More than 150 hrs. in the TBM, just sharing a very frequent crash (screen
freeze) exactly upon selecting an approach when within 35-50 miles of destination. As soon, and immediately upon review of IAF / options (procedures) in the MFD, system freezes.
Speculating I’m overwhelming the system via MFD selections ?
If I select an approach while mid-flight, MFD accepts OK.
This is a specific, repetitive crash.
(AI off, cache cleared, settings moderate except for clouds -
able to hold mid-30’s with clouds on ultra). 99% flights in the TBM.
Have been reviewing MS-Flt Sim Forum posts daily - thought current consensus was don’t add
/ avoid mods or 3rd party adds - as they were suspect in causing more issues.
My setup is clean install with only (1) add - the KEYW airport scenery, purchased thru Marketplace.
Following your suggestion / question / direction - I see there are a bunch of posts related - I’ll review and try to catch up. Is the G3000 mod install suggested ?
Appreciate the heads up … sorry for my uninformed question…
No 'mods" added or used - here is what I found using base program re: / TBM / FMS / MFD / Approach “freezing” issue…
Ensure you preplan the arrival / approach on ground before, or soon after departure while in very early stage of flight. I’ve entered my preferred arrival & approach using SkyVector weather (wind barbs), and fly my planned route “anticipating” (hopefully) destination tower will grant same arrival / R/W approach. Last several flights, (long) this has worked for me.
Issue remains - if I try to fly to a destination without a pre-planned approach in the MFD - and near my destination ---- upon entering the MFD to selet an approach per tower directives - - my system freezes - usually within 35 - 75 miles of destination.
No such issues if I “pre-predict” my arrival approach and have it pre-loaded - not activated of course. And, – if – 'live weather" agrees with my R/W - Approach selection, all goes well. Not realistic (wind & weather change) - but it works for me. No freezes or CTD’s - happy camper here, elementary as this may sound…
