Fixed in today's OB update.

Flappie's post in Update Stable from open beta local files was marked as the answer October 4, 2021

Oui, monseigneur !
Create a text file named "dcs_local_source.txt". Edit it and add the full path to your OB folder (e.g. E:\DCS World OpenBeta ). Put this text file into your stable DCS root folder.

Flappie's post in Unable to save track was marked as the answer September 25, 2021

Please ensure your "Saved Games/DCS.../Config/autoexec.cfg" file does not prevent DCS from recording tracks:

disable_write_track = true
If you find this line, simply remove it.

Flappie's post in i can't select F14B/viggen from the us ?? was marked as the answer September 9, 2021

Have you by any chance clicked the "clock" icon at the bottom of the mission editor?

If so, click again and you will get your missing units back. It's called "History mode": it hides units and weapons that didn't exist at the time set in your mission.

Please, don't shout on the Internet. 😘

Flappie's post in Radio operation problem was marked as the answer August 19, 2021

Please try this:
Go to "C:\Users\username\Saved Games\", Rename "DCS..." into "DCS_backup" (do NOT delete it), Start DCS and try again (you'll have default settings and default controls). Once your test is done, you can remove the new "DCS..." folder and replace it with your backup folder from step 2.

Flappie's post in DCS Steam Edition (both OB and Stable) not responding and crash was marked as the answer July 19, 2021

Thank you. You're having the Logitech G Hub+G29 crash bug. There are 2 known workarounds:
either unplug your G29 racing wheel before launching DCS (I believe you can re-plug it once DCS has started but I'm not 100% sure). or shut down Logitech G Hub software before lauching DCS. More info here:

This issue was reported to ED devs.

GPU or CPU or RAM overclocking GPU or CPU or RAM undervolting (we've had a few cases since 2.7 came out) CPU clogged with dust Issue with GPU driver (try to uninstall it with DDU then reinstall it) Faulty or insufficient PSU NEW: conflict with Corsair iCUE

Hi Grontar. Here's your issue:

2021-06-28 19:52:11.954 INFO EDCORE: (dDispatcher)enterToState_:1 2021-06-28 19:52:12.201 ALERT Dispatcher: Error starting Game GUI: [string "./MissionEditor/modules/TableUtils.lua"]:3: assertion failed! 2021-06-28 19:52:12.202 INFO EDCORE: (dDispatcher)enterToState_:2
Try renaming this file: "C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS...\Config\options.lua" so DCS cannot find it. Name it anyway you like.
Then start DCS, which will create a brand new "options.lua" file.

Flappie's post in DCS openbeta. Crashing when loading a mission was marked as the answer June 19, 2021

OK, then please try emptying these folders (I know you may have already emptied some of them in the past):
C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NV_Cache C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS.openbeta Windows will probably prevent deletion of some files in NV_Cache: just hit "Ignore". This happens when Firefox, Chrome or other desktop apps using shaders are running.

Flappie's post in Performance issues since 2.7.2.7910.1 Open Beta update. was marked as the answer June 18, 2021

Thanks. Look no further: your pagefile is stored on your slowest drive. As soon as you move it to one of your other drives, DCS will be OK.
You can ask Windows to handle the pagefile automatically and reboot. Usually, it uses one of the fastest drive. If for some reason your pagefile stays on E:\, set the pagefile manually and place it to another drive.

Flappie's post in I'm lagging in multiplayer... was marked as the answer June 15, 2021

Many thanks. I see your pagefile is stored on an HDD (D:\) ,which is probably the source of your lag. Your C:\ drive is almost full (12 GB of free space).

This is what you need to do:
Free up some space in your NVMe drive (C:\) by moving some files to your D:\ Once you have enough free space in your C:\ (minimum 32 GB), ask Windows to move your pagefile to your C:\ drive. This should make things better for yor DCS sessions. On the long term, consider buying a new NVMe or SSD drive.
