BETA: Known Crashes and instructions.

[Panzertard]

Thread remain closed & sticked. Testers / moderators will contribute with cases from your own threads.

 

Customers. Please try to identify 'how can I produce the crash' vs 'how can I bypass the crash'.

This will greatly speed up the fixing & patching for the issue.

 

How to better identify the crash;

a) Please try to describe what you were doing - and trying achieve.

b) Were there specific factors involved? Were you doing something particular? Bombing, strafing, was something destroyed when the problem happened? (etc).

c) Were you just using singleplayer / user-interface / multiplayer?

d) Does the problem occur just in a specific mission? What about other missions?

e) Can you produce the problem again on command?

f) Can you get around the problem by changing some factors in the game?

 

If you're able to identify some of the factors for the crash, we'll be very greatful.

We'll try as best as we can to assist you with workarounds for your problems during the beta.

Thank you. :)

 

How to gather data for a crash;

a) Check the \users\you\Saved Games\DCS\Logs folder, see if you can get the latest .CRASH file as well as all the other *.log files.

b) For graphic related issues / crashes - please run a "DxDiag", save the report as TXT, and attach it as well.

 

To attach the logs;

- Please use "Go Advanced", and the 'Manage Attachment' button to upload zip/rar of your logs.

 

List of known crashes to follow soon.
