Campaign crashes after using CBU

[Squawk]

Hello everbody :-)

This is my first post here because i got a serious problem.

First english isn't my first language so please excuse some grammar errors.

 

 

I got DCS A-10C over Steam a year ago and now i've installed DCS World with the A-10C Plugin.

Worked fine.

 

My PC is FRESH INSTALLED, ALL Drivers are up-to-date, Game is up-to-date.

Everything works fine EXCEPT :

 

 

EDIT : : : : Looked that some others also have some problems. Is there a solution? Because the other threads are all about OLDER Versions of Open World

 

The 1. Mission in the Campaign...i was ordered to drop a CBU over some units. Used CCRP Mode , was about 7000 feet and dropped the bomb... looked by pressing F2 to watch if i did a good job ;)

 

But EVERYTIME when i drop a CBU the Game will crash INSTANTLY to the Desktop.

 

I'm a prof. Software Dev. so i did everything that i know how to fix problems.

But without success.

 

Is this a known bug?

Or what can it be?

 

It's the first time that i'm flying the campaign because now i feel "fit" to handle it and it's sad because of the CTD.

 

Thank you for your time and i hope you got some tips ;)

I have the exact same problem but it's not just CBU. Also canon.

Perhaps these two issues are related?

I don't believe so, here's why:

 

For those having this problem, are you trying to play the Georgian Hammer campaign, or the Georgian Hammer with CA campaign?

 

I had been trying just the same Georgian Hammer campaign since I don't have CA.

 

Yesterday I tried the "...with CA" campaign and it worked wonderfully, and has even been improved (new voice over, new mission, and ramp starts). I have flown four or five missions without a single crash. I have dropped all types of ordnance (guided, unguided, CBU, AGM and guns) and there were no problems at all.

 

At appears, at least for me, that the old campaign isn't compatible with 1.2.1.

 

Hopefully this helps!

I've been doing the "CA" since 1.2.0. The original campaign would not let me get past mission 3-1-0.

 

I switched over to the CA campaign, and have gotten up to mission 8-1-0, but since 1.2.1.6288 I can get airborne and Start hitting targets, but after a few kills, I get a Win7 pop up that "program has stopped responding" with the only option to close program. I click on close program and DCS:World comes back up like I had quit out of the mission.

It seems I spoke too soon. Literally the next mission after posting that I started getting crashes again. Although, unlike the non-CA campaign, the crashes seem a bit more random instead of always happening when ordnance explodes.

[Squawk]

So is there no possibility to fix that problem?

[HiJack]

Go down on graphics to low/medium.

[Squawk]

Hello

 

Checked... Set everything to LOW but the Game still crashes :(

Now tryed to fly WITHOUT droping any Weapons but the game also crashes when my Wingman is attacking someone.

 

Can it be a problem of RAM?

My Screen freezes for about 1-2 seconds and then CTD.

 

But i got 16 GB RAM?

Also :

 

DCS WORLD doesn't makes ANY Error Logfiles!

Otherwise i would post it here.

Hi, it does have logs. If I'm not mistaken they are at "Saved Games\DCS\Logs" or something. Their extension is .crash I think.

[Squawk]

Checked.

There are several LOGS but none with the .error .crash etc ending

EDIT :

 

Here is a link to my DXDIAG (64 BIT) Logfile.

^^ I hope ED sorts these problems out real soon. We already have enough things that may possibly cause the engine to crash:

 

- Guns, guns, guns might cause a crash.

- Explosions might cause a crash.

- Dead AI that climbs to near outer space (like 300,000 ft!) will cause a crash.

I've been having similar issues with the Georgia Hammer CA campaign. I haven't been able to pass the first mission because of crashes, and it is always at random times, no matter what I am doing.

[Madone]

I got this issue several times on Georgian Hammer (no CA), the last time, I dropped one CBU87 but I got no crash, only FPS going down, then my wingman launch a maverick and I got a CTD after the explosion. There's definitely a problem with the explosions effects, I hope ED is already working on it. Btw I use a Freetrack device so it could be the cause since FT isn't really stable :/

[Squawk]

I hope that ED will fix that :/

[Tex_76]

Here I was thinking that something may be wrong on my end.

 

I made a post in the A-10C Bugs forum here that describes the same problem. Neither the Georgian Hammer nor Georgian Hammer+CA Campaigns will run no further than 5-10 minutes into mission 1-1-0 without crashing to the mission summary screen (or desktop).

 

I'm hoping that either a smart end-user (or an official from ED) can figure out what's going on with the Campaign missions post 1.2.1.6288 update... cause not being able to enjoy the Campaign(s) is starting to become a real bummer for me.

I am getting CTD's also in Georgian Hammer usually when dropping CBU 105. It's not happening every time but pretty frequently. It seems to be instigated by the skeets deploying. Is CBU 105 less effective now as it seems to damage but not kill tanks and even soft skinned vehicles are surviving?

[parxuk]

Same problem as Ramrod. I pressed F6 for weapon view and watched the CBU 105 fall and just as it was about to deploy it crashed to desktop (brand new install, latest release, all patched etc.)

[DAZnBLAST]

Campaign mission one in DCS 1.2.1.6288, I get "DCS stopped working". Twice, each instance when CBU's hit and once when I was just banking the A10 (maybe another AI plane dropped a CBU, I don't know).

 

I don't get any .CRASH file saved.

 

I see WorldGeneral.dll as the faulting module name in event viewer.

 

 

 

Only ever had one DCS stopped working in 1.1.1.1 and that was MSVCR90.dll as the faulting module name in the event viewer.

 

Otherwise this sim is just jump dropping awesome.
