CTD (crash to desktop) on "Fly again" for P-51 not Spitfire or Bf109

[-0303-]

Simplest possible mission (~1 second length). Single P-51 start-from-runway ("client") on Cacausus map. All mission defaults taken. Clean 2.7 install.

 

-Start mission (directly or via Mission Editor, same result)

-Spawn

-ESC -> Quit

-Fly again  -> CTD crash to desktop

 

Very repeatable, happened ~10 times, never not happened.

Replacing P-51 with Spitfire or Bf 109, no CTD.

Include mission file and crash log generated by DCS.

 

Open Beta "2.7.0.5118". PC spec, see signature  (Commodore 64)

Thanks for the data, 

 

some users are seeing a crash on second mission launch we are still investigating 

[BIGNEWY]

The crash itself here is a display driver crash. 

 

Please ensure windows and the display driver are up to date. 

try a cleanup and repair if stand alone, or a verify if a steam user.

DCS is up to date. Video drivers ... I may hold off a bit.

Windows says I already got the best drivers. That doesn't mean much necessarily.

 

If anything goes wrong I might have to restore a O/S harddisk image. If the the crashes other ppl have gets fixed, maybe this gets fixed. It mostly doesn't crash ...

 

Finding the latest updated legacy drivers is a jungle. My current drivers are from 2017. Seems there are "legacy" drivers from 2018. The code is probably not touched.

 

What is a Legacy GPU?

Legacy GPUs are older-generation NVIDIA GPUs which are no longer supported in the regular NVIDIA Unified UNIX Graphics Driver. Instead, these GPUs will continue to be supported through special "Legacy GPU" drivers that will be updated periodically to add support for new versions of Linux system components (e.g., new Linux kernels, new versions of the X server, etc).
