SODE 1.71 or 1.8 will not be a problem but maybe older ones. The other aspect is still the version of the LPPT scenery. MK fixed something with SODE. So that's it. I wonder if he has 1.32 of LPPT or not.

My memory is a little vague but it involved jetways I think. I’m running 5.3HF2, not 5.4 in case that’s a factor.

What is the difference between 5.3HF2 and 5.4? Is it appreciable?

Never mind, I found some discussion here in another thread.

For me, yes. AIG Ai BGL airlines running in the sim (5.4) would cause the whole sim to freeze for as long as a minute at multiple locations around the globe. I conducted a lot of tests disabling various sceneries and it resulted in v5.4 being responsible.

Reverting back to v5.3HF2 solved it. Impossible to determine which Traffic BGLs were responsible so pointless raising the issue with LM who wouldn’t provide support anyway. It looks like there were major changes to flight plans which caused the problem despite it being a point update.

I am using 5.4 and it did help resolve the issue with parked aircraft floating a few feet above ground with FSDT KMEM.

Others have commented on that. It doesn’t bother me. I need stability and only v5.3hf2 gives it.
