Hello. Thanks for the reply. I actually managed to get it straightened out a few days ago and was able to log into 104th's server last Saturday but no one else was on and I have some tweaking and setting up to do again (for all my modules). With any luck, I'll be able to at least fly the Gazelle this weekend. And I "just" started trying to figure out the F-16 ... I haven't the foggiest but I'll figure it out. In the meantime, I'll have to reacquaint myself with Simple Radio which I was having issues with as well. Anyway, thank you for allowing me to rejoin the fun. I'll recommence Donating very soon too. See you all soon. Chris aka SnowTiger

I just tried jumping into the 104th's Server but I got a message saying "Pure client is required" which I have never seen before. What the heck does that mean and how do I resolve it ?

Salute 104th Phoenix Squadron Long time no see. In fact, it has been almost exactly 1 full year since I have flown in 104th Servers ... OR anywhere at all for that matter. Some of you may recall that I flew the Gazelle all the time. In either June or July 2019, I took a break from the many frustrations I was having with DCS. However, I jumped in 104th Server with a New DCS Pilot who was trying to figure the game out including getting into Live Servers and using the Comms etc. I flew with him in your Server for 2x 1hour sessions and then went and crawled back under my rock again. Then last December (2019), my computer decided to puke which ultimately resulted in having Win10 completely reinstalled... along with everything else. However, every time I turned DCS On or even Steam (for other games .... I don't have Steam DCS) my Desktop Icons would go ape shit and start moving up/down on my screen, all at the same time. By the time DCS or Steam opened, it was almost impossible to click on anything let alone Exit because with the same frequency that the icons were moving on my Desktop, so was my Mouse Cursor moving back to Center Screen. I had to be quick to Exit (or click anything I intended to click on). ANYWAY .. I finally got that fixed yesterday and have been ITCHING to get back into action. SOOOOOOOO..... I was wondering if y'all would mind if I joined back in the fun with you folks again ? Once I finally get my aircraft HOTAS Settings restored and am able to fly something again I will gladly recommence Monthly DONATIONS for the privilege of being able to fly with you all again. I'm hoping I can remember how to reconfigure all the Comms before jumping into your Server but I might need a few minutes help if much has changed (or I have simply forgotten what it all needs to work). I'm also hoping to have some time tomorrow (Sunday) to join you in your Server to get the ball rolling again. Please let me know if you are or are not in favor of me flying with you all again. Thanks in Advance. Chris aka SnowTiger :)

UPDATE: It appears that My MODEM was causing most of my disconnection issues. I have since obtained a new modem and along with a few tweaks, I have had no issues remaining connected since. ADMINS>>> YOU ARE WELCOME TO DELETE THIS THREAD if you wish !

Thank you kindly.

I am unable to Donate. I have tried several times over the last few days without success. I have used a couple different Donate Links and fill out the form for $ amount and oddly it only gives an option for 2105 Goals (or something to do with 2015). Once I get to PayPay, I get a message stating that the recipient is not currently accepting donations. I'm happy to donate when I can (I survive on a fixed low income via Disability Pension) but it is currently impossible to do this at all. **UPDATE** It appears the Donation function is now working correctly and I have finally been able make my first donation. Thanks for fixing it.

The DCS Repair sorted itself out but I'm lucky if I can fly for 15 minutes before I get the "Connection Timed Out". Yesterday, I timed out twice in less than 15 minutes. Does the autoexec.cfg need to be updated occasionally ? Does anyone read these forums ?

So I managed to speak with one of the 104th Squad members the other day who turned me on to the "autoexec.cfg" file to help eliminate my disconnection issues. I had 2 days of flawless, issueless flying and had a ball. But of course there was a new fuckupdate today and now my shit is disconnecting AGAIN. I have re-installed (copy/paste) that file again 3 times today following the Update and a couple Reboots. Furthermore, now for the first time ever, I am unable to do a DCS Repair. I get some stupid timeout issue with that now ???!!! wtf is up with that I wonder. ANYWAY, now that there is a recent update, does that require that this file be reinstalled again (each time there is an update) ? OR might that file need a little revision on your end to account for DCS's latest BS Update ? Someone PLEASE HELP ASAP.

Any chance one of the Server Admins might reply any time soon ?

I have been trying to fly on your server for many weeks now but I continuously have the same problem EVERY TIME. Each and EVERY time I get on your server, sooner or later (usually sooner) I get Disconnected and it jams up my shit for minutes before I can do anything on my PC (unless I Alt Ctrl Del fast enough). More often than not, this happens after I have flown a very long distance trying to find some action and/or just as I'm ready to engage a target. It is super frustrating. Please Help. PS> I am always on SRS any time I am in the server however I rarely hear anyone on any of the specified frequencies. My PC exceeds the minimum requirements. I don't have or use Mods
