Stutters, freezing, crashes. where's 2.8 or 3.0.... Here's another log very unstable dcs.log

Have done multiple clean and repair, short and long. Removed the one F-16 skin I had and the kneeboards I'd made. No help just tried again. 5 freeze ups in three minutes. DCS is unplayable. How to get back to 2.8.....

2.8 was great; never an issue. Updated to 2.9 and screen freezes every few minutes, freezes lasting 5-10 seconds with the little spinning blue wheel telling me to wait. Then often crashes at various points during game. When screen frozen, gameplay continues. Sometimes multiplayer has no sound. Latest crash log attached dcs.log Have done multiple clean and repair, short and long. Removed the one F-16 skin I had and the kneeboards I'd made. No help

In multiplayer I have to remove HighDigitSams otherwise I'm a 'tainted client' "models/5v55r @ c:/users/apex gaming pcs/saved games/dcs.openbeta/mods/tech/highdigitsams/shapes" I've uninstalled HighDigitSams, downloaded the latest, installed, and same issue.

See page C-12. If you're damaged and your fuel is bleeding out it may not be over. Firewall it for speed and altitude while you still have fuel then coast down, and if you can glide over an airfield at 10,000'+ AGL you should be able to make a deadstick landing. If you're lower, try a teardrop approach crossing the field at ~135 degrees off the runway heading, or if real low you'll have to try a straight in. If you're high/have extra energy, use your boards to control descent rate. Good practice for airmanship - similar to the F-4's f-16 Block 50-52 Emergency Procedures.pdf

Great! Thanks!

Thanks - I've watched some vids but wanted info from the brain trust here.

Is the jamming pod worth carrying (as far as DCS is concerned)? I thought it was supposed to help deny a lock/range info at (say) 25+miles, or also to help break a lock once a missile goes active on you. But I don't know. Does anyone have some good info or advice on the pods? Has anyone done some experimenting in the game? I can see the pods being useful for SEAD and A2G, but does it help any in BVR? Thanks

See pic - Some radar tracks/datalinks have data above the track. What is this??? ED34 ? CK14 ? SE32 ? Thanks

Thanks!

On multiplayer, when landing to refuel and rearm, my fuel is not being topped off. Sometimes my droptanks are even empty after it says "complete". Ive selected the refuel n rearm stores with the droptank loadout Im carrying. Is it best to drop your tanks before landing? Thanks

Guess Im doing something wrong but cant get her to switch to Auto sequencing on the steerpoints. - dauber left to bring up CNI page - press button 4/STRP - dauber up or down to highlight MAN - dauber right to change it to AUTO ...but it doesn't change. Any hints? Thanks

Does the F-16 have Home On Jam capability, and if so what is the procedure. From what I've found here I don't think so but would like a definite answer. Thanks!

I don't know what corrupted my LUA files but I've recreated them and they seem to be working normally, so feel free to delete this post. Thanks
