THERE ARE STILL TWO FOLDERS WITH DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF DCS.EXE. C:\PROGRAM FILES\EAGLE DYNAMICS\DCS WORLD OPENBETA\BIN C:\PROGRAM FILES\EAGLE DYNAMICS\DCS WORLD OPENBETA\BIN-MT

hello https://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/

i got same message. i own FC3. but after the $9.99 purchase, the message went away. null

when you enable newly purchased modules, the game closes, then downloads new files to cover the enabled modules, then restarts. it may be worth a repair. it will not hurt anything. a full reinstall is not needed. a slow repair is better because it is an incremental process. it only downloads what is needed.

i was able to get into game. my first try, i had to enable the new modules and terrain. then game reset, did the additional files download. then i purchased the FC 4 for $9.99. closed and reopened DCS. enabled FC4. did the additional files download. all set. no errors or issues noted.

hello. i did a doc about this in 2021. https://pcwiseman.com/downloads_files/DCS_New_Computer.pdf

submitting the files is the right thing to do if you are concerned. if no one ever submitted flagged files, the files would never get checked.

i watched track and the UH-60 landed. i think AI logic makes the AC go to closest friendly airfield. in this case, the SC.

ah ha! power! i have seen that as an issue on the forums here. good luck. hope it works out for you.

hmm. i am running out of ideas. being that COD is also crashing, seems to be pointing to an issue outside of the games. maybe hardware going bad. not sure. what did support person say about chkdsk?

no problem. i mentioned the OC because your sig says you have "ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 OC". OC means the card is factory overclock.

the event logs do not show a crash with DCS that crashes "normally". meaning the DCS crash that creates the ZIP in the DCS Saved Games folder. in my case i had a crash 2/4/2024. there was a ZIP but nothing in the event logs. your DCS crash logs do not show the normal DCS crash. do you overclock? even factory OC on your GFX card could be causing an issue. you could set your nvidia driver to debug to see if it helps. take a look at the last bit on this page. https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3141/~/how-to-provide-valuable-feedback-to-nvidia

good to hear. i am a sysadmin, and troubleshooting sometimes goes back to "check everything again."

roger. good luck and clear skies.

indeed. cinebench does not stress your drives. (unless i am missing something) have you tried some other drive diag software? or just run chkdsk? have you checked in Windows event viewer for any errors happening at the time of the crashes?

unfortunately i am not seeing a lot of commonality between LOGs. and the LOGs do not indicate a crash as one would normally see. a crash starts with this line. have you emptied the FXO and METASHADERS2 folders in Saved Games? i do see some entries about having to recompile some shaders.

roger. i have that and will see how it goes. AH-64D_IA_MAR_Hitchhiker.miz

hello. there is a video on YT that may help with simhaptic. it looks like you can enable certain scenarios i.e. catapult. i do not have any haptic devices so i have nothing to test.

standard mission? what AC? please post and we can try to see what results we get.

hello, this may be related to your other post about AV. try again after removing unofficial mods, adding exclusions to AV and doing a repair.

there are lots of these reports in the forum. the problem is your AV is finding various DLLs in DCS and marking them suspicious. if you feel comfortable, add DCS folders to exceptions. this is also know to speed up the loading.

news about the delay (and other news) is on the main DCS website. or just keep playing. eventually it will update. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/

@Recon Stewart back in the day printers with too long of a USB cable could malfunction. i agree with suggestions to introduce a second hub.

you have another large monitor? from your sig you have a 13th gen CPU. any chance you are having the Pcore Ecore issue?
