Net sim post start crash

[Borshig]

Hello everyone, the other day I did a clean installation of DCS, installed a couple of modules, but we were able to play on only one server, on the other servers I catch Net Sim post start crashes. Can someone take a look? Looks like a bug

Hi, 

Your windows version is outdated, might be worth making sure all drivers and windows are up to date. 

The crash occurred inside animator.dll.

if you have any unofficial mods or edits remove them then try a repair.
Delete Saved Games\DCS\fxo and metashaders2 and try again.
Next, delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\TEMP\DCS and try again.

If you continue to crash please upload your latest dcs log, this one seems

I delete fxo folder and folder in localappdata and it's work. (i missed to delete metashaders on this step). Seems like some files remained from 2022-2023. 

P.S. repairing didn't find problems. Mb add button "manual delete this old files"? ))

 

thx a lot.

Glad it has helped,

you can manually delete the metashader2 folder DCS will create a new one when it restarts, ( bear in mind first load will be longer due to creating shaders )
