DCS Crashing Regularly

[Targanon]

I have not found a common theme in the crashing..

 

but I will include the crash reports that are being gen ..

 

That's the last three files

 

the last crash was in the training mission for the su25t the first lesson.

 

I had run lesson once and configured my controls with a basic setup.. I was going to run it again and setup a more detailed profile for the plane.

 

 

but never got there.

I've been getting crashes lately, which is unusual for me. I had just put mine down to the fact I've been flying the Mirage which is known to have some CTD bugs, but that could just be an accident of timing.

I don't if this is connected but I just made a small mission to do some testing .... nothing happened as far as CTD but I did loose the ability to bring up the comms menu press \ default key nothing... I did have a c-130 out that I had setup to refuel from

 

but could not comms menu..

 

it was working prior with the atc but after take off at some point it stopped working before I could call tanker

I have just been reading one of the other posts about crashing..

 

I have followed the instructions on a reply there..

 

I would suggest you:

1.Remove any 3rd party Mods, can use command line "DCS_Updater.exe cleanup" to scan and check or force removal.

2.Run the classic "DCS_Updater.exe repair" to check for other corruption.

 

 

I will report back once I have had a chance to test it out ...

 

I didn't have any mods in. I did have the LSO mod in at one time but removed it ...

 

seems that was not removed completely as the clean found it.,.

 

The repair found nothing to repair.

I have also been reading other posts and found this reply to a post.

 

Bingo41, your log shows the "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED" error. This means the problem comes from either your graphics card or its driver.

 

You should first try resetting your nVidia control panel:

 

 

 

If it doesn't change anything, try updating your nvidia drivers, then restart your computer.

 

If the game still crashes, we'll need to look at your graphics card frequencies, through GPU-Z, or MSI Afterburner.

 

 

 

I'll also try this as I noticed that I also have DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED

 

in my logs ....

OK update my last Just had 2 sessions on 2 diff servers no problems.

 

lets hope that making those changes fixed my issues..

 

 

however that was only 2.5 hours of playtime.

DCS keeps crashing

 

Count me in on those crashes. I spent this weekends spare time almost with trying to fix those annoying crahes (CTD and sometimes complete hard resets of my PC)

 

I tried several NVIDIA graphics drivers starting with the most new

 

• 399.07
  
• 392.93
  
• 388.71
  

with no luck. Cleaning the driver off the system with DDU each time I tried another one.

 

Both DCS versions (Beta / 2.5.3.21235 and actual GA / 2.5.2.20785) crash on a regular basis beeing sometimes only some seconds in the F/A-18 Take-Off training session (mostly when starting taxiing to the runway) or after some minutes having taken-off and performing touch and goes.

 

I already have checked the DCS versions for installtion errors and also did a cleanup repair.

 

Attached I have some recent log files.

 

Plus I add a screenshot showing the graphics perfomance. What makes me wonder are those >9 GB of Video mem that the info shows.

 

As the GA version log files are much to big to get uploaded I provide a link to my onedrive folder: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AvwPeGZAosB0mj89606i_Yq0sTah
