You shouldn't do - they are stored in the Saved Games > Config folder - I periodically take a copy of this so that I can restore it in the case of any issues

No - the errors in your log are seen by all of us. There is nothing obvious in there (to me at least). I have just tried mine in pancake mode and don't get the same stuttering (I run a 2060s) - did you do a clean install of the latest drivers and do you run any overclocking on the card or cpu? It might also be worth clearing your graphics card cache (C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NV_Cache)

What graphics card and drivers do you have? Also - please could you attach a copy of your DCS logfile to see if there are any clues in there

Does this happen with the latest OB (2.7.3.8494) - this log says you are running DCS: DCS/2.7.2.8165 Your logfile shows a disk being unplugged - do you remember if this is something you did 2021-06-29 06:47:29.554 INFO DCS: Screen: MissionEditor 2021-06-29 06:47:29.797 INFO DCS: Device unplugged: \\?\SCSI#Disk&Ven_MSFT&Prod_XVDD#1&5b4ab37&0&000000#{7fccc86c-228a-40ad-8a58-f590af7bfdce} 2021-06-29 06:47:31.196 INFO DCS: Device unplugged: \\?\STORAGE#Volume#{2e4fbc40-e08e-11ea-82f7-305a3a5a0ff3}#0000000000004000#{53f5630d-b6bf-11d0-94f2-00a0c91efb8b} Also, when you say DCS doesn't start do you mean you cannot start a mission? The logfile looks like you get into a mission and then close it. Does this happen with all maps, or just with Syria?

Try running a repair on DCS to see if that helps. Also, try deleting your FXO and metashaders folders

Are you flying the F-14? If so, this is a known issue and ED is working on it

Lack of NVG lighting is a known issue for DCS at the moment

Your crash log is saying it has an issue with edterraingraphics41.dll. Is this the same in the other crash logs? Which map(s) are you flying and what graphics settings in DCS?

i also use VR and one eye only

Do you have nVidia in-game overlay enabled? I know that this can sometimes cause issues Alternatively, there are pages such as https://thegeekpage.com/dxgi-error-device-removed/ that provide some possible solutions (all at your own risk of course)

You are having issues because you have a G29 steering wheel See this thread here

There is no obvious clue in there - I have tried my F-16 and TGP works for me in a simple test mission What mission are you trying to fly?

Just to close this off, Bailey has suggested that the interim workaround is to use his offline DCS CMS Editor rather than DiCE while he looks at how to resolve the DiCE issue on a permanent basis Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

Could you please attach your DCS logfile next time this happens. Even if the DCS error dialog doesn't appear the log file may give some clues Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

Have you tried the following suggestions from@Hollywood_315 in the FAQ thread? Symptom | Configuration window not open/visible using LCtrl-LAlt-C Cause | VAICOM profile not loaded Remedy | Load profile VAICOM PRO for DCS World.vap Cause | VA keyboard shortcuts disabled Remedy | Enable VA shortcuts Cause | Windows multi-monitor problem Remedy | Delete Config subfolder and restart Cause | Background app stealing keybinds Remedy | Close background app Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

You might need Easy Comms on for it to work at the moment Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

It is because REF is for refuelling etc.

I still get the bleep in the middle

Chief....page works for me

Having done a lot of watching it, 2.5.24 does show the same weird behaviour under the hood if you sit and watch it (if you don't touch any keys or buttons you get mission reset messages in the VA log every 2 minutes when Vaicom polls DCS). The difference between the 24 and 25 is that listening is suspended before these and reenabled afterwards in 24, when in 25 it suspends after these messages and so never reenables. I have spent soooo long watching these damn things today . With DiCE installed, both of them also bring up the mission restart messages on every other press of the TX button.

I don't think it is a fundamental issue with the server - I typically get 25 MB/s

All, @Hollywood_315 and I have spent quite some time in conversation today regarding the DiCE issues. I can now confirm (thanks to Hollywood's debugging) that it is definitely an issue with the way that DiCE manipulates DCS information to insert its CMS files. It does something with the lua file system that corrupts the real time state information read from DCS by Vaicom. This can only be addressed through changes to the DiCE mod.

Do you have the community Hercules mod? To install the old version download the .24 version from the Downloads page on Vaicompro.com and then replace the dll in the Vaicom install folder Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

I am still trying to investigate with @Hollywood_315 (making no promises about fixes but trying to understand the root cause).

All, It is confirmed there is a conflict, but DiCE is not on the list of mods guaranteed to be compatible with Vaicom (https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/232373-faq/?do=findComment&comment=4256673) Cheers
