    Hi All,

    I like to add that I too have been having DCS crashes since the 2.7 update. I have tried everything mentioned in this thread and I am still getting random crashes. I have a collection of crash logs dating back to May 14. Before that the last time I had a crash was in Oct 2020.

     

    I updated drivers, reversed all OC back to normal settings, increased paging files, ran the game while monitoring temps, monitored ram usage. The only thing that I see that might be a problem is that RAM usage is almost maxed out. I have not had any trouble in the past running with 16GB, But I think that I will have to upgrade to 32GB of RAM to fix this.  But since I never monitored my RAM usage in the past, I don't know If it is the problem.

    Your crash log is saying it has an issue with edterraingraphics41.dll.

     

    Is this the same in the other crash logs?

     

    Which map(s) are you flying and what graphics settings in DCS?

  2. Just to close this off, Bailey has suggested that the interim workaround is to use his offline DCS CMS Editor rather than DiCE while he looks at how to resolve the DiCE issue on a permanent basis

  3. DCS freeze and crash to Desktop without Message by using clicking on TGP Button on MFD.
     
    No Mods installed, System and DCS up to date.
    Could you please attach your DCS logfile next time this happens. Even if the DCS error dialog doesn't appear the log file may give some clues

  4. Have you tried the following suggestions from@Hollywood_315 in the FAQ thread?

    Symptom | Configuration window not open/visible using LCtrl-LAlt-C
    Cause | VAICOM profile not loaded
    Remedy | Load profile VAICOM PRO for DCS World.vap
    Cause | VA keyboard shortcuts disabled
    Remedy | Enable VA shortcuts
    Cause | Windows multi-monitor problem
    Remedy | Delete Config subfolder and restart
    Cause | Background app stealing keybinds
    Remedy | Close background app

  5. Hi guys, I have a question.
     
    when flying the Hind the module is recognised but in the control menu I can only select the Tel/auto option and not the correct radio’s. Further more I can only enter the rearm menu and options menu at mission starts. As soon as I take off I can not contact them any more even after landing.
     
    Operator error?
    You might need Easy Comms on for it to work at the moment

    Great to have it confirmed. But I guess something changed in VAICOM towards 2.7.x compatibility with the 2.5.25.x update, since basically everything works except kneeboard in 2.5.24.
    Of course obviously something changed in DCS with 2.7 as well. emoji4.png

    Having done a lot of watching it, 2.5.24 does show the same weird behaviour under the hood if you sit and watch it (if you don't touch any keys or buttons you get mission reset messages in the VA log every 2 minutes when Vaicom polls DCS). The difference between the 24 and 25 is that listening is suspended before these and reenabled afterwards in 24, when in 25 it suspends after these messages and so never reenables.

     

    I have spent soooo long watching these damn things today 🙂. With DiCE installed, both of them also bring up the mission restart messages on every other press of the TX button.

  7. All,

     

    @Hollywood_315 and I have spent quite some time in conversation today regarding the DiCE issues. I can now confirm (thanks to Hollywood's debugging) that it is definitely an issue with the way that DiCE manipulates DCS information to insert its CMS files. It does something with the lua file system that corrupts the real time state information read from DCS by Vaicom.

     

    This can only be addressed through changes to the DiCE mod.

  8. I'm not using the DiCE mod (Indeed I had to google what it was!) but am having exactly the same Listening Suspended Issue (In SP)
    Viacom works fine when I "test" with just VA open...but won't work once i've loaded DCS and joined a Mission
     
    Just to clarify - it doesn't appear to be a problem with my PTT bindings - all operate correctly and can be seen to operate in the Viacom control console PTT window (those I have bound anyway TX1, TX2 and TX3
     
    I'm quite happy rolling back to an older version if someone could point me in the direction of a) a version that still works and b) tells me how I do that!
    Do you have the community Hercules mod?

    To install the old version download the .24 version from the Downloads page on Vaicompro.com and then replace the dll in the Vaicom install folder

    yes... also when is not running DICE as you can set on options to not be loaded once made the modifications in the countermeasure programs. 

    What it happens to me is, Vaicom allow me to make the FIRST voice command, but NOT the second. So I can use a "menu" to make appear the menu, but not be able to choose any menu number as listening is suspended.

    This also happens to me not only with DICE but also the HERCULES mod. Maybe both share something. don't know.

     

     

    I am still trying to investigate with @Hollywood_315 (making no promises about fixes but trying to understand the root cause).

  10. I have now replicated the DiCE issues (hopefully in a methodical way), and sent the information to @Hollywood_315. I have noticed on my install at least, that the issues only occur on every alternate press of the TX button.

     

    I have also found that it still happens even if DiCE.exe is closed down once DCS is running

  11. VoiceAttack is now 64 bit with release of 1.8.8 version.
     
    The new version should be installed in C:\Program Files\VoiceAttack and \Apps for Vaicom.
     
    Guidance on moving Vaicom to new location?
    You should just be able to copy the vaicom folder from apps in the old location.

    I went the other way and did an in-place upgrade of VA 32-bit to 64-bit

    Ok.. problem comes as said, because two mods I had. DICE and the HERCULES The problem is that I need DICE for dynamic change of programs depending on missions, and I need the hercules, not because I fly it, but because it is needed to play with my community missions. 

    The reality is that previous version of the Vaicom plugin allowed me to use both programs and now not.  There has to be something inside the new one that is breaking the compatibility between all mods.

    I understand that the developer cannot garantee the compatibility between other mods, but if at the end the user has to select between mods maybe one day the one selected to not to be used and supported would be Vaicom, because it is more important the other mod than Vaicom. Now I cannot choose the last version and has to go to previous one to use it. Until it works with DCS changes.

    Please help. Thanks.

     

    It might also be worth asking Bailey if he knows why DiCE might be interfering with Vaicom as well
