resolved Suddenly getting CTD

[nick10]

Haven’t touched any settings. I was playing happily just a few hours ago. Now every time I load up a mission I get a crash in the load screen. 
 

first time this has ever happened to me.

Please attach the crash zip folder, or the dcs.log from the session it might have some clues 

thanks

should be \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Logs

Is this it? 

dcs.20210424-034958.crash

As I say now randomly getting these just as the mission ends loading up. Never had them before

[BIGNEWY]

The above crash points to your gpu crashing C:\windows\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll

but please attach your dcs.log or the whole zip folder created during the crash it will give a bigger picture. 

 

If you overclock try defaults, check the card is not getting hot, try fresh driver install.

Is this what you need? 

I have multiples of these files for the multiple crashes

dcs.20210424-034958.crash dcs.20210424-034958.dmp

Hi, 

if you sort by date you will see the most recent ones. 

Usually you will have a zipped folder that contains all files, or just the file called dcs.log will help 

thanks

Thank's Newy. You're a good man. I've updated my drivers (had never done that!) And am running tests. 

 

Is this the thing you need?

dcs.log

Thanks

How to manage your pagefile.

Thanks again for fast response. Updating graphics drivers appears to have fixed it.
