skywalker22 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) I removed all the mods as well, and the game crashed 2nd time I did restart the custom mission (in there was only using Su-27 and F-15). So this story about mods causing game crash IS NOT true at all!!! I also installed the latest Nvidia drivers, and set all the settings of it to default. It must me something to do with the game it self. Maybe are some graphics setting inside the game. dcs.log-20210420-202848.zip Edited April 20, 2021 by mitja_bonca 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 20, 2021 ED Team Share Posted April 20, 2021 Hi lots of shader errors in the log. Try deleting your fxo and metashader2 folder in saved games dcs folder. the crash is the display driver, are you overclocking or does your card have a factory overclock? 1 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Yes, the folder is now emptied by DCS when you stop flying or exit the game. Fly a bit, Alt+Tab to Windows, and you will see files in this folder.

When I restarted my 1st mission I got the crash again. So this doesn`t help. dcs.log-20210421-132811.zip Btw, there is again 1 shader error in latest log file.

skywalker22 Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) What seems to help: rename the Options.lua file (located inside Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config folder) so a new one will be created. Dont forget to set all the settings ones again afterwards. Thanks to @hornblower793 Edited April 21, 2021 by mitja_bonca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had the same problems randomly. Cancelled all mods, newest Nvidia drivers, no GPU overclocking, complete repair, none of them solved the problem. The only thing that solved it was deleteing fxo and metashader2 (when the game is running) folder in saved games dcs folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
