DCS World
DCS application. Single Thread version of DCS removed, bin folder now contains MT DCS and is duplicated in mt-bin for backward compatibility with shortcuts and will be removed soon.
Improved Spotting dots. Adjusted appearance of spotting dots in VR to be close to their previous state. We are looking at feedback. Currently we are working on the advanced functionality for spotting dots rendering which will depend on VR hardware type and its properties which we hope to deliver in future patches to address difference in dots sizes between different VR devices and monitors.
Several performance improvements were activated after profiling of certain missions and concepts of usage. Intense battles will be affected the most: targets and shooting detection by AI units as well as launchers' line-of-sight routines are revised, major parts of the performance-consuming code moved to a parallel thread.
3D models. Fixed animation of deploying of SA-10 “Big Bird” radar antenna.
3D Models. EWR55G6 shows as red in mirrors - Fixed.
Aircraft AI. China Asset Pack. Added Falcon assault gyrocopter.
Aircraft AI. Cargo doors on the AI Mi-8 helicopter remain open during task Cargo transportation - fixed.
Aircraft AI. Carpet bombing task not working - fixed.
Aircraft AI. Especially for the F/A-18C, aircraft can get stuck in a high-alpha angle flight profile and are unable to accelerate while losing altitude. In some cases it can eventually crash into the ground. Fixed.
Aircraft AI. In some cases Helicopters can't land correctly. They take too long to land and sometimes collide. Fixed.
Aircraft AI. MiG-31 can’t provide guidance to all R-33 missiles when launched in a four-missile salvo - fixed.
Aircraft AI. When an AI flight has an ROE set to “priority designated” or “weapons free”, the flight will incorrectly execute a carpet bombing task. The AI will make numerous passes and only drop a single bomb each time - fixed.
Aircraft AI. The old F-14A model has been hidden in ME. However, in old missions where this aircraft is present, it will work.
Aircraft AI. Fighter logic of attacking a group of cruise missiles has been changed. The fighter will perform attack maneuvers based on the assumption that the target is not maneuvering. The effectiveness of firing at cruise missiles has been increased.
Aircraft AI. UH-1H. Sound. AI UH-1H had an incorrect minigun sound. It sounded more like a conventional machine gun, and is different from the sound effect in the player's cockpit view.
Aircraft AI. AH-64. When landing on a single pad, the tail wheel is outside the pad and hangs in the air - fixed
Aircraft AI. Uncontrolled AI aircrafts can cause major FPS drop in certain situations - fixed
Aircraft AI. Sometime aircraft ignores the task Attack group - fixed
Aircraft AI. When AI aircraft taking off from the airfield, the aircraft does not respond to the received task(from wp or triggered actions) to attack the target - fixed
Aircraft AI. WWII AI planes doesn’t engage - fixed
DCS Core. FPS drops and issues related to mouse activity and polling rate - fixed.DCS Core. RAM is not being released in some cases - fixed.
DCS Core. Ground EWR not responding on client side - fixed.
DCS Core. F10 map view adjustments to stop seeing enemy static objects and FARPs and neutrals if relevant settings forbid it.
CTD. Dynamic Slots, track replay crash - fixed.
