Boneski Posted July 27, 2024 Posted July 27, 2024 (edited) Title Tells The Tale. This is what I get when I start DCS. I get that little number 1 in the tiles as well. Let me add I did a dcs repair. I had not played DCS for a couple of months.. and the only difference between then and now was that I added a different monitor to the setup because my old unit burned out.

TKhaos Posted July 27, 2024 Posted July 27, 2024 (edited) You need to change your monitor resolution, just click the cog on the top left and go to screen resolution, some monitors can be temperamental. If it's set at the correct setting, change it to something else then change it back. Either that or somehow it's set itself to display over more than one monitor, so check that's set to 1 as well if you got a single setup. The red number one is your module manager, so likely need to do something with a module. Edited July 27, 2024 by TKhaos
scommander2 Posted July 27, 2024 Posted July 27, 2024 Was it about the yesterday 500 authorization issue? I faced few times of the errors yesterday.

The other cause was by AV software that quarantined various files or blocked connections, with Malwarebytes and McAfee being the biggest culprits. Can do this to bypass the new launcher if you think that's the problem: Quote It's best to use something like Notepad ++ for this but you can just bypass the new launcher all together until it's sorted, you can disable it from within the launcher but need it to work first. You need to edit the Options.lua file, make a copy first. First go to 'your username\Saved Games\DCS\Config\' and find options.lua Next find the line ["launcher"] = true and change it to ["launcher"] = false (for me in Notepad ++ it's on line 137 but can search it anyway) Next save the file and launch DCS as normal and it will take you to the original login screen

I will wait a few more days before Uninstalling stuff. To see if it gets fix. Thanks for the insight.
