[BUG FIXED] RTT Remote - Freezing
-
I had the same issue recently, first RTT just freeze after ~5 minutes, then whole game… No “useful” logs, and I’ve spend many days searching exactly that, tried EVERYTHING except a PC format.
Then a new nvidia update kicked in (v 460.89) and apparently all back to normal (or up to now).
I’ve rolled back to 457.30 without success, I’ll try 460.89.
-
I am pretty sure (don’t recall changing/installing anything else) that the issue appeared after installing the previous 1 or 2 nvidia updates-versions back then.

Meanwhile, there are a lot of RTT posts. but this one is the best. Give it a try:

Tried that, no luck unfortunately. Nvidia drivers 460.89 didn’t improve things either.

Exactly this post should solve the RTT freeze issue. Make sure to have all three lines in your cfg file (regardless what’s written in the Technical Manual).

Gents,
The investigation is narrowing down to F-16 blk 50 being the faulty one… I did a couple runs with F-16CM-blk32 and F-16CM-blk52 and no freeze…

Hi max, I’ll be attentive to me too, RTT freezes, I’ll try other blocks

I had this problem with both the stock HAF B52+ F-16’s, with and without CFTs.
One think I also just remembered during my tests, all the issues where on TE’s, 5 minutes after taking off from Kunsan. When I’ve tried in a dogfight mode some 50nm West of Kunsan over the sea, with same HAF model bird, I did not engaged my enemy and I was just flying around away from him, everything ok for ~15 minutes. Then headed East back to mainland, and after a while over terrain, nowhere close to Kunsan, freeze again…

It’s not only RTT, MFD extractor and also komurcu’s app freeze when this happens, so I’d suspect it’s a problem within BMS and not specifically with RTT.
All the best,

Well to conclude my tests after 3hours of digging…
It happens on all blocks and quite fast on training missions HARM and GP Bomb with F-16CM-50…
Switching to A/G seems to help the freeze to occur but I cannot prove it…It happens with all tools actually reading the RTT export from BMS. shared data doesn’t seem to be affected since when I use MFDE to read only instruments, no freeze appears…
So as long as you don’t run any MFD extraction tool (RTT Remote or MFDE with MFDs) you’re pretty much not having the issue.We’ll see what the BMS team can reproduce, I have sent what I could to help for the investigation…

Hi.
Its also happening to me. Like you, I export MFDs, DED and RWR via RTTRemote Client and some other displays via MFDE. MFDE does not freeze, nor the displays in the main screen, but exported MFDs, DED and RWR do freeze.
I tried adding "set g_bDoubleRTTResolution 1 " but it didnt help -
I just did another testing flight and neither RTT nor komurcu’s app froze for me during this flight (same TE as used above). I know this doesn’t exactly make debugging this issue easier, I’m just adding data points
All the best,
Uwe
EDIT: Using blk52s for what it’s worth

As a follow up to my earlier post.
I tested in both a new 4.35 TE and a new 4.35 Campaign and didn’t have any freeze ups using just MFDE (no RTT client running) with the three recommended lines from Zipgun (noted above) in my config file. Or, if you run just RTT extraction only (no MFDE) say for the MFD’s and DED then no freezing.
If you run RTT and MFDE at the same time you get the freezes, which is what I (up to now) usually did. RTT for the MFD’s and DED and MFDE for the other gauges. (This was to deal with export issues when flying the Mirage awhile ago IIRC.)
I’m going to put in a few more flights to confirm.
I was flying F-16CM-52

I have put the RTTClient64.exe file to run with administration rights and everything works like a champ.

To soon find out it is not the issue…

Placebo effect…
The real benchmark for which I constantly have locks-up is the HARM training mission… Stay there for 20 min straight without freeze and we’ll see.For me it is a Falcon BMS issue not an RTT Remote issue…

I can second MaxWaldorfs thought.
I have the same problem, best to find in the Harm training mission. When I restart BMS the ‘frozen’ RTT remote client will just reconnect and does its job, without the need of restart even.I have no special software running and just displaying left MFD.
Also I tried compatibility modes, etc, did not really helped.
Then I tried Razors lines wtihout success. Also tried to decrease updating interval by factor 10, no change.
Twice BMS froze completely 1s after HARM impact, using the RTT option on. Never happened however when I turnedit off in the BMS config file.also, we tried this in multiplayer, same mission. I was the server, and after 10mins I lost my display, my wingman however, also using rtt remote, had no issues.
-
I jumped into the HARM training mission and within 5 min the MFD’s locked up. I tried it with just MFDE running and with the RTT client and it locked up within the 5 minutes in both cases.
I then did a 40 min. mission in a 4.35 campaign and had no MFD freeze up.
Are the training missions still 4.34?

Same problem for me !
