DCS.exe crashes due to (0xc0000005) error

[CypherGrunyev]

I know theres other threads about this, but I didn't get solutions by doing any of the steps in them.

 

Could someone please walk me through the repair of this? Its an extremely infuriating issue, especially because I only get a few chances a week to actually play DCS Now.

To avoid a repetitive attempt at "Process of elimination" U should tell us what U have done so far.

 

First thing I would suggest is the "Repair" that is in the Start/All Programs/DCS blah blah blah .....section.

 

Then I would suggest the C++ Redistributed files here. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2019667

Symptom of crash is often the same (access violation) but cause may vary.

 

Usually (in case of DCS) happens when correct VC++ runtime is missing or wrong version, DirectX is not updated properly or drivers are not updated properly. Also check updates for Windows and so on.

-Certain Anti-Virus Suites Cause this..

-Missing 64-Bit Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes

[CypherGrunyev]

So to start, I repaired DCS World through the "Repair DCS" Exe.

 

Then I tried to launch DCS, and no dice.

 

I installed the latest C++ files, and still, no dice.

 

Should I try un-installing all forms of C++, and then re-installing only the 2013 version/or using repair?

[SkateZilla]

Attach Application Error Info here,

 

Along with DCS.LOG and ME.LOG */Saved Games/DCS/Logs

 

Along with DXDIAG Save All Info as TXT.

[CypherGrunyev]

Here Chief.

dcs log.txt

me log.txt

[AtaliaA1]

Here Chief.

 

 

The first thing that stands out is this line.

 

 

"C:\Users\Dylan\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS\tempMission.miz"

 

Also this one. attributed to the newer Editor.

 

Lua::Config: load error .\Bazar\Effects\Damage/Fire\High\fire.cfg:can't open '.\Bazar\Effects\Damage/Fire\High\fire.cfg'.

 

Have U opened this in the new editor so that it could save it to its new format?

 

 

U don't have heat issues with this PC do u? Nice Rig!

No the program needs all ver. of the updated C++ files.

What do you mean by the "new" editor?

 

Am I missing something here?

 

 

Also my PC is in my basement, its a constant temperature of 57 F down here, so the computer rarely overheats.

[Flagrum]

regarding the error

Lua::Config: load error .\Bazar\Effects\Damage/Fire\High\fire.cfg:can't open '.\Bazar\Effects\Damage/Fire\High\fire.cfg'.

I think, this is "normal". I saw this line in every log file I have seen so far.

[SkateZilla]

I think the Windows Application Crash Info would be more useful than the .logs at this point.

 

ie,

if specific Module's DLLs are causing the Cx---05 Error we can limit to specific Visual C++ Versions or files.

[CypherGrunyev]

Where can I find the Windows App Crash info then?

[SkateZilla]

Start Orb, Search "Event Viewer"

Windows Logs, System Logs or Application Logs.

Got this one last night while testing a mission. I joined the mission as an observer because I was testing to see if ground units would dynamically choose some paths and make it to their objective (Bushmanni's route.lua) and walked off to have dinner and watch a movie as I knew they'd take several hours to make the trip. Came back to find it had crashed after about 45 mins. Repeating the exercise bought the same results.

<edit>

Realised that last night I'd used time accel 2 so tried again this morning fresh after a cold boot. This time ran for 1:33 before crashing. Different error this time, so don't have a clue. DMP file was 3.6 Gb so not much use. Did notice the word Unknown below in the byte data. Seemed to happen right after the last unit in a group was destroyed. Group was two ZSU23 trucks, one Ural 375 and a Sk11 command. The group was due to respawn automatically using RAF's automanv3.4 script. Probably not assisting the OP really so I will stop at this.

Trying to use DCS Update gave me this

 

Successfully created restore point (Process = C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\distr\vcredist_x64.exe Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\distr\vcredist_x64.exe" /quiet /norestart; Description = Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (x64) - 11.0.61030).

 

And thats really the only useful thing I've seen, but I dont know what to look for.

the VRC_redistributable setup is needed if your Visual C+ Libraries aren't up to date.

 

Most of the time, if they aren't DCS Will run, but crash when one of the commands for the new Visual C++ comes through it will crash DCS.
