New CTD poll

Best not to until we have finished going through usernames. Multiple voters X multiple ip address's will take some time to go through. Its locked anyway.

I'm not sure I can vote here, the options are a bit too "drastic" for me. I do get lockups and CTDs, but strangely almost exclusively when starting the FMB and selecting a mission I had saved in a previous session or when loading the landscape. I never had a CTD while flying but then I rarely fly long missions - ATM I'm training the use of the Ju 87 (and especially the dive-bombing procedures).

The CTD's I get are exclusive to flying but then again I have not spent a lot of time in the FMB.

As far as i can guess, the CTDs and lockups mainly occur when flying online after about 40 mins, though some have reported them before that and some after more than a hour.

It seems to be a MEM leak error for most. Some people restart CLOD after each online sortie and that seems to stop the crash(that's why i added the bit about restarting CLOD)

Sorry CsThor i wasn't aware of the FMB crash.

Never had a crash in the FMB, I sometimes get one after 60-90 minutes flying if I haven't restarted CoD.
I only have 4 GB ram, but can fly much longer than squadmates with 8-16 Gb ram.

Well thats interesting, I have 16GB of ram and I crash pretty quick 15-20 mins, Obviously all ram as been tested. I will try taking some ram out and test it.

Could it be that CloD is very sloppy when it comes to RAM use? Especially when a lot of it is available?

Well i've got 16 gb and crash sometimes online when there are a lot of people on the server.
Upgrading from 4 to 16 gb made the game playable for me, before I coudnt even get any futher than get in to a plane and start engine befor a chrash.
Mind you I also did a complete re install of the sim.

Only very rarely have any sort of crash or lockup so voted accordingly, however I do find that when it does crash it resets most of my settings and I have to redo them again which is a pain.

If you mean ghosty ACE, hes a sqd mate of mine who couldn't remember his login details so had to re register to vote.
