Hello. DCS Multithread has worked fine for me until 4/7. I flew a mission, quit, and tried loading the sim again. From then on out I've been getting a crash at the splash screen. It's like the sim doesn't even attempt to load. I fly in VR with an HP reverb. I know there's a crash affecting Oculus users, but I don't have an Oculus. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. dcs.20240410-041117.crash dcs.20240410-041117.log

On Mission 14 I start up, head to cat i when directed, and fly to marshall. The rest of the group radios in as they push and leave the stack. I check the boat and there's 3 tomcats on deck, Olive, and the one hornet that has the VMFA-122, think the stand in for the ea6b on deck. All the jets are turning with pilots visible in them. However, they don't take off. I sat at marshall waiting for Olive, and got the play-by-play on strike as the Tornados arrived and, and one gets shot down. Am I doing something wrong? Will try pushing to the tanker and seeing if that changes anything. Running Open Beta 2.9.1.48335.

Good to know. Thought I got hacked. -
I renamed the folder and started DCS. Once I switched to VR I got the same black screen. I tried updating windows, but it says I'm up to date. My I7 processor isn't compatible with Windows 11 per windows updater. I also checked my drivers for the Oculus and graphics card. They're showing up to date too.

I updated to Open Beta 2.7.17.29140 and now have a black screen once the game starts. I get the UI music, therefore I don't believe it's a crash. The screen is black in both the headset and monitor. I went into the config folder and deleted the options LUA which reset the sim back to 2D. However, when I put it back into VR I get a black screen. I attached my logs. Any help would be appreciated.

Toggle keybind needed for many controls
sideshow replied to Flying Toaster's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I’ve started remapping everything in RSmapper to simplify things. The key binds are a bit much, but so far my only complaint. -
reported ACLS F18 CPL Autopilot not working as intended....my fault ?
sideshow replied to Darkenmass's topic in Bugs and Problems
I have yet to get ACLS to work. I set everything up in mission editor. In mission I get and follow all of the DATA queues. When I get the ACL ready command on the MFD, and the boat says "switch mode 2" I engage auto throttle and couple the auto pilot. Right under 6 miles, at 1200 feet and on angle. Instead of getting the CPL P/R, I get CPL HDG and the aircraft starts climbing. I feel like I must be missing one little step. Any suggestions? -
I was wondering if that would be the case. I only had a short time to try it out, so didn’t dig to far into it after I ran into the issue.
-
I had the same thing happen. They say "copy". then that's the end of it. It's as if because they never prime the engines, the tutorial can't continue.
-
Thanks. I did back to back repairs and finally got it to work. Had never experienced that, and I haven't hade any issues since, so all is well.

Just out of curiosity regarding the real SLAM 84E
sideshow replied to fmedges's topic in Military and Aviation
I launch the SLAM around 40-50 miles, but I set the camera to power on at around 10-15 miles from the target. Even then I don't dare attempt to steer it until it starts it's terminal dive. By then it's usually diving right the target set by WPDSG or the flir pod. I don' think the point of the camera is to pick your target out as the missile is flying through the air. -
I noticed the same thing. Problem isn't being able to locate the folder, it's the fact that the files don't populate after you enter the game.
