worst developer ever
I'm usually not the type who cries out for help regarding FSX and other stuff, but this issue is driving me insane.
I just wanted to take a short flight this evening, but noticed that FSX didn't have my add-on scenery loaded, so I added it into the scenery library.
The next time I wanted to fire up FSX I got this:
The error message reads "Your computer has run out of...blah" - the classical FSX OOM.
The odd thing is FSX's Ram usage. This is normally way too little for this kind of error to happen.
Things I did so far:
- check for duplicate AFX files
- boot.ini: /3GB switch
- boot.ini: /userva=2560
Nothing worked.
So I'm a bit lost here. What the heck can I still try? Did anyone else get this?
Relevant information: FSX SP2, 4GB Ram, 4GB fixed page file, Windows XP Pro x64 SP2 (fresh installation)
A FSX reinstallation is not an option at all. Never!
In the past few weeks I've had nothing but trouble with OS'es (all 64bit). I haven't done anything I hadn't done when I still had XP32 and yet, I got random BSODs on perfectly healthy hardware (verified) and other issues.
- Edit:
Seems to be related to my AI traffic's flight plans folder (treated like an AFX/scenery folder). How come?
FSX never complained about those 485 traffic files before!
- Edit²:
The plot thickens. I could isolate a faulty traffic file. However, recompilation doesn't work. Hm².
