Ian Boys UK Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 DCS generally works fine for me except in one area - when I go into the Adjust Controls Screen I have regular lock ups that need a hard restart about 75% of the time or resolve themselves after a minute or so about a quarter of the time. This happens in multi, single player modes and in the controls section of the pregame seettings tab. This evening (F4 release) it has crashed about 15 times, SO annoying! Geforce experience shows CPU and GPU use both low (under 50%). (Steam version)

If that solves it, you have some corruption in the settings of one of your modules. Copy the folders back one by one until you the find the culprit.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1
Ian Boys UK Posted May 22, 2024 Author Posted May 22, 2024 Thank you. I think I understood that? I renamed the input folder to input 2 and created a new input folder. Now I copy the subfolders from Input2 to Input until I find the problem?

Now starting DCS would have created a new input folder, and it shouldn't be an issue you did it manually. Now, start DCS, and check if everything works. You can check the input settings even if you don't hop into a module. If you can successfully do that, and alter what you need for the Phantom. Then I would hop into it in a QS mission to make sure. THEN I would exit DCS, and copy the folders back, one by one. Which can obviously be pretty tedious. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
Ian Boys UK Posted May 22, 2024 Author Posted May 22, 2024 I will try ... thank you. What do I do if it still locks up with just the F4E in the folder?
Ian Boys UK Posted May 22, 2024 Author Posted May 22, 2024 Yes, with ONLY the F4E in inputs, it still locks up. So not solved, unfortunately.
Ian Boys UK Posted May 23, 2024 Author Posted May 23, 2024 So many crashes, just trying to change a control. Has quite spoiled the F4E release tbh.
Flappie Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 Could you please attach a dcs.log file so we can find some clues? And the latest zip file from your Logs folder as well. If you have a Virpil device, try this: Another solution here: ---
Ian Boys UK Posted May 25, 2024 Author Posted May 25, 2024 Hi Flappie, Updated Virpil software, did not fix. However, solution found - if Folder View enabled in Adjust Control Screen, then no more crashes. Solved by @Mr_sukebe
