Crashes to desktop **solved**

(1/10) > >>

anappy:
Everytime when I fly a long flight and get close to HNL it crashes to my desktop. This is very frustrating when I have to finish my flight from Kahului

skimmer:
Does it happen on a short flight to HNL? Does it happen on a long flight to any where else? Thing is you might be out of avalible memory.

anappy:
It only happens on long flight to HNL, when departing its fine and on short flights its ok

bkircher:
Same thing, it seems to happen on long flights, but when I do a short flight it works. Its like theres a time limit on the purchased one.

There's obviously NOT such thing as a "time limit on the purchased one". Why, if something is wrong, someone always things it's related to trial and/or activation ?

The issue doesn't have anything to do with PHNL, other that the fact it's a fairly large scenery.

One possible cause is the airplane you are using might take too much memory ( there are "unoptimized monsters" out there, that take 1GB of RAM *just* for the airplane ) or might even leaking memory so, as soon as you enter in the PHNL area, were a large amount of data is being requested, if you were already on the borderline of exhausting memory, loading a large scenery will crash the sim.

You should try monitoring RAM usage with FSX running, and check if there's some kind of slow decrease over time, which might lead to a memory leak, and if there's a spike in usage, and by how much, when PHNL enters in range, which is exactly 10 nm from the center of the airport.
