I disabled G sync, and ssaa aswell as disabling hot plugs and changing my settings in nvidia control panel to the settings in the post. I have re enabled G sync and ssaa with no issues, so my guess is it was either a bad nvidia control panel setting messing with something, or the hot plugs issue, or both. Either way the issue is fixed! Thanks!

it might have been I'll have to check its an LG 27GL63T and I have GSYNC enabled also it might be unrelated but I had a crash while attempting to load an empty mission with the F14A dcs.log this is the log from that also is there any way to tell what device unplugged?

Unfortunately that hasn't fixed the problem. heres another ddcs.logcs.log where it was flickering really bad. EDIT: I added a track of a mission where I experienced flickering, although I don't believe it'll help as after that mission my loading screens started to flicker aswell. flicker track.trk

I also watched my VRAM and I believe it might be a video memory leak causing the issue. For reference my card has 8GB VRAM. When I first start the game my VRAM usage sits around ~1.3GB's, and when I load into a mission with the F14, the full 8GB is used. When I exit the mission into the main menu however, the VRAM usage sits around ~4.5GB. dcs.log also heres my dcs.log

I monitored my pc while flying the F14 and F16, and the system load looks identical. CPU usage maxes at like 25% (its only really using 3 cores out of the 8), GPU usage is pretty much at a constant 100% and memory maxes at 50% usage. I also figured out the issue causing a code 31 with the microsoft display driver, which hasn't fixed this issue.

Hello, I have seen the other post about screen flickering however I believe I'm experiencing a different bug altogether. When I play any DCS F14B mission, my screen will start to flicker, and it slowly gets worse the more I play. Its a fast flicker that begins at the edges of my screen, which gets progressively worse making the entire screen flicker. It only happens with the F14B, (I own the F16, F18, and AV8B aswell and have not experienced this with those aircraft). However after I play a mission with the F14, the loading screens will start to flicker aswell (which they don't when I initially start the game). I've tried deleting the DCS.openbeta folder in my C:\Users\USER\Saved Games folder and I've completely uninstalled and re installed the entire game (and modules) to no avail. The flickering also doesn't show up on screen recordings, and I have an error code 31 with my microsoft basic display adapter, which I am also trying to figure out with their support, but I believe it to be unrelated. my pc specs are: RTX 3070 Ryzen 7 7700x 32 GB DDR5 RAM and my c drive is a WD black NVMe (which is what the game is installed on). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If anyone is still experiencing this issue, you are using an old mission file with the old style of clouds. Easiest way to fix this is by changing to a new cloud preset in the missions' weather settings.

Ya maybe we've been asking too much of Jester, I hope he's ok...

Hi, I just want to start off by saying my experience so far with the F-14B has been awesome and I haven't had any problems up to now. I haven't played DCS for a while so I decided to hop on today. When I started the game, it had an update so I let it do that. I got into a mission and aesthetically Jester was missing from the contextual menu. But the rest of the menu worked (so I thought) so I went along. When I was getting ready to land at an air base, however, this is when I encountered problems. I told Jester to tune to the air bases ATC, which was 130.000 MHz, he turned the radio to manual as per usual and started to tune. However he stopped at 126.000 MHz. When I re-instructed him thinking this was just a random glitch he tuned it one up at 127.000 MHz and stopped. I then proceeded to try manual input in the Jester menu and same thing, he went one up and stopped at 128.000 MHz. When I exited the simulator I tried the repair command in CMD for DCS_updater.exe. When the test finished saying "Successfully repaired version 2.5.5.31917@openbeta" I tried my game again. Still no Jester. I don't have any mods installed and I do not modify game files other then liveries and knee boards. I have attached a screenshot of what the jester menu looks like. Some help on this issue would be greatly appreciated Regards, CRAZYZOMBITZ
