baloueb123 Posted October 23 Posted October 23 Hello everyone! I hope you can help me. Yesterday, I downloaded and installed the new DCS update 2.9.21.16362 (STEAM). Since then, I've been having problems with the Normandy map 2.0. I own DCS: Normandy 2.0 DCS: Normandy 2.0 Full by Ugra Media DCS: Normandy 2.0 UP Grade 2 When I place a Cold War aircraft on the map (A10), I can fly normally on the map. When I place a World War II aircraft (P 51), DCS crashes. When I try to load my own missions, the game crashes. The mission starts to load, but before it is fully loaded, the game crashes. If I load a purchased campaign that takes place on the Normandy map, the game crashes. I have done the following: Steam: Checked files for errors. Reinstalled Normandy 2.0. Uninstalled mods. Created log file, attached. Translated with DeepL.com (free version) dcs.log

plott1964 Posted October 23 Posted October 23 (edited) Summary Normandy terrain load triggered heavy graphics work (big clipmaps, many textures) and logged: "No suitable driver found to mount mods/terrains/normandy/assets/assetstextures.zip". Engine forced a huge preload (preloadRadius=100000) which loaded many terrain/texture assets at once. Immediately after heavy terrain/texture processing the log shows repeated "DX device removed. Reason: 0x887A0006" and a GraphicsCore crash — indicating GPU/driver/device loss likely caused or exposed by the Normandy load and missing/corrupt terrain assets. Quick targeted actions Temporarily remove/rename Mods/terrains/Normandy and re-run DCS. If stable, Normandy assets are implicated. Reinstall/replace Mods/terrains/normandy/assets/assetstextures.zip (ensure it’s a valid, uncorrupted archive). Lower preloadRadius (from 100000 down to default or ~3000–10000) before loading Normandy to reduce GPU pressure. Disable overlays (Steam/recording) and update or rollback AMD GPU drivers; test with stock clocks (no overclock). Run with user mods removed (Saved Games\DCS\Mods and Mods) to isolate Normandy vs aircraft/mod interactions (P-51D texture warnings appeared during terrain init). Collect diagnostics if repro persists: dxdiag, Windows Event Viewer (display/driver errors), DCS minidump and dcs.log around the Preload() → first "DX device removed" timing, and submit to DCS support with these files.
