Thanks to everybody for the help! Billeinstein, that worked! Changing from Japanese IME to English input made the modules load properly (weird bug, for which I wouldn't have thought to try that solution). - PitbullVicious

Cheers, StandingCow. I tried to have a quick look at the Japanese forums I could find via Google, but there didn't seem to be any discussions on 1.5 beta.. Seems that the Japanese community is rather small or their online presence is rather limited (or I just can't Google very well ;) ). - PitbullVicious

Hi, I'm having problem loading some modules in the 1.5 open beta and I was wondering if this has anything to do with Japanese Win 7 version. The loading of the logs stop on the line with information about unicode resource loading for DX, so I was wondering if this is a locale / language related problem (I've ran into those earlier with Japanese Win 7). So, is anybody using Japanese Win 7 and does NOT have these problems (so I could eliminate this possible reason)? More details here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=149112 - PitbullVicious

Tested with both open beta update right after release and with the current downloadable version (fresh install) and also Steam version to some extend (could produce the same problem with MiG-21bis on Steam). Following modules cause DCS loading to freeze in the same position: Hawk MiG-15bis L-39C C-101 Bf-109K-4 MiG-21bis Following modules work without problems: A-10C F-86 Flaming Cliffs FW-190D9 Ka-50 Mi-8TV2 P-51D Su-25T TF-51D Uh-1H No crash or error, game just freezes during loading (no black screen, no logo). DCS.exe is running in the task manager (see attached picture). dcs.log will always stop after line with the above mentioned modules: "00000.414 UNKNOWN WinMain: ./MissionEditor/data/NewMap/classifier.lua loaded" I've attached an example of dcs.log with only the free modules included (successful start, filename "dcs_no_modules_running.log", see line 132) and freeze after installing the Hawk module ("dcs_after_hawk.log", see line 143). Note that user name is masked with XXXXXXXXXXXXX.

To the best of my knowledge nobody has reported this issue so far, although I can reproduce it consistently. I'm using a Japanese Windows version and the line after the point which the loading stops should be as follows: "00000.560 INFO DXRENDERER: Creating Resource "Unicode" of type 5" But this line does not appear when the loading hangs. - PitbullVicious Logs.zip

When you cycle to home from work and run past an interesting restaurant / bar and think about clicking the "MK" button to leave a mark point so you can find it easily later... Happened to me this week :P

I would marry and bear the children of the designer team that would model the Finnish version of B-239 with quality equal to the Mig21.
