Flappie, may you be blessed by a thousand angels for your help and coming to my aid. No black screen, Skatezilla just says DCS closed and that's that. If I open DCS natively (stable) it opens. But not Open Beta nor open beta via Skatezilla updater. If I open DCS with VR off through the Skatezilla, it does the same. Just closes. Been racking my brain and going on all the forums - on Facebook I asked if anyone experienced same after updating last Friday. Many said the same thing that they did also have dcs crashing to desktop.
