Cosmonut Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) The game has been crashing constantly be it mid mission or just starting up or loading a mission. The only modules I have installed is A-10C and the SU-25. I've ran the game in administrator, there's no compatibility modes set to it and I've uninstalled the game a few times already and it still crashes. My system specs: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1, AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Processor, ~3.3GHz, 8192MB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6800 SeriesCrashLogs.rar Edited November 2, 2012 by CptMarvel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted November 2, 2012 ED Team Share Posted November 2, 2012 C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games\DCS when you do a fresh install it is recommended to delete the contents of this folder and start from fresh.

HiJack Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 ok thanks found it under mission correct? And im guessing delete any MIZ. files? Thanks No, that woyld be wrong. The folder should be under the users home folder and include a config, data, log, and mission folder. EDIT: And don't delete it, just rename it to "DCS_OLD" My DCS Tools: Quick Airfield information , Better trim with the X52 Pro , Tacview Glideslopes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiJack Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 The DCS_OLD folder is now a backup of all missions, online tracks and the logbook. If yopu for instance want the logbook back youi can copy that file back to the newly created DCS folder in My Games.
