this is likely where your problem lies. question. does the system always give you the results you wish when windows display settings are properly configured?

i suppose you could try to use Process Monitor when you run dcs. it will keep track of files that are accessed when the sim runs. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procmon

c'est un plaisir pour moi de vous aider. revenez si vous avez d'autres questions.

le dossier appelé BIN est préféré. le dossier appelé BIN_MT disparaîtra bientôt.

la première chose que je vois est d'exécuter DCS.EXE à partir du dossier BIN. la deuxième chose à faire est de désactiver les MODS non officiels. puis exécutez une réparation complète. assurez-vous également d'avoir des exclusions antivirus pour le dossier d'installation de DCS et les jeux sauvegardés de DCS. 2025-07-12 20:07:37.750 ERROR EDCORE (4388): Failed to move C:\Users\brank\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Tracks\Multiplayer\WWX2 - Battle of Tinian v1.1.6 - Light Rain High-20250712-215227.trk.writing to C:\Users\brank\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Tracks\Multiplayer\WWX2 - Battle of Tinian v1.1.6 - Light Rain High-20250712-215227.trk: Accès refusé.

sorry to hear you are having issues again. i think it is best to try to get just your normal monitors working to your liking. then add the other items one at a time. also. it is very important to get all the hardware recognized by windows. and being an IT guy, you should always keep windows updated. any problem with an update can be corrected or later there will be another update to correct a previous update. MS tries to be generic because they cannot possibly know about all the gadgets. also it is the 3rd party that is responsible for their stuff. with that in mind, see if the 3rd party has updates.

here is a screenshot of my DCS folder in Saved Games. anything can go in the missions folders, including folders that can group together similar missions. null

bon jour. veuillez joindre votre DCS.LOG du dossier Parties sauvegardées. Il contiendra plus d'indices pour que nous puissions résoudre le problème. please attach your DCS.LOG from Saved Games folder. it will contain more clues for us to troubleshoot.

LOOOOOL showing your age Max.. (me 2)

oh max. if we had money for every time you told people this, we could meet in Fiji for some rest.

hello. your problems appear to be video card and or drivers. before the crash there are hundreds of this error prior. DX device removed. Reason: 0x887A0006 starts at 2025-07-10 16:12:07.222 then this 2025-07-10 16:12:12.713 INFO EDCORE (4984): C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll this could be overclocking on video card, including factory OC. it could be a driver issue. or at worst a malfunctioning card. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/startup/#3312253

i was impressed watching the video. the images from the STP looks great. good job ED.

if it matters, g-hub uses 70 MBs of memory. with only 32 GB of RAM installed, i get your worry. honestly helping all these users i have over the years, the one thing that everyone should do is pile as much RAM into their computers as they can. i personally spent extra when i got this PC in 2021 to get 128 MBs. i literally have no issues with DCS whatsoever.

another idea is whether F7 could be a hot key for an external program. example taking a screenshot or recording a video.

have you installed the G-hub software? i read the mouse specs as default rate of 1000. that is my G502 was set at. null

hello. since this post is marked solved, you should raise your own thread. make sure you post your latest DCS.LOG.

hello again, this is my nslookup results. i have verizon in eastern US. Default Server: dns.google Address: 8.8.8.8 > www.digitalcombatsimulator.com Server: dns.google Address: 8.8.8.8 Non-authoritative answer: Name: digitalcombatsimulator.com Address: 93.115.211.146 Aliases: www.digitalcombatsimulator.com > api.digitalcombatsimulator.com Server: dns.google Address: 8.8.8.8 Non-authoritative answer: Name: api.digitalcombatsimulator.com Address: 185.195.197.20 maybe change your DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and see what happens.

hello. this might be your AV blocking files. you can add exception in AV to exclude DCS folders as a test. it could also indicate a hardware failure. you can also try running CHKDSK on your SSDs. also look in window event viewer for error occuring at the same time as when this log was generated. DXDIAG MAY OFFER SOME CLUES TOO.

hello. you will need to explain further. i am unsure what you mean.

good to hear. glad to help. not sure why, though sometimes things become corrupt in the saved games folder. the process of running DCS even changes files in those folders. there is a utility called "DCS Update Witching Utility by Bailey" i use. install it and run it before each update. you can make ZIP backups of important files, etc. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3315428/

by chance have you edited your HOSTS file? there was a strange issue previously, that a workaround was to edit this file. C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

hello. someone will figure it out. my suggestion is to rename the Saved Games\DCS folder to DCS.BAK. then run DCS. a new folder will be created. the folder will be recreated. then copy your inputs from the backup folder. \Saved Games\DCS.bak\config\Input to the new folder. i feel something is amiss in options.lua.

hello. i suggest you post up your DCS.log from the session that hangs. without seeing the log, i guess DCS is hanging because the resolution you are using is not compatible with the display. post your monitor model too.

haha! "i am here for help, but i do not want anyone's suggestions..."
