Featured Replies

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help, when ever I am in flight fs9 keeps on crashing for a few seconds everytime an atc message comes up either for myself or towards ai traffic, also whenever the weather is being updated using activesky version 6, has anyone else experienced this problem if so how do you rectify this annoyance, although I have downloaded the update for ASV6 but it still hasnt sorted out the problem. thanks.Rayek.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/for...argo_hauler.gif http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritz...tishAirways.jpg http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritzer82/untitled.jpg

Hi,Does this happen if you do not run AS?What do you mean by crashing for a few seconds? Is this like pausing or stuttering? Does FS crash to the desktop?Make sure that your sound drivers are up to date.Are the throttling options checked or unchecked?Please let us know.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter

Hi,OK wanted to make sure that we were thinking the same.Are you using Build 479? In the upper right of the main screen is the build number.Sound drivers can be found at the web site of your sound card maker.Throttling is found on the options page on the right side. In your case they should be unchecked.What resolution clouds are you using?What are your system specs?What is your cloud draw distance set to in FS04?What is your frame rate locked at?Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter

Hi, I am using Build 476, can you please give me a direct link in how to download Build 479, I cannot find the throttling option as I looked on the option menu of ASV6 on the right hand side of it, for cloud settings I leave all the distance such as the cloud draw settings to full however I click on the simple cloud options in fs9, my specs are AMD ATHLON 64, PROCESSOR 3400+, 1GB DDR, 200GB HARD DRIVE, NVIDIA GEFORCE, FX 5500, 256MB VIDEO MEMORY, framerate locked at 23 in fs9 and resolution cloud settings are at 512*512, thanks.Rayek.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/for...argo_hauler.gif http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritz...tishAirways.jpg http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritzer82/untitled.jpg

Hi, can you please help me out I am trying to update my sound card for Hewlett Packard and my sound card is I think Realtek AC97 audio, does anybody know where exactly I can go in order to download this from, if so can you please kindly provide me with a link so I can determine whether it is ASV6 or my sound card that is causing the stuttering problems of fs9, thanks.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/for...argo_hauler.gif http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritz...tishAirways.jpg http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritzer82/untitled.jpg

Hi,www.hp.com and follow the buttons to download drivers for your particular model #.Did you confirm you upgraded to B479 and have the normal default UNCHECKED state for the 2 throttling options?Best,

Yes I have successfully downloaded B479 and it has rectified the problem, a quick question do you need to pay in order to upgrade the drivers from HP because I am not sure where exactly to go and find the link in HP for the upgrade as I typed in the search engine my model number, t770.uk, thanks.Rayek.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/for...argo_hauler.gif http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritz...tishAirways.jpg http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ritzer82/untitled.jpg

Hi,Try with the Disable throttling options unchecked.Anywhere from 25-30, but usually no higher.Edit: Please post your ASv6.ini file. I would like to take a look over the next few days.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter

Hi,There are 2 throttling options. Are both un-checked?In your ASv6 folder is the ASv6.ini file. It's the file that has the little gear on it. Or you may use the Find option and search for it.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development TeamActive Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter
