Satbility issue

Un message de C3PO

This afternoon we believe we fixed this issue, and the associated stability issue. We're currently testing but so far it looks good. More later (and plse don't ask just yet for a release timeframe!)

[frero]

à quel propos ?? où ça ?

[BoloM]

A propos de la stabilite multiplayer. Apparemment, il y a une chance pour que LP sorte un update pour l'exe serveur (je savais meme pas qu'il y avait un exe serveur). Plus la.

[C3PO]

Yes, we have fixed it

This afternoon I flew for two hours on Multiviper's Server which was given the fixed exe (clients don't need it) ... and the disconnection and stability issues have gone. We had clients jumping in and out of very busy campaign missions and it was every bit as reliable as 1.0.5 -- except a much smoother experience of course being 1.0.6.

I'm sure we'll be releasing some kind of "hotfix" soon ... but when exactly I could not tell you.

Thx for the amazing followup C3PO, waiting for the new little fix .

Merci de ce suivi C3PO, on attend le nouveau petit patch.
Faut avouer comme cela a été dit auparavent, travaillez un dimanche, il faut le faire.

Hi C3PO,

Still something unclear : I dont catch if these problems accur :
only in dedicated server mode
OR
also in traditional connection mode (1 player alaso acting as server + clients players)

Because many people here report problem when flying online.

Could you please bring your light on that point ?

Thanks

same question than cougar. And I'm a bit worried : we have our official weekly flight tonight in the bald eagles.

[Electro]

we had our official flight... and it has been a nightmare :

* Playing a 1.06 mission (the same than the saturday flight : mission armagedon) ;
* 9 human pilots ;

1/ 1st try with Free (an internet provider) : we briefed at 21h30, tried to take off but #2 (me) of the escort could not see #3 that could not see #2. Everybody came back to desktop.

2/ 2nd try with another host (wanadoo) : we tried to take off in PS, but a huge lag occured and #4 crashed into #1.

3/ everybody returned to desktop and last try. I tried to host this time (my provider is Noos 10 mégas). Take off correct but I have been disconnected (unfortunately, as I said, I was the hoster). Being #2, I was able to see #3 and #3 could see me but #1 could not see me anymore and #4, that had been disconnected, rejoined on me but saw I was alone.

Conclusion : when it works, it is a very smooth experience (very small lag)... but, all in all and as for now, 1.06 is unplayable online and we reconsider going back to 1.05 until the issue(s) has been sold.

As you said on frugal, it is certainly the price to pay to have an ambitious patch : so, keep up the good work and we are very anxious to see the hotfixe that will permit to play the 1.06

Sounds like someone might have had their bandwidth inccorectly set. Upgrading to the new patch causes the settings to default back to 33 / 33.

This fix will correct major stability + connection issues in Host Only mode AND traditional connection mode.

i don't think so, we all checked it before.

This fix will correct major stability + connection issues in Host Only mode AND traditional connection mode.

I hope that it'll be release asap

thx for all
