture, unless Cain want one for the Sabre,(the only default one is a bit muck) Everyone eleses liveries are stock and already in game so everyone can see them no need to add them in post, unless anyone else has or wants a custom one Raz / Chris / Whoever is hosting can you add following .lua's to your DCS Saved Game files it should allow Tacview to capture everyone's flight telemetry while in MP https://www.dropbox.com/s/r8e31f5avrrrhg1/Tacview%20MP%20server%20setup.zip?dl=0 instructions in the readme or just install Tacview it's free Also if adding Liveries (as the example DudeX has is set up a very old way i.e. for Flaming Cliffs) I'd suggest you install them to your DCS Saved Games folder "WHATEVERDRIVELETTER":\Users\"USERNAME"\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries as updates tend to remove added files if you put them inside the game install folders if above folder doesn't exist just create it, DCS looks for it first, and add your livery to the appropriate aircraft folder example I've added an A-10C folder for DudeX's A-10 so I'll see his if Raz adds it just make sure it matches the aicraft folder name in the MODS or CORE MODS folder for the install directory "SomeDriveLETTER":\Users\"SOMEONE"\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\A-10C\ and dropped the download Livery folder into it similar to below
  8. Aviojet C-101EB for me Patrulla Aguila25 25 Aniversario Livery set as Spain to get the livery and remind me to load up on smoke before startup too Dude - you couldn't see that Hawks last time, they're part of the game now after the last update so should show up for you now test for yourself in editor drop an A10 or whatever you have to fly and put a Hawk down in the parking area next to you, if it show up then its working if not you might need to do a DCS Repair to get it to install correctly - alternatively buy the module

    Both names you chose can been seen a racially offensive weather a real name or not, we do not condone that sort of thing, also your avatar pic was in very bad taste, again offensive, your response about your pic was that it's only toilet paper and laugh it off as being kind of funny again not what we want on our TS so no you won't be welcome at any time with that sort on immature attitude

    EU3 Mods

    the info you're looking for is here check the spoiler for changelogs & updates http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/topic/3475-eu3-required-addons-repository-information/#entry21721
  11. Yeah I have a Tacview but it only records my flight, I suggest eveyone get it if we continue this kinda thing it's free for ever - http://tacview.strasoftware.com/ when you first get it you get the Home user version on Trial for 21 days after that it switches off some options but is still very usable all you need to do is launch it before you run DCS or FSX or FALCON4 or if you fly in real life and have a GPS you can export a saved route and watch it back in the program. launch DCS it'll record in the background and saves to where ever you tell it to It's great for reviewing flights and the aerobatic fun and game If we all had it we can merge each of the recording together within the Tacview program to get every one flight on the same screen
  12. ^^ Same, could almost be in Wales has a bit of the Mach Loop feel to it Quick vid hopefully Friday ends happier though http://youtu.be/lfDSSHnylBI
  13. For those that are flying the older aircraft (WWII / F-86, Mig15 & 21) with different channel frequencies see Lino's DCS Beacon map here - http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/588673/ Would be cool if we could get the Aires radio mod up but might be difficult on Short notice maybe future it's like a DCS version (but been around alot longer) TFAR / ACRE for the coms and you use the in cockpit radio channels to broadcast over TS & receive comms between each plane
  14. Replacement audio for main & multiplayer menu in JSGME format enjoy https://www.dropbox.com/s/jxojqalhkfl9ua6/Danger%20zone.zip?dl=0
  15. If i remember correctly we did at one stage have an auto re-starter on EU1&2 but due the the crashaton nature of Arma we'd end up having to restart more frequently, and then just because it's Arma and it's messed up code the re-starter wouldn't reset to the last restart, so it would end up that we'd "hard" or "soft" restart for a crash / script kiddie and then more often then not the re-starter would kick in 10 - 20 minutes later for the scheduled restart and kill the server again and it started pissing players & admins off so we took it away for sanity sake
  16. Actually now i remember what i was supposed to be buying before i got side tracked by grafix cards upgrade Sennheiser PC350SE are supposed to be the mutts nuts, so those for wired preference or Logitech G930 and a pocket mobile battery charger to power the Track Ir for the full wireless xperience
  17. DCS F-86F Sabre, practicing lobing Nukes with the LABS system
  18. There are also some nice full texture reworks for individual seasons Desert here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B31Ed4Wn1_E2d05qWmxEaFFtRUE/edit?usp=download Eagle Dynamics forum link: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=121524 Also a runway edit for Desert to include Marsden Mats used in WWII to create temporary runways load after Desert DL here: https://mega.co.nz/#!KF8iAbLK!xSlEpBAbt934hSnuyTr4YOTPKWJ2ATU0nyakDkPdzlM Vietnam here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/h08crv6s0za4u1s/DCS_Vietnam_by_Starway.rar Eagle Dynamics link: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=140251 If you run them with the set I first linked above, load the first set then Desert then Vietnam then the Mats mod, choosing yes on the popup in JSGME to overwrite the files already used by the other mods To see the textures in game for Desert set the season to Summer and Vietnam set to Autum/Fall
  19. So I've been playing about in DCS the last few weeks and have come across a few nice mods and tweaks you can try them here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B42jRT7D17ZidmpZcDluS095N0E/view?usp=sharing or here https://www.dropbox.com/s/h8fq3orqehnzvgo/_MODS.zip?dl=0 All except two (3) are useable in MP with no issues continue reading for details to install them you'll need JSGME mod loading tool http://www.gamefront.com/files/21681483 Download & extract JSGME to anywhere on your PC, go into the extracted folder and find the JSGME.exe file cut and paste it into your main DCS install folder (c:\eagledynamics\dcs world\) or similar now run the jsgme.exe, when you first you'll be asked to select your mod folder and gives a default one called MOD and an underscore to the begining _MOD and select next / continue, this will add a new folde rnamed _MOD into DCS, this is where you place any mods you require to run, full instruction here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=98607 (but a bit confusing) next click Task and choose Generate snapshot from the drop down list, this give a text file so you can compare any changes made by mods if required. Now close JSGME Download some mods I've included my list above first link ^^ It's already structured to run with no issues on latest DCS update 1.2.15 Download & Extract and copy to your new _MODS folder, then re run JSGME.exe select all the MODS on the left side (Available mods) and click the right pointer to load them into DCS, now run DCS click the left pointer to deactivate, DO NOT deactivate while DCS is running it'll cause crashes (make sure to deactivate before any updates to DCS are applied too). My list of mods have some of the following and can also be found individually here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=127098 It includes: SweetFX, Hi-Res ground textures, New Building textures, A nice HDR effect, Wicked Cloud textures that cast shadows, A fix for the floating pods on the AI F-16's (really bugs me in replays), (Deactivate before joining MP unless it's active on the server your joining) Hi-Res Roads, Tarmac'd Runways (I really like these (not all runways get the effect which is cool adds some variation), An edit for the missiles to give them a more true to life flight parameter (Deactivate before joining MP unless it's active on the server your joining) A smoke effect for exploded items, the smoke colums are thicker & rise futher into the air making them more visible from a distance An options menu edit that add extra view distances to the list (Very high & Ultra) A cockpit reflection mod which adds a nice immersion feel to being behind glass A cleaner windshield for the Huey, F-86 and a few others The list goes on.... I have some screen shots showing differences, i'll be adding to it over the next while here: http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/gallery/album/8-dcs-mostly/
