Unrelated, however running the bin-mt\DCS.exe file on the Steam version will still run the ST version. For the Steam version you have to launch the game from within your Stem library and choose the Play MT Preview option for it to use the multithreaded (MT) version.

The next DCS patch will however be removing ST so hopefully shouldn’t be a problem going forward.
