fixed DCS 2.9 crashes to desktop in MP when switching between aircraft

[skiboss]

DCS MT has been randomly crashing to desktop at different times in different MP maps and missions. Current crash was in Pretense Caucasus, in FA18, but its also been happening in the Apache, Huey and Hind. Am using TrackIR, latest nvidea drivers 551.76. There are some non-official mods installed, but it was crashing before the mods were installed so I dont feel thats related. SRS is installed and in use during the session. Frames are fine, it's just unstable and Ive no idea why.

Kindly request someone look at the attached crash log and point me in the right direction of the culprit please.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, 

the crash seems to be GPU related, do you overclock at all? or have a factory overclock?

In the NVIDIA control panel go to the help at the top and enable debug mode, this will remove any overclock, retest and see if you still get the crash

thank you

Hi again Bignewy

Have enabled debug mode in the Nvidea control panel and still experiencing several crashes in MP today. Can also offer some new findings:

Crash occurs within seconds of selecting a different aircraft on a multiplayer server. For example, playing Pretense, I can fly the Apache for an hour, land, and then switch to a Hornet (within the same session), re-arm and once I select air to ground mode, DCS instant crash. I've replicated this many times today.

If I restart DCS, login to the MP server and start with the Hornet, then it's fine. If I start with the Mi24 Hind and then switch to the apache in the same session, crash.

Here is the latest crash file.

Any suggestions on what I might try next please?

That s the "enlight::AtmosphereWrapper::precompute " crash bug. It will be fixed with the next DCS update.
