OK - I did a total re installment of Openbeta 2.5.6 and so far no crashes... BUTT!
strangely enough - getting into a flight is still a bit awkward it goes like this:
1. pick a mission (single or campaign)
2. go into mission planer - choose a loadout
3. hit fly
4. you get an outside view of a random A/C with no ability to get in your cockpit.
5. hit quit
6. do the process again - and then you WILL start normally inside your cockpit
so- what goes?

I sniffed a little in my crash log and found two items that maybe related to the crashes:
1. a line saying: "AmdPowerXpressRequestHighPerformance + 0xBC9D42" just before the crash
I have no AMD in my computer I find it weird that DCS code "requests" it
2 another thing in my crash .dmp log : found a file called "f18c_cpt-glass_canopy.dds"
could it be related?
I'm reaching for straws here...:cry:

Thanx BIGNEWY
Another super weird issue I have is when I enter a mission (SP) and hit "FLY" I enter an external view of another aircraft of the red side (MiG 29 and such) as if I an in "F2" view. When I hit the F2 key and scroll through all aircrafts till I get to see mine I see it from F2 view but I can't enter the cockpit. I am forced to look at it as if an AI is flying it. doesnt matter if I hit F1 - I am still in F2 view. Only when I hit "quit" and exit the mission, then enter it AGAIN I can start it in the cockpit.
wierd or what?
*EDIT* - seems that this phenomena only happens when I enter the mission editor to change weapons load end such. It doesn't happen when I enter the mission "as-is".

Thanx BIGNEWY both my windows and GPU drivers are up-to-date. the fact that these crushes are not random but consistent (happen in every mission and module) and DO NOT happen in the stable version means IMHO that it's got to do with the the 2.5.6 version itself and not other factors.

still crashing after 2.5.6 last update
Updated my 2.5.6 to last version: 2.5.6.43872
No change - game crashes about 5 mins into flight. :cry:
log attached.

2.5.6 unplyable for me. Crashes in mid flight every time in any module. Cleared fxo and metashaders, deleted saved games- and still crashes like a led zeppelin.

thanx for the reply my gpu driver is up to date.
the crash goes like that:
1 black screen - sound goes on
2. loading cursor appears on the black screen - going forever.
3. have to press esc. for a few times.
4. have to go alt-ctrl-delete and ens task in task manager.
regards
after updating 2.5.6 I think I'm getting to many crashes.
as many as 30%-50% of my flights (doesn't matter if it's F-14/18 or an A-10) end up in a complete FREEZE. I have to end task in task manager to exit.
I know it's a beta but still...
just me?

got the same error too with Kasparsky. try to exclude the whole folder but it keeps quarantining the worldgeneral.dll again and again. only way I found around it is by "pausing protection" all together.
anyone got a clue here?

BTW - didn't find a DCS.exe in the bin folder. just a DCS_updater.exe.
Thanks sir, it’s just that in Wags tutorial he said sensor select switch depress and not SCS but I had the feeling he means SCS. Having said that, I managed to go mode 4 interogate on ACM mode depressing SCS , but not in TWS.
