plus a load of numbers and lettersafther this. i got one of these after each crash.

i looked up the meaning of this and from what i understood this error is when the code tries to use a setting that is set to 0 or "null" and cant handle it. so i decided to turn all of the video options in graphics settings on. just flew my first sortie that lasted over 20 mins. and second that was half hour would have lasted longer but 109 got me over france.

the settings i had to change were:

SSAO to ON
V Sync to ON
Grass to ON
shadows to ON

I have left anti aliasing off but all other settings are on (at least on low for each, some medium, but the above were the only ones i changed as they were off entirely)

my fps took a bit of a hit but its playable.

i think there is a problem with not having one of the above not turned on, at least for me. i will test each one tomorrow to see which was causing the problem for me.

Brilliant finding macro! Setting VSync to ON eliminated stutter for me (0.5-1 s freezes), and I didn't have CTDs for an hour or more. All the other options were on already, except for SSAO which I disabled for the test.




Cheers!
