on a 4 day weekend, Call me skeptical on the Herc coming out…
Bloody brilliant! ![]()
This is a new one…

Yeah apparently the updater doesn’t work as it’s supposed to.
I think I’m going to have to leave The Thanksgiving Evening Festivities a Bit Early Tonight!!!*

Weeeellll…DCS won’t even load now. Not sure I’ve ever had that issue. Uninstalled the C-130 - the log file does a dump right after referencing the C-130 (FWIW). Still no go. Tried the usual things short of a complete re-install of DCS (ick). This is a no-mods install; removed shaders, etc, etc.
This will sound stupid but, did you reboot the PC between a load and the next?
I had a similar issue once.
Ok, got it to start now. Deleted the Saved Games folder. Not much was in there except new stuff from Moza (FFB stick + Throttle) with the edit’s it made to Export.lua (which shouldn’t? have been read until a mission is loaded?)…have a review on this after all the other issues are sorted…).
Still poking at it to find the real cause.
Thanks,

One of rhe little things that may have flown under the radar are a bunch of instant action scenarios for the heatblur modules. They have very snazzy and funny pixel art with rhem. I wonder if I ever drank a beer with the author of those… ![]()
Not sure if it’s related, but \Saved Games\DCS\launcher.sqlite3 got corrupted and was causing havoc with the launcher and boot. DCS will recreate it after you delete it.
Could have been it. It’s been working fine since I deleted the Saved Games folder. I was half way out the [reinstall DCS] plank for a bit.
Hotfix update for DCS
