Dcs multiplayer crashing during long sessions

Hello, I have a reoccuring problem with DCS multiplayer. I would load into a multiplayer server fine and play as normal but after 45 mins - 1 hour, my game crashes to desktop. I highly suspect it has something to do with my computer memory maxing out but I've already tried the regular solutions for this (page file). Does anyone know what else I can do to fix this?

Computer spec:

CPU: i5-12600K

GPU: RTX 3070 ti - 8GB VRAM

Memory: 32GB DDR5 5600 MHz

Storage: M2 NVME (DCS application), SSD (system & pagefile)

 

Pagefile set to 32768 - 32768 on my C drive

 

EDIT: I am also running DCS MT. This crashing was infrequent in standard DCS before the patch but now it's pretty consistent.

Hi. It looks like a memory issue:

Try lowering your Preload Radius in DCS graphcis options.

Also ensure no other program is eating up memory while you fly.

Last but not least: ensure the drive hosting your pagegile has enough free space for it.

A quick update.

 

I've changed my preload radius from 35000 to 12800. I also made sure no other programs are taking up a noticeable amount of RAM.

Lastly, I changed my pagefile from 32768 to "let windows manage pagefile". My drive still has 400GB left of storage.

 

So far, I haven't crashed after a 1.5 hr session. I'll keep watch for a week or so before closing this problem.

I've been experiencing crash since the release of MT Openbeta.  I uninstalled and went back to the stable version which seemed to help a little.  I still crash out often in multiplayer.  No MODS and adjusted PageFile to 32000.  Rather frustrating... thoughts, ideas, hopes?

Thanks!

Don

Hi. Your dcs.log shows is given a 4900 MB pagefile, which is not much. Check your pagefile settings, and ensure the drive hosting your pagefile has enough free space (~50 GB).

And if that does not help, try this:

  1. Go to C:/Users/your login/AppData/Local/Temp.
  2. Delete all folders starting with "DCS".
