Gripen 4-1

Really thought about replacing my HP G2 with a Pimax Crytal Light...... but after all the stories I have read about lenses, problems and customer service I definitely will not. I think Pimax is innovative, but they are far from optimal in means of customer service and quality management.

Try to disable SMT (multithreading) manually in your BIOS. Not turbo game mode. Turn this off completely For me if SMT is enabled with my 5900X I get stuttering in VR; if it is disabled it is smooth. Did you only change the CPU, or other components too? Try to reset your BIOS settings completely, and then change step by step

It is not a DCS fault! Maybe your GPU cable is defective! The sense wires made problems / lost contact. Fans turned 100%, screen went black and the only way was to push the power button on the PC Had this with a Cablemod cable. After I changed it, it never happended again. https://www.reddit.com/r/cablemod/comments/13qhuzu/black_screen_fans_revving_up_to_100_pc_remains/?rdt=44564 Do you use the standard Nvidia adapter cable or another brand? For some people this happened also with the standard adapter.

Had the same a few weeks ago. HP logo on the headset stayed dark and it was not recognized. Had bought an 3 years extended warranty at the shop and got a new cable. With the new cable it works flawless again. @nessuno0505 so there is a good chance your cable is also defective. But 80 € for a cable is massive if you have to buy it now, especially when you know that the headset is end of life.......

So sad to hear about @dburne's passing. My eyes are full of tears and my heart weighs heavy. Condolences and all the strength needed to his family in these dark hours. And to you Don: Blue skies and always a third wire. May you fly with the best up there! You will be missed here very much. cheers Don

Such a great mission! Really thrilling!!!!! Thanks @Badger633

No crash since I set a lager pagefile - knock on wood @FlappieThanks for your help

Hi @Badger633! Great campaign so far, thank you! Can I quit DCS after mission 9 part 1 and start part 2 the next day, or do I have to play all 2 parts in one session? Thanks!

Thanks @Badger633 Tried mission one again today. All fine. Will observe in the coming missions. All mods removed now. But a lot of free campaigns require civilian aircraft mod and military aircraft mod. Did you observe any issues with your campaign if the two mods are installed? Thanks for your help

Hi @Badger633 started the campaign yesterday. Fist time in M01 I did not turn right on the runway after the PR meeting. so my wingman did not start from RAS AL KHAIMAH. Today, next try, I took off from the carrier, but Dodge 1-2 did not start. Only one Dodge flight was with me to provide high cover. The other one was on the deck with the canopy open.

I will test this weekend. Have not had time yet to test.

opened a ticket; told me to decrease preload radius to 60000 and increase pagefile to 48GB or 64 GB. We will see, not 100% sure it solves the problem. There are some things in the log which point to pilot textures and they got an update with the last OB 2023-11-04 16:10:23.136 INFO APP (1416): try to write track file 2023-11-04 16:10:23.138 INFO APP (1416): 'C:\Users\Northface\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs\dcs.20231104-161022.crash' deleted successfully 2023-11-04 16:10:23.248 ERROR EDCORE (6200): More out of memory in ed_malloc for 22369808 bytes. 2023-11-04 16:10:23.248 ERROR EDCORE (6200): More out of memory in SharedBuffer for 22369776 bytes. 2023-11-04 16:10:23.248 ERROR EDCORE (6200): Not enough memory to decompress: pilot_f18_helmet_roughmet.dds 2023-11-04 16:10:23.248 WARNING SECURITYCONTROL (6200): IC fail: /textures/pilot_f18_helmet_roughmet @ coremods/aircraft/fa-18c/textures/fa-18c.zip 2023-11-04 16:10:23.248 ERROR BACKENDCOMMON (6200): Can't load image '/textures/pilot_f18_helmet_roughmet.dds'.

@Flappie no memory errors after 3 hours

Singleplayer only

@Flappie maybe you could be so kind and report the issue. In the meantime I test ram again, but after the first tests my ram seems stable and fine. Had two crashes of these in the past days, maybe I find the logs Thank you!

@Flappiedoes it make sense to set the pagefile to 64 GB? memtest looks good so far......

Hi @Flappie, any ideas why my OB MT crashed to desktop? Logs attached. Seems to be a memory leak!? Have a 32 GB pagefile and 32 GB RAM Thanks a lot! dcs.log-20231104-161022.zip

I have the same feeling that 1024 every frame is not every frame anymore. The mirrors are choppy / stuttering if I look @ it. This is normal for 1024, but should nit be normal for 1024 every frame - seems something is bugged there....

For me black ones; but noticed it first, when I used the TGP in the hornet. No flashes if I am not using the TGP

No Win11, no encryption here. Win10 with plenty of free space on both M2 PCIe 4 SSD's.

@BIGNEWY no, sorry HAGS made it even worse - constantly stuttering set the default VR profile, which is very light for my hardware - also stuttering / 1 core is close to maxed out or maxed out. Have two pcie 4.0 M2 ssd's one for OS and a 2 TB exclusively for DCS 1.22TB free. Something in MT seems to be bugged

Hotplug disabled, no scripts runnig, no tacview, started without dcs export for my UFC and without SSA for my haptic pad, but still no joy will give hags a try

@BIGNEWY 2.9 MT is causing stutter for me too, although I am not on an Intel system. No core parking activated for my Ryzen 5900X. The stutters are random and not following a pattern. One time I start the caucasus mission it is butter smooth, next time I get stuttering. Deactivating core parking seems to help a lot of users, but I think it is not the only MT problem. Don't think it is an Intel problem, stuttering is also present for AMD Cpu's. Fun Fact it happens also in not CPU heavy scenarios. Seems more like a thread / scheduler sync problem. I know it is difficult to find the cause, but please make this priority. It is no fun in VR with this kind of stuttering. In the past in ST, with the right settings to hold the VR headsets FPS it felt somehow smoother. These stutter occur out of nowhere. Although I have the feeling that MT is very, very hard on one CPU core, which is almost maxed out in taskmanager.

Be careful: In 2.9.0 antialiasing is OFF by default; just in case you tested with AA on in the previous versions

No gun problem for me in the F-18
