Reinstalling the P3D SDK cannot possibly have any effect on this, since the SDK only contains various documentation, code samples and 3dx max plugins, nothing to do with how the simulator works.

grouner:
I did not know. I am trying anything to get this scenery to work properly. What do you suggest?

AAA Dodger:
i wish i knew how to make a video of it,that is above my pay grade. i think it might would help maybe if somebody who  knows how can do it.maybe that would help. i get it on replay every time i run it after my flight,it does not matter when,where,or how long my flight was. if i hit one of my key board keys as soon as i see the message come on screen (top left corner of screen),it will not pause just display the message and keep playing the replay. About every thirty 30 sec. or so after it gets close to landing on runway.I am sorry for complaining but it is just very frustrating. hope it can be fixed soon. there is something your test is not picking up. i have re-installed 4 or five times ,re-installed my O.S (WIN 10) 2 times.

There's no need to do a video. You just need to try to make some effort to be more precise in your reports.

I keep saying the term cache "refresh" or "restart" used liberally, when in fact there are two very different things so, I'll try to make it clear:

- A cache "refresh" is when you see a percentage progress, in red, saying the cache is being regenerated. This is supposed to happen ONLY after something changed in the Scenery Library OR if the previous cache regeneration failed. If the cache regeneration completes successfully, you''ll see a white message saying "Airport cache loaded successfully", which indicates GSX is ready.

- During a restart of the Couat engine, you are only supposed to see the "Airport cache loaded successfully" message, nothing else. This, of course, assuming the previous cache regeneration didn't end up with an error. If there was a problem with it, it will be ( or, at least, the program it will try to ) *regenerated* again, like in the fist point.

Now, there's the OTHER, completely different issue, of the supposed constant restart. In the current version of GSX, we are trying to detect the loss of Simconnect connection from the sim and, if there's no connection for more than 30 seconds in a row ( completely abnormal situation ), the Couatl engine will Restart automatically.

Now, what will happen during that Restart, again, depends on the airport cache status: if the last time it was completed successfully, it will be just reloaded with the "Airport cache loaded successfully", otherwise it will be regenerated.

So, do you realize there are two completely different issues here, which is why I need to know *exactly* what you are getting:

- The fact you are triggering an automatic Restart. This shouldn't normally happen under any circumstances, because it tells something very wrong with the sim is going on.

- The fact you are getting a cache regeneration ( do you ? ) during a restart, which seems to indicate another completely different problem, that is the failure to regenerate the last one.
