Anyone else getting game crashes to white-screen??
« on: January 25, 2012, 08:05:57 PM »
Just installed the latest update, and something's amiss.
Two attempts to fly, and two crashes to desktop about 4 minutes into each flight.

I will uninstall and reinstall, but beyond that, not sure what to do.   :frown:

Try lowering your detail range to about 3 miles, if you have it currently maxed.

I have 2 comps on the same network (mine and AAIByteU's) that white screened at the exact same time tonight.  We were both downloading the hi-res pack in the background at the time, while flying in the same place.  Our systems aren't even remotely similar, so that rules out a number of things on this end.  We both manually downloaded the hi-res pack after the issue.  I logged in and flew for a bit and had no issues.  Hopefully that fixed it.  If you're running 1024 textures or higher, I'd try the manual hi-res download.  Seemed to fix it on my end.

Mine cratered 5 times tonight but never in the beta testing...the more a/c, the more trouble.

HiRes pack was downloaded manually and installed before first wheels-up.

Fixed.  Ran 1024 max'd.  Few FR drops but nothing important.
