  1. Ok, I'm not quite sure this is the correct place to post / ask this, but here goes. I'm an ultra wide user. And I love it. But I have one problem, (actually a few but I'm not sure if the one is related to DCS or not, I'll ask at the end about that). So one advantage of the ultra wide is an increased FOV. More immersive and so on. But in DCS for some reason, instead of increasing the FOV, with the extra width the game seems to just stretch the side of the image. So if I slightly look to the sides, and catch my weapons in the sides of the screen, they're stretched length wise. It's like it's zoomed in. This is also seen on things like con trails and sorts that would be out of viewable range. If something is in front of me, and I know it, but can't see it, I'll put it in the corners so it's zoomed in and I can see it. It created a popping in and out effect on some stuff. Is there any fix to this, so I have a proper FOV that's not distorted? The other bug I have, I think it's a bug maybe.... Is when I'm flying at certain times and the lighting is in a certain place, the screen, and sometimes just the sky box goes black / flashes. It's like it can't display the image. Now I tried to record this, and if I do, the video file playback displays the image properly. So it flashes on my screen but not in the video. I was wondering if my monitor is having problems displaying some images with certain characteristics, but I don't know. Any thought on both of these would be awesome! Thanks
  2. Tried to update today. Got an error at the end containing Cant delete F:DCS world\Mods/aircraft/l-39C/Bin/L39C_protect.dll: (5) Access is denied. Tried a repair, and tried again with no luck. Any ideas? log file attached Got it fixed - restarted and deleted the l-39, reinstalled it and then updated. You can delete the thread.
  3. Greetings! I was having some computer trouble, and in the troubleshooting process, I reset windows / reinstalled. I did backup my controls before hand, but it seems that the controls aren't binding to what I had, they're defaulted. My guess is because the device ID's changed or something and DCS doesn't see them as the same controllers. Is there any way to get the controls back? I don't really want to have to remap everything...
  4. Ok, so I play online in the DDCS server or Blueflag. And my huge gripe that I have is that in GCI, I cannot see how many missiles are left in a unit. So we don't know if they need resupply or not. All I ask for, is that if I click a unit, where it gives me the unit info at the bottom, there be a section where it tells how the unit has x/x ammo remaining. Would make everyones lives soooo much better. ty.
  5. Tried updating to windows 10 in an effort to stop the crashing. No joy.
  6. the last log was Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. After looking, I don't think that has anything to do with it. I found this one: Log Name: System Source: Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power Date: 18/02/2018 4:51:58 PM Event ID: 41 Task Category: (63) Level: Critical Keywords: (2) User: SYSTEM Computer: *** Description: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first.

  7. Tried a clean install, success for 1 day and then it's hitting with the crashes again. Not sure how I can supply more info.
  8. After playing on the weekend, and being somewhat stable, it started crashing and shutting down my system again last night. It obviously did not fix the problem.
  9. So I MAY have fixed this. I deleted everything in my user\saved games\dcs.openbeta\ folder except for my inputs. Things seem to be working now. So my guess is when DCS created the files it screwed up some how. Forcing it to re-create the files might be the thing to do if you have this problem. I'll keep you posted if it crashes again.
  10. Is there a public bug tracker that I can see the status of bugs? I tried a few different servers, same problem with the crashing. Would just like to know ED are actually looking at the problem...
  11. Another crash. I'm done trying for tonight. But I'll be sure to post all my logs over the weekend. The game is literally unplayable, I'm just trying to give you as much info as possible. dcs.rar
  12. And another crash. Log file attached dcs.rar
  13. This is still acting up on me. latest log dcs.rar
  14. Hey, so I got it working. I tried repairing and had no success. So I ended up moving my mods folder. As soon as I did that they all showed up on the main screen again. Obviously with nothing installed though. I downloaded the smallest mod I could again to remake the folders and then I moved everything back. I downloaded Normandy again to recreate the terrains folder, and when I moved everything back, I noted that the first file it tried to overwrite was a different size. I kept the newly downloaded content and everything seems to be ok so far. If things go south I'll be sure to notify you here.
  15. So I fired up DCS to see if the patch fixed my crashing issue, and now when I load up, it shows I have zero modules installed. Well, rather the home screen shows no modules. It doesn't even list anything except the stuff that comes with 2.5. I went to the module manager and they all show there, but on the screen there are no mods. I joined a server and was unable to select any slots cause the game thinks I don't have the mods, but I do. Is this a known issue?
  16. Ok, so 2.5 so far has been hell for me. To start it off I was getting horrid FPS, with or without deferred shading enabled and AA off, the whole 9 yards. So I reinstalled, updated the video drivers, you know, the basic stuff. I got it running somewhat decent, but not great and tried multiplayer. Well holy crap that's a new bag of worms. When I join everything is normal, and then I select a plane, first I tried the SU25T, got off the ground and BOOM, hard restart. I checked ram use and it was way up at 15GB or so. Didn't think a lack of ram would cause something like this, but maybe. Tried again, and in the mirage 2000 as soon as I got in the pit, tried to rearm, BOOM, hard restart. I thought maybe it's something else in my system, power supply, video card, you know, hardware. Cause really, the issue seems hardware related. I threw in some more ram, no change. Still hard crash. So, I went experimenting. Tried the most demanding games I have. Not a single one caused a crash like this. Taxed the GPU as much as possible. Nothing. I don't understand it. If it were a power issue, loading the system should cause the issue in other programs, but it doesn't. It's only DCS and it really is game breaking. I'll try to do some more to narrow it down, but there's not much I can think of to figure it out. System is as follows CPU I7 4770k ram 32gb video card Radeon RX Vega 64 Windows 7 What else can I tell you.... help! edit: I don't know why my formatting didn't hold
  17. I think this is a little different. The stutter literally makes the game unplayable. If you have a fix for this, you push it out right away. It can't break it anymore than it already is. The way we see it now, they have a fix, but they haven't tested it yet to see if it works. So they want us to test it for a week and then, maybe, if it works they push it to stable. When you have a game breaking bug like this, you need to drop what your working on, fix it properly, and then, and only then, continue on your work. You need a stable product if you want it to sell, and this is anything but stable. General content, I would agree with you. It should be tested before going to release. Whether that is internally or external, well, that's not my place.
  18. There's a flying lancaster just south of me at the Hamilton Warplane haritage Museum. See it flying from time to time in the summer when people have big bucks to go up in it. If you go to the museum you can see it in the hangar. Pretty cool plane.
  19. Ok, so back when 1.56 was out, I had no problems what so ever. Game ran great. When 1.57 dropped, the Mi-8 started showing stuttering. But I don't mean stuttering in the sense that it was all the time. What I mean is the game would run fine for 2-3 seconds, at 70 fps, and then pause for about 1/4 - 1/2 of a second. As I'm sure you can understand, this is incredibly frustrating. I figured that it was a server side issue, as I only really play multiplayer. So I tried a different server. Same thing. Everywhere I go, when I fly the HIP I have these stutters. And let me tell you, trying to sling load with a heavy crate and having that happen, well, it's almost unplayable. I thought that it would get fixed, because everyone I talk to has the exact same issue. But nothing has happened, so I'm bringing it to your attention.
  20. ok, 2 things that I would like to share. 1- is it possible for us to get a despawn crate option in the CLTD menu? having to move when you spawn the wrong crate kinda sucks. 2- tried to deploy a strella. Set out the 3 crates about 15km from a farp, and when I unpacked, no unit showed up. I took off to see if maybe it was behind me or something and nothing was there. About 10 seconds later I just blew up for no reason. No hostiles around. I checked GCI after to see if the strella was under ground or something and nothing was shown on the map. I was on red, maybe it spawned blue and invisible? Would explain why I blew up...
  21. Ok, so this is probably something I'm missing, but I don't know what. I try to extend and retract the speed brakes with the lctrl B and lshift B bindings, but it doesn't do anything. I tried also binding it to my throttle and again, it did nothing. Now I CAN click the button on the throttle with the mouse, and it works fine. So I know that the jet or operating as it should. It's just the bindings won't work for some reason. I have this problem in both 1.5 and 2.0 Any thoughts? Edit: restarted the game and tried again and for some reason it works now. I don't have an answer.
  22. Hey there, so I'm having a crash that I'm hoping someone can help me out with. It happens about 85% of the time I die. I generally only play MP, not sure if that will matter or not. Anywho, every time I get shot down, and some times when I try to change slots / aircraft, the game crashes. I don't get much info on the crash, but when it does, it says the fault is coming from lua.dll. (I tried copying the exact text, but wiped the clipboard my mistake.) I'll post the exact details as soon as it crashes again. Anyone else have a problem like this or know anything?
  23. ok, some more information here. I went and tried to join a MP server, everything worked normally. I was able to enter and fly and had no problems. I then tried to go back and create a fast mission again. Went to the advanced tab and tried to generate a mission. It failed to generate a mission and noting happened. MP is all I really want tbh, but it would be nice to have everything working properly. System specs are as follows Intel 17 4770 AMD radeon 290 16gb ram, @ 1600 windows 7 64 bit OS is on a SSD while DCS is on a standard drive Need more detailed specs? Here are the logs Logs.zip
