Got the message: "dcs.exe stopped working" after exiting any mission

[fzfq3m]

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

I was just trying to play the game

 

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

I got the error even doing nothing in the mission (starting from ramp). I tried unplugging my controllers and without using SoftTH but the error persist

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

Single player

 

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

The problem occurs with all missions I've tried, both with SU-25t and P-51D missions

 

e) Can you produce the problem again on command?

Yes, I just load a mission and after it loads I unpause it, then press Esc to exit mission and... Windows reports dcs.exe stopped working and ask me to try to find a solution on the web. I hit cancel and the game returns to mission debrief and show the statics of the mission...

 

It even happend to me once when I was watching my last mission, the game CTD while I was viewing my target from outside view... I think I was about to launch an air-to-ait missile from my SU-25T

 

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

Tried a couple of things... installing a fresh copy of DCS World, deleting DCS folder from my saved games, I also installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 64bits and installed updated drivers for chipset, sound, vga and saitek's drivers/software

 

I wish i could be more helpful...

 

Note: With my original Windows I was getting the message, after formating now the games just show me a frozen image in the left monitor, wich is my main monitor, and won return to mission debrif until I hit ESC

SoftTH isn't the problem

Thank you for a very comprehensive report.

I'm having a look at your problem now.

Unfortunately, with my GTX 680 I'm not able to produce the problem.

Neither can I see something obvious in your reports causing it.

I've tested on 2 different DCS world edition I have here.

 

Does it crash if you run windowed mode?

HDR / high textures off etc?

Reset your Nvidia profile back to defaults?

Hey, thanks for taking time to look at it...

I think that the problem could be my system, my cpu is always in turbo mode (2.8Ghz) even after resetting bios to defaults :(... My last resource its to flash the bios hoping it will reset everything back...

 

Weird enough, A-10C module for DCS World works just fine:huh:... but that's because that module loads a different binary than the SU-25T, right? :smartass:

Hey Panzertard, I just wanted to let you know that, as expected, I no longer suffer from this bug after I upgraded to DCS World 1.2.0 + modules. :thumbup:

 

Thanks
