Only loads to 55% then stops

[sfzdrums]

So just today I started experiencing 2.5 not loading the menu screen. It connects to the server, authenticates data, then the blue sky with the load bar. It rapidly gets to 55% then just stops. Does not appear to be frozen, no "DCS Not Responding" messages. It just stops loading. After the latest update I began having problems with some F-18 training/instant action missions locking the sim up with the "not responding" message. I wonder if that has cascaded into this current issue?:huh: I have attached the most recent log I could find. It's not a crash log, however, as nothing has officially "crashed". I just didn't know where else to post this. Thank you for your help!

Hi

 

Have you made any edits to the game files?

 

Try renaming your saved games location first and run a cleanup and repair

 

example C:\Users\Josh\Saved Games\DCS.openbetabackup

 

remove any unofficial modification ( if any )

No I have not made any edits to the game files of any kind. I'm afraid to do those things because of things like this! I will follow your instructions and let you know what happens.

Ok so that worked, thank you very much! Not sure what happened in the first place...do files just get corrupted over time or with updates?

[BIGNEWY]

Good to see you are up and running again.

 

Maybe a corrupted file, antivirus can sometimes create problems.

[sfzdrums]

Yes. You jogged my memory...when I was installing the update and the F-18, it kept hanging up because of McAfee. Live and learn...need to remember to deactivate antivirus during installs :doh:
