FS9 crash

Featured Replies

Hi,installed Active Sky 6.5 on weekend via wide fsAfter starting FS9 weather update is ok but after a whileFS9 crashs. I am not sure if it happen when Active Sky want to updatethe weather.Hope I can get some advise.Thomas

Hi Thomas,Sorry for the problem. Try setting Render to Texture the opposite you have it now and see if FS still crashes. Are there any error messages when this happens?Please let us know,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Hi Jim,thanks for very quick response.I can not change the Render settings before Thursday this week.But there is no error message comming up.When I re-start FS9 there is no weather update from Active Sky.In the settings of Active Sky I enabled VATSIM as well. Does it mean I have to be connected to VATSIM when I start FS9, which I didn't.My understanding was that by enabling VATSIM there is just additional weather information. Am I right ?RegardsThomas

Hi,After a FS crash it is best to re start AS then FS.No, but you should only use the VATSIM option when you are going to fly with VATSIM.No, it just means that your FS weather will match up with the controllers weather on VATSIM.Will wait for more information from you,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Hi Jim,comming back to your previous mail.Where should I change from Texture to Render ?RegardsThomas

Hi,In FS04 on the Hardware Screen. So it is Alt/O/E/D then on the Hardware Tab.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Hi Jim,I changed the settings in FS9.No success.When I run FS9 without ACS6 no problem.Problem seems to come up when ACS6 try to update the weather after 10 min.I use FSINN for VATSIM and I disabled weather update, but also without success. I also disabled weather updates in FSUIPC as recommended.Before I installed ACS6 on a WideFS PC, I made installation on the FS9 PC. But I de-installed, before changing to the WideFS installation. Is it possible that still some files left from the oldinstallation and cause the problem ?If yes how can I find them ?RegardsThomas

Hi,Let's eliminate one program at a time!What happens if just FS and AS are run?Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Dear Jim,I followed your advise. It seems that FSINN cause the trouble.Not sure why, but closing this application I had no Problem with FS9.I'll continue testing.RegardsThomas

Dear Jim,tested last night intensively.I can not find a way to use FSINN or Squawk Box3 together with AS.I have AS, FSINN, SB3 installed on the WideClient.After a while the FS9 crash. That happen when AS is updating the weather. If I run FSINN or SB3 without AS no problem. Also no problem when I run AS without FSINN or SB3.So, to me it is clear that the both software does not work together.But I can not find a solution.In SB3 and FSINN I disabled weather update from VATSIM.Also I did not run SB3 and FSINN same time of course !Does anybody have the same problem ?RegardsThomas

Hi,Are there any error messages?What version of FSUIPC are you using?Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Hi Jim,no error message comes up.I use FSUIPC 3.71 and wideFS 6.71Thomas

Hi,Try with v 3.72 from Pete. It may be on the FSUIPC site, or if not at his forum.See if that makes a difference.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://www.fseconomy.com/

Hi Jim,thanks for this tip.Problem seems to be solved. After 3 flights no crash.CheersThomas
