I am glad you joined this thread, welcome! There must be an answer to this freeze on respawn somewhere...

Yes, LShift + R crashes it too... Out of interest, I started up my old install of stable DCS 1.8.1 and I can play that without problems. It's also nice to see trees and mountains, with openbeta1.9 i keep flying into stuff that my graphics are not generating I could try win10 to get in compliance with minimum system requirements, but my thoughts are that openbeta1.9 is a bridge too far for my hardware, regardless of what the crash is related to... Thanks much for your help, Flappie. I'll experiment a little more and close this thread if I don't come up with anything.

Thanks Flappy. I uninstalled Tacview, ran a slow clean, added your autoexec.cfg... and still the same crash/freeze happens on exit or restart. I attached the log. Is there another way to restart or quit? Maybe with a console command? I'd really like to find a fix or a work-a-round if possible. But the upside is that I can still play, everything runs well given my crappy outdated machine dcs.log

Thanks Flappie, I have a few developments to report: I disabled Tacview in DCS options, ran a short mission, game crashed, checked the log and it says Tacview was still running. I disabled Tacview in DCS modules (required a restart, Tacview is still there, but greyed out), ran a mission, crashed, checked the log and Tacview is still running. See attached log. I will try to remove Tacview from DCS manually and report back. dcs.log

I have no issues loading a mission and playing, the problem comes in when I want to quit (Esc > Quit), or I get killed and want to restart the mission (Shift+R). The screen freezes (no sound) and the only way out is Cntl-Alt+Delete and to either restart or sign out of windows. Attached is a log, any help would be much appreciated. 2.9.1.4 DCS Openbeta , iMac running Win 8.1, Intel core i5 2.9 GHz, 32GB RAM, NVidea GeForce GTX 660M 512MB Thanks! dcs.log

I used the lightest spring, and then used two zip ties to "shorten" the spring. Works great for a very loose stick which keeps its center.
