solved Black screen when looking at kneeboard

[Sylosis]

Hi,

I'm flying a mission in Operation Pontus campaign (F-18 single player) and I can recreate the same bug every time. I open the kneeboard to look at the custom pages added by the campaign designer and every single time the screen turns all black. The game is still running, but everything is black, except the yellow crosshair mouse pointer.

I can push ESC to have the option to Quit or Quit to Desktop. If I quit, I go back to the normal menu and everything works fine.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post about that issue, as this is not a crash per say. But I wasn't sure where else I should post.

I play DCS Open Beta, it's up to date, and my GPU drivers are up to date as well.

There seems to be an error in your temp folder.

2022-06-14 21:15:44.252 ERROR   DX11BACKEND: Can't load image 'C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS.openbeta\/~mis00003C6F.ini'. Reason: The request is not supported.

This folder is used by the game to unzip missions in order to load them.

1. Go to C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS.openbeta\
2. Delete all files in this folder.
3. Try to reproduce the bug.
