frequent stutter & freeze


RedShoes

Recommended Posts

I'm having a frequent (several times during a half an hour fligth) stutter & freeze.

Here the game simply stops for a second or longer. I've had freezes up to 15-20 seconds, that then still recover.

Sometimes the game just crashes completely.

 

When I look at the dcs.log file, I have noticed that often there seems to be a huge amount of sound related errors in there approximately when the freeze occurs.

 

Errors like;

02286.803 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:woLA-16779019, proto:Aircrafts/P-51D/MotorDry, alt_proto:): can't find proto

 

If the freeze takes couple of seconds or longer, Windows resouce monitor shows dcs.exe as "not responding"

 

MSI Afterburner shows GPU usage going to zero and frame rate going down.

 

Logs and dxdiag attached.

 

I have done DCS_updater.exe cleanup and DCS_updater.exe repair just before gaming.

 

I suspect that the thousands of ERROR SOUND: source_add(....., alt_proto:): can't find proto

are somehow related / causing the problem

 

Please fix.

 

 

In this particular case, It was a on-line game at Burning-Skies server. I exited the game after the freeze. Game returned to main game menu. I then pressed Quit. This lead to game crash. Crash log included in the log.zip file. Please fix that too.

Another crash.

Online game, Burning Skies server. Had quite some stutter, at least 4-5 times for more than 1 sec. Then finally the whole game just crashed. Managed to get almoust one hour of gaming.

 

DCS Crash logs and dxdiag attached.

 

Please fix.

Occured after ~50 mins of online gameplay at Burning Skies server.

 

Crash log attached.

 

Please fix.

A game freeze of about 1 minute, during a dogfight in the Burning Skies server.

Needless to say that 1 minute freeze caused me to crash :(

 

Anyhow, the game continued.

I exited the server and quit the game.

 

dcs.log and dxdiag attached.

 

The log has more than 8000 errors like I mentioned on the first post, i.e;

04579.908 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:woLA-16777990, proto:Aircrafts/Engines/RollsRoyceMerlin/MotorDry, alt_proto:): can't find proto

 

MSI Afterburner screen shot shows the GPU usage and FPS drop to zero for about 1 minute.

Resource Monitor from Windows Task Manager showed DCS.exe as Not Responding during this time.

 

Please fix.

I'm having the same issue with the exact same server and exact same logs.

The sim is useless in this state. Not only does Normandy constantly freeze and crash but now all the WW2 servers are on this version so if that is what you mostly fly like me then you are dead in the water. Trying to play just causes frustration.

One of the most annoying aspects that I have noticed is my crashes tend to correspond to me killing the enemy. So I can fly around for a long time without it crashes (but is certainly still stutters and freezes for a while) and then as soon as I shoot down an enemy my entire game freezes and crashes.

Yo RedShoes,

 

Do you have TacView installed?

No TacView or any other mods or exporting plug-ins installed. Simply to keep to game as clean as possible.

I do use TacView and some other plug-ins and mods in 1.5.6 and do not have these problems there. 1.5.6 is stable for me.

 

I'm having the stutters and freeze / crash issues also in single player mode, so it is not only multiplayer or Burning Skies server related.

 

My assumption is that there are simply still several SW bugs in the 2.1 alpha code / Normady map that need to be ironed out. From my limited understanding, several crash logs look like memory crappers / null pointer access, but that of course is just pure speculation.

The devs need to sort this out. I assume we as users just have to keep reporting these, post as many crash logs from different systems as possible and keep waiting for the fixes.

 

I have also noticed that the stutters and crashes seem to be much more frequent when I get in to a dog fight. Sometimes I can happily fly around with no problems looking for a enemy and as soon as I find one the stutter fest starts. Not exactly my idea of multiplayer fun.

Hello,

 

I don't fly the Normandy map, but I recently did a clean install of Windows and DCS. Very different than what I had before and I learned that if I now have an active program in my taskbar, and not system tray, I get repeatable stutters.

 

It is just something to look at in the long war against stutter.

There are memory leaks in 2.1 just like there are in 1.5. The memory management is probably much worse in the Alpha though.

 

I was having constant crashes, until I enabled my virtual memory file and set it to 1000MB. In 1.5 I used to run with Virtual Memory disabled. Thats it. Any bigger and I get huge stutters. With this I hardly get any crashes in 2.1.

Thanks for the info, but I set mine to 1000MB a long time ago and I have 32Gb of very hi speed RipJaw DDR3 and even with DCS I never come close to running anywhere near low on ram. I do this type of the troubleshooting for a living and I just don't see how memory leak would be the culprit in this case with this hardware and configuration.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried different windows paging file sizes or even disabling it completely. Did not make any noticiable difference. My paging file is on C: drive, windows system SSD.

 

RedShoes,

 

I'm continuing to work on this and I was wondering the exact model of your processor, do you mind telling me what you are running?

 

Thanks

 

All the info should be in the dxdiag files I have attached earlier, but here is my system specs again. Currently nothing is overclocked as I'm experiencing these stability issues in DCS 2.1;

 

MSI Z97 Gaming 5 Motherboard

i7-4790K (not OC'ed, so running boost at 4.4GHz) - EKWB custom loop water cooling

32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 DRAM 2400MHz C11

PNY NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition - EKWB custom loop water cooling

EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G2, 80+ GOLD 1000W Power Supply

2 x Crucial 250MX SSD - 1 for Windows, 1 for the game

HGST HDN724040ALE6400 4TB HardDrive for data

Asus PG348Q 3440x1440 Monitor @ 100Hz

DELL U2711 2560 x 1440 secondary monitor @ 60Hz

Oculus Rift CV1

Inateck USB 3.0 PCI Expresscard 7 (w 15pin Sata Power Connector)

MS SideWinder Force Feedback 2 Joystick

Saitek X52 Pro Flight Controller (Throttle only)

Saitek Pro Flight Quadrant

MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals

TrackIR5

 

About display resolution; earlier in 2.1 3440x1440 was running much more unstable for me than 2560x1080. Now in 2.1.1 I can not really say if there is a difference. In both cases I do get stutter and freeze problems.

 

I do get stutter and freeze both in single player (e.g. Normady Bf109 instant action dog fight) or in multiplayer.

Sometimes I can play fairly long 30 - 60 minutes with only minor stutter until freeze/crash. Sometimes I get the freeze in just a couple of minutes.

 

DCS 1.5.6, 3DMark benchmark, IL2 BoS,... all run stably in my system.

Another crash log attached.

 

Again some stutter then freeze, this time it created a crash log.

Most often it just hangs and I'll have to end dcs from the task manager.

This kind find proto error is pissing me off to know end. The error log shows the game is trying to call files that do not exist and DCS just keeps ignoring it.

 

02726.462 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:woLA-16777474, proto:Aircrafts/Bf-109K-4/ExR4, alt_proto:): can't find proto

 

The only path matching the log file is C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Sounds\sdef\Aircrafts\BF-109K-4

But the files is not there.

 

But the file in question is here:

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\Engines\DB605\ExR4.wav

or

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Sounds\sdef\Aircrafts\Engines\DB605\ExR4.sdef

 

(the spaces shown in the above paths are not there as I type them but show up that way on this website anyway)

 

It goes on and on like this, this is just lazy coding and very disappointing.

Logs are filled with these errors because it is codded to look for files in all the wrong places.

So how does that explain some, like us, suffer from these crashes, and some don't? Is their install somehow finding these misplaced files and our install is not finding them? Or the path's are correct in theirs but not ours? Can anyone confirm that these errors are the causes for the crashes? I'm really trying to be patient but it's frustrating not even being able to get 5 minutes of flight time without a hard crash.

Ya, I'm not 100% on that, I'm just pointing out what the logs show and how the files aren't there. But I'm also not trying to solve this on my own or provide answers why some work but others do not. That's ED's job, not mine.

 

But my biggest problem is just like you stated..."I'm really trying to be patient but it's frustrating not even being able to get 5 minutes of flight time without a hard crash" and also that it is not even being addressesd. At least if they chimed in to tell us were were wrong that would at least mean they are looking at it.

To the point of how it works for some but not others, I don't have all the answers but I did notice one key thing. I ran the repair and re-install several times via differnt methods and after one of the repairs I then had some folders named "rdef" show up in the Sound folders that were not there before. It increasesd the stability of my version but it still is happening. What bothers me the most about that change is that I can see no rime or reason why one repair added those folders when the repairs before that did not.

I wouldn't say it's not being addressed. BigNewy is working over-time in the Game Crash section of the 2.0 page. He's helping folks figure out resolutions to their stutter/freeze issues before they're sent to the next level, the Devs. After all of my testing, I've discovered I can only play with 1 monitor running 1920x1080p without the sim freezing. It still stutters every now & then but it hasn't frozen on me yet. It freezes when I try to fly with 2 or 3 monitors. I'm starting to believe the sim is having issues with high pixel count(high resolutions). This is my rough guess and my guess only. After my experiences & reading other posts with the same issues, that is my guess. What is your display setup? If it is with multiple monitors, for testing purposes, try with just one and see what happens and report back. Any info we can provide the Devs on this issue will be helpful, I'm sure. I really hope they fix this soon.

I too was having similar problems with 2.0 which didn't occur on 1.56 and eventually realised it was heat related.

My particular 1080 required a bios upgrade as the fan speed was designed to be slower to keep it quieter!

However, the biggest difference was me taking a vacuum cleaner to the cpu liquid cooler. I removed the fan and the radiator was 'caked' in fluff and dust.

 

It seems 2.0 requires a lot more work from the cpu to be done to work properly, whereas 1.56 doesn't.

I’m on EKWB custom build water cooling and have checked my temps with realtemp and hwinfo64. The temps are definitely ok and I generally keep dust out of my system.

I hope it’s being addressed, but that is really not the impression I get during the last several weeks!

Actually the impression I got is that the developers have been on summer vacation and pretty much nothing has been done at least for a month now.

The last update on DCS 2 change logs is from 21. June. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=146968&page=3

I have not noticed any improvement for several weeks now. I sincerely hope that my impression is wrong and the issues are being addressed with the highest priority within ED development team.

I have play with 1 monitor and have not used any multi monitor setups with DCS 2. I usually have a 2nd auxiliary monitor connected to my PC for teamspeak, browser, resource monitor, task manager,… or whatever, but have also tested with only one monitor connected to my PC.

I have several monitors at home and have tested several resolution setups. For me they all have stutter and freeze. I also initially thought that resolution has a direct impact on stability, but I have not been able to confirm that. In fact, my current view is that the resolution does not really make a difference for me. I get stutter and freeze on all resolutions I have tested.

I have tested e.g.;

BenQ XL2411z @ 60Hz 1280x720, 1600x900, 1920x1080

As I said, I get stutter and freeze on all the above resolutions.

I’ve tried numerous combinations of different in-game settings for textures, terrain textures, water, visib range, shadows, MSAA, lens effects, HDR, clutter/grass, trees visibility, preload radius, anisotropic filtering,….. deferred shading on or off,….

I’ve tried different settings on n-vidia control panel based on suggestion on other DCS 2 stability related forum threads.

I’ve also tried different sound devices (as there are a lot of sound related errors in the logs). Did not make a noticeable difference.

I’ve tried re-installing the game, repairing and re-updating the game, removing all mods, removing tacview, un-installing the game, CCleaner to remove any windows registry entries, re-installing, removing all usb-device except keyboard and mouse.

Different n-vidia drivers, with and without n-vidia experience, cleaning old drivers with DDU,…

I’ve tried 3 different PCs. Windows 7 and windows 10, 2 different cable-modems, tried having a older sitecom 100mbit router with only IP4 connectivity (instead of 1gigabit with IP6 support), tried GTX 980, GTX 980ti and GTX 1080ti on my main gaming PC….

 

After all this testing and pissing about with settings I went and did a completely new clean install of Windows 10 on my PC. Installed latest nVidia drivers, TrackIR, new DCS world 2 installation and gave it a try. Bf-109 Normandy instant action take off hot. After 3 minutes in the air complete game freeze!

 

It seems to be that whatever I do, whatever tweak, all I get is stutter and freeze.

 

Stutter is when the time between frames noticeably vary, sometimes up to 1sec micro freeze.

Freeze when the game completely freezes up. The last frame is displayed, the sound is stuck, i.e. playing the sound from the last moment or frame of the game, no reaction to controller inputs or key presses. Often task manager shows DCS not responding. This game freeze can take from several seconds to a minute or two or even longer. Sometimes it recovers. Sometimes it ends on my plane crashing (depending on course at the time of the freeze). Sometimes it ends in a disconnect / timeout from the server. Sometimes it ends in a DCS crash with crash logs. I have attached several of these crash logs to this thread already. Often I end up killing the DCS manually from the windows task manager after a minute or two freeze.

 

Sometimes I can fly for a while with no problems, sometimes (although rarely) I can even get a good dogfight on multiplayer server and it work just fine. But very often when I get engaged on a multiplayer I get bad stutter and shortly after a complete game freeze. I also get that sometimes on single player, like the 109 or Spit instant action dogfight or just flying alone on Huey or Gazelle, but I do feel I get the problems more frequently on multiplayer.

I have talked to people on TeamSpeak asked about their experience and their settings. I’ve had couple of cases where the game froze simultaneously for all three of us on the server, but mostly people seem to experience some stutter, but more rarely a complete game freeze, like I’m suffering about.

 

To me DCS 2.1.1 alpha is buggy and currently not really playable. I’d say "No Joy!"

Luckily it’s summer and there are better things to do than getting frustrated with this unstable game…. and for the rainy days there are other games that run stably in my system, like IL-2 BoS and DCS 1.5.7.

 

Hopefully, some sunny day, the devs get back from summer vacations and fix their bugs.

Here is an example of my game freeze problem as recorded by nVidia Shadow Play.

 

 

After splashing the spit, I pull up and as I look back for the 2nd time at 0:27 the game froze for something like 30-40 seconds.

This is shown only as a very short freeze on the nVidia Shadow Play recording. I assume as the game was not producing frames for Shadow Play to record.

In reality, the game freeze lasted much longer (30-40 seconds).

During this time the only a stationary image like 0:27 in the video was displayed. The sound was stuck on the engine humming at the time. No response on keyboard, mouse or controls.

Looks like the game was still calculating my flight path as plane stalled out and crashed to the ground.

The game graphics engine continued normally after the crash.

 

My current settings, dxdiag and logs attached.

The error occured arround timestamps 03518 - 03575 in the log file "dcs.log.old".

see ingame chat texts in the video;

before freeze; "Ranyer_Auate connected to server"

after freeze; "RED player Coyote disconnected"

 

A whole lot of ERROR messages in the log during that time!

 

Hopefully the devs are working hard to fix this kind of game unstability.

Makes really the game almoust unplayable to me. :(

... In reality, the game freeze lasted much longer (30-40 seconds).

During this time the only a stationary image like 0:27 in the video was displayed. The sound was stuck on the engine humming at the time. No response on keyboard, mouse or controls.

Looks like the game was still calculating my flight path as plane stalled out and crashed to the ground.

The game graphics engine continued normally after the crash.

 

 

 

+ 1 I have exactly the same issue on NTTR map as described above ...not every time , but every 3rd to 4th flight on 2.1

 

 

Interestingly, the overall Performance of NTTR is surprisingly good online and offline, so it's playable on my end ( except the long loading times) and this out of nowhere 40sec freeze from time to time...

 

 

Tips to Fix this are highly welcomed :)
