V5 Constant CTD after loading

[Samany69 41]

Just got the v5 ready to run. Everything works on v4. V5 keep Crashing after loading screen is finished at 100%. Also something strange is happening every start of the app makes the sim generate scenery things ( I can't recall the name sorry ). Everything is out of the box.

 

Regards

I've read a dozen other comments on various websites detailing the identical problem with v5 that you're suffering: CTD after loading. So you're not alone.

Same problem with 3 installs and then reinstall and activate.  Something odd

By chance do you have an AMD graphics card? Curious because I am having problems. I5-9600k, Radeon RX 5700XT on the most recent WHQL driver. V4.5 runs great. However with the same settings in v5 I get a CTD whenever I switch to a cockpit view. Runs fine as long as I stay in the cockpit initially, but if I change seats, or switch to an external view and then back to the cockpit I get a CTD with a graphics card hang. I have tried multiple aircraft and airports and I've put all the sliders left, right and default. Makes no difference. Graphics card is not overclocked and I turned off my CPU overclock to test and no change.

On a positive note, LVFR KMIA looks great (from the cockpit) and performance is much better than in v4.5 even with the Aerosoft A330.

I should note that this problem is independent of both the LVFR scenery and the A330 as the problem existed before I installed KMIA or mapped my A330 add on (which does have some glitches).

Have you made any changes to the Prepar3d.exe profile in either nVidia Control Panel or with another utility like nVidia Inspector?

I had a good fly around last night with V5, but this morning, I loaded up the default airport with the default aircraft and I had some issues with CTD due to VRAM.

It showed as 4.9/5.0mb in the frame rate counter, then it crashed. It was dusk/morning so this might have been a bit too much for my card. It is only a GTX1060 which is 6gb and my settings were pretty high so I will have to play with these a little now. I get a new 1080ti at the end of this week so I really cannot wait for this to come now.

Turned down every single setting to the least, turned everything off, used DDU and reinstall many different versions of Nvidia driver version. Still not working. After loading to 100% , it just crashes.

I had the same problem. I deleted the shader cache and the Prepar3D.cfg, that fixed it.

Shader cache is here: C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\Shaders

Config file is here: C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5

Best regards

Mine also did that at the beginning. Then I discovered it was because of my RTSS profile, to get the overlay going. Removed that and it loaded up fine. (EDIT: Simply removed the P3D profile within RTSS, to clarify. Not RTSS itself.)
