Repeated CTD's 1.18.14.0 & 1.18.15.0

Well, the good news is that the sim’s performance is probably smoother and better than it has ever been. The bad news is that the good feeling doesn’t last more than five minutes. I can’t complete a trip of more than ten miles in the Cessna 172 without it crashing to desktop. What a mess. And yes, my Community folder is clean.

Yeah, I’ve had more CTDs tonight than I had this whole year.

Same here. Almost never had CTD before. Now: All the time. In the menues, when loading a flight, etc.
It’s a disaster. :roll_eyes:

Also getting CTDs randomly - during loading, in the menus, during content update etc. Community folder is empty and I have latest drivers, never had this issue before. No error message shown.

Here is my first CTD after the latest update.
When i am looking around the plan map…CTD.

Error report like this:

  • 1000 0 2 100 0 0x80000000000000 8170 Application DESKTOP-AHR1J4F

Before yesterday’s update I’d had two or three CTD’s total.

Over about 90 mins last night I had five or six. Makes it pretty much unusable.

AI traffic is off as recommended. Community folder was removed before update and nothing’s been added back.

Same for me. Has been stable up until SU5 and now CTD randomly on load and in game. So disappointing.

Sim Update 5 on PC is an absolute disgrace. CTD everywhere.
Simply launching the Windows Mixed-Reality Portal in the background while running the sim will cause the sim to crash! Why? That makes zero sense.
Most flights can’t be started without the sim to crash.
This is beyond ridiciouls and once more we will probably not get an apology from Asobo and have to wait for fixes a long time.

But it can not be that you have to deactivate functionalities in a purchased software outside of the beta phase so that it works at all!?

After going through the update process and loading my first flight in C152 flying over Southampton photogrammetry I have to say I was utterly stunned. 70fps on a 3080, i7 over the city (I normally V-sync at 30fps but thought I’d switch it off to have a look at the performance peaks). Smooth as butter and felt very happy…THEN…after 5 mins or so CTD. I’ve had about 3 CTD’s since purchasing the sim on day one despite all the other issues. No worries, restart rinse repeat. CTD, CTD, CTD. Community folder is empty, no other programs running. MSFS 2020 is now totally bricked. Unplayable unless I want to settle for short 5 minute flights. At least the kids on Xbox will be happy flying into buildings in drone mode, if indeed it functions on Xbox.

Agree with the general theme - more CTDS with this than any other update so far…it feels fragile.
Slow install (about 8 hours)
First load up - CTD.
Stuck/frozen
No mods at all it would crash between switching views (over photogen London) - CTD
CTD with a limited number of payware flying Lydd in Cesna 152 *1
CTD when in-flight menu selected *1
CTD when changing controller profile *3 (including post patch)
CTD loading a flight in the air over Greenland to try snow ski *1
CTD loading flight *2
Frozen when switching from Naples to London discovery flight (ctl alt del out)
CTD at Seattle just as flight loaded. (post patch)
Frozen during load to Lydd (ctl alt del) in F15 (post patch)
CTD F15 fast and low from Leeds to London - CTD outside London (maybe Milton Keynes area) - No photogrammetry (post patch)
Frozen loading into London - *10 times (ctl alt del otu)…cleared cache…removed all feeware. Only payware… orbx… Can’t even load out at Thurrock.

Performance, when it works, is better (maybe about 10-15 fps) and certainly London with photo on is now do-able (though photo still looks melted and ugly).

Very glitchy jumping from cockpit to outside view - makes me nervous as it CTD’d it once.

When it works…and I restrict it to 40 FPS…I can bomb around in the F15 at extreme low level through high density cities with addons… Amazing fun.

ps - weirdly did not crash when i was flying the Spitfire out of a freeware airport during which I went into the options, cleared my cache, and created a new bigger cache on a seperate SSD and carried on flying without a single problem!

PPS - think the London issue is caused by Orbx London Scenery - I have deleted it now and have managed to load up twice in London with no issue.

How do you get to thia error report after a CTD with no message?

Event Viewer - Applications

For what it’s worth, I’ve CTD’d about 10 times in the few hours I was on. And I’m playing on the Series X.

Slow on update, CDT on first start, CDT trying to create a flight and the final insult, CDT while loading a flight. Now trying a clean install as well as expanding my list of curses.

So… what exactly is this CTD.

Sorry for asking.
