ohyeah2389 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Running on Steam version. Sometimes, about 6-14 minutes after starting any mission, the game just freezes, and won't unfreeze. I can't seem to find out what triggers it, it seems random. It's quite frustrating, because it requires force-quitting DCS via task manager. Anyone else have this problem, or know what's causing it, and how to fix it? Log attached in .txt format. I was playing the first mission of the A-10c hijacking campaign (i forget the name).dcs.log.txt Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7, i5 6600K @3.5ghz, GTX 1070, 16GB ram, Windows 10 Home x64 https://pcpartpicker.com/b/JH9J7P Modules: A-10C, FC3, F/A-18C, UH-1H, MI-8MTV2, Ka-50, SA342, AJS-37, AV-8BNA, M-2000C, MiG-21, F-14A/B, JF-17, F-16C, Supercarrier Maps: Caucasus, NTTR, Persian Gulf Awaiting: DCS: F-15E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trubshaw Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Are you running on one monitor or more? What is your FOV (field of view) when your freezes happen? Does this freeze happen with any other module? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] TrubshawRN -=SHREK 94=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohyeah2389 Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 3 monitors with a custom view LUA @ 5990x1080, full default FOV. Rarely with other modules.

Trubshaw Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I also have 3 monitors and Nvidia surround producing 5760x1080 and these freezes where the sound stays on and no error logs are produced are a known problem. Look at this thread https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=188804 If you read through some people find that letting the Nvidia control panel to manage filtering, antialiasing and prerendered frames helps. However, I still get such lock ups. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] TrubshawRN -=SHREK 94=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overalien Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Same problem with 3 main monitors and two Lilliput MFCDs. Various setting downgrade combinations did not work for me. It seems as if the game slows down to a crawl with about 1 frame every 30 - 60 seconds. It has not frozen entirely - sounds stays on and one or two frames are rendered every minute or so. Getting great and smooth framerates before the freeze. I recently changed to the multi-monitor setup and that seems to have triggered it. DCS 1.5 runs rock solid stable with exact same settings. Only 2.5 gives me this problem. *EDIT: I also tried 3D Settings management by Nvidia drivers instead of by game settings and this made no difference.
