Two different crashes possibly related to ship's wakes or graphic effects' interactions with same.

Hi @BIGNEWY,

Could you check if the database that is fed by the DCS crash reporting tool has picked up these two crashes since the 2.9.17.117333 (Corsair+Essex+MarianasWW2) update? If it has, is there progress on finding a cause and fix?

Update: I have collected crash details for 3 different players who are experiencing the Effects.dll (2 out of 3 players) and edCore.dll crashes (all 3 players). The crash traces appear to have the same signature for all players. Below are the specs of the players and the settings from the graphics config reported in their logs that are shared across all three players.

Hopefully the team have had enough reports through the crash report tool to have begun to find the source of these crashes.

Specs:
[Player1]
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
Nvidia 3080 (572.83)
64GB RAM
Windows 11

[Player2]
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X
Nvidia 3070 (576.40)
64GB RAM
Windows 11

[Player3]
AMD Ryzen 5 7600
Nvidia 3060 (576.28)
32GB RAM
Windows 10

Graphics settings in common across all three players:
{
	['lights'] = 2;
	['canopyReflections'] = 1;
	['useDeferredShading'] = 1;
	['textures'] = 2;
	['cockpitGI'] = 1;
	['terrainTextures'] = 'max';
	['shadows'] = 4;
	['sceneryDetailsFactor'] = 1;
	['effects'] = 3;
};

Same bug on my squadron, do you use the Gazelle during it ?
