Terrain.dll CTD in FSX-SE

Recommended Posts

Any updates? I'm adding myself to the list of sufferers... Happens on every long haul flight so far.

Sorry, no for the moment except that I gave up on FSX:SE and moved on to P3Dv2.5

Thanks Rich.. I put in for the academic version and haven't really used it yet, but am reading all the good things!

So I did another test with lower autogen settings and mesh detail. No AI. No tweaks. This configuration was suggested by a few others. I flew westbound over the Atlantic EGLL-KORD. I took a more southerly route than normal, probably 300-400 miles south of Greenland overall, due to the winds aloft being favorable to the south.

 

I made it across the Atlantic and got about 20 miles inland into northern Canada before I experienced a g3d.dll and terrain.dll crash once more. VAS usage was about 2.3 GB. Once again, I experienced it around four hours and thirty minutes after loading up the sim. It's always around 4 1/2 hours into a flight. Why?! WHY!?! WHHHYYYYYY?!

 

(Yoda voice): So weird, this CTD.

mine crashes always about 2 hours and it is as if there is a astopwatch running

I can do short flights (1 to 2 hours) and use FSUIPc with regualr autosaves save 1-3 hour flights in the PMDG 737 NGX thats been tickled up by PMDG for FSX-SE . Also same for the latest 777 pmdg for FSX - SE took of from YPPH Perth and about 2 hours later same. May have to try P3d 2.5

 

Saying that the graphics and frame reates are superb in FSX-SE Beta.

 

note:FSX-SE & FSX SE beta still crashes.

 

I Have latest FSUIPC registerred from Peter Dowson. I think a lot of people agree theres a problem..

 

Apache pro MSi laptop

windows 10 pro latest build

SSD drive

FSX-Se in the 32 bit program folder directory.

 

If this issue can be ironed out by whoever it would be great days ahead...

Are there any users of FSX-SE that had any of the above that related to HDD SSD being put on standby to power save and possibly affecting this.

Interesting, I no longer experience terrain.dll CTDs. I have reliably done 4+ hour flights, up to 8 hours at times.

Are you running the new beta build of SE? Supposedly they have included a fix for the majority of the terrain.dll crashes.
