[RESOLVED]MSAA and SSAA cause crash.

[Ryback]

I've already send the crash report to ED, but i just wanted to know if anybody is on same train.

 

Bear with me here as i have to explain very complicated thing.

 

After the 2.5.6 patch i just wanted to take a good screenshot with augmented quality so i went for MSAAx2 SSAAX1.5 and Anisotropic x8.

 

I've started the mission.Whoops!!! No ground no objects.Only the canopy of the Hornet and blue sky! I've exited the mission.Clicked to start. DCS is crashed.

 

I've restarted the game, also started the mission with success, took my screenshot, and i just wanted to get the settings to my defaults.I've restored them again clicked the same mission ( it was a performance test / free flight around the Persian Gulf).

 

And here it is.Canopy and blue skybackground and of course a crash after while.

 

After many tests: I've found out that as long as i don't trash fxa and metashaders folders i can't change any of the Anti Aliasing settings.

 

So not sure if it's a bug, could be on my end but if anybody can reproduce please chip in!

 

Thank you!

Thanks for the feedback.

 

It maybe worth trying my crash advice link below just to ensure nothing strange is going on with settings or configs

 

please attach your dcs log if you still see the same

 

Thanks

It's gone. Everything works fine now.I've just uninstalled NVIDIA driver and got the latest. No more problems.I hope it won't happen again.Was strange though.
