[INVESTIGATING]Encyclopedia background is black and not blue


Recommended Posts

Posted

I had to reinstall the game. Now, when I view the encyclopedia, the background is just black. Did something change or did I miss something?

 

Has anyone had this happen? :noexpression:

 

I searched the forums with no luck.

 

Thanks for any help

I cannot open Encyclopedia. Just shows black screen.

 

+1 encyclopedia stays on the loading page forever so I have to kill DCS.exe

I have just tried from the main menu and my game just freezes. If I try from the ME then screen goes black and I have to force lose. I've tried removing all 3rd party mods. I'm using latest open beta.

Please ignore my last. I have been troubleshooting my mods again. My logs do have mods errors, mainly in relation to sound paths for mods I have installed but it appears that the 3rd party mod edge540 is my issue. Removing that mod gets my encyclopedia working again. Strange as I'd tried with no mods and then put them all back. Doing it again and removing only the Edge 540 has solved my issue at least. Suggest others might want to do the same.

 

Thanks for your time and sorry to waste it though. :doh:
