Problem starting a flight because the programme does not res

Postby Filuma » Thu May 20, 2021 8:16 am

Hey,
I have the problem that when I have made all the settings and then press "fly", a new window with loading screen opens and then a part of the cocpit is already visible but it does not stop loading. Then Windows says the programme is not responding
These are my PC specs:
Graphics card: NVIDIA Quadro K2200
Processor: Intel i7-6700 (3.40 GHz)
Ram: 16gb
I want to use FlightGear 2020.3 and have windows 10.
I hope somebody can help me, and sorry if my english isn't that good ;).

have you enabled "automatic scenery download"? it may be that the system is (still) downloading scenery for your ICAO...

the log file may offer some additional hints... find it here: https://wiki.flightgear.org/Commonly_used_debugging_tools#fgfs.log
you can post maybe the last 20 lines or so OR post the whole thing to a site like pastebin and provide a link to your public paste so we can access it...

Thank you for the answer,
I already solved it by updating my GPU.

do you mean updating your GPU drivers? not updating/replacing your physical GPU with a new one?
