DCS AV8B Harrier - Multiplayer Standalone Crashes

[2RGT Oberst]

DCS Version: 2.2

 

We are experiencing multiplayer crashes when hosting a mission with the harrier on a stand-alone server setup.

 

I am attaching a copy of the server log. Multiplayer clients begin joining at 00134.8 and then these error messages appear:

 

00149.841 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND: texture 'AV8_T1_RoughMet' not found. Asked from 'GRAPHICSVISTA'

00149.847 ERROR_ONCE DX11BACKEND: texture 'AV8_T2_RoughMet' not found. Asked from 'GRAPHICSVISTA'

 

And these start repeating:

 

00150.059 ERROR GRAPHICSVISTA: Can't open model AV-8BNA-OBLOMOK-WING-R.

00150.061 ERROR GRAPHICSVISTA: Can't open model AV-8BNA-OBLOMOK-WING-L.

00150.062 ERROR GRAPHICSVISTA: Can't open model AV-8BNA-OBLOMOK-TAIL.

What graphics card does the server use? It has to be fully DX11 compliant.

Bump!

What about the heavy stuttering and freeze online? Could it be related to this log errors?

the problem is the DS, by deactivating it, there are no more problems

What is "deactivating the DS" makes zero sense to me

[Karon]

He has mentioned a "stand-alone server". I guess he's referring to the Dedicated Server.

So his suggestion is to turn off his server.... lol

DS: Deferred shading

What I thought he meant was that as DS it was crashing, as playing server, it was not.

 

DS: Deferred shading

Right.. Usually you'd want to zero every graphical setting on a DS.

 

Any way, I host both servers with no issues whatsoever. Make sure OP's done some elementary throubleshooting (drivers, installation repair, delete/rename user folder, run as admin, etc). Also, close GPU tweaking stuff some of them are known to mess up sometimes (in my case, I had issues with old versions of Gygabite xtreme gaming engine). Just to make sure it's not sothing other than DCS

 

Stuttering / freezing, normally are due to textures and data loading when a unit spawns (such as a player with a different aircraft joins the server). It gets far worse if you run DCS on a HDD. I have never experienced any similar issue in any other case. Actually, none of the people I fly with has this issue except for one which has a very low end PC and runs DCS from a HDD (everyone else run it on a SSD).

nothing of this.

 

Configure server:

 

 

DCS is installed on EVO4.

 

GPU: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti

CPU: Intel® Core i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz

Memory: 32 GB RAM (31.93 GB RAM disponibili)

Risoluzione corrente: 2560 x 1440, 59Hz

Microsoft Windows 10 Home

 

 

The problem is on different shading. If it is disabled, the problem is solved.

waiting for the next version 2.5 .....

Does "nothing of this" mean you've do the checks aforementioned?

 

If the issue is the deferred shading then open a thread and attach your log in the Open Alpha section of the forum. Devs might be interested into looking into it.
