Good day. My game is not starting after update 2.

Every time the DCS updater runs and freeze on "Initializing" THX for help

 

Edit1: I tried to use repair but that did not help. Now i am trying to do clean install.

Stupid question: did you try a repair?

Same here, after the update my game doesn't start either. Also get a very brief DCS Updater initializing popup.

Repairs don't help, even went back to the previous version of OpenBeta, 46722. Did not help.

Same problem here. Repairing doesn't help.

 

Please note that DCS is running in the background but is not listed in the Applications tab of Task manager. Clicking on the shortcut again gives me a "only one instance can run" error so it's indeed running.

 

Here is the Processes tab of my Task Manager, notice DCS as well as some related FW 190 things, not sure if related to the problem?

My updater seems to be downloading the new update so slowly it might as well be going backwards :( Let alone try and actually open DCS I'd seriously love to know what is going on? I had no issues whatsoever with the old updater and installing the old updates

Same here, however I have L-39C protect instead. I tried deleting the L39 and it changed to Mig-15

It seems to me that this is simply an issue with a overloaded server

Maybe the starforce servers are also overloaded? It looks like it is checking your activation.

But that's just a guess, it would be obvious if it would work tomorrow (or later)

I am not sure what is going on, but I helped someone earlier with a similar issue.

 

The protect.exe was hanging for his p-51 and a repair did not help.

 

I told him to go to C:\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\P-51D and delete the whole folder, then run a repair, and it worked for him.

 

It may work for your particular module.

 

Please attach any logs you may have and your autoupdate_log.txt

 

also please let us know which antivirus you are using in your posts.

 

Thanks

Avast Premier

 

thanks, there is a pattern forming here.

 

I suspect Avast was interfering with the protect.exe
