solved CTD Shortly After Opening NTTR in Mission Editor

[quyes]

I'm only experiencing this issue with NTTR.  It happens both when opening pre-designed missions as well as new blank missions.  I've tried a repair, and updated my NVIDIA drivers, no change.  It's been a while since I've been in the NTTR so I'm not sure when this started.

I feel like I'm beating my head against a wall.  Any suggestions?

Hi. Your file system seems to be faulty ("IN_PAGE_ERROR" + "io::FileStreamOpen" in your log).

You need to scanyour DCS drive for errors and ask Windows to fix them for you:

Thank you Flappie.  I'll dig into that some more.  I was suspecting it was probably some sort of hardware issue.

I ran the scan per MS.  It found, and corrected, errors.  A retest showed no change in behavior.  I then ran the scan a second time, it came back with no errors found.

The logs still show "in_page_error" combined with "io:FileStreamOpen".

Now that the drive seems to be fixed, you should try another DCS repair. Use "Slow" mode.

Thank you so much Flappie.

The file system scan followed by the slow repair did the trick.  I've now had NTTR running in the mission editor for 1.5 hours with no issues!

I'm glad it worked! Guess what? I've had the same error yesterday. A slow DCS repair did the trick.
