IT CAN !! I have seen more and more memory reports over the different feedback channels along the time, with pikes at each photogrammetry update ! Even Jorg (producer) told that “what happen on the UK update must not happen again about the too many vertices in London” for example…
If I follow my memory useage sionce alpha, it has only come up on my end.
I have a 3700X, X570MB, 32Gb DDR4 RAM, SSD M-2 5500Gb/s, RTX 2080. Still I have nice CTD happening where MSFS goes OOM
And those are ONLY over photogrammetry.
One of the many problem of photogrammetry is that it is very greedy in VRAM/ RAM. Besides all other limitations which are numerous !
