sobe Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) After all of the recent updates, I am still getting a black screen of death on startup for the OpenBeta version. The stable version works fine. Giving up real soon. UPDATE:I reinstalled the OB and ran it with no issues if I did NOT add any terrain or plane modules. I guess I can just stick with the stable version or just fly the Su-25t in OB but no F18.

sobe Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 I loaded the A10-c module and everything was ok. I then loaded the F18 module and so far ok. I am afraid to load any additional terrain maps. I don't know why it is working this afternoon and not this morning. I love computers.

sobe Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 NineLine I spoke to soon After loading the A10-c and the F18 modules and booting up the game twice, I got the black screen again. dcs.zip is from my first failed boot attempt and then I ran a repair and tried again with no joy and 2dcs.zip is from this second attempt. NOTES: I cannot seem to find the folder overwingvapor in bazar/effects/particlesystem2/overwingvapor/. I searched for the models directory and could not find a bk_90.edm.json file or any of the other bk files that the log says is missing. As far as this error: 2018-09-03 20:44:43.316 ERROR Lua::Config: Lua error [string "./Config/MonitorSetup//2_monitors-FA18C.lua"]:54: attempt to call global that is the lua file I use when I fly the F18 with Helios, but according to my options file, I am using the 1 camera lua file. 2dcs.zipdcs.zipoptions.zip Trackir4 using the latest Trackir 5 software, Win10 Pro [Creator Update] updated from Win7Pro Pro 64Bit, Intel® Core™ i5-2500 3.30 GHz 6M Intel Smart Cache LGA115 , GigaByte GA-Z68XP-UD4 Intel Z68 Chipset DDR3 16GB Ram, GTX MSI Gaming 1060 [6 GB] Video Card, Main Monitor 1 on left 1920x1080 Touchscreen Monitor 2 on right 1920x1080 .

ED Team NineLine Posted September 4, 2018 ED Team Share Posted September 4, 2018 A number of those errors in the logs may have nothing to do with the probelms you are seeing, quite often you will see errors in the dcs.log file that dont affect the game at all. Is this only when trying to use NTTR or the Persian Gulf? Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobe Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 NineLine Is this only when trying to use NTTR or the Persian Gulf? No. For the time being, I am only using the Caucasus map Trackir4 using the latest Trackir 5 software, Win10 Pro [Creator Update] updated from Win7Pro Pro 64Bit, Intel® Core™ i5-2500 3.30 GHz 6M Intel Smart Cache LGA115 , GigaByte GA-Z68XP-UD4 Intel Z68 Chipset DDR3 16GB Ram, GTX MSI Gaming 1060 [6 GB] Video Card, Main Monitor 1 on left 1920x1080 Touchscreen Monitor 2 on right 1920x1080 .

ED Team Alex Okean Posted September 4, 2018 ED Team Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) It is definitely problem with your "2_monitors-FA18C.lua" file : dcs is execute this file to extract preset name ( this name then pushed into the selection listbox in options ) , problem is that this execution is not completely guarded - we will fix it. but now i recommend to remove this failed file or fix it manually ( update : fixed internally rev #141259 - monitor setup execution is now properly guarded ) Edited September 4, 2018 by Alex O'kean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
