September 22, 20178 yr Hi all, I've had v4 for a month now and its worked great until yesterday. While flying over London area (actually its most of Southern England) at FL410 the sim would freeze every 20 secs for a period of 20 secs. I see the loading circle and then it comes back. Once I hit the channel its fine again. I've tried this in other built up areas such as New York and Amsterdam but its fine. I've tried moving all sliders down and reinstalling all addon scenery and resetting config as well as updating drivers. Nothing worked so far. Any ideas anyone? Thanks
September 22, 20178 yr Do you use UK2000 airport scenery? If so, there is an issue reported on their forums with the SODE safedock systems at Gatwick and Heathrow causing freezing similar to what you are reporting. Try turning off the safedocks for these airports and see if that helps. David Webster AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D | G.Skill 32GB DDR4 3600Mhz | EVGA RTX 3080 Ti @ 3440X1440 | Crucial 2TB M.2 | Win11
September 22, 20178 yr Author I've tried turning off SODE in the menu bar but it didn't work . How can I completely remove SODE from the sim? Thanks
September 22, 20178 yr Author UPDATE, I found SODE and got rid of it and it works fine now. Thank you very much!
September 22, 20178 yr Glad to hear it worked. David Webster AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D | G.Skill 32GB DDR4 3600Mhz | EVGA RTX 3080 Ti @ 3440X1440 | Crucial 2TB M.2 | Win11
September 23, 20178 yr It has become quite chilly. Time to put the heating on. Keep that P3D folder warm.
September 23, 20178 yr You don't turn SODE off completely, you need to run the options configurator for your London UK2000 airports and untick the SODE safe docks option. Thomas Derbyshire

I use the GSX safedock feature, gives me much more control over parking. It's a shame that unticking the SODE feature doesn't remove them. Maybe I'll have a look in the SODE files to a way to remove those and keep the jetways. Dan Downs KCRP
February 9, 20188 yr Thank you for the advice about SODE. I have spent the last six weeks tearing my hair out trying to get to the bottom of why P3DV4 kept hanging when I was flying over London. Indeed it took me ages to work out that the problem ONLY occurred over London! Took out SODE and everything is working great now....
