Testing out DCS now. No more black screen on bootup. Here's everything that i did Removed dxgi.dll from bin-mt Booted from bin not bin-mt Disabled game mode Disabled Hardware Accelerated GPU scheduling Disabled Core Isolation Ran SFC and DISM commands Ran wsreset.exe Deleted %LOCALAPPDATA%\TEMP\DCS.openbeta Ran slow repair Thank you for your help once again. If I have any more issues relating to this kind of boot up/crash problem I'll leave an additional post. Hope this helps anyone out there with similar issues.

I stopped playing for a few months. Moved to a new place and finally got the sim setup and its just been running funny. The game runs fine its just getting to the point of actually playing it that's the issue. I'm currently doing a slow repair and did the sfc and dism. I deleted the dxgi.dll and I suspect that its there because i had bin-mt pinned to task bar and every time i booted up DCS it was running bin-mt.

Thank you. I’ll try all of the above starting with deleting dxgi.dll and create a new shortcut for DCS via bin as opposed to bin-mt. Not sure why I’m having the windows issue. I have plenty of space and just updated windows a few days ago. Only thing I changed was unparking my cpu cores but the issue was happening prior to that as well. Thanks again and I’ll post again with my results

P.S I also get crashes when quitting a mission sometimes as well Crash log for crash on mission exit dcs.log-20250525-215045.zip

Hello I've been having issues trying to get DCS to run. I run the launcher and press start game then all i get is a black screen. I did a repair and deleted the old options.lua in the config folder as well as fxo and metashaders. For some reason when I open an app for example Nvidia control panel is runs like normal. I'll attach a log as well just lmk if its the right one. thank you! dcs.log

I was having a similar issue with this update except I'm using a flat screen tv. Deleting fxo and metashaders fixed this issue

no issues yet tonight. will update in the future if i get any other crashes

I did that about a week ago and had no issueup until the last few days. only thing i can think of that changed is that i downloaded TheWay. The export .lua made my game run funky so i deleted it and saw an immediate improvement however i get random stutters and freezes now even after deleting the scripts

ill be playing for the next half hour and as well as tomorrow night. Ill set a reminder and report back tomorrow. only issue is it only crashes every so often. to give you a little extra detail the last time it crashed i went from F1 view to F10 back to F1 and it crashed. not sure if that helps

I do have 3 cubesim screens. maybe that could be the issue. i have an external hard drive plugged in as well maybe ill unplug that and see if that does anything. ill check my windows version now and report anything if found

No file named oculus found. any other places to look by chance? Thank you

Its possible that some files could have gotten transferred over when i got my new computer. I used to have an oculus waay back. Do you know what the folder name/location might be?

dcs.log-20240222-092326.zip let me know if this is the correct one or not apparently that crash log i sent you was old. it was from a couple years ago. sorry for the confusion

No sir im on a flat screen 55 in tv. I have MSI software and heard that may be conflicting somehow?

Hey guys I’ve been looking through the manual and tutorials like crazy but I can’t find a way to get the GNSS system to work after I repair the aircraft. Is there something I’m missing here? Any help is much appreciated

Anyone know of a fix here im kind of lost. i followed previously made threads but to no avail. every time i run the witchcraft windows command it keeps saying socket.io not found. any help would be great i just want to learn how to code on this goshdarn game

local function requestSEAD(vars) if vars.type == SEAD then mist.respawnGroup('SEAD-1', true) end mist.respawnGroup('SEAD-2', true) end local function requestCAS(vars) if vars.type == CAS then mist.respawnGroup('CAS-1', true) end mist.respawnGroup('CAS-2', true) end local function requestCAP(vars) if vars.type == CAP then mist.respawnInZone('CAP-1', 'BLUE') end mist.respawnInZone('CAP-2', 'BLUE') end local requestAsset = missionCommands.addSubMenu('Request Asset') local seadAsset = missionCommands.addCommand( 'SEAD' , requestAsset , requestSEAD, {type = SEAD} ) local seadAsset = missionCommands.addCommand( 'CAS' , requestAsset , requestCAS, {type = CAS} ) local seadAsset = missionCommands.addCommand( 'CAP' , requestAsset , requestCAP, {type = CAP} ) I got the code to work now i just need to figure out how to add a message whenever a group spawns in. I also want to figure out how to do a while loop as well. thanks for your help its finally all starting to make sense. @Grimes any luck figuring out how to use witchcraft? i feel like it would help a ton. for some reason I cant get function whatever(vars) to work with flags or anything else for that matter

@Grimes i got the radio item to pop up but i doesnt spawn the gorups that i want any ideas here? p.s i use notepad++ but i dont know how you get it to show up like that local function request(vars) if vars.type == sead then mist.respawnGroup('Aerial-21') end mist.respawnGroup('Aerial-22') end local requestAsset = missionCommands.addSubMenu('Request Asset') local seadAsset = missionCommands.addCommand( 'SEAD' , requestAsset , mist.respawnGroup, {type = sead} )

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3329112/ found out i had to creat the file. heres a great mod in case you are looking around like i was heres my template Labels.lua

I looked up a way to change the size of the dot label in DCS and found this but i cannot find the right lua in the saved games/DCS/config/view anymore. did the location change?

Here's a miz file where I managed to get some random spawns. If you download the mission go to the f10 menu and press "BVR" or "WVR". This will spawn a random amount of bandits. afterwards you can reset the bandit by going into the f10 menu and pressing "RESET". this will spawn a new set of bandits. if you want to completely get rid of the bandits go to the f10 menu and press "BVR OFF" or "WVR OFF" and then go back to the f10 menu and press "RESET". I also added a dynamic ground unit spawning system. one for basic ground units with some sams mixed in and one specifically for sam sites. these ground unit spawns will trigger automatically at mission start and once every hour Like i said previously i would like to figure out how to use lua to do these tasks instead of the mission editor. I've been struggling to learn and If there are any pointers you could give me to get me moving in the right direction that would be great! I"m still trying to learn how to add radio commands so im going to try and focus on that first. thank you and hopefully someone else can learn from this as well in the future Nevada dynamic AA.miz

here's my script --part 1 do trigger.action.setUserFlag(5, math.random(1, 10)) end --part 2 if trigger.misc.getUserFlag(5),1) == 5 then do mist.cloneInZone('Ground-1', {'New Trigger Zone-1','New Trigger Zone-2','New Trigger Zone-3','New Trigger Zone-4','New Trigger Zone-5','New Trigger Zone-6','New Trigger Zone-7','New Trigger Zone-8','New Trigger Zone-9','New Trigger Zone-10','New Trigger Zone-11','New Trigger Zone-12','New Trigger Zone-13','New Trigger Zone-14','New Trigger Zone-15','New Trigger Zone-16','New Trigger Zone-17','New Trigger Zone-18','New Trigger Zone-19','New Trigger Zone-20'}) offsetRoute = True end I've tried changing "if trigger.misc.getUserFlag(5),1) == 5 then" in many ways with no success. Part 1 of the script works fine but the 2nd part im having all sorts of issues. Please is there anyone who knows what is going wrong? I just want to spawn a random group in a random zone. I have no idea how to debug this

I was looking for the MIST guide on the hoggit wiki and it says the site is unsafe. anyone know whats going on?

I'm trying to spawn a 1 random group out of 6 different groups on command via f10 radio. I usually use set random flag value flag 1 value 1,6 however i would like to know how to do it with only lua. Maybe use mist to put these groups into a table and then use that table to spawn them at random 1 or maybe 2 at a time. does anyone have any examples? I keep getting errors and there seems to be no hope in sight
