2024-05-04 12:15:44.966 WARNING WORLD (Main): ModelTimeQuantizer: ANTIFREEZE ENABLED very little found about this message. i do not think it is what is making you freeze. have you ran a repair after removing mods? renamed scripts folder?
-
hello. indeed. this feature is only for MT. there will be no ST at some point. new features will not make it to ST. this feature is one that will not be part of ST.

sorry i was not very clear. my intention was to answer the OP question within the effects of DCS settings. misconfigured, the settings can surely affect performance. once a clean slate is established in DCS, we can work outside of DCS to look at graphics drivers & settings, windows settings, etc. after all, DCS is such a tender animal to most and many do not have the expertise to troubleshoot without some sort of outside help. maybe a good idea to put some limits on what servers should be presenting. or at least put some clear disclaimers in the official notices about the effects of MP. the published requirements for DCS mentions nothing about MP requirements, or how server sizing or missions depth affects performance. there are many folks playing a great sim that are not technically proficient and cannot fathom the differences between SP and MP performance. this is not meant to be a DCS bashing. i am a firm supporter of ED and DCS. i have over $1200 invested in modules, terrains, and campaigns (29 total). untold amount spent on hardware just to be able to play it. i think its great and getting better.

as max stated, one never has to reinstall the sim. all of the performance issues are located in the saved games folder for DCS. rename your \saved games\DCS folder to .BAK, then full repair. then run DCS without the \saved games\DCS folder. there will be a new DCS folder fresh. then copy over just the input folder from the old DCS to the same place in the new DCS \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\config\Input (my folder states openbeta but the idea is the same)

to assist @Flappie, here is a link to the procedure. i suggest "Ultimate" plan. https://systembooster.minitool.com/boost-pc/ultimate-performance-power-plan.html

solved DCS doesn't launch even on clean install
silverdevil replied to tacit rainbow's topic in Game Crash
i am honored defender is definitely better these days. in case you have not seen this, here is a screenshot of the exclusions. i saw a YT video of this procedure. another benefit i found was that my computer went from 2 minutes to get to menu to 30 seconds in DCS. null -

DX device removed. Reason: 0x887A0006 9x This week.

since this thread is 11 months old, you should start your own thread and attach your logs. -
i suggest getting the VD sorted and test. the errors only mention the VD. the VD just happens to be something the oculus needs. there were other problems with oculus after one of the DCS patches. the issue was supposed to be fixed after last DCS patch. if the fix of VD does not completely clear your issue, then reinstall the oculus apps.

i believe this has something to do with oculus quest vr.

hello again in the latest log there is a line 2024-04-18 13:31:58.721 ALERT DX11BACKEND (8864): Error: Can't find precompiled shader for effect animator/gpu_animated_model.fx:DIRECTX11=true;MAX_ANIMATIONS_STACK_SIZE=100;MAX_ARGUMENTS_SIZE=3;NUM_NODES=77;USE_DCS_DEFERRED=1;. this is still a shader issue. whether it is the cause, that is still to be told. when you renamed the saved games dcs folder, this should have recompiled everything. the latest log does indicate it. also see these type of messages Recompilation process will take some time, please wait (this situation should not occur on end user PC, if there is no manual shader editing) -
there have been reports that either or both nvidia and DCS settings get wiped or corrupted after updates. perhaps it is that?

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.

silverdevil replied to Derbroomaster's topic in Game Crash
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.
