Ahhh, amend that, I paused to write my previous post after landing after I vacated the runway. I then proceeded to taxi to the gate and suffered a CTD.
Straight CTD or black avionics first?
The avionics were fine the whole flight, just paused to post here then resumed to taxi, was within spitting distance of the jetway and it CTD
Glad the screens stayed on the whole 3hrs 40mins, really enjoyed it. Shame the CTD right at the very end.

Iāll regret jinxing myself but so far Iām 5 hours into my 7 hour flight from EHAM to KJFK, havenāt had a crash or black screen issue yet. Flying the default 787. Not holding my breath though and still saving every so often as recommended.

Excellent. I can deal with the occasional CTD.
Yep happened to me at Kmsp . Feet within the gate . Now we may have a CTD gate issue .
Weāre trying to know if this has been fixed so if youāre able please avoid saving your flight to see the results without saving and loading
I remember the first day of testing had the same CTD near my arrival gate, i deleted the rolling cache and after that no more CTD but they may be random. As well 3 days ago arriving to JFK after 5hrs flight the terminal textures didnāt load, they were looking pink
Mine KDFW, was absolutely terrific up to that point, could see the jetway and then boomā¦ CTD
Yeah that airport for some reason has some CTD issues even before the update. Could be coincidental it could not .
Oh well will try again tomorrow, Donāt know if I should try the same flight plan again with the same SID and STAR or try a completely different flight.
Well good news and bad news. Good news is the 7 hour flight from EHAM to KJFK was completed without a single CTD or a need to reload the flight. The bad news is the avionics cut as I was taxiing to the gate. Used the default 787 and running Xbox Series S. Iām going to do some routes in the A320 next.
Couple things to note in case it helps anyone out. I have 96GB rolling cache, stayed in cockpit view focused on the avionics the majority of the flight. Cruised Mach .84 at 39k. I did recently change the Xbox settings to use 120fps which disabled 4K on my TV but didnāt see a huge degradation in performance or visuals. Hopeful that maybe weāre on to something!
Thank You for the report . I have a feeling that this is not resolved as itās still a memory leak in the system. Seems like maybe 2 to 5 hour flights may be the max right now .
I donāt know why anyone thinks this would be stealth fixed.
If it is a memory leak, wouldnāt it make sense that after a sim update your cache would be cleared and it would take a few flights for the bug to consistently manifest?

Agreed. If they fixed completely they would have definitely posted it in the patch notes. Hopefully at least with the stability fixes in SU6 it at least helps reduce the frequency of it occurring (we wonāt know for sure though until weāve had a large enough sample size of people testing on this thread). Todays luck could also possibly be due to people clearing their rolling cache after updating. Who knows.
This is still an item listed in the updated Known Bugs page (updated today) so itās definitely still not completely fixed.

Nope this is not fixed . Maybe cleared cache , and I will say also draw distances improved as well as other inner optimizations would buy some time but not much . Unfortunately, this will take some more time . What was in beta does not reflect release candidates. Something may work great in beta but not in the final release live .
I already made flights longer than 10hrs
Iām sorry, I have a hard time getting excited for the new content while this bug, which should have been at the top of the QA kill list pre-launch persists.
I guess lighting up landmarks blue like weāre staying at the Luxor for the launch of Win11 is more important.
It is also hard to take the devs, mods, and community managers seriously when they say something will be fixed and it isnāt.

I have everything on 0% LoL Iām installing Microsoft flight simulator until they fixed our topic
In beta yes ? This is live . Iām seeing many reports already that are stating that itās a little better but still black screens and CTD .
