Hi, 

I'm getting CTD's since the latest beta update, just when I close the sim.

 

I have had one of those CTD's as well.

My experience since I pushed SU15 yesterday are sim freezes whenever I approach Lisbon flying from a nearby aerodrome or even from a further away airport like Porto.... In the C172 default model and in the PMDG 737-700...

Program freezes, I can still access the context menus in the menu bar, but can't exit the flight, and then to quit MSFS only way is through the task manager, killing the process 😕

Oh I thought I am the only one. It was seconds after taking off with the TBM. I had to close the sim after I realized it wasn't just stutter. I ended up deleting cache.

Ah! you mean scenery cache or the shaders cache ?

And... after deleting, was the problem fixed?

Thx !

The Scenery (rolling) Cache. And also the the shaders cache via Disk Cleanup and the two caches in AppData. 

Frankly I am not sure what causing it so it was a pure assumption that caches had anything to do with it, but the CTD never occurred eversince.

One thing that I should say here is that there were stutters prior to the CTD. It didn't happen out of the blue. I strongly believe this is due to SU15 as many simmers reported similar issues.

When I brought up MSFS just now it said 13.8Gb. What on earth? And my updates are recent, not behind.

I have the same 13.8Gb, but I had gone back to the official version a couple of days ago because of the reversed thrust bug.

Another great update. Amazing FPS and no stutters. Also GPU temps are very low.

Still getting the connection error which disables photogrammatery. Happened in the last build too. What is asobo doing?
