Mid-Flight Freezing

Featured Replies

Hello everyone,

Everytime I fly a long range flight, after approximately 4 hours after takeoff, freezings start

They freeze for around 10 seconds on 5 second intervals and goes on forever until I eventually have to save the flight and restart the simulator. This is bad because I cant leave my aircraft for an intercontinental flight while I sleep and when it starts freezing, the flight becomes 10x slower....   The programs I use are, 

vPilot, smartCars, FSXWX (Freemium weather engine), FSX VAS Monitor

I only use REX Texture direct and addon airports in FSX, and fly 95% of the time in PMDG Aircrafts (737 and 777).

 

 

 

You have to investigate.  I believe this is caused by vPilot and/or FSXWX.  It is common.  No solutions other than to remove offending or incompatible fsx add-ons. 

Investigation begins on page 10, AVSIM CTD Guide (How to Fix Most CTD's/Freezes)(see link to CTD Guide in my signature).

Page 30 of the guide provides guidance for fixing Freezes During Flight.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Jim
