Still crashing on exiting to desktop

[imacken]

About 4 out of every 5 times, I get 'DCS has stopped working' Windows message when exiting DCS.

[BIGNEWY]

please add your log when it happens

 

most likely related to the memory issue at the moment, but without a log it will be difficult to tell.

Also take a look at windows event viewer for clues

I am experiencing this as well, however, I am not seeing any logs created in the users/saved games area.

DCS always creates a dcs.log

 

But if it is crashing and not producing a .crash you can take a look at windows event viewer for clues

 

Personally I am not seeing a crash on exit, I know VR users were experiencing it

This should be the one from my last crash. Windows event viewer says: Log Name: Application

I too have been having this same issue, although for me it's been occurring for several months in both 2.2 and 1.58.

 

When 2.5 Open Beta was released I performed a full reinstall but the crashes still occur about 4 out of 5 times when i exit the game. I play in both VR and normal and both modes crash at same frequency when I exit to desktop. Most recent crash logs attached along with the associated Application error log from Windows. I have a second gaming rig that I sometimes play on which does not crash on exit at all. This is far from a gamebreaker issue, but it is annoying that my favorite game does not exit cleanly.

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the info guys.

 

Can you tell me what OS and if it is upto date.

 

We did have a crash on exit on our internal build which seems fixed now, maybe related, maybe not. Hopefully it will help you guys once patched.

[MurderOne]

Win10, 64 bit, always been auto-updated.

Just to say, I haven’t had a crash on exit since the hot fix updates.

good to hear, thanks for letting us know :thumbup:

[imacken]

Sorry BIGNEWY, I spoke too soon. Happening again today 2 or 3 times.

Understood, did you make any changes or notice a reason for it?

 

You can attach your fresh log when it happens for the team to look at.

[imacken]

Here you go. Happening every time now. No, I haven't changed anything.

[Madmatt_BFC]

I have not gotten a crash on exit since the hotfix. So for me at least, it seems to be resolved and I have launched and exited the game about 20 times already.

About 4 out of every 5 times, I get 'DCS has stopped working' Windows message when exiting DCS.

 

I've been getting that for 6 months with the stock game, the alpha, and then the beta(when I started using that a month ago..) every frick'in time I exit... CRASH!!

 

I just counted the .crash files that I have in my log folder. There are over 100 .crash files dated in 2018!

 

I've done the cleanup, repair, rebuild metashaders, fxo, options.lua files. But then it's been crashing for 6 months so I doubt that's the problem. Event viewer and dcs.log always indicate either DX11backend.dll or ntdll.dll. I have run without mods for a period of time and still got the crashes.

 

Now, with the crash on exit, I am also getting game lockups and in-game crashes since 2.5 which is very annoying.

Looks like I too spoke too soon. I started playing in VR again and now I am getting the crashes on exit again as I did before. Log file attached.
