Game still crashing?.

[skipper]

Last night when i pressed fly now on the map screen the loading page went up to about 80% on the line and froze and crashed to desk top. It still doing it this morning. I no people say there are crashing is it still crashing for others?.

EDIT: I decided to Verify files and now i have to download 108.66Gib again gree.

Are you using third-party content?

As for verifying don’t do this again because you’ll have to reinstall again. When MSFS is installed if you only see two aircraft go into your profile then content manager and download the rest of the content.

No Just Standard install and all up to date and all aircraft showing. Not even bought anything from the store. Oh yes i will never Verify again FS2020 again. I will download the full install again and wait and see what happens.

Is this happening with all airports? I know on my older system I crashed at KSAN twice on loading (once my PC restarted itself). Haven’t tried my new system yet.

Yes to what i tried but be for this i can remember on loading into the airport the plane would bounce on the runway heavily. Hopefully after formatting my PC this morning and installing this again it be fixed.

I didnt format due to this i do it every now and then any way to clear stuff and as seen it only takes 45 mins to clean install and put all windows back on its pretty quick these days. It just downloading the game again which i had to do any way.

Please post again if it crashes after reinstall.

Will do but dont no how long it will take as fs2020 takes longer then all other games to install.

I would check out memory and page file usage while the game is running. 16GB is pretty low and I have been trying to optimize windows to get less random CTDs. The problem is, FS2020 easily uses more than 16GB system ram (between 25GB and 36GB depending on scenery density / draw distance)

I removed all unnecessary background process, turned off full memory diagnostics and memory compression (was causing more page file swaps than without), 29 GB page file on a fast SSD, and still the odd random crash.

Live traffic also uses memory, and big airports can be very taxing if you don't set the Airport life settings lower (I have ground traffic density at 10)

The rolling cache can hinder more than it helps. If you fly into a new area it adds extra strain on memory and disk use, than without having the cache. Turning the cache off, or even better, pre-caching the area with manual cache can solve a lot of problems.

Best is to upgrade to 32GB ram or even 64GB. Problem is, it's hard to find memory upgrades atm and mail orders are slow. I'm waiting for mine, Corsair 2x16GB 3200 mhz coming directly from China.

Btw, at least make sure your pagefile is on the SSD. Windows managed, but do not let it have a (additional) pagefile on the HDD.

That what i got a moment but 16GB. Sure it use to be alot cheaper then that for this ram but might go ahead and buy it as people told me in past for simulation you might need to upgrade ram.

4 hour in and still only downloaded 60GB and not to mention patches in game it self. Downloading at 42Mbits

[skipper]

Base game downloading just took under 7 hour now i have another 26GB in game. lol

[skipper]

After nearly 9 hours games installed and now working and with out bouncing on the runway too when first loaded up..

I might verify files just to be sure. lol j/k

Yay!
