Insonia's post in DCS Crashes (unplayable on my systems, long time issue) was marked as the answer
D:\Steam\steamapps\common\DCS A-10C Warthog\ C:\Users\bugfishtm\Saved Games\DCS Warthog\ It's a legacy "Digital Combat Simulator: A-10C Warthog" from 2012. Depot 61012 (Digital Combat Simulator: A-10C Warthog english) · SteamDB
Support might dropped. and I doubt many people still remember those logs or do anything about it.
Follow the steps to repair the game:
Steam Support :: Verify Integrity of Game Files (steampowered.com)
delete C:\Users\bugfishtm\Saved Games\DCS Warthog\
There is time period in the past allow player transfer their old "Digital Combat Simulator: A-10C Warthog" to "DCS World". If you never did that. try contacting the ED support team and asking them nicely whether they can give you a new A-10C license or discount so you can play it on "DCS world"
Many old games share the same fate. Have a difficult time running on a modern system. if you insist on playing retro versions of games. Try to find and play it on an old machine with old hardware and drivers for best compatibility.

Insonia's post in move DCS window? was marked as the answer
Yes.
you must set your vertical resolution lower than your native resolution. Otherwise, DCS will run as borderless mode.
DCS option menu, resolution setting allows you type any custom resolution. select the number then replace with any number you like.
Your target height should be 1440-"windows taskbar height"-"windows title bar"

Insonia's post in DCS freezes without crash when loading the mission editor / starting new mission / opening a mission was marked as the answer
Please remove your user mods first.
The log isn't helpful when custom asset throw lot errors. We can only assume those ones were the culprit if you were not in clean configurations.
Just renamed your saved game/dcs folder and start over. If it's working again then you can slowly move your old mod back one by one and isolate the faulty ones.

Insonia's post in Mission Editor Can't Load Aircraft was marked as the answer
Do a slow repair first.
LUACOMMON (Main): Error: GUI Error: [string "./MissionEditor/modules/me_aircraft.lua"]:849: assertion failed! local defaultFrequency, defaultModulation = getDefaultRadio() assert(defaultFrequency ~= nil) 849:assert(defaultModulation ~= nil) Remove those mods:
C:\Users\micha\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods/aircraft/A-4E-C C:\Users\micha\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods/aircraft/a-29b-community-2.9.0.47168ob/ C:\Users\micha\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods/aircraft/a-29b-community-2.9.0.47168ob/ Although the error is from me module, but apparently the game is unable to get the radio information from units DB which is the cause.
just repair the game

It doesn't not mean the program execute the AmdPowerblabla .
'AmdPowerXpressRequestHighPerformance + 0x1376375" Is 20407157 bytes far far away from it.
It's just a pointer in the stack can be anything.
And op your zip is corrupted. No one can trace bug. Please try reproduce another.

Insonia's post in Winwing throttle 4 times in my settings-options-controls- was marked as the answer
Direct input API only supports 8 axis per device. supports up to 128 buttons per device. But a lot of games can only recognize 32 per device.
It's a Microsoft thing, Users or OEM cant do too much about it. When it has too many axis and buttons, it must be separated. Or it has to lose functionalities.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/desktop/ee416842(v=vs.85)
Winwing seems to be made specifically with DCS in mind, but aside from DCS so few games have full Dinput support. Most games only support 32 buttons. so for compatible reasons. It changed to 4X32 mode by default. If you only play DCS and IL2 etc.. you can switch it back to single mode via their software.

Insonia's post in What is the (x,y) map location of units from a mission.lua file based on? was marked as the answer
They are meters offset from the origin.
The game converts between x,y and LatLon via "convertMetersToLatLon(x,y)" and "convertLatLonToMeters(lat, lon)" functions, which calls the C++ function in lua "terrain" module.

Insonia's post in Cant load missions/mission editor was marked as the answer
the thing that should happen after your last log entry is DCS precomplie metashaders. Your DCS may halt before or during the shader compling.
Alright, since you already did those:
try update and make a clean graphic driver install. shader is complied by graphic driver

Insonia's post in DLSS issue was marked as the answer
wrong section indeed.
you need use MT(multithread preview) launcher to start DCS
It requires an NV driver that version >450, just install the most recent one.
you said steam:
If you still unable to use DLSS/DLAA. Please post your dcs.log in the forum.

Insonia's post in Obtaining name of a group dynamically spawned by MIST was marked as the answer
cloneInZone returns the func teleportToPoint() -> func dynAdd(ng) -> returns the "newgroup", a table copy of whatever passing though.
which means this table follows this structure:
groupData = { ["visible"] = , ["taskSelected"] = , ["route"] = { }, -- end of ["route"] ["groupId"] = , ["tasks"] = { }, -- end of ["tasks"] ["hidden"] = , ["units"] = { [1] = { }, -- end of [1] }, -- end of ["units"] ["y"] = , ["x"] = , ["name"] = "", ["start_time"] = , ["task"] = "", } So the name is "NewGroupName.name"

your logs shows
YOU ARE NOT RUNNING THE MT.

You must use the steam launch select option to start MT:

Insonia's post in DCS Stable Version On Steam to 2.8.4.39731 - MT isn't available was marked as the answer
steam is not behide but rather a human error they forget update the steam app launcher info.
bin-mt is already there.
steam fetch the option then stored in appinfo.vdf
appinfo.vdf governors the executable path and args. and it updates every single time when steam launches.
Steam cant excute different binary w/o fallingback to default one. And ED drm prevent any executable swap, so swap bin-mt and bin folder wont work
so at aleast current ob is same as stable. switch to ob if you want use bin-mt version
ED please fix this?
