Troubleshooting
When you submit the bug report you should include following files/information:
- full text from the error screen field
- both generated mission files (under Saved Games\DCS\Missions)
- general description of the problem
Some typical issues that could be fixed by yourself:
If it happens that your user profile directory is on one drive, and Saved Games is on the other, you could edit the start.bat
file to point to correct path. Replace %UserProfile%\Saved Games\
with path to your "Saved Games" folder, i.e., if your DCS folder is D:\Saved Games\DCS
your start.bat
should look like this:
py.exe __init__.py "D:\Saved Games" "1.x.x"
By default application will use the DCS.openbeta if it exists. To change that edit the start.bat file adding the --force-stable-DCS
to the end of the file:
py.exe __init__.py "%UserProfile%" "1.x.x" --force-stable-DCS
Campaign will use following paths to put the files in:
- \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta
- \Saved Games\DCS
Where <user folder>
is typically a "C:\Users<username>".
If the first one is present it will always be used. If it happens that you need to use both directories simultaneously you can still load the mission by mission editor which should let you load the mission from anywhere on the hard drive. Don't forget to choose the DCS.openbeta
directory while saving debriefing by Save debriefing
dialog too!
If you host a multiplayer server it would lock the mission file so it could not be changed while it's running. For now you'd have to restart it for every mission, and later I'll figure out some workaround for it.
It could be either that the application crashed during previous save, or the new version is incompatible with the saves.
You could try to fix that by replacing liberation_save (main save file) with liberation_save_tmp (temporary save file preceding main one), whose are located under your user DCS directory (C:\Users<user>\Saved Games\DCS).
Somehow mission was incorrectly generated. Please submit bug report (and don't forget to attach the mission file in question!).
