Brief description of the issue: Sim stutters severely and crashes to desktop during long flights

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:

Detail steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
This is repeatable and constant, albeit taking about 2 - 3 hours to do it. Take off, fly for a while, approach any major airport (your choice). CTD. I have all traffic sliders at 0 except for the addition of Real-Time ONLINE. There “should” be literally nothing that the user settings should do to crash this machine. If FULL ULTRA and ALL TRAFFIC is not possible, I would like to know why the settings would allow crashes in the first place. Does MicroAsobo actually test in this configuration?

I don’t know that online traffic is part of root cause.

Look at it this way, setting Offline AI to even 15 percent will put a larger load on your rig than even Online Traffic on its best day.

If your rig can’t stand up to a two hour flying session with those Offline settings, then you might be onto something.

AMD Graphics drivers are often the root cause of crashes. Ask me how I know. :slight_smile:

Look at Event Viewer and check if your crashes are due to driver timeouts. You might try installing the AMD Radeon software as “Driver Only” - the fancy extras often cause issues.

Good luck… I know how frustrating it can be, especially when you’ve put together nice hardware.

there are many many causes of ctd’s.
