...there's no words....not time to fly, I need a trip to Lourdes, ... by train :-(

The fact: egcc to eddl, as training, all is go until over Amsterdam, when, descending at 23591 ft, FS (not the client) crashed. :@
Default scenery, UTEurope, RCV4 running, default weather.
I think is not the first time around EHAM, someone experienced CTD over here?
The only good new is that I'm in traning... ;-)

P.S. an idea, maybe caused by a change of timezone, UTC+1?

Hi Fran,

Unless I am mistaken I think one of our guys was having problems in this area with the sim locking up/crashing. It was a long time ago and I can't remember how it was cured. DaveB was it you?

Regards

John

...again! Reading your msg and flying around over eham for a test flight, with only fs9 running, another CTD!!

Here's the error report, please note terrain.dll . :think:

AppName: fs9.exe AppVer: 9.0.0.30612 ModName: terrain.dll
ModVer: 9.1.0.40901 Offset: 00023a0b

Any ideas? HELP
:)

Sri Fran.. not sure what that is exactly but it's a scenery issue. Are you using the default EHAM or an addon??

John..
My 'black spot' and that of a few others was Liege (it still is on one pc but fine on this one). There are a line of 3 VOR's you pass flying to Frankfurt Main.. Liege and one either side that have caused problems in the past. Even though I don't get CTD'd on this particular pc.. I still hold my breath when flying that route!

...Dave,
no addon, except UTEurope.
Maybe today (with wife and daughters permissions :roll: ), I will try again, I have an idea...

Hi Fran :)

Like you, I had no 'specific' addon scenery around Liege other than perhaps a mesh or ground textures. The only way I found around the problem was to route away from the area by about 35-40nm. It did the trick!

I also have an odd one like EHAM on my 'flying' pc. I've found on VC10 flights LHR to North Africa (sorry, I can't remember the exact airfield off the top of my head).. the 'TO' flight is fine but on the return, I get a CTD north of Nice enroute to a particular VOR. Once more, I've learned to route away from that area as I certainly don't have any addons there :-( If I don't.. time after time it CTD's in exactly the same place! Odd.. very odd :think:

Funny did the same flight on the TR. Screen went black on approach to EDDL Rwy 5L. Using RCV4 and Active Sky. Aborted flight. No problems when I did it second time.

More like a wave as we fly past each other over the North Sea!

That last flight went much better didn't it Fran :thumbsup: Glad you're getting the hang of it while avoiding CTD's :rock:
