I have installed DCS 1.5 Beta on steam and stand alone version. Everytime i try to go into a game, i crash when reaching "Loading Land surface". Same problem in both version. Quick search in the forum tells me no one else is having this problem. Is this my fault?? system info: Windows 8.1 64bit (Chinese Version) I5-4210U 8GB RAM AMD Redeon R5 240 here are the DCS log and crash log Logs.rar
