EpicCG Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I had to reinstall the game. Now, when I view the encyclopedia, the background is just black. Did something change or did I miss something? Has anyone had this happen? :noexpression: I searched the forums with no luck. Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffon345 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I have the same issue with the lighting on the models extremely bright as if lit up by a searchlight. It works otherwise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceviper Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Please repeat the issue then attach your dcs log, I would like to look for clues. thanks I have just tried from the main menu and my game just freezes. If I try from the ME then screen goes black and I have to force lose. I've tried removing all 3rd party mods. I'm using latest open beta.

Iceviper Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Please ignore my last. I have been troubleshooting my mods again. My logs do have mods errors, mainly in relation to sound paths for mods I have installed but it appears that the 3rd party mod edge540 is my issue. Removing that mod gets my encyclopedia working again. Strange as I'd tried with no mods and then put them all back. Doing it again and removing only the Edge 540 has solved my issue at least. Suggest others might want to do the same. Thanks for your time and sorry to waste it though. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
