Hi everyone,

I've been experiencing crashes in DCS more often in this patch. It's not a CTD but rather a "hang".

This is the last entry on the log before the event: 

2024-12-11 10:02:26.716 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_34096897/main): position
2024-12-11 10:02:26.716 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_34096897/main): orientation
2024-12-11 10:02:26.716 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_34096897/main): velocity

2024-12-11 10:02:31.184 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_17859585/main): position
2024-12-11 10:02:31.184 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_17859585/main): orientation
2024-12-11 10:02:31.184 ERROR   ED_SOUND (Main): invalid host_params(MAIN_17859585/main): velocity

Has anyone experienced the same?

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Please attach your "C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS\Logs\dcs.log" file, it may just be a text document named "dcs" if your Windows is hiding file extensions.

Also run the Windows DxDiag tool, save the report, and attach it here as well.

Have you also tried removing all your custom mods, running a slow repair of the game (with the remove files option selected), and deleting your "C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS\fxo" and "metashaders2" folders and restarting the game?

I'm only running the A4E and no other mods. As for the fxo and metashaders I do delete them everytime there is a patch or driver install. I had removed them previous to the "event".

I'll see if I can get the log and the DxDiag, although I'm curious how the fxo and metashaders would be related to the sound issue in the log.
Thanks for your help.

Run a windows tool named dxdiag, press save everything and send the resulting dxdiag.txt

Try again with Debug logging enabled. For that, put the attached autoexec.cfg in your Saved Games\DCS\Config folder and recreate the issue. Send a new log please.

DCS.log? Re-installations won't ever be better than a repair, only takes longer time. Remove mods, rename Saved Games.

Running dcs vanilla, no mods. I have accessed  powershell to run the repair command .\DCS_updater.exe repair inside dcs bin folder.

Cool, but can you post your log? Just drag'n drop it here.

After deleting this same exact folder contents that had 140m of dump/crash files and logs stopped crashing the game.  i even managed to get an air to air kill with the Kiowa.

Today it happened twice. I'm a bit sceptical about the logs being the source of the issue, but I've deleted them.

I've already sent the DxDiag and log file and it seems to be inconclusive as to what is going on. I'm now trying with the extended log options.

Will report back.

Yes, everyone get those errors. It's from CoreMods, and ED is responsible for weapons.

please check my bug report - https://discord.com/channels/542985647502393346/1316771017632383049 if you have similar symptoms 

I can reproduce the hang 

Yep, I saw your report and it's the closest to what I'm facing. Currently, I'm away from my rig for a while, but I'll continue my investigation when I'm back.

What was the stacktracer that you were using? I could try to determine if my issue is in the same methods/code.

Its "Process Explorer" once it happens just find the DCS.exe and you can show all threads - and do the trace for the first two which takes the most CPU

Hi. Try to lower your "Preload radius" setting in DCS (lower it to 100 and see if it helps).

If it does not help, please attach:

  • your Export.lua file (from "Saved Games/DCS/Scripts") - it's OK if you don't find any, it's optional
  • your DxDiag log (here's how to obtain one)

I can't find anything relevant. You should open a support ticket:

  1. Log into DCS website.
  2. Click Support, then click "Create a new ticket".
  3. Say "Hello" from me.
