OverDhill Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 I have installed DCS_World_release_en_1.2.2.7122_19.exe for the first time and I can get the launcher to work, change my options and such but if I choose Multiplayer it says it is loading the graphics and such but when it is done I get a screen that looks clipped. I think it is some sort of map screen. The icons along the top do not do anything and there is a partial sky rectangle in shape in the left middle of the screen. It then drops to a smaller window where it goes black and locks up. I can barely manage to get back to the desktop to kill the process. Any ideas? I do not have any other DCS games installed and was just going to try the place included. I also uninstalled the game and reinstalled it and it acted the same way. I have WinXP, 8800GT, 2GB of RAM and X52 PRO setup. Lock On runs fine as well as Falcon AF. OverDhill
HiJack Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I don't think your computer can handle the game. Check the minimum spec on the installation description against your spec.
statrekmike Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 You are about 2 gigs short of the minimum spec on RAM, your graphics card will not be able to handle this sim at all. Both lock on and Falcon are much older and less demanding games.
ENO Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) Love the 88s- epic for their day but fitting of your name... No offense man. You're probably also on a 32 bit OS that can't handle any more memory than you already have. (Not even 4 gigs- including video ram) Time to decide if you're upgrading or sticking with 5-10 year old games.
