hurrah! see you in the skies!

Glad it worked for you Farber, will have a go later on ATAG. Hope it does the trick for me too!

If SSAO works on ATAG then it poses the question why isn't it needed on the Kampverband server No1?

I can only think that either it's an Objects issue or you need SSAO checked if a server has 'clouds' enabled.

I had the same CTD on Kampverband No 2 server and this also has clouds enabled too....:confused:

Flew for over an hour on ATAG :-P:-P:-P:-P

Calculating the total frames by deviding them by the average then by 60 for minutes: thats 72 mins...

Is that simply by turning SSAO on?

Yep, SSAO and Shadows enabled worked for me too on ATAG.

I noticed Clouds when I spawned but, as I flew away no clouds were rendered afterwards - perfectly clear all the way to France. On all previous attempts clouds were popping up and then CTD - happy bunny here!

Thanks everyone!

Three cheers for macro! :-P

My squad mate tried the same fix, however the AA had to be set to the same as his cards AA for the same results as me.

Passed it on to Black Six, maybe it will help.

Cool. What about some kind of way of making more people aware? I know I was about ready to kill someone :evil:

I enabled both SSAO and Shadows just in case it was problem with cloud shadows not being rendered - could test that easily but, with those settings, all clouds seemed to disappear after a short while.

If the server does not have Clouds enabled in the realism settings then you don't need SSAO or Shadows enabled.

Heh, very interesting thread... since the alpha/beta patch I've CTD within 10 minutes in virtually every flight on ATAG server 1 (CTD within 10 minutes 12 out of 14 flights)...

...I just enabled SSO, turned grass, roads and shadows on and no CTD! Enjoyed a lovely and smooth 30-40 minute flight. Bit late here to repeat, and I am going to have to repeat a number of times before I discount it as a fluke but here's hoping!
