    So I turned all of four ReShade presets off, and deleted fxo and metashader2 files. Restarted my computer too. In game I turned SSLR to off and SSAO to on. No change to the water banding.

    i do not have many other ideas for you.

    how about a slow repair? turning off upscaling in DCS? maybe renaming CONFIG folder to CONFIG.bak as a test. when you rerun DCS the folder will be recreated. you can copy over the CONFIG.bak\INPUT folder to new CONFIG folder. where your controls are. unfortunately for testing sake, I do not have any of this banding.

    these are the last lines before your crash. as @flappie mentioned, it may be a mod. you should as a test disable all mods and then run another repair. you may also want to try and rename the saved games\dcs folder to saved games\dcs.BAK. then rerun dcs. then you can move your controls over.

    This specific issue was still not entirely fixed, it was reduced but not fixed, for the OP the issue is from his usage of ReShade, for support he needs to disable all of those stuff and delete fxo and metashaders2 

    i posted look into ReShade as a possible cause 3/22/2024. deleting contents of the shader folders is always a good tip.

    Where did you see 32GB RAM ??  I actually have 128GB...

    Should I up my pagefile to 128GB ?

    oh lol sorry. i was looking at a log for someone else. if you have 128 then no need. i too have 128 but still have a 32 pagefile.

    can you share a log from when the mission gets stuck?

    Well it worked, kinda. I should give more info about the problem i have had for this week. sometimes when i run dcs mt non vr it works but when i try to join a server it sometimes freezes on the -loadterrain-. and other times it does load in and nothing is wrong. but every time the game freezes als -loadterrain- it only works again after i repaired dcs. I have been looking for a wile on forums if anyone else has had the same problem as me. unfortunately it doesn't give a crash log wen it freezes so i cant give you that.

    i had a crash once that turned out to be an external program. after that i could not run DCS. i discovered that my CONFIG (or something in it) got corrupted. i make a backup of my CONFIG folder after every change with DCS Witching. all i had to do was replace the folder and i was back up and running. so perhaps you are experiencing something similar.

    Was that response intended for me? I don’t understand what any of that means. 

    i helped on the post flappie linked but never got any feedback from the OP.

    see if anything there helps.

    essentially rename \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts to \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts.bak. retry dcs.

    Hello!

    DCS is crashing when I trie to load into Multiplayer on a server where a friend of mine is the privat server. Singleplayer missions work normal (I created testmission myself in ME). But also Singleplayer missions made by Squeaky are crashing - this one for example: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3332912/

    I tried removing mods (only used DCS-DTC and SRS) and a Repair without success. I attached the zipped log package from DCS.

    Please help, Thank you!

     

    hello. it looks like you are using winwing exports

    2024-03-24 16:09:53.188 INFO    WWT (Main): Winwing export installed!
    2024-03-24 16:09:53.192 INFO    WWT (Main): Export start!

    these errors are last thing before your crash. 

    post your EXPORT.lua

    OR

    try to rename your Saved Games\DCS and run DCS again. just as a test. if it works then there is likely an issue in those folders. you can then copy your CONFIG folder back over to the newly created Saved Games\DCS

    Thanks for the tips. I will give them a try. I had tried looking for other posts, but I wasn't sure how to describe what to search for so I missed them. Is there a better name/description for what I'm seeing?

    i searched in google "dcs stripes banding on water"

    'm relative still new to DCS and tweaking of various graphic settings. I've just started the A-10Cii Operation Persian Freedom Campaign and noticed the banding on the water near shore, I'm flying at 15K. My PC is an i5 12600K with a new Nvidia 4070-Super. Monitor is a Samsung G7 with a 165 Hz. With my settings I'm getting about an average 125 fbs. The only other thing I have is ReShade. So is this banding effect normal or are my settings causing it?

    hello and welcome to DCS. there have been other posts about this. your screenshots are worst i have seen. no fix that i could find. so looking at your settings compared to mine. try turning off SSLR. also turn off upscaling. FYI i do upscaling at the driver level outside DCS. and maybe disable reshade as a possible cause.

    I added Truman into the mission and it locked up. I deleted Truman and it loaded normally.  I added Stennis into the mission and it locked up. Deleted Stennis and it loaded normally again.

    post your MIZ file as @Flappie asked. then we all can try it.

    Is the PC connected to a surge protector?

    i was going to ask the same thing as a previous post i saw this was the corrective action. in all my years in IT (coming up to 35), i never heard this before. but not impossible i suppose. another reason to have a good UPS and not use a surge protector. UPS does a good job of conditioning power.

    Its not hardware and by my original post I have gone through all possible hardware testing. DCS is the only game this happens with and only with the latest version. I've been playing DCS with the this RIG for over a year now. Is there a way to go back to 2.8?

    the play time lasted longer but Im still getting BSOD.

    log still does show a crash. there is lots of log stuff i have never seen. do you have any mods? you should remove them and run a repair. you may also want to check windows event logs for the BSOD message. you could have a hardware issue.

    I have confirmed this to be the case with a few of the maps. Have not checked other aircraft just yet though.

    sorry. i do not have the huey. are you having these troubles in just the huey? any other aircraft having the issues?

    Not sure why there's a difference, but using the Communication Radio menu -> Ground Crew -> Rearm and Refuel leads to a different window than Left-Alt+'

    If you use L-Alt+' sometimes you will get no response from the ground crew. And yes, I tested engines off, door open, as well as running with radios on. This particular situation was a hot start helicopter, a Huey to be specific. You just hear the pilot requesting the services.

    Without changing anything else, if you use the Radio menu, they respond with COPY right away.

    Is it not just two methods going to the same place? One using the Radio menu, the other using a Keybind?

    hello. the key \ is for ground crew commo. those keys you mention and the HOTAS are in air commo. unless i am misunderstanding your question.

    Here it is

    the log you provided does not show a crash though it does end abnormally. try to rename your DCS folder within Saved Games to .BAK. retry DCS and a new folder will be created. you will need to copy over your controls.

    look in \Saved Games\DCS\config\ it may be named openbeta and copy INPUT folder over into the new DCS\CONFIG folder. let us know.

    I am constantly getting Blue Screen Of Death crashes with the latest version. I have ran full memory diagnostics, check every disk, multiple version of video drivers, sfc ( system file checks ), OS Reformat and Reset, and a Full clean install of DCS. The stop error is either a Critical Process Stop message or a 0xc000021a stop code, nothing get written to the event log besides the improper shutdown message on restart.

    I have ran 3DMark 4k Extreme bench tests and a 4k Extreme Stress Test without issue. Other stressful games also rung without errors.

    2.9 in general has been a major hit on my system and this latest patch has simply killed my ability to play the game for more than an hour because of the crashes.  I watched a YT video one some changes you have made to "optimize" video performance so I thought I'd post this on the forum. Is there a way to revert back to 2.8?


    Hardware is a custom built PC.
    ASUS TYF Gaming Z790 Plus Wifi Motherboard BIOS 1641
    Intel i9-13900K CPU
    128GB G.SKill Memory
    Nvidia 3090 FE Video w/551.76 GR Drivers
    2TB WD Black M.2 nVME Disk for OS and DCS
    There are other nVME and SSD drives on the system.

     

    hello. please attach the latest ZIP and dcs.log for further analysis. they can be found in folder \Saved Games\DCS(.openbeta)\Logs

    After I wrote this, I tried a repair and that didn't help either.  Its weird that the release is ok but ob is not.  I'd expect it to be the opposite in this version anyway.

    thanks

    there is a separate saved games folder for each install of DCS. even though there is only one version, you originally had two versions. so there is some difference within the two saved games folders.

    unless you plan to use an older release before they were unified, just use the version that works.

    if you really want to fix it then rename the broken CONFIG folder and copy the working CONFIG folder to the where the broken install is in saved games.

    Thanks for the suggestion, which .lua are you referring to?

     

    hello. the LUA is options.lua found in CONFIG folder in Saved Games. in that file about line 472 "["switches"] = 300," when i made my change to options, the file saved.
