CRJ_simpilot Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The main reason why yo would get an OOM (Out Of Memory) condition is due to the fact FS can only address about 3-3.5 GB of data in RAM. And the way the Sim works, ALL scenery is loaded no matter if you fly there or not. So you can see right away that if you have a lot of AI planes and add-ons, you may run into the OOM condition very quickly. To remedy this, make it a habit to disable any and all scenery you won't be using (at least the large ones) in Scenery Config Editor. https://sourceforge.net/projects/fs-sceditor/ Make sure you select save after you uncheck scenery. The other option may be to just turn down some of the fluff. Go into your settings and adjust accordingly. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

The statement was simple: Any modification to memory made in your OS should be deleted and removed. All system to be returned to original status. The fact that you don't have any such mods rules that out. Yes, `too many` planes could affect OOM... as could too many scenery addons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancovitchvictor Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 this is all i'm using and vector is dissabled...............computer ram says 35% to40% and cpu 30%....and fsx crashes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdish Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 You didn't mention what aircraft your using. But I suspect you have one with a high resolution texture. Check the sizes of the livery folders, especially those claiming "4K" or 32 bit textures. Try using a livery with smaller textures files sizes.

johncott Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Had no issues for years with FSX and OOM’s until I bought a new computer and new monitors with a higher resolution. Did you change your resolution lately? I may be wrong but higher resolution equals more memory usage in FSX where display graphics uses more computer memory and not as dependent on the GPU RAM.

John C. Yes, higher resolution means `too high a resolution`. This applies to scenery, aircraft and textures. Memory does not apply only to reported memory. It also appplies to reported settings. Reduce any that are causing the OOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRJ_simpilot Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Are you indeed getting an error that says out of memory or is it some other error? It may help to take a print screen of that error box. Also, look in event viewer. You can save the application and system events, zip and upload here. The Vancouver scenery has no name. Not sure why that is. Try disabling that once and see what happens. What is in priority 1 and 2? OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options.

durhambuilder Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 You have a lot of ORBX stuff enabled. With a similar setup to yours I cannot fly IFR for any length of time without an OOM. My solution is to use ORBX for vfr and short flights and disable it for longer IFR flights. Works for me, hope this helps. Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
