Big Nuts Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 Keep getting kicked for not being a pure client. It cites vfs textures being a problem. No mods, except some lua to export a display to a phone. I've repaired and still no joy. It can be intermittent, i have had a flight without a prob, but the most recent example; Was taxiing out looked to my left and saw a big brown what looked like a bomb crater draped over an airfield embankment, didn't look right, and right then i got kicked for being impure. I just want to be pure. So i can get to heaven. Thx.
Big Nuts Posted May 25, 2019 Author Posted May 25, 2019 Nothing? Repaired and tried again, get to the runway and kicked out for non pure models. Nothing i can do, f* frustrating.
Ramsay Posted May 25, 2019 Posted May 25, 2019 Check your "Saved Games\DCS" folder as some mods will cause IC issues. IIRC, tacview and the 476th Range Objects are ok, but VPC Airfield Equipment and perhaps US Navy Equipment are not ("Saved Games\DCS\mods\tech"). I'm not sure how the A-4E Skyhawk fairs ("Saved Games\DCS\mods\aircraft"). Skins ("Saved Games\DCS\Liveries") *should* be ok but YMMV. i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440
Big Nuts Posted May 25, 2019 Author Posted May 25, 2019 Thanks for the reply, i dont have any mods though. It cites dcs's own files as being 'wrong'. Ill just wait for an update see if that fixes it.

You can run "DCS_updater.exe cleanup" from the "DCS Worldin" folder to remove any non-standard or corrupt files. Note: from Windows 10 power shell the command is ".DCS_updater.exe cleanup" Details: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 Though you may prefer to install/use SkateZilla's Updater GUI if not comfortable with Windows command line. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=160053 Edited May 25, 2019 by Ramsay Fix typo i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440
Big Nuts Posted June 3, 2019 Author Posted June 3, 2019 Thanks for your help, no joy though. Most of the time the integ check fails while in a server, i can join them it seems, but i get booted after a minute or so.
Big Nuts Posted June 3, 2019 Author Posted June 3, 2019 Just about every texture comes up as tainted, im not going to re-download the whole lot. Fm virtual dcs life.
HiJack Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Just about every texture comes up as tainted, im not going to re-download the whole lot. Fm virtual dcs life. Follow Ramsays advice and you should be good.
Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 I tried it but it didn't work. I think Dcs is upset because i was getting frustrated with her. Im sorry babe i love you really :flowers:
Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 K ive replaced 500mb of 'impure' data and it just spits out errors for anything i look at with the camera. If there was a goat it'd say bazaar\goat.zip is giving me problems. So all i can do is wipe it off my hdd and redownload the whole lot. Maybe that would work. Any advice from ED weclome.
Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 To add i deleted wintertextures.zip, and repaired it. Now its popping up as tainted again. So im fkd.zip

HiJack Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Are you sure you are working on the correct folders? For OB: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta" For release: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World" Search the windows menu after "cleanup" and run all versions that show up. Or: from command line(Run as Administrator): C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe cleanup
Rudel_chw Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Take a look into the Windows System logs, filter by critical & Error and confirm that there are no error on the disk subsystem, as this could be a hardware failure: If there are no hardware errors, then I doubt that the problem lies within /Program Files/ as DCS's repair function would have fixed it; so I suggest renaming the folder /saved games/DCS (or DCS.openbeta) it will be a backup ... then DCS will create a new saved games folder with a default configuration the next time you start DCS. Then, shutdown DCS and copy from the backup the /config folder, onto the new saved games folder created by DCS, thus recovering your Hotas and graphics configs. Try multiplayer again .. if it now you have the problem solved it means that something within your old /saved games folder was the culprit .. most likely something within the /Mods subfolder.

Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 ......... You did it. My saved game folder was the culprit, deleted that ran dcs and no problems. Thank-you so much !
HiJack Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 ......... You did it. My saved game folder was the culprit, deleted that ran dcs and no problems. Thank-you so much ! This was recommended to you earlier so I did not suggest to do this again. I also recommend to just rename the saved gamed DCS folders if you have trouble. Ramsay specifically suggests looking for mods in your saved games folder. Check your "Saved Games\DCS" folder as some mods will cause IC issues. IIRC, tacview and the 476th Range Objects are ok, but VPC Airfield Equipment and perhaps US Navy Equipment are not ("Saved Games\DCS\mods\tech"). I'm not sure how the A-4E Skyhawk fairs ("Saved Games\DCS\mods\aircraft"). Skins ("Saved Games\DCS\Liveries") *should* be ok but YMMV. But glad you now have a working DCS World. :thumbup:
Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 Yes and i did! No mods at all. I just deleted everything in saved games. Thanks everyone for helping me get back into the air.
Big Nuts Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 This was recommended to you earlier so I did not suggest to do this again. I also recommend to just rename the saved gamed DCS folders if you have trouble Where i didn't see that anywhere? Just checked and see no reference to it. Only mention of mods, which i had none.
Rudel_chw Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 ... I just deleted everything in saved games. ... Glad you are flying now, but please note that I suggested renaming rather than deleting, thus keeping the old folders as backup ... so you could restore your Hotas & graphics configs. Other items that you may have wanted to recover is the /MissionEditor/Logbook.lua file, as it contains your logbook and campaign progress.
