hakulus Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I've been flying the Gazelle for a couple of months, including Thursday night when I flew some multiplayer with other Gazelles on Twitch. Then starting Friday every time I pick the Gazelle I can enter the cockpit but everything is frozen. The world is alive outside with other aircraft visible and normal but nothing in the cockpit is clickable. If I try running autostart all the indications come up as if it were starting but nothing actually happens in the heli. Mouseovers on switches show the green selection but nothing will click. If I choose "clickable cockpit" the cursor appears and disappears but nothing works. I repaired, I cleaned, I uninstalled the module and reinstalled after making sure the aircraft folder is gone and I removed my inputs folder from Save Games. Still frozen though all my other modules work fine. Anyone ever see this before or have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notproplayer3 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 You cleaned and repaired so seems weird, I mean, it may be totally obvious to ask but is it safe to assume you've got no mods ? Full fidelity su27/mig29 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakulus Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 I don't think I have any. I checked in my saved game folder and there is no SA342 folder at all under mods/aircraft. The Eagle Dynamics SA342 folder was completely deleted when I reinstalled the module. Are there any other files for the module stored in the Saved Games folders or in the registry or in any other locations I should know about?

hakulus Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 One more clue on my Gazelle problem. When I enter a cold start Gazelle the doors are closed. I think they should start open, right? They are closed and everything in the Gazelle is frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notproplayer3 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) What does it say in the module manager ? And perhaps has your anti-virus cought any file from the gazelle? It might be. Sorry if I haven't got anything more precise to tell you. You could also jump to polychop's discord to ask the same question, they're usually more active there.

hakulus Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 You figured it out notproplayer3! Got this from ED: "let's try to completely disable your antivirus software, then delete this file (sa342.dll) if it present, then run DCS repair and after all check the game play with Gazelle" because it still failed to work after a reinstall. It WAS Malwarebytes that caused the problem. I disabled it, did a repair and it all works again. My guess is I need to whitelist the SA342.dll file. Anyhow it's working again. Thanks for the assistance here, guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscotsman Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I have the same problem, as Hakalus, AND I had an update to malwarebytes, done all the install/repair etc, I notice it has been missing from the Options/control section of the GUI, also that the Coremods/sa342/bin folder was empty. Done ANOTHER repair, set the a/c 6000 ft, had a non rotating falling safe, where not one single switch was operable....before impact....then I found this page...Thank you Hakalus, for some reason it took me ages to get the correct syntax for Malwarebytes to accept what I was trying to do, and accept the dll. About 4 repairs later I got it right, very frustrating 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack varus Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Looks like I've had the same problem. Malwarebytes killed my F-5 the other week too. It's a little strange because the two programs have been installed with each other for years now and its' only been throwing up issues very recently.
