I have just rebooted the server, so it may clear the issue.

There is a known problem with multiplayer operations. You may have to refresh the list several times before you can see the RAF Air servers. We are currently investigating a change that could well end these issues once and for all.

2.2 sounds like it could be an issue at your end. Renaming your saved games folder, and running a repair of DCS World may help.

ok been at it for nearly 6 hrs.

Renaming saved game makes no differance for both versions. turning off firewall makes no differance.

Have tryied every permitation possible all with no joy. only thing i noticed was game started faster with new saved game folders.

Short of taking 4ilb lump hammer to the hard drive i am out of ideas. Actully gona try one more thing on both versions upgrade repair. if that no work then i really have no idea.

progress report or shud i say lack of progress.

so both game versions cleaned repaired updated. did notice new runtimes were installed. maybe our servers need new runtimes?

only other and last thought is placement of the range target files.

Now i belive they shud be placed in saved games dcs etc Mod/Tech and nowhere else. Is this correct ? also ive got rid of jsme for now as thought clean out start again.

Thats it ive tryed everything.

i just gonna wait for you chaps to direct me.

If you cannot see the server in the list, you could try connecting by IP address.

The button to push is at the top right hand side of the multiplayer screen. The IP Address is: 94.23.28.177:10308 for 1.5.8 and 94.23.28.177:10309 for 2.2.

The other factor could be that you're not running the latest version of DCS World. Have you done an update recently?

Hope that helps.

I also cannot Join the Server. It tells me I must have 476th Range Targets by Noodle & Straw. I do have Range Targets installed, and I can find no update since Nov 2017.

Ok chaps. Ive fixed the issue.

I laid down for ten mins and was just about to drop off when it hit me what was wrong.

Such a silly schoolboy error iam embrassed to post it but here goes.

So i thought ok so the server looks for a file called blah blah range targets. so i swore at the DCS folder in japanese and upon checking saved games dcs blah blah Mods/Tech i noticed i only had the files from range target and not the main flolder !

So i sore at my co pilot Chewie and blamed her for everything.

LOL ok so gona sort 2.2 server then shud be good to go.

I have discovered that my Air Targets mod have been out of date for the last 6 weeks. So why is this the first time this has been a problem?

Now updated and re-allowed entry.
