hello. MP missions especially need a lot of memory. Ram is definitely the best way. it is literally the easiest thing to upgrade. you just have to make sure you purchase the correct type for your system. i got my computer 3 years ago with 128 GB. it was well worth it. i am glad you are working again, and i am glad to help. if you want to pursue RAM for your computer, let me know.

Norton Antivirus tripping on New version of DCS.EXE
silverdevil replied to DishDoggie's topic in General Bugs
to add to @Flappie, @Hiob, and @Ithronwise state. after all, MS has a unique perspective on their OS and what affects it. MS AV is to the point of being as good as any of the others one has to buy. and it is totally free. -
no problem. good luck and clear skies.

hello. just before your crash you get this line 2024-04-17 18:45:50.955 ALERT EDCORE (8784): Out of memory in ed_malloc for 5592592 bytes. you should increase your pagefile since you have only 32 GB of RAM. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/increase-page-file-size-virtual-memory-windows also you can lower your preload radius within DCS options.

hello. i believe you are having terrain shader issues. i suggest renaming the DCS folder in Saved Games to DCS.BAK. then rerun DCS to let the folder be recreated. also you need to be patient and let the shaders compile. it may take awhile. also add exceptions to your AV software. i run defender and these are the folders i exclude from scanning.

hello. i am not experiencing this issue. do you have any suspicions of what the message is or what is creating the message? maybe it is an outside application? that is what it sounds like to me. are you able to capture a video of the anomaly? it will be difficult to reproduce.

i boresight on my own airfield. i take off and go to several miles away, circle back and boresight on something on the base. this fixes the issue of the desert being devoid of objects.

update requires more space than available
silverdevil replied to FreTo036's topic in Installation Problems
hello. what size is your drive? how much free space? how much room is the current install using? my DCS is using 528 GB. -
hello. please attach your DCS.LOG. have you done a repair? have you checked if AV is blocking anything during the update? also remove unofficial mods before the repair.

to add to what @rob10 and @The_Nephilim stated, check to see if you have FAST STARTUP enabled. if it is enabled, turn it off for testing. a restart and shutdown/restart react differently. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/setup-upgrade-and-drivers/updates-not-install-with-fast-startup just a thought.

hello. save a track to share here to see if others get same results. also see if you can share mission. it looks like you are using the gazelle. not everyone will have this module. we can switch out to an AC we have to take a look.
-
most definitely. the best choice is to get as much physical RAM as possible. when i bought this system, during COVID, i maxed everything. i was saving at least $1000 a year in gas working from home.

these are the recommended folders to your exclusions. this is my defender settings. null this is what i could find. i do not use mcafee. unsure of its validity. https://download.mcafee.com/products/webhelp/5/affid/756/1033/GUID-BA648B78-244A-47F1-8AD6-4A57BA8955BC.html

hello. when in options on whatever AC you have shown, doubleclick on the joystick column header. then type whatever you want. then save.

hello. if you are using a quest headset, this is your issue. planned DCS patch tomorrow will fix.

hello. check this post. the last error prior to the crash 2024-04-08 14:54:40.653 WARNING BACKENDCOMMON (4456): Need to reprocess [DDS] image '/textures/iso_container_n.dds' doing the rename will effective cause DCS to recompile shaders.

Can only open DCS "in mobile mode" and not in VR
silverdevil replied to SlimSim's topic in General Bugs
hello. the quest problem is supposed to be corrected in the next patch for DCS. the version meta patch v63 is causing the problem. if you are able to roll back to v62, give it a shot. -
DCS MT VR not start after last update from META for OCULUS RIFT 1
silverdevil replied to irq11's topic in Game Crash
hello. the answer you seek is in this post. -
VRG skip, ask for support if you own VRG helmet
silverdevil replied to Bluenose's topic in Game Crash
hello. currently, and hopefully fixed by next update, oculus patched / updated their end which broke interface with DCS. search for "DCS PTC v63 update" -
Can only open DCS "in mobile mode" and not in VR
silverdevil replied to SlimSim's topic in General Bugs
hello. this could be an issue within your saved games folder. one never has to reinstall DCS. running a repair will essentially reinstall anything amiss. what VR headset do you use? -
good to hear. you should mark your post as solution. perhaps it will help another user.
-
hello. please post dcs.log for analysis.

Stuttering in relationship with TrackIR/Windows10/DCS 2.5
silverdevil replied to Repsol2k's topic in Game Performance Bugs
hello. indeed this is an old post. 4 years later. you should start a new topic since this one is so old. however there are lots of active post with the same symptoms as you. some people have an issue and others do not. no magic bullet that i know.
