Peter K Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 I installed mytraffic x 5.4a and it was working I then installed my traffic live It is sort of working I start at an airport and it then it crashes my fsx It will also crash my computer if I change locations to a new airport I only say that it is crashing the computer because this behaviour started right after i intalled "live" Help please fsx sp2 and w7 x64 . mytraffic 5.4a with live Any thoughts?

Burkhard Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hard guess.. If you delete the anfs.bgl file, does it worl properly again? Crashes of the computer itself are in 99% of all cases bad hardware, disk faults or similar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter K Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 What i did was delete the mytraffic x 5.4a program I ran fsx and it was then working well. It seemed to be operating normally, meaning that I could duplicate what i had done and the system did not crash I then reinstalled mytraffic x 5.4a without enabling "live" and it sees to work without crashes I suppose I can set a restore point, then download the "live" traffic file and see how things work out. If it is then crashing my system I can go back to the "non-live " version Is there anything special I need to do to use the "live data" On another note my system is completely bogged down at 30% traffic with mytraffic live FR is dropping to single digits at complex airports such as kord These drops started once i installed mytraffic 5.4 a I am trying to work though the issues so see if i can improve it I have a pretty good machine 2700k w7x64 fsx sp2 and tweaked to kosta settings. I know that there are a thousand reasons i might get bogged down with the fr's but given the exact same settings with MYTX5.4a and without I see drops of at least 20 frames per sec at complex airports. Thank you Peter pkofman@rogers.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkhard Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 It may be the amout of traffic around you. Most CPU power goes into tracking the aircraft, not their display. And since this tracing runs on the same core as the scenery and the grafics, your system is not much faster than those 8 years ago. FSX is not able to handle the traffic density real life has at Kord or New York, and will not be until we have 20 Ghz CPus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter K Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 very interesting. well 20 ghz is still a long way off and fsx is already pretty old.!! so what do you think about the crashes and what would you suggest other than turning the sliders down peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkhard Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Did you install the latest version plus the actual patches? I only can verify MyTraffic 5.4b with the Patches as they are on the server today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter K Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 NO I am using 5.4 a primarily because i read somewhere on the site that "live" only worked with 5.4a . I may have read that on the simmarket site when i bought the live subscription. Please let me know how and if it is ok to upgrade to 5.4 b Where do i find those upgrade files and will it work with the live traffic files Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkhard Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Yes, 5.4b works together with live as well as 5.4 did. The update to 5.4b is descibed under http://forum.simflight.com/topic/73287-final-update-to-mytraffic-54b/ and the latest patches are available in th elast post of this topic.
