Game freezes and BSOD in MP

[mtd2811]

Maybe someone can assist - log attached

 

In MP /VR 15-20' minutes in the game lamost always freezes and get BSOD. This Happens with DCS only post 2.7 - no mods, all drivers up to date , cleaned and repaired.

 

IL2, Elite dangerous and other heavy duty games have no issues. Only DCS and with 2.7. Wasnt getting these before 2.7

Hi @mtd2811. Your log shows nothing wrong before the big freeze. DCS freezes are most of the time caused by:

1. a custom script triggered from Export.lua (rename your Export.lua and see if DCS gets better)
2. a bloated "%TEMP%\DCS(openbeta)" folder (empty it and see if DCS gets better)
3. a bloated "C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NV_Cache" folder (empty it, and click "Ignore" when Windows protests - some files are being used by other apps)
4. a conflicting app (start by adding DCS folders as exceptions - see below / uninstall Razer Synapse 3 / disable Wallpaper Engine / disable Tacview recording / disable NVIDIA Share / disable Windows Game bar DVR...)
5. a slow/damaged drive/damaged SATA cable
6. ...

Add these folders as exceptions in your antivirus:

• F:\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe
• C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta

Happy hunting!

Thanks

Will check 1 and 2 as I don’t believe the rest are applicable here (meaning I have done them)

You should check your Event Manager in windows to see what's the name of the module that causes the BSOD.

Absolutely. Using Windows Resource Monitor to monitor drive response time when playing DCS is also a good idea. More details here:
