Out of memory error in FS9

Featured Replies

Received this error message on a flight yesterday and found it very strange since I have 50+ GB available free disk space and about 800 MB available RAM at the time of the error message.After I received the error message I didn't click OK but instead tried to click in the FS9 window in the background and FS9 was still running and I was able to land but with very strange graphics - lots of detail missing in the VC and no exterior painting on my a/c and also the scenery at my destination airport was totally screwed up.Anyone with an idea what might cause this kind of error?http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/168274.jpg

Can you give more details? Plane you were flying, add-ons installed etc...-Paul

A little research with a search engine can be a wonderful thing. Much has already been written on this problem.

Paul - I'm using a number of add-ons but since I never seen this error message before I have trouble beliving the add-ons would be the culprit but who knows...These are the add-ons I use:Level-D 767Active CameraActive SkyFSGenesis MeshFSNavigatorFSPassengers 2004Ground Environment Pro IIMyWorld 2005 LandclassPMDG B1900DPMDG 737NGPMDG 747 - Queen of the SkyUltimate TerrainUltimate TrafficBob - Thanks for pointing out that thread, was lots of reading so will have a look in more detail when I find the time for it.

bad landclass file, corrupt AI aircraft textures, running the Ultimate Terrain series with enhanced coastlines (for UT USA downloading the patch on their forum which fixes that issue) causes it. You arent running out of memory, its just a bug with the game.

OK, thanks for your tips on what might have caused this. Considering how difficult it is to troubleshoot these kind of errors in FS I think I will just let it pass and hope it won't come back again ;-)
