Morghor Posted April 8, 2017 Posted April 8, 2017 I downloaded DCS open beta for the first time yesterday . When I played it , the ground and sky was black . After some short manouvers , the game would crash every time . I have a computer that reaches the minimum requirements . I did not have any mod but I installed reshade which made half the map proper and the other half black but my game crashed shortly after . Please help :cry: I have wanted to play this game for years :cry:

Morghor Posted April 8, 2017 Author Posted April 8, 2017 I installed the 1.5 beta . Should I have downloaded the release version?
Coxy_99 Posted April 8, 2017 Posted April 8, 2017 Your laptop is not good enough you need something more powerful.
Morghor Posted April 8, 2017 Author Posted April 8, 2017 Your laptop is not good enough you need something more powerful. But it meets the minimum requirements , right? Is there anything I can do?
Winston 60 Posted April 8, 2017 Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Your Radeon R5 M430 laptop video card scores 624 on passmark tests. This low cost video solution was not designed to play complex games. In comparison, a Geforce GTX 880M laptop video card scores 3,569 on the same test. Perhaps this could this be the reason?

WinterH Posted April 8, 2017 Posted April 8, 2017 I don't know about that graphics card but since rest of the laptops specs are fine, I would guess the culprit is indeed the graphics card. Normally this black skies issue happen with cards that do not support dx11.

Tominez Posted April 16, 2017 Posted April 16, 2017 Guys, I have the same problem. I was playing DCS 1.5 and 2.0 wiThout any problem till yesterday. Then I had to disconnect my stuff to make some works in the room and once i reconnected everything and strarted up the game, the sky and terrain where completely balck. I did not tuch any setting. I cannot explain this. Could the HDMI cable connecting the CPU to the video be the problem ? I really have no ideas
