Katmandu Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 I've just downloaded the 1.5 ver from https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/dcs_158/ The installation went smoothly, but DCS would not start, I attach logs below. I've tried cleanup and repair, and they run fine, but the end result is still the same. Any tips? PS Latest 2.5 works perfect.dcs.log-20181223-195850.zip
MadDog-IC Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) I've just downloaded the 1.5 ver from https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/dcs_158/ The installation went smoothly, but DCS would not start, I attach logs below. Probably haven't got the correct Microsoft VC++ distro version loaded for it, 2013, 2015 for 1.5 and 2017 for 2.5 I think. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/556/#1490800 Could also be sound card related as the log ends at about were it tries to init the sound modules.

Katmandu Posted December 23, 2018 Author Posted December 23, 2018 Redownloaded all the VC++ stuff, repaired it - still no go. Audio drivers are the latest for my mobo. Weird thing is, the same system runs DCS 1.5 in a different win10 install on a separate SSD (I've migrated from it, but still not deleted it)... Oh well, 2.5 runs ok at least :)
Katmandu Posted April 18, 2020 Author Posted April 18, 2020 Reviving an old thread because I never got to fix this issue... until today :) Old legacy DCS World is working great again due to this mod, it solves the issue with DCS World crashing (not starting) on Windows 10 ver 1809 and higher. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ru/files/3304411/ Replace the physfs.dll file with the above in DCS World/bin folder. Many thanks, VG54!
