Loading at 74%

Hi All Pulling my hair out here. DCS has worked flawlessly since 2013. Today, it will not load past 74%.

Log shows different errors. I just buy and installed the CH47.

I disabled the mods, then removed the offending Lua files, Cleaned up DCS, then a Repair. Felete the config files and .bak environementlua file. It still will not load. Should I uninstall the lot and start from scratch or maybe there might be something else I can try.

Try to run MT preview.
Also mind the game and its engine is continuously updated. You need to update your PC if you did not since the 2013.

Hello,
the mt preview changes nothing
my PC has been updated since 2013, last week I was still playing without problems and at more than 60 fps.

DCS have preview version of the new core which is able to use up to 32 CPU threads instead the old one which is able to use only 2 CPU threads. This new core is not 100% polished yet. That's why it is preview only. The problem is: there are many new features which work only in MT preview and in the ST(single thread) version it may cause many crashes and glitches.
More about that: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/320618-dcs-multithreading-faq/

Another last known possible reasons might be conflict with antivirus. DCS uses DRM which some antivirus softwares don't like. You can try to add the DCS:W installation folder into antivirus ignore list, run repair and try to run again.

Last and new issue might be caused by outdated visual C++ redistributable libraries.
Try to download, reinstall and update VC++ redistributables. Link to download:

I also did several tests with my antivirus disabled, with the mt as you indicated to me and by going to repair the VC++ but it still does not work. as explained everything was working fine a few days ago

If nothing helps, you may contact support. I am not able to post anything but troubleshooting at this case.

BTW according to log your page file is set to quite low value. Try to set it higher. E.G 16GB
Or try to reduce preload radius.

I have had the same issue and I still have an ongoing support ticket with ED.

When digging into the lua files in the game directory, I found that the scripts were referencing code that doesn't exist at all. I've managed to get past the 74% and load into the menu by commenting out the part that tries to call the 'getServerKeySort' function, but I still can't load into any mission.

I'd recommend you contact support and open a ticket here https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/, maybe if enough people open support tickets they can identify/fix the issue.

Hello, my problem resolved itself and my game started working again. Thanks to everyone for your help. I don't think it's related because my game runs well, but just in case, I got an RTX 1070."
