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.

as @Rudel_chw mentioned, add the DCS folders to the exceptions in ESET. there are a few folders to add to exceptions detailed in this YT video. this will also make the game load faster.

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.

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.

hello. the answer you seek is in this post.

hello. currently, and hopefully fixed by next update, oculus patched / updated their end which broke interface with DCS. search for "DCS PTC v63 update"

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.

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.

there have been so many users over the years that have too little RAM. more users are getting defacto 64 GB. there have been mentions of an MP session will use about 50 GB. i am not sure why some missions / tracks work and some do not. the history of tracks in DCS is foggy at best. the track system was never meant to be for content creation. rather it was meant as a troubleshooting tool.

hello. it is definitely something weird. 00001.811 ERROR: Version 2.9.3.51704 is not available. also check to see if there is anything in the folder \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\ and delete. then do a long repair of DCS?

hello. i use the screen capture within geforce experience. the issue does not seem to be a thing for me.

yes a lot of commas in that number. i think you are correct that the number in the log is askew. see if you can share the reply. i can see what my machine does. i have 128 GB RAM and a 32 GB pagefile.

Glad to help.

hello again. looks like not enough memory. 2024-04-03 23:18:09.930 INFO APP (Main): CPU cores: 8, threads: 8, System RAM: 32688 MB, Pagefile: 4864 MB 2024-04-03 23:24:12.951 ALERT EDCORE (Main): Out of memory in ed_malloc for 176925783632 bytes. 2024-04-03 23:24:13.345 INFO EDCORE (Main): 0x00000000000277ab (edCore): ed::fatal_out_of_memory + 0x3B you should either get more memory or set a 32 GB pagefile. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/increase-page-file-size-virtual-memory-windows

hello. the last line of your log 2024-04-03 11:16:09.788 INFO APP (Main): application shutdown did you actually initiate the application shutdown of DCS? there is nothing outwardly odd in your dcs.log. i think this is your AV blocking? can you add exceptions to your AV software? also look here. good luck.

hello. this is likely a problem with DCS vs VR. DCS is being picky with Oculus now too. see if this will help.

it is not recommended to use external USB for DCS. however you can get through it possibly by using sim links. https://www.howtogeek.com/16226/complete-guide-to-symbolic-links-symlinks-on-windows-or-linux/

hello. are you trying a track that was created with the current revision of DCS? if you are trying a track from a previous revision, it is likely your issue. also if you want, post your DCS.LOG file for analysis.

well i learned something new today. i cannot even play the track unless i paid for the campaign. can you create a mission with the anomaly between the two waypoints with F-16? or coordinates?
