ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

Getting low memory popup and blacked out instruments Since SU5, MSFS 2024 on Xbox Series X on some airports (default and 3rd party versions of the same airport) and on various aircraft.

I have collection of about 30 3rd party airports, which all worked without any issues in SU4. However, since SU5 upgrade, submission of flight plan via EBF to ATC causes low memory popup and blacked out instruments on the default version and 3rd party of the same airport.

In about 50% of the time instruments recover after about 1 min but I have noticed various errors after recovery eg on a couple of occasions elevators were out of whack causing aircraft to pitch up on take of role after reaching 70 knots. Therefore the best way is to restart the sim.

My setup:

  • Xbox Series X

  • streamed content

  • handcrafted/payware airports

  • iniBuilds Airbus aircraft A320Nv2

  • photogrammetry ON

  • Live weather

  • No traffic

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

all of the times at specific airports (default and 3rd party)

A couple of airports examples so far

  • LSZH default and 3rd party MK-Studios 1.0.7
  • YMML default and 3rd party Orbx 1.2.0

Aircraft examples (all same behaviour) tested at LSZH both default and 3rd party airports

  • Albatros
  • Inibuilds A320Nv2
  • Inibuilds A330-200

With YMML Orbx and underlying I only tested A320Nv2

REPRODUCTION STEPS

  1. SU5 installed

  2. create free flight

  3. prepare cockpit

  4. submit IFR plan via EFB to ATC

  5. sim sound has static, short freezes and about 10 - 20 sec later low memory msg pops up, instrument screens go black

I only get issues at the airport of the flight origin and never on the arrival of that same airport. Eg I performed flight LDDU-LSZH no issues. Restarted sim (habit). Set up return flight LSZH-LDDU using both default and 3rd paty airports and it always fails after IFR submission to ATC. sometimes CTD other times blacked out screens and on one occasion it recovered after a minute.

Same happened on flight YMML-YSSY. Unable to get going but YSSY-YMML is fine.

Here is a list of airports that work OK (flying from) in SU5 (all are 3rd party)

YPPH, YSSY, YSCB, YBNA, YMHB, YPAD, LDZA, LQSA, LDDU, LKPR, LFMN, LFML.
