Campaigns freeze in VR and crash to desktop.

[PatrickJames]

Hi if anyone can help, it will be radically helpful. I only play in VR - Rift S. i7. 1080ti. 16gigs ram.  I have cleaned out everything. Removed all mods. Game still crashes in Campaign. Instant Action fine. I have attached the log if anyone can decipher the code.

specifically "DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED". this is a common error throughout the game world. DCS has some basic tips to get by this.

it is usually hardware or drivers for the video card. hardware could be RAM or GFX card. any new RAM added before this started? ensure Windows is up to date and drive for nvia are too.

good luck!
