Missionbug 389 Posted August 28 (edited) 2 hours ago, -DED-Rapidus said: @Missionbug , again, not the dumps...Il il2 Forgotten battles...not a great battle. (you get crash with a super_driver_adapter that might be a virus or malware) Hello again Michael, sorry for the trouble but I am confused as to what you require, I used the 'ViewCrashDumps' command that is inside the data folder of the particular install of 'IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles' created when I installed that particular version last week, those files are what it shows me. As for a Malware issue, yesterday prior to running the particular mission that was okay I had quarantined two files that Malwarebytes had instructed were a issue so are you saying that is what was causing the crash the previous day? When I installed that version of 'IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles' last week Malwarebytes would not let me start it until I had given permission for it to ignore the Il2 launcher, following that all was okay until I had the crash issues on the 27th. Anyway, thank you very much for taking a look and trying to help me undersatand what is going on, really appreciated. Take care and be safe. Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Missionbug 389 Posted August 29 As of last night I managed to fly two missions in the career without a crash, what exactly fixed things or how long it will last as of yet I do not know. I installed the newly downloaded files along with various components from the other install yet still had the crash in various parts of a Tempest career mission, still nothing in the log indicating Great Battles, but it is the only thing so far that has had the issue, or so it seems, it only happened when I fired this up. Malwarebytes was instructed to accept the launcher and the IL-2 site, still crashed. Turned Malwarebytes off, still crashed. Tried lowering the graphics components because for some strange reason I had started getting FPS as low as 30 on the European map, mine is not the most powerful machine and is some years old but I have generally a fairly constant 60 FPS, still the mission would crash. The only new hardware I have is the joystick so I thought I would re-install the drivers as that was having some odd moments. When I transferred my campaigns I also moved the file for the career, not sure if that should be done but it worked, or did it, I decided to erase that and start from fresh with a new career. So, with the last two things above done I fired up IL-2 and was confronted with a small window of the game screen, WHAT! The graphics looked poor and it turned out I had to sort out my screen resolution settings to cure that and so with that done I logged in anew and fired up the game and a new career and managed to complete the two missions mentioned at the start, hurray. First thing I noticed was the 60 FPS was back and the mouse was not sluggish looking around, all seemed okay with both missions, there was a break between the two as I went for tea and toast. So that is where I left things, I struggle with health issues so cannot use hands and arms for long so it was time to shut down unfortunately, nothing more I could do then. Not sure what restored the game and my sanity, however, I think maybe adding the drivers for the stick might have overwritten something that was corrupted or even replaced something missing, for now I can only continue testing and see where it takes me. I will try some further missions tonight and see if the game works after a nights rest and a new boot up while it is in mods off mode and if all goes well I will reintroduce some things gradually to see if any further issues arise. Take care and be safe. Wishing you all the very best, Pete. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Missionbug 389 Posted August 30 Hello again Michael, I tried the career again last night and there was no issue at all that I noticed so it would seem whatever was causing the crash has now gone, at least I hope so. I reinstalled JSGME also last night once satisfied the sim was again working without incident, added the authentic markings and again fired up the career and again there was not any problems so later I will try one of the scripted campaigns just to confirm all is still well. Still clueless as to what the issue was causing the crashes, the latest download from the site only had one event where it failed to update and had to be started again, maybe the previous one had some corruption due to the long download times and multiple disconnections I had or maybe adding the joystick drivers again helped, who knows, hopefully that little drama is behind me now and I will not have a recurrence. Thank you very much for the help, really appreciated. Take care and be safe. Wishing you all the very best, Pete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
db605Sct13 1 Posted August 31 I need to report a crash, I will be playing in the new 4.009, new missions for tanks (specifically Tiger I and Panther) and near the end of the mission each time....a total of four times now....Also once flying the 109k mission....I get a complete crash to computer restart.....I mean this crashes the computer....not just to desktop....There is a sound stutter ( happens a few times before the actual crash) Its happened enough times to note that multiple AI's are in the area, or will be soon... During the 109k mission we had just finished forming up and going foreword to the next way point. I'm not a computer wizz kid ....Its a Lenovo ....its a desktop ....Windows 10 If you need real technical data, I can dig it up no problem.... However its never happened before the update, and only in the Missions involving friendly AI Thannx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jollyjack 382 Posted October 1 (edited) Hello Rapidus, Han, et al. I installed a 4k monitor since a few days, and the latest NVDI 2080ti drvers (clean install). The game runs fine, except one time a freezing hang on booting it. But I now have constant ME crashes (4.501) on saving experiments with different planes and tigers as linked entry targets. Stalingrad summer map. I have MODs installed, seemingly running fine These ME crashes were not before with my old two 1920x1080 monitors. I will try some other missions tomorrow, but this one annoys me. PS Had all mission items deleted, and re-imported them from saved group. No difference ... Win 10 LTSC 64bit, Aorus Gigabyte (?) NVDI 2080ti, Steinberg UR22C audio, USB camera (all other audio devices disabled in Device Manager) . Second 1920x1080 monitor active. Latest crash was when left clicking on the first plane (called player} - POOF desktop. Crash happened with file v3x, saving as v4, they should be the same. Enough info? PM if more is needed? Thanks.

jollyjack 382 Posted October 2 (edited) Just tried for about 15 minutes, no mods ... seems running fine now ... looking at the crash dump, that's not for me LoL.

jollyjack 382 Posted October 2 (edited) 4 hours ago, -DED-Rapidus said: @jollyjack, is the clean version installed? Sorry for not replying earlier. We went out with the dog Might be an idea using a clean installation, I'll try that. But i begin to think it's a graphic card or monitor related thing. All worked fine on my Samsung S27C450 1920-1080 monitor. The only real change i made was reinstalling the NVDIA drivers. I noticed with the game itself that sometimes the Sturmovik splash screen letter change in size a little ... I just dragged the ME screen to my old monitor (now the 2nd one), and the fonts are really un-sharp, this wasn't before. Maybe to do with (automatic?) windows scaling. For the second monitor it's 100% (windows recommended), for the 4k one it's 150% (windows recommended) The fonts for Firefox and other stuff look OK on the 1920x1080 monitor however. Tried changing DP port cable connectors, no difference. It seems windows scaling only woorks for the main screen: Edited October 2 by jollyjack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jollyjack 382 Posted October 2 (edited) PS i have been reading around a bit, and it seems running a 144Hz monitor and a 60Hz one causes problems with various games ....

jollyjack 382 Posted October 3 (edited) FOLLOW UP: Just tried these graphics settings, for the ME exe in the bin folder.

jollyjack 382 Posted October 3 (edited) For @-DED-Rapidus: there's a windows update KB4570333 to do with scaling errors and 4k. Testing the ME now ... ADDED: I am now more and more convinced it has to do with the way windows and the ME handles scaling in relation to windows. https://steamcommunity.com/app/377160/discussions/0/496881136908226991/ Update installed, and (ME) program compatibility settings. Seems a lot more stable, had only one CTD on loading another mission replacing an existing one: ADDED 2 I had NO crashes for a whole day almost with the ME on the 4k monitor, IMO definitely crashes have to do with how the ME handles windows scaling ... Sideline, NVDIA settings, switched supersampling to multi sampling for the game, game time scaling alas only 2x now, but looks better.

Maybe at IL2 some one can look into this, as the game itself runs fine ... only the ME crashes. Gambit has the same problems, but seems to have more crashes. It wasn't clear to me if he had the KB4570333 update installed. to do with scaling errors and 4k. PS he mentioned his crashes were often with zooming, and more often after a fresh program start.

Voidhunger 701 Posted October 7 When you encountered the crash; - moving into position in Panther tank to engage enemy, hit by enemy projectile (probably from SU122) In what game mode (MP/QMB/campaign/scenario); - SP, QMB, Lapino Autumn 1942 map, 1x Panther and 4x PzIV vs 8x T34 and 4x SU122 In what mission; - Lapino Autumn 1942 QMB What did you do before the crash; - searching through the internet What happened in the mission before the crash; - just moved into position to engage enemy Additional info you think is relevant to the crash. - I had this similar crash a few times, every time when the enemy projectile hit me. there is a visible flash from the projectile hiting my tank(or my tank exploding) and stuttered sound. It looks like my tank is exploding and the camera is trying to move to 3d.

IV./JG51-F_Ferge 0 Posted Monday at 10:11 PM Sorry if this isn’t the right place, however this seemed to be the most relevant area. This is regarding the Tobruk expansion for CoD. My game always crashes when I load the Wellington I/C Torpedo version. Doesn’t matter what the mission is or what the map is, whenever I use that aircraft to fly a mission, the flight will begin loading, get to 90% or so, then crash. Happens only when using a torpedo version of the Wellington. Standard Wellingtons work fine, and Torpedo He-111s work fine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
