i just report it to ED: If you feel really concern about this problem you should report it too at https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/fr/support

I don't think so. This has not been corrected as far as i saw even before the last update.

I already did it too. I manage this with usb log viewer, and i never got a usb disconnection despite the input creation by DCS. Its not the case since it lags like hell when it happens. I confirm at 100% that these huge lags happened because of the input creation. I watch the dcs log in real time and lags are 100% correlated with input creations. AND again I (like many others) dont have usb disconnection. Since this inputs creations are also triggered when pressing alt+enter this issue is more related on how ED developed the game. Windows has nothing to do in it i think. If DCS offered an option to deactivate the input creation during the game, we would be all fine. How can we alert DCS on that?

My laptop keyboard is definitely not usb and looks like this. As mentioned in the device manager it is plugged into a specific keyboard port. Not in this thread as far as i read. But in the end we can split this problem in at least 2 categories: those who experience usb disconnection and those who are not (like me and others). If the people without usb disruption experience the input creation issue as same as those who experience usb disconnection THEN we can conclude that the input creation issue is not related to an USB issue. If you switch between windows mode to full screen by pressing alt+enter it triggers all the input creation events. There is no reason to recreate inputs at that moment. Then there is no doubt it is a DCS issue. Surprised? no... What next then? can we alert ED about that?

You have a real issue with usb ports then. In your case the problem will happened for every games. But in my case, as the others players reported, its not a USB issue. Its seems to be more sneaky. I also found out that when switching from windows screen to full screen there are input creation in the logs of all my usb devices (despite no disconnection is recorded in the usb log view). Also, as i said previously it doesn't make sense that my keyboard can be disconnected-reconnected since my PC is a laptop! The question to ask now is why there are inputs creations when switching from windows view to full screen? Are you experiencing the same when you start DCS in windows mode and then pressing alt+enter?

What do you mean exactly when you say "i get the disconnects even without DCS running." ? Does your DCS is not running at all? In that case you can't have input creations in DCS logs. Or did you noticed disconnection in usb viewer tool? (which everyone here doesn't experienced)

You are right. But everything possible has already been tried on windows (windows 10, 8.1, and 7) including the USB log viewer by others dude here with no success. On my side, except the logviewer and the realtek tricks, i tried all the others solutions with no success : - Changing the entry of every usb port in regedit with usb deview changing from 1 to 0. - Disabling the usb shutdown in windows device management for every usb devices. - Preventing windows to shutdown usb devices in windows power management. - Updating my drivers' devices. Next time I will check the logviewer when using DCS (2.5) and tells if usb devices were disconnected during the play. Also something weird i noticed in the DCS log is the keyboard input creation while my keyboard device is not a usb device since i have a laptop (a good one). On the other hand, my trackir camera is a usb device using the facetracknoir program but never get input creation in the logs unless i unplug it intentionally. Another weird and annoying thing is when i use the alt, ctrl or shift keys when the game started these keys are simply not working inside the game. For example alt+F1 to switch from cockpit view to transparent view is not working. BUT when i check the keybinding and press the alt+f1 it retrieves the line associated to that key combination! what a troll seriously. To be able to use this keybinding in game, i have to re-create it. May be it is not related to our problem but who knows. I'll check logviewer also with another game such as arma3 with all the same usb devices connected and see if usb get disconnected too. If not then we would conclude that its 100% DCS fault and all fingers will be pointed to them.

thanks for helping

And one more customer having the same shit here. Today I had 10 "inputs creation" in less than 5 min during the game... I am literally at 0.5 fps when it happens which makes any actions impossibles in this condition. THAT'S WHY I'M NOT GOING TO BUY DCS MODULES ANYMORE (may be ed team will react this way). I prefer to keep my small purchase power for something which is worth it. I don't know if its a coincidence but it seems there is more inputs creation during combat phases. Beyond that, despite I read ALL the post of this thread and tried everything (except the Realtek thing), I have no clue why this is happening. I'm not hearing any sound from windows about usb deconnection then the problem seems to be related with DCS. I'm having this issue with DCS 1.5.8 and DCS 2.5 beta. I also noticed huge lags (30 seconds freeze) when I take screenshots especially the first screenshot. And the others looks smooth (= no lags).

Hi guys, I'm experiencing huge lags during the game and I discovered it's due to an "input creation" as mentioned in the log file: INPUT: Device [Keyboard] created deviceId = 44 INPUT: Device [Controller {6037F350-92A8-11e7-8002-444553540000}] created deviceId = 45 INPUT: Joystick created {6037F350-92A8-11e7-8002-444553540000}], ForceFeedBack: no I checked if my devices were disconnected due to a lose wire, but it's not the case. It's happening randomly, sometime at only 2 minutes interval, or at 20 minutes interval. There is no logic pattern in it. Does someone here had already experienced it?

As far as i remember the open conflict server was doing this. And as sslechta said, aerobatics server is doing it.

Feefifofum -> Exactly, i'm looking for an accelerated day/night cycle, and not for a moving speed time which would be really... useless lol

Hi, I would like to host a mission that will start at early morning and end at dusk. But I would like this mission to last only 4 hours. Does someone knows if we can make time flow faster when playing in multiplayer game? For example to set 1 hour = 2 hours in game.

Ty for the info. I'm actually running windows 7 pro with virtual box and i had activated the 3d acceleration. https://imgur.com/a/pEs4L By the way when i run the dxdiag command on the vm like you did for your screen shot, it gives the exact same : https://imgur.com/a/4JwrA And in the end, as mentioned at begining i have a DCS crash with this error in the log file: Is it absolutely necessary to install a gnome session on virtual box or we can manage to make the trick on windows 7 pro? Im not sure about what parameters to give to the VM to make it.

This thread is to HELP people who need to run DCS 2.5 on a virtual machine. Then posting here pretending you know everything while actually you have no idea about what you are talking make us lose our time. If you really opened the links provided by your google research, you would know that there is no answer about the compatibility with dx11 and a VM. Thats why i post here to find a solution, then please stop your spam.

Vmware, HyperV and virtualBox are NOT compatible with directx11. Actually in this thread no VM compatible with directx11 have been reported except a possible VM working with a gnome session. But I'm not going to learn Linux for 3 months and finally realize that this solution is not even compatible with directx11. It won't makes sense at all. That's why i was looking for further information about it. If you don't know how or are too lazy to answer, just don't post. This topic is already complicated enough.

What is a gnome session? can you provide a step by step explanation on how to achieve this? Does this solution could work on a VPS?

no its not that easy.

how much do you pay for using VMware with through pass gpu? At least if its not that expensive i can go for it may be.

What you are saying doesnt make sense: when i host a dcs mission on my pc, despite i dont have the harrier i can still host a mission with harrier slots and players can join it... Then i dont know what you mean here.

I dont understand what is the purpose of it. I'm looking for something EASY and with a STEP BY STEP tutorial. By the way it looks like we have to pay for the solution you suggest. I want something FREE. That's why i choose vitual box in first intention. But I dont know how to "passthrough" the gpu.

I already saw and follow what this post said but nothing still the same error. As far as i read, i need to "passthrought" gpu to the virtual machine but i have no idea how to do that, infos are very not easy to found

it seems nobody gives a shit on that

How to fix it on virtual box ?

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to run DCS on virtual box (with win7 pro installed) in order to host a server. But everytime i start DCS, it crashes. Here is what the log says: From what i see it is related to DXGI but I dont understand how to fix this. Does someone knows if we can run dcs on a virtual box? Do you have a solution to my issue? Ty for your help
