New Launcher doesn't work


Go to solution Solved by TBarina,

Recommended Posts

When I launch the program, the launcher screen remains black. The video doesn't play in the background and it doesn't let me enter the game either. The launcher hangs.

MT version or standard version......both launchers not working.

I have updated the drivers for my video card and also tried to launch the program in administrator mode but none of those things solved my problem.

Seems like launcher is broken.

In options.lua change Launcher to false and login again:

Have you tried launching the .exe direct not from with in the dcs folder.

 

I've used the Steam "play now" options and the .exe from inside the bin folder.

Ensure the name of the file is options.lua and set Laucher to false:

Accidentally I set false but set the name of the file option.lua (not options.lua)

 

Then restart DCS. The launcher will not open and I can login in the usual way.

same here

but if you point your mouse on the left bar ( just on the left window launcher ), you can click at an invisible icom, and the launcher display is correct

Yes,  the pointer turns to hand when hovering over an invisible icon.

I have this too. I can double click the Launch bar (orange bar) and it launches. 

Also, put cursor over the left side bar of the window (it's a slightly darker shade) and you should be able to get it back into view when the cursor changes to a hand and then click.

You can also just disable the Launcher from within the game Options, Misc and untick "Launcher on start" - if you can get the game to launch

You can also disable the Launcher from one of the Launcher menus - if you can get the Launcher to "reveal" itself

When i want to start DCS World with the new launcher, i don't see any content or buttons such as my profile and settings. 
See attached image what i see. Sometimes it shows a bit more, like some text. But mostly it looks like this. I can still click on the yellow orange button and launch the game. But visually everything seems to be hidden.

I have the exact same problem from day one.

it is only a workaround but one can open \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\config\options.lua and change ["launcher"] = true, to ["launcher"] = false, 

this will only disable the launcher.
