I had the same some time ago.
It was linked to Mouse driver issues (using a MS Mouse + driver while having Logi drivers active for Keyboard)
When I disable MS Mouse it works without issues.
Looks, that MS Driver or Mouse use high process load when ‘wake up’ after longer idle time, this caused crash.
I also monitored it on same machine on other software (Cubase pro)
is a AMD 3900 64 GB RAM, SSD’s

Random CTD just now, flying from Lands End to Bristol, about 3/4 of the way while flying the stock C152. No addons except the Asobo stock world packs (UK, USA, Norway, Germany, Japan).

My system is quite old now, but it does get consistent frames. I have abused the ever loving sh*t out of it for years and it’s been rock solid stable, I’ve never had issues outside of this one bit of software. I am running a burn-in test as we speak with no problems. I don’t think it’s my hardware that’s at fault.

I was considering upgrading my PC to run this thing better but looking at how many people are getting CTDs with much better hardware, I think I’ll hold off… and won’t be investing further in this title. This really hasn’t moved on in two years, has it?

Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?

No

Hi,

I’ve been having a similar issue since SU9. I thought it may have been related to traffic (shipping, cars and aircraft) and seemed to get linger flights with the traffic sliders turned to zero.

I don’t fly the stock aircraft though, so it may be something unrelated.

You could always give it a try and let us know if it improves anything.

Yeah because there’s no actual error reporting we have to resort to voodoo to try and get this thing to work, don’t we? Why is this still a thing? How is “5” an acceptable error code in this day and age? You might as well shrug your shoulders and say “it broke”. Forza does the exact same thing so I wonder if this is a microsoft thing.

Why can other games, other sims tell you what file, what line, caused an error but a multi-billion dollar effort like MS can’t?

Same with PS tbh. When something crashes out you get nothing meaningful.

I’m beta testing an aircraft so doing some longer runs and thats when its started. I looks like it might be driver related at my end as when you dig into the logs it talks about kernel mode error. Trouble is I don’t know which one. Its not Nvidia.

Try to enable Debug Mode in nVidia Control Panel.
This seemed to fix my CTD problem (RTX 2080 Super) when FPS is uncapped.
