I had a personnel EUREKA moment with DCS last night! Before this happened my game was running poorly with stupid long load times and crashing out on occasion,including no ability to join the big busy servers like 104th or Buddyspike. :evil: Through process of elimination and a lot of frustration i rejected most of the reasons and remedies given on other Forums. I have a good powerful rig with plenty RAM and quality graphics cards so this is not the problem,my internet has been upgraded and again plays no part in my problem. So either the game is bugged or its a bad install? Well looking at the online lobbys i saw in the big-busy servers contained 20,30,40 players so i concluded NO to the game being bugged ! So a bad install? My original DCS ran on my C Drive (SSD) perfectly. When the update to 2.5 happened i discovered i never had enough room on the Drive so installed on my D Drive (Harddrive) From day 1 i had lots of problems with the end result i bought a new bigger,faster SSD (G Drive) hoping this was the cure? For XXXXX sake no!!! Exact same problems as with using D Drive this was upsetting. Please go to this site --- https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 From the line --- Opening a Command Prompt work down.. Basically open the Command prompt enter CMD You should see somthing like this --- <root>/Users/<username>” or “<root>/Documents And Settings/<username>” The root must be in the drive which contains your saved games folder ,for me this is C/Users/<username> My game being installed on my G Drive showed G/Users/<username> so i changed it!! Type: x: in the Command prompt Press Enter. Where x = the Drive Letter you Installed DCS World Onto. so x for me is C now it looks like this C/Users/username Started the game immediately, tried to log into 104th with no mucking about and it loaded beautifully!! Repeated a number of times and with great results. I apologise for being so long winded and hope this might prove usefull to the guys? This is my first post on this forum Thanks Gary/Thurmann
