Crash to desktop without error message

yes it was a quick one this morning

I assume for beta its better to report issues here:

otherwise its not comparable and the assumption in normal categories is that the usage of non-beta ( I assume :slight_smile: ).

I can not say much about these nvidia issue, because I not had any issue. But I also made no special settings in nvidia controll center and I have HAGS disable since ages, it was just never real stable ( in my opinion ). At least nvidia mentioned in changelog they have fixed two issue related to MSFS.
If the new driver will not help in your case , its may be a different cause. Also because you fight since a long time with crashs.

OK everyone…please DELETE the Mooney by Cerenado if it is one of your purchased aircraft…first of all, Cerenado is known for buggy software and lousy customer support. This mod is NOT compatible with the latest version of MSFS. They neglect to update it to be compatible. I thought Just Flight’s Piper Arrow was not updated properly since the EFB tablet and DME display/yoke display was off…and the electrical system was not working correctly. Just Flight told me to check mods - and I happened to click the Mooney and every time I would load it to my hanger, the sim would crash in a few seconds…so This has not been updated properly. The Piper Arrow aircraft is working again.

I feel Just Flight’s support and products are second to none, and the few aircraft they have are the best the sim has to offer for fun and realism.

Same issue here. What 's happening. Why not roll back to version 6 Asobo? Lot of people are complaining an like my case, I have been a complete week implementing all the recomendation. Still in the same problem.

Yes, I am getting CTDs too which is unusual for me! Back to back today and yesterday! I have the beta running and the 496 Nvidia Driver (so not the latest ones that are causing problem)! Can’t even do a flight any more! It’s pretty sad…

Ok. I was able to get back to a nearly stable environment. First I installed 64GB of memory. Weird enough this memory is not used but stabilizes. Second I changed the DNS setting to 1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1 one of the fastest DNS in case the loading of data is not performed via direct IP addressing. The “piece de resistance” always was the preset New York flight with quick view turn. With such an amount of memory and the quick DNS the simulation still judders but does not crash. But 64GB of memory when often only 18 are used is really an overkill to keep the simulation stable.

Hi Ken,

I own and fly the Mooney without crashs.

As mentioned

, if you are on beta please report issue in beta channels. The developers need your feedback.

On current stable MSFS version all works fine.

since this morning, i get ctds within a few minutes of starting up its really frustrating.
this beta no longer works for me, i just dont understand how it can become this unstable for me overnight

where do i report this on here for beta, not a regular ticket

here , that I linked :slight_smile: … the purple area…

Which Nvidia driver are you using? I recommend 472.47 ( Early November, studio version) . I have the Beta…no CTD and good FPS since I installed this one last week. Still stable today

Yes, I updated the driver and so far I have had 4 non-CTD flights. Hope it stays that way…

FIXED : Thanks. See a solution to NVidia related users for CTDs here 100% reproducible CTD at specific coordinates for months [grammar.pggmod] - #99 by jubbaC

Hi I have an issue with payware aircraft each time I select an aircraft I havet from the store when I’m loading the game just after Clicking the Ready to FLY, the game crash to Desktop.

Please help.

I’m having CTD before the game even gets to the first splash screen. The game “launches” and terminates with no error message after a black screen and loading wheel for about 3-4 seconds. I tried everything on the basic and advanced troubleshooting checklists - fresh game reinstall, reinstall gaming services, visual c++ packages, etc… I’ve tried many combos of windows builds and recent nvidia drivers with absolutely no improvement.

I just format my PC fresh install of windows 11 and Flight Sim 2020.
I have a CTD only when I start a new flight with a plane I bought from the sim market. Otherwise no problem.
So I can not play with the plane I payed for.

Can I sent a video for you guys to see what happening ?
What I can do ?

inform the developer :wink:

PS: additional you can give the community more informations about the aircraft to bought and may be the log-message from windows event viewer.

I found an answer I put directx 11 not directx 12 in option.

Haven played for a couple of weeks, so had to update the game today when i started it. Several ctd:s during it, no warnings no nothing.

Then after it was updated the problem continued, just random crashes, when starting the gane up, or when in the air, no warrnings no messages.

Could be my pc ofcourse, run a i7 11700 and a gtx 3070 and 32gb of ram. So gonna go play some other games and see what happens.
