I've seen this before. Try udpating your GPU driver.

If it does not help, try a DCS cleanup and repair.

[Tusk.V]

All up to date. I'll run a clean and repair.

It happened for Normandy too.

Your DCS crashes while compiling terrain shaders. I'm pretty sure you need to uninstall then reinstall your GPU driver. I had the exact same issue after I updated my W10 to W11.

Here's another, very recent, example, with the same symptoms:

 

[Tusk.V]

I've done a clean and repair and reinstalled GPU drivers. Still getting some crashes.

 

I've attached the most recent log.
