Today I tried to play with a friend of mine a simple mission that I made to show him the basics of the F-14s radar. He was in the RIO seat. When I tried to attach to a catapult, his DCS froze and the DCS reporting window showed up. It happens ONLY TO HIM when he's in the RIO seat, and only when I try to attach to a catapult. When we switched roles to troubleshoot the issue, it was all okay. He taxied to a catapult, attached us, no problem. Also, when he rejoined the server, occupied the back seat while I was still hooked up, no problem. Attached are dcs.log right after the crash and my test mission where the crash takes place.

This happens to me every time that I fly RIO on multiplayer servers. The game crashes instantly to desktop when the pilot presses "U" to hook into the catapult. I know of at least one other person I sometimes play with who has the same issue.

 

What makes things worse is that after the crash, the F-14B is in a bugged state. Even if I rejoin the server and take the RIO seat again, the F-14B will not respond to the controls that I mapped to my HOTAS. In this case, both the pilot and RIO have to leave the plane and spawn it again for it to work again.

 

I would really appreciate a fix for it as this really limits my enjoyment of the module in multiplayer.

I am having this problem as well, and it's making it impossible for me to play as RIO with my friend after paying $100 for this module. I really need some help with this, and I hope that something can PLEASE be done.

So far to try and resolve this problem I have:

Reinstalled all graphics drivers

Reinstalled DirectX

Reinstalled the game

Swapped from Steam DCS client to the Eagle Dynamics Client, then swapped back. Full re-install of the game each time, from scratch.

Are you able to do some repeatable action that always causes the crash?

Please try to report here:

Most crashes are video card driver related (try different version) or too small page file (this one would apply to your current 2GB).

This is the bug report forum for the F-14, isn't it? The repeatable action is to be in the RIO seat when our pilots hook to the catapult. The hooking onto the cat being the repeatable action that triggers it every time.

It's absolutely not video card driver related; I've done a whole battery of uninstalling and reinstalling  graphics drivers of different versions, and I've even upgraded my computer since this has begun happening, from a 1080 to a 3080, and it still happens! Absolutely not related to my graphics drivers.

As for the small page file, I don't know. I have 32 gigabytes of RAM, and a 14GB page file on my computer. Unless you're referring to the Preload radius? In which case I have since raised that to 60500 and it's still occurring. 

 

Edit: And otherwise my game works fantastic. I can fly in the F-14 no problem, and hook onto the catapult when I'm the pilot. And when we die and hit respawn, and respawn already hooked onto the cat, it's actually fine and it doesn't cause me to crash.

FYI someone on the Hoggit discord noted that my DCS error log was reading my pagefile size as being only 2GB, and that it was very low. My pagefile was automatically set to 15GB total, but I figured that there was some weirdness due to me having three drives. I manually set my page file size to 16GB for each of my three drives, for a total of 48GB. 

Somehow, and I don't know why, this has totally resolved this crash. I suppose you could try to recreate the issue with a small page file size now, though.

So if anyone else is having this problem, try increasing your page file size manually!!!

If only someone said that November 8th...

🙄

They happened to be helpful enough to suggest that my 14GB pagefile might be being split up between my drives, which was the problem and what was causing the 2GB pagefile.
