F-5E not working anymore after today's 2.0.5 update

[strikers_blade]

Looks like nobody reported the problem so far.

Since DCS updated the 2.0.5 version this morning, all airplanes and helicopters work except for the F-5, regardless of the role on the roster.

 

I tried on Multiplayer, campaign and quick mission. As soon as I click "fly" in MP and campaign, it freezes the game. on quick mission, it loads but as soon as my cockpit appears, everything freezes.

 

Anyone else have that issue?

 

p.s. I also "repaired the DCS 2.0 openalpha"

It works for me but I experience this issue:

Same problem here. Since the update today, my screen freezes as soon as I press "Fly" at mission start. I can see the cockpit but nothing moves on. Screen just freezes in the cockpit-view.

Has everybody installed the VC14?

 

Tried doing a repair?

 

Maybe reinstalling the module helps...

[Ccryan]

I re-installed and same deal with F-5E. A-10 did it the first time but works now, havent tried anything else yet.

Did you install VC14?

[Maulkin]

I did install VC that was linked in the patch notes

[norbot]

VC14 is installed. Without it DCS doesn't even start. Every other of my modules works, just F-5E has the mentioned problem.

 

The problem occurs with others too: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3069205#post3069205

The funny thing is on my computer DCS starts whether or not I installed VC14??? First I installed it, then I uninstalled it, makes no difference, DCS 2.0 starts up (but misbehaves in either case, see various other posts)

[theropod]

same here!

 

i ran repair twice but nothing fixed.

[archer86]

I noticed same CTD problem while installing and sometimes pressing fly after install mission.

[aceviper]

Same here..F5 completely freezes DCS 2.0 and requires ending process.

At first I thought this was happening to me as well, but the aircraft loaded eventually and I was able to operate it without any issues. Initially, it was a very long wait however. After that first time though, the module loaded normally.

I'm having the same issue. F-5 works fine in 1.5 but crashes in 2.0 when I press fly. The last attempt I made at flying it 2.0 crashed during the load screen. I've ran a clean up and repair.

trippylummox seems to have described my problem accurately if not completely. I can get to the debrief screen, but the "Fly" button won't highlight. After clicking the "Fly" button, it highlights and the cursor disappears, then nothing. I haven't tried to wait it out--I might try that now. But here's the log file.

 

P.S. I don't know if you'll find anything useful in the log file. I tried and failed to fly the F-5E today but my computer says they were last modified yesterday.

 

Good luck and thank you.

 

Update: I have been trying to wait out the program for the last hour with no change. DCS appears to have stagnated at 15% CPU usage and 2.5 GB RAM. I have an AMD FX 9590 and 32 GB of RAM installed.

 

Update 2: DCS RAM usage has dropped to about 0.5 GB within 20 min. of me writing the last update.

 

Update 3: I just realized what date it is today. The logs were updated today. I thought it was the eighth when I wrote that the logs were last modified yesterday. :music_whistling:

 

Update 4: Still no improvement. I'm going to let it run overnight and check in again after I get home from work in the morning.

Update: I was able to get it working on my laptop by download and installing both VC14 versions x64 and x86. Not sure if I was supposed to install both but I did and it now works. I will try the same thing on the desktop as soon as I get the chance.

[Saltat_cum_mortem]

Final update DCS ran for about twelve hours and forty-eight minutes without improvement. updated log files are included.

How did you manage this? When I try and install the x86 file it won't let me as it already detects the x64 file installed

Just wanted to throw this in, I got on NTTR multiplayer last night and flew the F5 without problem. I'm running windows 10 64 bit.

I just happened to download and install x86 first. Then the X64 got downloaded and installed afterward. I guess I got lucky to do it in that order.
