Try playing any mission on whichever map it is (eg. Caucuses), just enough so that it has to load the textures. Then after a few minutes of that, then try and edit or create a mission on the same map. For me that worked seemingly because the textures had to be “created” by running a mission.

Just do a cold start mission and let it sit on the ground for a few minutes unpaused.

Derbroomaster Posted May 13, 2024 Author Posted May 13, 2024 I stand corrected. This issue remains. I have cleared the shader cache, formatted the DCS drive and done a clean reinstall. No mods. Had one day of editing for about 2 hours with no crashing. Since that one time, I have not been able to have an editing session without crashing. dcs.log-20240510-182741.zip dcs.log-20240510-185404.zip dcs.log-20240513-205642.zip Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.80 GHz; 80.0 GB DDR4 3200 (2 x 32; 2 x 8); nVidia RTX4090 24GB RAM; 2TB Samsung 980 NVmA; 2TB HDD; 1TB SSD (System); MoBo MSI X-570 A Pro; PSU: Corsair RM1000X 3 x ASUS 27" 2560 x 1440 75fps monitors, stitched/surround for DCS 1 x ViewSonic 27" Touchscreen (Viewsonic 3420)
Solution Derbroomaster Posted June 12, 2024 Author Solution Posted June 12, 2024 UPDATE Just over the past weekend I had to disconnect one of my SSDs because of constant boot errors after coming out of POST. Additionally, the GPU was plugged into the wrong power slot in the PSU. After disconnecting the drive, plugging the graphics card into the correct PSU slot, and deleting and reinstalling DCS, I have had no problems in the editor. 1 Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.80 GHz; 80.0 GB DDR4 3200 (2 x 32; 2 x 8); nVidia RTX4090 24GB RAM; 2TB Samsung 980 NVmA; 2TB HDD; 1TB SSD (System); MoBo MSI X-570 A Pro; PSU: Corsair RM1000X 3 x ASUS 27" 2560 x 1440 75fps monitors, stitched/surround for DCS 1 x ViewSonic 27" Touchscreen (Viewsonic 3420)
