seven10 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I've been getting random freezes and black screens in the headset and DCS not even registering the crash. I've had to kill the program via Task Manager. Sometimes it never happens in a 2-4 hour session and other times I've had it freeze in less than an hour of flight. I'm not running any overclock on my CPU or ram and have tried turning off my GPU OC but had the same result. dcs.log dcs.log.old Current system: AMD Ryzen 5800X3D | ASUS TUF Nvidia RTX 4080 16GB | G.Skill 64GB Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600mHz | HP Reverb G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution seven10 Posted December 12, 2022 Author Solution Share Posted December 12, 2022 Perhaps I've fixed this, most of the crashes were happening also post upgrading from 32GB of ram to 64GB. I saw in another post that perhaps I wouldn't need to manually set my page file amount, so I set it to be auto managed by Windows on all drives and I haven't had a crash since then.

No problem, however it doesn't seem like I've 100% solved it. I had a a couple more hard crashes over a few hours of flying so I'm trying to investigate further. Changing the page file settings definitely made things more stable, but not completely and I'm somewhat at a loss of where to look now. The only thing I've noticed is during these hangs my VRAM is almost maxed with DCS using around 15 out of 16GB on Persian Gulf or Syria. Any advice on what I should check would be appreciated. dcs.log dcs.log.old Current system: AMD Ryzen 5800X3D | ASUS TUF Nvidia RTX 4080 16GB | G.Skill 64GB Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600mHz | HP Reverb G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Was that a crash with a proper crash message, or a freeze? I'm asking because I see Tomcats in your mission. There's an ongoing bug with AI Tomcat that freezes DCS. Fortunately, a fix will be in the next OB update.

seven10 Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 A freeze, I never got the DCS pop-up for a crash and eventually Windows said that DCS had become unresponsive. Interesting, I didn't know about that. I have a different Liberation campaign I can run a mission from with no Tomcats and perhaps everything will be solid with the pagefile adjustments.

Flappie Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 If it happened during a Liberation campaign with Tomcats, I'm pretty sure you're encountering the AI Tomcat freezebug that will soon be fixed in OB.

vitdor Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) Indeed, the Tomcats are the reason I have to put the "F/A-18C Raven One: Dominant Fury" on hold. Frequent friezes in VR. I'm really looking forward to the patch. Edited December 15, 2022 by vitdor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seven10 Posted December 15, 2022 Author Share Posted December 15, 2022 I ran a turn of another Liberation campaign last night that only has USAF/Army and Iraqi units and I flew for over 2 hours with no freezing. I'm going to do another turn of it this evening and see if things remain stable.

seven10 Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Hi @Flappie Yes, I've done multiple Liberation missions that include AI F-14's. I've had 0 crashes that were DCS related. 1 Current system: AMD Ryzen 5800X3D | ASUS TUF Nvidia RTX 4080 16GB | G.Skill 64GB Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600mHz | HP Reverb G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
