I decided to try turning off live traffic and it instantly solved my CTD’s.

Going to try a complete reinstall to see if it is related to old files.

You describe my experience exactly.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• yes exactly the same issue. Live traffic causes CTD at any airport where live traffic may be.

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• if loading in a location where there is no live traffic, say Quenel (CYQZ) the sim will start as expected. If loading into an airport with live traffic like Vancouver (CYVR) the sim will freeze and crash the computer requiring a full hard reboot.

I was able to fix it by doing a complete reinstall. All AI traffic was active and did not have any CTD on the three sessions I did after reinstalling last night.

AI traffic still is very chaotic. Lots of traffic floating in the air. Flying in formation. Sliding through the ground at high speed across the airport.

Probably they introduced a threshold for injections, after approx 60 injections of any traffic manager the beta CTDs.

I’m suspecting that GSX is the culprit. I relinked it after my clean reinstall. Immediately had a CTD. Took the link off the community folder and the CTD went away.

• No

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Live Traffic Off = No CTD UNTIL IFR Clearence transmission complete. FSLTL installed.

EDIT: Contacting ATC for IFR Clearance in cruise causing immediate crash regardless of Traffic settings.
