miniarma Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Im having issues with Sky Maxx Pro V2. It keeps causing X-Plane 10 to crash and give me an Open GL error code 9 and then closes down X-Plane. I have the latest drivers for my GTX 660 so not sure why I am getting this error. It was happening a lot with NOAA plugin along with SkyMaxx Pro V2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundog Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Hm, I can't seem to find any information on what "error code 9" means. But if I Google it, here's what comes up: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/support/unmodified-minecraft-client/2141898-nvidia-opengl-error-code-9 It's a thread of people having the same problem in Minecraft, who coincidentally are using GTX 650 and GTX 660 cards. I don't have this card, so all I can do is guess at things to try: - Try rolling back to an earlier driver version; maybe it's a bug NVidia recently introduced in their drivers that only affects your family of cards. It looks like reports there started with driver 337.88 so try going back further than that to see if it makes a difference. - Maybe you're running out of video memory; try deleting the settings.dat file in X-Plane's resources/plugins/silverlining folder and restarting, and if that doesn't help, try turning off cloud shadows in the SkyMaxx Pro configuration screen. - Maybe your card is overheating. Does it only happen after flying for a few minutes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppel Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Hi, i have the same Problem as miniarma. The error sometimes comes after 3 hours, sometimes after 15 minutes, I already tryed your solutions but nothing worked. My System: i7 4770-k8gb Ramgtx 970 4gb ramssd Drivers are the latest 344.75 Nvidia. Any other solutions so far ? Are there other users that have the same Problems?

JohnMAXX Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Throw us a log.txt after the crash happens and there is a known issue with XFMC and X-Plane right now are you using XFMC by any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundog Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Yeah, we really need to see a log.txt following this. Just because X-Plane crashes while SkyMaxx Pro is installed doesn't mean it's something SkyMaxx Pro did. The log might tell us more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppel Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 next time it happens iam going to send you the log. And there is no XFMC installed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppel Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 So here is my log.txt. It seems like its always happening when the weather is loading in flight.Log.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundog Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Further research suggests that this OpenGL error comes from your NVidia drivers once GPU memory is exhausted. I see you have quite a bit of custom scenery and other add-ons installed, and I suspect Skymaxx Pro's clouds just pushes your system over the edge in some situations. Fundamentally you need to reduce your VRAM usage. You can do this by removing custom scenery, turning of HDR and/or anti-aliasing, running at a lower resolution, or turning down the cloud draw distance and cloud detail settings in the Skymaxx Pro configuration screen.
