I've also been having issues with the game freezing and even totally locking my computer so that I have to do a hard reset but I think I've found the cause of the problem. For me it seems to be Beam Eye Tracker, after shutting it down the game runs fine. UPDATE I am now using Process Lasso to change the CPU affinity of Beam Eye Tracker, setting it to use all CPUs instead of just one. This was the reason for the freezing, CPU#15 was hitting 130% usage and locking up my system. I'd suggest others take a look at their CPU usage to see if something running in the background is hogging a single CPU.

Did anyone find a fix for this?

Before I updated the game everything was fine, I have always played with these setting on this system and changing settings to low makes no difference. I guess this is a multithreading issue as I'm seeing one core pegged out at 100%. null

Still no word from ED on this issue or have I missed it? I've been away from the game for a while and decided to hop in again last week. I had an old version installed (can't remember the version number) and the game ran just fine. After updating to the latest version I'm getting loads of what you might call stutters but they are actually locking up my PC, some to the extent that I have to do a hard reset. Yesterday I went into the mission editor and placed an F16, I took off and set the AP to just fly an orbit, this was the result. 2025-08-09 15:45:20.279 WARNING LOG (17328): 23 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 15:45:20.279 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 15:45:20.326 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 15:50:16.231 WARNING LOG (17328): 3 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 15:50:16.231 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 15:50:16.311 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 15:54:07.936 WARNING LOG (17328): 1 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 15:54:07.936 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 15:56:34.648 INFO APP (Main): Device unplugged: [SWD] TV 2025-08-09 15:59:22.255 WARNING LOG (17328): 2 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 15:59:22.255 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:01:31.834 INFO DXGUI_WIN_ADAPTER (Main): resize main window to [3840, 1080] 2025-08-09 16:01:31.853 WARNING LOG (17328): 1 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:01:31.853 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:01:32.094 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:04:02.071 WARNING LOG (17328): 14 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:04:02.071 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:04:02.148 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:11:52.834 WARNING LOG (17328): 21 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:11:52.834 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:11:53.136 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:13:29.208 WARNING LOG (17328): 6 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:13:29.208 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:13:29.273 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:14:37.337 WARNING LOG (17328): 1 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:14:37.337 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:14:38.121 WARNING LOG (17328): 2 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:14:38.121 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:21:36.843 WARNING LOG (17328): 19 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:21:36.843 ERROR ED_SOUND (16608): can't load wave: "speech/eng/common/player/messages/_end" 2025-08-09 16:22:41.551 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:27:46.927 WARNING LOG (17328): 1 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:27:46.927 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:27:47.179 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:29:03.933 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:29:04.155 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:30:38.599 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED 2025-08-09 16:30:38.680 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: SAME MODEL TIME 2025-08-09 16:31:41.578 WARNING LOG (17328): 1 duplicate message(s) skipped. 2025-08-09 16:31:41.578 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED Todays log file attached. dcs.log

Would be nice to have him target friendlies only once. So annoying when you try to target an enemy and George always targets the friendly just in front of the enemy.

Surely it wouldn't be that difficult for ED at add a little "shoot & scoot" to the AI?
