Flappie Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 Hi @Proteuswave. It seems that your PC has no issue with your CPU, but for some reason it closes right before displaying Main Menu.

Proteuswave Posted March 12, 2023 Author Posted March 12, 2023 Hi Flappie. Ok so renamed my save game folder to "DCS.old" unfortunently the same result occurs . Any other info I can provide you and the team to troubleshoot? I know this is all experimental so I'm expecting this kind of stuff.

Proteuswave Posted March 14, 2023 Author Posted March 14, 2023 (edited) As per Bignewy's latest post. I've done what he requested and attached the new log. dcs.log Edited March 14, 2023 by Proteuswave Intel i7 6700 3.4Ghz , 32gig ripjaw ram , Asus Strix RX480 OC 8gb , Samsung 850 Pro SSD, Asus ROG VIII Ranger Z170 Motherboard.
Flappie Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 Thanks. You're having an issue that appeared long before MT. See this thread: But you don't have VR, do you? ---

Solution Flappie Posted March 14, 2023 Solution Posted March 14, 2023 Ive just found something werid in your standard dcs.log: 2023-03-10 19:46:24.726 INFO APP (Main): Command line: "G:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin-mt\DCS.exe" Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin-mt\DCS.exe It should look like this: 2023-03-10 19:46:24.726 INFO APP (Main): Command line: "G:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin-mt\DCS.exe" Maybe it's an issue with your shortcut? What happens if you launch MT DCS by clicking on the DCS.exe icon? Browse to "G:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin-mt\". Double-click DCS.exe. ---
