Game-Start Problems


Recommended Posts

Hi Gents,

 

after upgrading my OS from Win 7 to Win 10 and then patching from World 2.5 to 2.7 I got the following problem:

 

When starting World 2.7 via DCS.exe the start-screen appears but over 5 minutes and more nothing happens. When I close the start-screen by taskmanager and start again in the same Windows-session World 2.7 starts as usual and works fine. In the same Win-session no problems to restart as often as wanted.

 

But in the next Windows-Session - the same problem!

 

Next I deinstalled all modules (with the exception of the terrains), I started and all seemed to work properly. After reinstalling all bought modules - the same problem as above described!

 

Perhaps a server-login- or authorisation-problem while first starting World 2.7?

Thanks for the fast reply. Very interesting. May be that it´s an 2.7-login problem. While using 2.5 a special login wasn´t necessary! Login worked automatically! Nevertheless I´ll try your methode.

Hi Simpit, it might be caused by the fullscreen mode of the game. I see you have an NVIDIA gfx card. Please try this:

 

  1. Edit C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS...\Config\options.lua
  2. Change the value of "fullscreen" to false, like this:
        ["fullScreen"] = false,

 

If it's already false, change it to true.

 

If your issue doesn't go away, please reproduce the issue and attach the resulting log ( C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS...\Logs\dcs.log - may appear as "dcs" ).

@ Pocket: No, no covered login screen.

 

@Flappie: I tried it and set the value to false, but no effect!

 

But I think it´s indeed a login-problem because I had always to start DCS twice and the second time the shortly visible window "Getting authorisation..." appears first!

 

Do you think a clean installation will solve the problem?

You should first try renaming this folder:

 

C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta (or just "DCS" - it depends on how you installed DCS 2.7)

 

Do NOT delete this folder: it contains your custom controls among other things. If this fixes the issue, I'll explain later how to retrieve your custom controls.

Renaming it will force DCS to create a brand new "virgin" one.

Keep in mind, the 'first time' you start up an app/game in Windows it takes longer to do so, filesystem caching and more things. DCS behaves very much in the same way.

On fast nVME systems it still takes quite long time to load for the first time of the day.

The next time you start, it will be quicker.

 

Perhaps as an experiment, let it run startup for even longer - perhaps your system has some other things making it tougher to start up for the first time.

Maybe you prematurely closed it before it was fully loaded in.

 

Oh, and add your DCS-folder to your Antivirus exclusion, otherwise AV will keep scanning those files being loaded, adding to the startup time.

In Windows 10 defender, bring up the "Virus & Threat protection" control panel, "Virus & Threat protection settings" section, manage settings. There you will find "Exclusions, add or remove".

Great description Panzertard!

 

May I ask, Hans Dieter, if you use a hard drive or SSD? Your signature doesn't show the fact. The reason I ask is, if I run my DCS virtual machine on a hard disk setup, it takes roughly 5 minutes to even get to the menu.

@ObiWanVA10 - you should update windows you are a couple versions behind 18362 (19H1) what you have, 18363 (19H2), 19041 (20H1), 19042 (20H2) is latest.

Sorry Flappie for the late reply.

 

I have understood you right? Renaming openbeta-folder and than make a brandnew installation of World 2.7?

 

Remark: I have a 1 TB-SSD and DCS blocked more than 500 GB in the meanwhile!!!

 

Remark 2: I just deinstalled all modules with the exception of F-18 Hornet + Supercarrier and all worked fine. DCS started after 1 minute of start-screen. Very strange!! For me this demonstrates that it´s an login-problem in connection with the airplane-modues, isn´t it?? All terrains kept installed (Syria, Golf, Nevada, ...). Also installing F-14 and F-16-modules it starts but seems to take more time (3-5 minutes or so on) to start.

 

My modules: F-14, F-16, Supercarrier, AJS-37, F-5E, M-2000C, FW-190-D, F-86F, MIG-15bis, AV-8B, F-18C, Mi8MTV2, UH-1, A-10C, Black-Shark 2.

Hi @Simpit. No, I didn't ask you to reinstall the full game. I thought the renaming of the "Saved Games\DCS..." would suffice. Anyway, it seems your issue has been fixed.

Now, you may want to retrieve your custom controls. This is how it's done:

  1. Go to "Saved Games\name_of_your_old_folder\Config\Input" (I'm talking about the folder your renamed)
  2. Copy all that you can find
  3. Go to "Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input" (I'm talking about the brand new folder)
  4. Paste
  5. Enjoy

Before we go any further, do you have the Frenchpack mod installed? Its former version was blocking DCS startup (it was updated a couple of days ago). If you have it, please uninstall it.

 

In case you don't have the Frenchpack mod installed:

Do you have any of these 4 modules?

  • Combined Arms
  • Super Carrier
  • NS430 (GPS)
  • SRS mod (multiplayer radio mod)

If you don't, there might be an issue with your options.lua file. Try renaming it (e.g. "options.lua_backup").

Hi Flappie,

 

  1. Frenchpack - never heard before - no!
  2. My modules: F-14, F-16, Supercarrier, AJS-37, F-5E, M-2000C, FW-190-D, F-86F, MIG-15bis, AV-8B, F-18C, Mi8MTV2, UH-1, A-10C, Black-Shark 2 (see above!)
  3. Option.lua is brandnew due to following your recommendation and forcing DCS to create a brandnew saved games\openbeta-folder (see attached).

 

An idea: Probably there is a problem concerning to the NS430-module cause the log-file ends allways with the last entry:

EDCORE: Loaded C:/Program Files/Eagle Dynamics/DCS World OpenBeta/CoreMods/services/jsAvionics/bin/jsAvionics.dll

 

jsAvionics.dll concerns the NS430. I have not installed this module!!!!!

Yes, sorry. So please try to rename your "C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS...\Config\options.lua" file so DCS cannot find it. It should create a new one. See if that fixes the game startup.

Hi @PatrickJames. DCS launches just fine: it reaches the main menu page ("DCS: Screen: MainMenu").

What do you see when it launches? Does your screen turn all black? Do you see DCS splash screen image?

 

Usually, I advise NVIDIA users with such an issue to disable ingame fullscreen option, but yours is already disabled...

 

I see you're using VR. Can you test without VR? Does it work?

Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.

Hi @PatrickJames. DCS launches just fine: it reaches the main menu page ("DCS: Screen: MainMenu").

What do you see when it launches? Does your screen turn all black? Do you see DCS splash screen image?

 

Usually, I advise NVIDIA users with such an issue to disable ingame fullscreen option, but yours is already disabled...

 

I see you're using VR. Can you test without VR? Does it work?

Flappie, may you be blessed by a thousand angels for your help and coming to my aid. No black screen, Skatezilla just says DCS closed and that's that. If I open DCS natively (stable) it opens. But not Open Beta nor open beta via Skatezilla updater. If I open DCS with VR off through the Skatezilla, it does the same. Just closes. Been racking my brain and going on all the forums - on Facebook I asked if anyone experienced same after updating last Friday. Many said the same thing that they did  also have dcs crashing to desktop.
