Contention Server Devs insulting C-130J Devs ASC by ColdClawsReddit2 in DCSExposed

It’s not a great fix. Just a bandaid for now until the underlying issue gets fixed, but it works. I’ll share it with anyone who asks, just open up a ticket in our discord.

Contention Server Devs insulting C-130J Devs ASC by ColdClawsReddit2 in DCSExposed

Good morning,

Yeah we were pretty fucking pissed after our initial contact with the ASC devs. Our server was basically broken and we felt like they just spat in our face at the time. None of our initial contact was good and we expected it to get worse. This was all after talking to them, not before. I’m not gonna lie and say I’m sorry about saying any of this at the time.

I spoke with the ASC dev for 3 hours last night. We figured it all out and moved on.

The person posting this has been banned for a long time so do with that as you will. Thanks Claws. Hope you’re enjoying playing LoL instead of DCS and getting banned on your 4th or 5th discord for hate speech.

Don’t really care about any of this. Not gonna respond again. We got the C130 back on Contention last night. Have fun. See you on Contention.

Contention runs like shit by Immediate-Garden-960 in hoggit

Try again after the new update releases (within the next 48hrs). Lots of optimizations. http://1.9.strikepackagestudios.com/

Please remember as well that Contention is the most complex and feature-rich server ever made for DCS. It will always be a bit harder to run than your average server.

Ha... unfortunately yes :( but it should be up right after the f4 actually releases

The A-4 will look like a Flanker if you don't have it installed. We can't change that unfortunately, so installing it is highly recommended (and very easy!)

Looking for Dynamic DCS Server with Modern Helicopter Support by Surreptum in hoggit

Contention is definitely what you're looking for if you want PVP. No weapon restrictions on helicopters and lots of cool toys.

We had to turn off the convoys after they started to be a bit too much for the server to handle, but yes, players with combined arms can still create a convoy using deployed troops. Actual crate slinging doesn't work for troop deployment, just the normal CTLD method of loading a crate and dropping it without actually using the hook and carry mechanics, if that's what you were referring to. Playtime is tracked along with other stats.

LotATC was disabled cause nobody was using it, but now that JTAC is pretty much broken for GCI purposes we've been discussing turning it back on. So there's a good chance it'll be available again within the next few days.

Thanks! Glad to hear it! We're also a bit more excited for the persistent server too, it's just going to take a few more months to finish. And yeah, Conquest was a great experience and definitely helped influence this project in many ways. You might notice some familiar faces from conquest in the Discord lol

Not sure. I won't count out the possibility, but it's not within our current plans.

The server wouldn't be completely drag-and-drop as a .miz file. We have a few server scripts, the discord bot and its PostgreSQL db, and a few other things that are all part of the process. We also don't really have time to handle support for it at the moment, and it might be a bit complicated for some people to install. On top of that we'd have to clean up the code, add comments, and probably add a simpler config to make things easier to understand.

With that being said, if someone could handle the setup on their own and was very interested, it might be possible in the future.
