Hello, my DCS World started crashing after reinstalling Windows. Previously, it crashed as soon as I launched the game, but now I changed the swap file, it stopped crashing in the menu, but it crashes in the simulation itself. Please help me, I've been trying to solve this problem for a week now. Before reinstalling, Windows did not lag or crash anything. The drivers are up to date, I tried reinstalling them. I am attaching the log file

dcs.log

You have only 8 GB of RAM, which is below the minimum specs needed:

Minimum system requirements (LOW graphics settings): OS 64-bit Windows 10; DirectX11; CPU: Intel Core i3 at 2.8 GHz or AMD FX; RAM: 16 GB;

Things you could try:

Uninstall your user modded aircrafts, like the Su-57, Su-70, etc ... to reduce the memory footprint of the game.

Add on your antivirus, a folder exclusion for D:/DCS World/

On your DCS config, reduce the preload Radius to 10000

 

But overall, even if the game does not crash, the performance with just 8 GB of ram is very poor ...  I would add an additional 8 GB, if you purchase 2nd hand the cost can be quite low.

The problem is that before reinstalling Windows, nothing crashed for me even with 8 GB. memory. It worked with the same settings and without crashes

 

OK, then the cause must be something else, hopefully somebody else will be able to help further.

There is nothing about crashes in the dcs log, maybe the Windows logs (Event Viewer) say something about it.

You are correct, I overlooked it on the log.

Добавьте в свой антивирус исключение для папки D:/DCS World/
