  1. sorry if i missed this detail. have you added exclusions to malwarebytes for the various DCS and DCS connected folders?
  2. did you provide them with your service tag? if so you should be good. they can look up the inventory of what they sent you and provide a compatible DIMM. and if it is wrong they will take it back.
  3. DCS will only update when you run the shortcut. So no updates per se while flying. However DCS may, for example, compile a shader that you do not already have compiled. Depending on system and how many shaders, it may take a moment. Those exceptions stop the security software from scanning those folders. The idea is the security software will check the file, go online to check a database of known badness, and then continue. It could be other things but this explains why the exceptions make it faster and no stuttering.
  4. unless the remotely outside chance that you have a rouge version of DCS, yes it is safe. there are literally thousands of DCS users that do not have problems. the update is supposed to drop today (FEB 22, 2024) after a slight delay. so i think your plan is sound. unless the remotely outside chance that you have a rouge version of DCS, yes it is safe. there are literally thousands of DCS users that do not have problems. the update is supposed to drop today (FEB 22, 2024) after a slight delay. so i think your plan is sound.
  5. "yellow line in the performance monitor" do you mean in DCS? or windows perfmon? DCS it means GPU present frame time. (i think)
  6. i see you have malwarebytes. sometimes malwarebytes can be a little firm. it is in its nature to be firm. better safe than sorry. i suspect is is trying to create a cookie like for language. malwarebytes may be affecting DCS too. some people report false positive results from the security software.
  7. when you are about to do the update, rename each saved games folder to .BAK. run the update and let it do what the updater wants to do. you really do not have much choice i suppose. you can always repair the DCS installation. when it is done, run DCS. a new Saved Games folder will be created. then copy all the old Saved Games folders you want over to new folder. before you start take note of the Saved Games folder that has the newest date on it. also open and examine the file dcs_variant.txt found in the install folder (where mine is) \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta. do a properties on your shortcut you use to start DCS. this will tell you exactly.
  8. yikes a lot to digest here. i think it is best to go slow. i looked at your log and see you have no AA. change to DLAA. beware of ghosting. also post screenshots of your Nvidia settings. here are mine
  9. hello. post the suspect mission. others can try it to see and share their results. MT will eventually be the only version. so i suggest using it and posting problems you encounter. thanks @rob10 for typo! post your current specs. we can see if anything is amiss as far as below system requirements for DCS. see answer for 2. generally, in my experience, it is best to get two exact matches of DIMMS / SODIMMS. so two compatible dell or crucial that are the same. RAM does do good. the more the better. i have an alienware from early 2021. i bit the bullet and got 128 GB. i do not have memory related issues. of course i could have went with overkill. but i had the money. i also have 32 GB pagefile. for the rant see answer 2. and also add exceptions to your AV software. there is lots of other tidbits but lets go slow. see this post always come back for help. i surely will if i can. if you keep at it you will love DCS again. good luck.
  10. i personally made the exceptions because it was mentioned in other posts. my loading times went from 2 minutes plus to under 30 seconds. i have since suggested adding exceptions to any AV. however before watching this video, i had only the DCS install folder as an exception. i have since added the TrackIR install folder, the APPDATA TrackIR folder, DCS Saved Games folder. thanks to you and Spudknocker. @Flapjacks it is worth a try.
  11. roger. next time it happens upload the DCS.LOG from that session. maybe some clues. another thing i noticed. for some reason the date / time code on some folders / files in the CONFIG folder get changed. even when i did not change anything myself. for kicks, check to see if your system does this when the issue happens.
  12. @Lasko the track replicated the issue for me. agreed it is a reported bug. the strobing was horrible.
  13. hello. this is going to sound dumb and likely not the issue. but are you in GAME mode or SIM mode? another idea. since you have winwing, is there any winwing software running? could be that too. weird issue either way.
  14. @Flapjacks in NCP the only things i see different between us These are in NCP Antialiasing Mode should be Application Controlled. this lets DCS handle it. Max Frame Rate OFF. in DCS settings use ON and set at 120. Texture filtering - Quality is set to QUALITY. try HIGH PERFORMANCE. let us know how it goes.
  15. as i suspected. the effect is caused by TAA or FSR or a combination of both. visual artefacts but better performance. try DLAA instead. FSR with TAA will cause ghosting. have a look at this post.
  16. hello. unfortunately i cannot see what you are talking about. can you post your DCS.LOG? the video settings will be listed. sounds like AA issues.
  17. yes. suggest as @ddc196 did to remove mods and then run a repair or in steam file verify. if you still need assistance, post your latest dcs.log found in \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs
  18. yes. as i noted there is likely a hard stop on the development of the TGP. it would be inefficient to continue fixing something that is incorrect in the first place. though i am not one of the devs, it just makes sense to me and only my opinion.
  19. open nvidia control panel. and help. and debug. null
  20. hi. you can use snipping tool in windows. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-snipping-tool-to-capture-screenshots-00246869-1843-655f-f220-97299b865f6b
  21. have you tried the linked file? honestly DLAA is supposed to raise FPS. do your settings in NCP jive with your game? null null
  22. hello. i see you are using MSAA. try DLAA. you may see ghosting easy to try and revert if necessary.
  23. @RPY Variable all vids and such are old for the TGP now so it is difficult to get how it all works. at some point it was brought to someone's attention that the TGP was not correctly modelled for the F-16. my guess is the nose-to-the-grindstone development was slowed. this post has some info.. but frederf explains it pretty well from a couple years ago. we are a year into the redoing the pod announcement so we have to work with what we have for i am guessing a while.
  24. hello. while reading the beginning of your post, the credentials being mismatched was my guess. ensure the credentials you used to purchase are the same as the game profile? they have to match and be correct. it is possible that you do not have the same account in the forums.
