Just read that myself, lowered some settings, nothing was maxed out in the first place, but lowered some texture/scenery sliders and limited my fps to 30 from unlimited.
Trying the same flight now and will see what happens.
So I bought FSX steam...
Test flight, with UK2000 EGCC and CLS 747.
EGCC>EDDP, no issues.
EDDP>EGCC, Game freezes like before, but this time on approach.
So im guessing its now running out of VAS on approach to airports with scenery.
Any fixes for this?
still no fix, but fault finding is going to be on hold, as my MoBo fried itself somehow today. Playing another game and everything dies, test my PSU as that was my initial thought, but that runs fine when under the paperclip test.
So yeah, gotta wait for the whole RMA process before continuing with FSX fault finding.
Nope, still freezes, got a lot further than I normally do, but it still freezing, this time whilst I was scrolling through the default GPS to get some ILS frequencies...
Will give it a try.
Flew from EGCC with UK2000 scenery in the CLS 747-200F. But crash occurs 15 or so minutes away from the scenery
Will place the new dll and try default a/c and scenery.
Used .18000, got to 34000ft and managed to cruise for a few minutes, then climbed to 36000, games froze just before hitting cruise.
Going to try the other version.
When it freezes I cant open task manager, everything locks up on screen, only thing I can get open is the start bar to restart the PC
All internet browsing is done on my laptop, FSX is running on my PC.
Downloaded the highest version and dropped it into my fsx folder, just started another test flight.
I use windows defender, Ive disabled it from doing background processes.
Its FSX Gold with Acceleration, Installed from Disk. Which version do I need?
Freezing is intermittent now, Locks up for 5 or so minutes, starts working again for a minute or two, then freezes again for another 5 or so.
