A lot of crashing is making DCS unplayable.

[thryckz]

So I installed 2.5 Open Beta and 2.5 a few days ago and I noticed it's crashing for me. Like an absurd amount. I figured I post here to try and get this remedied before the FA-18C pops up in my module list in two days. Firstly, the AV-8B NA is hit and miss. Sometimes I can load the module, sometimes I can't. I don't know if thsi is anyway related to my issue but I removed the module just in case. Secondly, I can't join ANY multiplayer server without it crashing. I see the lobby and it freezes and it either makes my screen flicker to which I have to restart my computer or it hangs my computer (to which i have to restart anyway). It's very uncommon to where I can save from restarting. Thirdly, I posted on Reddit a few days ago because I couldn't play on the new PG map. I found out that this was caused by either the DoF Bokeh option or motion blur.

 

 

My game is maxed out. I know I'm lacking RAM but I don't have any frame issues and RAM usage is low.

 

 

Specs:

 

 

• GTX 1080 (Not overclocked)
  
• i5 4690k (Not overclocked)
  
• 8GB DDR3 Ram
  

DCS is installed to an SSD.

I ran repairs for both Open Beta and Vanilla and re-installed Open Beta.

take a look here and make sure you have the Visual Studio 2013 and Visual Studio 2017

Thanks for the post!

I already have visual studio 2017 installed which should install the 2013, 2015 & 2017 run times. Which I think is what you meant?

 

 

Do you want me to install the actual IDE?

 

 

I ran the vcredist included in DCS and it said I already have them installed.

no that is fine, if it says you have them you should be ok.

 

can you share a screenshot of your ingame settings or attach your options.lua

[thryckz]

Sure thing!

 

Here is the picture of the settings

Here is the options.lua

 

I tried lowering the settings to medium and it doesn't change anything (It still crashes as usual)
