maks Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Dear ED team, Lately i have updated DCS to the new update and program becomes unplayable. Noticing slow reaction times at menus, system hanging and unable to close dcs in taskmanager so had to restart pc. If i can get to a mission , once in the dcs , low jumping fps and finally hangs , resulting in unplayable situation. Had no hardware changes whatever, if i go back to earlier version , all is solved and back to smooth 60 fps all the time. I have attached all logs for 3 situations and i hope you can recreat at your end? thanks for help brgds Maks DCS 2.9.13.6818.2 with mods , parking of cores , stable 60fps , no stutters DCS 2.9.13.6818.2 without mods , parking of cores , stable 60fps , no stutters DCS 2.9.14.8222 without mods, parking cores off , system shutdown, stutters, slow menus , fps fluctuating and unplayable , hanging of screens DCS 2.9.13.6818.2 with mods , parking of cores , stable 60fps , no stutters.log DCS 2.9.13.6818.2 without mods , parking of cores , stable 60fps , no stutters.log DCS 2.9.14.8222 without mods, parking cores off , system shutdown, stutters, slow menus , fps fluctuating and unplayable , hanging of screens.log 1

maks Posted March 22 Author Posted March 22 Hi BJ55, 1/ i think this is mentioned in the 2.913.6818.2 update , because never unparked cores before and still it runs perfect on this version , no problems at all for 2.914.8222 i unparked the cores and all is messed up , even if i park them 2/ i just installed the new version of nvidia driver ........new dcs log attached , so 2.914.8222 , no mods, cores unparked,new nvidia driver dcs and pc hangs on start up , cannot ctrl+alt+del for accesing task manager, had to restart pc dont understand ..... 2.914.8222 without mods,unparked cores ,new nvidia driver,still hangs.log
BJ55 Posted March 22 Posted March 22 (edited) Ops, sorry, I've opened the wrong log. I see a "ERROR Launcher (Main): [string "Config/MonitorSetup//2 screens.lua"]" and "ERROR LuaGUI (Main): [string "Config/MonitorSetup//2 screens.lua"]" , have you tried renaming saved games/DCS folder and see if the issue persists? There are warning/error notifications in Windows event viewer?

silentbob11 Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Looks like I have the same problems after last update Game hangs on missions. Mind you, I am not talking about stutters, or micro stutters at all. I am talking about MINUTES of game freezes (or hang-ups) sometimes even at frikin' mission planner screens but mostly during gameplay. Did a repair and latest nVidia driver and got stuck again this time on mission briefing screen. Stuck so bad I had to do a hard-reboot. Something is off with my DCS… CPU: intel Core i7 9700K ~ 3.6 GHZ , nVidia RTX2060 SUPER, 32GB 3300 Mhz RAM, DELL 24" LED. Windows 10
BJ55 Posted March 23 Posted March 23 ...Or with NVidia! No crashes/hangs here with 552.44, only stutters due to high CPU/RAM usage in some areas. I7-12700F, 64GB DDR4 XMP1 3000MHz, Asus Z670M, MSI RTX 3070 2560x1440 60Hz, TIR 5, TM WH VPC base, TM rudder, Win10 Pro

Something is off with my DCS… You're much more likely to get meaningful answers if you post your DCS log file. Do you have ANY mods installed? There are a number of them causing issues after the last update. 1

Something is off with my DCS… Like Rob says, post your DCS.logAnd you can perform a full repair and rename the DCS folder in Saved Games to reset the game back to vanilla. If that helps, there is either a corruption in one of the settings, and/or you have conflicting mods installed.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
