FSX not enough memory?

Postby tcco94 » Sat Jan 29, 2011 2:20 am

Well I finally got my system to run good graphics. After showing my specs on here and comparing my computer to a friends (where his runs FSX great) and my computer is exceptionally better I still have a problem.

Ive mostly flown KOAK-KLAX routes. Ive flown with the default 737 awhile, ive expierenced so many problems with FSX that I rarely have time for fun with it anymore. I had to update the new problem as for it crashing in Windows 7...

But now I have a new problem. Its a weird one but very very VERY frustrating. I bought my level-d 767 today. Decided to do one of my popular FS9 routes--KOAK-KLAX which is a fast route. Ive mostly only flown this route. So the whole flight goes fine and its running great but when im coming in for my approach on 25R in LAX which would not be going over the water I get an error message.

FSX ran out of avaliable memory, please restart FSX and lower the settings...

I used that one guys fsx.cfg update to make my computer run better, but my specs are great so I dont know why it would say this. I even checked the available memory and I had 1.64 gb of memory left. This is the second time its done this and not only that when you start your approach in to land the games graphics go from great to HORRIBLE then the cockpit freezes and such...

The ironic part is that when I landed at LAX yesterday on runway 6L or something coming in from the water, it was GREAT no lag or nothing.

Ive turned the settings down a bit but like ive said in my other post last week, I have a great gaming computer. No its not $2000 but I dont need one of those computers either. I dont understand why my computer cant run this game good and all other games GREAT. The worst part is knowing people out there and looking at there specs and mine kills theirs but yet runs this game horribly.

I really hope you wont say I need more RAM...I have 4GB right now, running Windows 7 64bit

If you have your commercial and GA traffic, airport vehicles traffic, car/ships/boat traffic set high then turn them down.

As a test set commericial and GA to 20% and turn everything else off.

I have commerical and GA set to 20% (but I also use MyTraffic 5.3a Pro), airport vehicles set to minimum and all the other stuff is completely off.

Hello dear tcco94,

That's a French guy talking to you. i am sorry not to be able to help you with your trouble with FsX, but I am amazed that you spend your relaxing time flying  the same route constantly when you could explore the entire Earth !
I kindly suggest you to randomly choose an airport anywhere (there are plenty of wonderfull landscape in the USA and Europe)  and just fly, this will open your mind much more than flying from XXX to YYY all along the day.

With my Best regards,

Jeff .
