P3Dv4 freezes on approach

Featured Replies

Hello! The problem appeared several times, though irregularly. It is about P3D freeze during the approach, usually within close proximity of the airport (40 nm). The simulator hangs, the cursor turns, loads, and when I click on the screen I get the message that P3D has stopped working and all I can do is close it. There is no rule of thumb for the scenery - I came up with an approach to LSZH, EPWA (precisely over the EPMO), and today while approaching the FSIA. Strangely, the EDDF-OMDB flight in the B777 was a success. I suspected that this was happening while loading the scenery. Maybe, but in that case Dubai, which is also quite heavy scenery did not cause freeze. Another thought is the plane. Although this happened in both PMDG 737 and PMDG 777. I don't use any cloud textures or AS16 so far, I am collecting funds. The only thing that is installed are the ones I mentioned. I'm counting on the help, as switching to P3DV4 was exciting to me that eventually OOM type bugs and other bugs would go away in memory, and now it only causes nerves :D Greetings!

In the PMDG CDU menu, go to options, sounds, and select "pre load all sounds."

 

I don't know if this will help since you're so far out, but it's worth a shot.
