KORD Prepar3D 3.1 crash

[yvesamuel]

Hi,

I have a problem : I tried several times to fly to or from KORD, and every time I have a crash.
I have a fully fresh installation of P3D V3.1, GEX for P3D and UTX USA V2.2, UTX Canada and UTX Europe, no ORBX installed by KORD.

I tried a fly EGKK to KORD, with a PMDG 777. About 20 nm from landing at about 4000 Ft high, I had a VAS left of about 800 Mo, and suddenly, CTD.
I tried several flights from KORD, with the AS 320 or PMDG 737 (KORD CYUL) and CTD just after push back, or wwhen trying to go to some menus of P3D, but never when loading.

Any idea??? Any help???

Thank's
Yves

The KORD scenery loading range in our software is set at 10.0 NM out, which means (due the way our sceneries loads), that almost nothing of the scenery is loaded before that range, which saves the most VAS, especially if there's complex scenery nearby.

This means, if you crash happened at 20.0NM, you can be sure it didn't had anything to do with the airport. Most likely, a memory leak caused by the long flight.

Note that, there's a confirmed memory leak in P3D3.1, which has been acknowledged by LM, and it's supposed to be fixed in the next update:
