Re: In the Market for a New Rig

you want onboard ethernet, 1G or the newer 2.5G (not that you will really need it, but it will also work on 1G - mine has it). definitely use onboard, not wifi. if you can make sure it is intel, that is good but some mainboard manufacturers have good network chips. avoid realtek if you can, but it w...

Re: In the Market for a New Rig

i think the issue is going to be your GPU at that price range, unless you are looking to keep the same GPU for a while. when i get a chance I can tell you what i built, you can look for something along those lines. I would say you really do not need more than 32GB ram, but leave room in the system t...

Re: Beta Update 04.13.23

server is updated. not sure if it helps with the mission scripting yet, i gave it a shot but not sure. the server is running scarlet dawn if someone can get on it and knock some things out, i can check the persistence files if you let me know.

DCS update kills mission persistency

So the multi-thread update has messed with the scripting engine. It has either broken it or bugged it. One side effect is that mission persistency that uses files to track killed units is not working. That means all of Surrexen's missions will not function properly. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/253...

Re: Scarlet Dawn by Surrexen

OK, I have been watching the server and this mission, the latest update messed up not only Voice Attack, but the scripting engine in other areas as well. This includes missions that use persistency like Scarlet Dawn. This may also affect Surrexen's older missions Clear Field (Caucasus) and Snowfox (...

Re: Scarlet Dawn by Surrexen

the mission was updated once again, moved the awacs and tankers to a better route, moved 2 of the rotary wing FARPs (center, Dallas and south, Moscow) to more protected areas. if you can test either of them please do so. also, if you do not have the A-4 installed please check to ensure you can conne...

Re: Small Beta Hotfix Today 03.22.23

it would be great if everyone installed the A-4 (not necessary, especially since i am the only one flying it), but until then each time the mission is edited the mission file inside of the .miz needs to be edited to remove the required aircraft like; i just forgot to do it.

Re: Scarlet Dawn by Surrexen

OK, I was able to update the mission with an LHA group - the Saipan has been added. It needed to be a separate group because each naval group can have only one tacan and icls setting. Essentially it mirrors the ABE group but a couple miles to the east of it.

Just so everyone has an update: Older version of Scarlet Dawn works for Voice Attack and Viacom Pro. Surrexen checked after my report and does advise there is an issue, bug introduced in the multi-thread update (may or may not be related to multi-threading), he needs to wait for ED to fix it to chec...

Re: Upcoming missions

Surrexen's missions have tons of targets. Since no one else has weighed in, I would say put off the Mariana's mission until some later date. I would also caution against too many things dependent upon triggers. It will depend upon the conditions, but as a group we are not really that reliable.
