Mig 21 causing DCS to crash...

[deltahawk2008]

Just looking for clues...have attempted to create new missions in Caucasus and Persian Gulf..in all instances of using old missions and newly created missions, DCS crashs ...generates bug file which I then send off...It gets part through loading the mission, then PFFT...down DCS goes..

 

I am running a fresh install of DCS (the latest stable version) on a fresh install of Windows OS on an SSD drive...

 

Just putting it out there...all other ED modules run fine...

 

Cheers

Running any mods? Any traces left of mods from previous installs? Tried a repair?

 

I know they're pretty obvious questions, but never hurts to double check. "Uninstalled" mods have caused me issues in the past.

My MiG 21 is also crashing on Persian gulf, when I equip the rocket pods, and then select to fire 8 rockets at a time DCS immediately crashes

I am also having some sim freezes when loading S-24A or S-24B rockets. Just when selecting their pylon 3-4 DCS stops working. It occurs on two multiplayer server with engines running. Singleplayer seems to be fine.

I have had the same issue, although I have noticed that switching to S-24 3-4 is fine so long as the Shooting/Bombing switch on the ASP is set to Bombing

I can 100% confirm that behaviour. Master Mode to ground && ASP to bombing and I can select pylon 3-4, but as soon as I switch the ASP back to shooting it freezes.

 

Didn't have much time to chek but it seems that on my shadow pc it works with the same open beta version. But I have to recheck that first

 

EDIT: I have no idea if it makes sense but after deleting my fxo & metashaders folder it seems to work now. I don't know if it solved the problem. I will have an eye on it later. EDIT: Still happening

I have confirmed this freeze issue and forwarded it to devs, we're looking into it.

Thank you very much!

Since last past I also have constant DCS freeze with Mig but I can't relate to any specific weapons configuration. I've been flying only on Persian Gulf so I don't know if this hapens on other maps.

Crash comes after selecting pipper and KH64 rockets or unguided rockets. Here is a video that shows how to recreate that crash.

 

Without pipper you can choose any weapon, but with pipper as soon as you choose rocket section - crash!

Here to say that I have seen the same thing. I haven't been able to get a dcs.log out of it.

Can confirm with S-24 rockets on Caucasus map. I can arm them, but the moment I switch weapon selector to them, the game freezes indefinitely. It happens with both or either fixed net or piper turned on.

Adding +1 to this. Rockets crash game to desktop... :mad:

On my missions, during ramp start, I configure weapons before ramp start so that I don't need to change switches after. This way I can fly without crashes.
