Hi. The track is included in the zips of your first posts. I replayed it and my DCS did not crash when the aircraft hit the ground.

I guess that means something is wrong in your DCS installation. The crash log has something very unusual: the dll that crahses is not mentioned. There's just a blank (fourth line, below):

The function called is "SounderHolder". Chances are your crash is related to sounds. Maybe some DCS files are damaged.

Try a cleanup and repair: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/709/#2463807

Hi Flappie.
 

Note that I have no mods install, just official DCS.

The game don't crash until the plane hits the ground. Then VR view comes grey and the sounds continues until I hit the esc key and following CTD

Will try a repair and let you know.
Thanks

Hy,

Any idea ?

[Flappie]

Please send the latest zip from your Logs folder. I'll see if you keep getting the same kind of crash or not.
