Solved Windows 11 Pro - exiting from a mission leads to crash.

@airtex2019 said in Windows 11 Pro - exiting from a mission leads to crash.:
What are all the add-ons and mods you have installed … eg. other theathers? any VR stuff? alt launcher? mrkline’s mod to speed up acmi encoding? etc
To me this looks like a double-free bug in BMS, at the point where the popup menu is dismissed … but I don’t know why nobody else is hitting this, or why it would be different on Win10 vs Win11.
Do you run in fullscreen-mode or borderless-window mode?
Hi, dearest Airtex.
So here I am with my poor answers.
Yes, I have installed a few thaters (Balkans, Aegean, Mideast128, Nevada, Korea Training and HeliPack).
Yes, I use that acmi enconding facility in those few case I need an Acmi (not too much often, actually).
No, I don’t use VR (too early, I’m waiting for 4.37 or whenever it will fully developed and embedded) nor alternative launcher - I am running Falcon via its stock one.
I set BMS in borderless mode, 1920x1080 res., without triple buffering or vertical sync selected from the graphic menu… I left all these to my nVidia settings facility matter, becasue I applied those suggestions you made in a specific thread some months ago - remember?Hope I helped you a few, sorry but I really can’t do more on my little own.
Thanks a huge lot to you too and with best regards.

I’ve been following this since I’ve been using windows 11 pro. 10850k and a 3080.
With the amount of tinkering and editing I do to the database and acdata editing I do. I’ve YET to get a CTD. Knock on wood. Im not saying it’s your hardware but something’s acting up

Just to be clear – I am asking, did you install and enable this mod?

Yeah it’s an interesting little mystery. Double-free seems like an actual code-bug in BMS but I have no explanation for why nobody else is hitting it … or why it would maybe be different on Win10 vs Win11.
Could be timing related…
@Jackal can you try enabling vertical-sync (within the game) and see if that makes any difference.
-
@airtex2019
No, dear mate.
I didn’t.
I’m currently using that other one I told you before, and at those limited conditions I referred only - starting it before launching BMS and keeping it running in background, but that only in those not frequent cases I need to get an ACMI of that flight/mission I’m specifically interested.And I also enabled, for testing, the vertical sync option - try to guess how it ended?
Hope this helped in anything, maybe.
With best regards.

I really don’t know! I take that it did not help…

@airtex2019
Don’t worry, bro.
There must be a reason for what’s happening, and it will have to be found out. It’s only a matter of time and a little of luck, of course.Thanks a lot for your time and your efforts, most of all!
With best regards.

Hello, Jackal, how are you?
You could have waited a while before upgrading to Windows 11 my friend!
Stay safe and stay tuned!

Jackal, any chance you modified the menu file (art\ckptart\menu.dat)? Are you using any custom cockpit?
-
@Jackal go to BMS bin folder and BMS exe, right click on it, go to compatibility and disable full screen optimizations and see if that works
-
Thanks a lot, dear friends, for all your kind answers and suggestions.
A cumulative reply is needed, I guess.
@Seifer: thanks a lot, but no, I didn’t. Neither installed any custom cockpit this time - I did when in Windows 10, instead, it was that awesone one by @dema.
And I have to point out, at this point, that I have been able to do any kind of crazy things, at those times. What the hell happened, this time? All seemed to work fine just after the last install. Bah.
@WurminatorZA: thanks a lot to you too, but no, mate. And why should I have done that? I never flagged that voice after any of my all BMS past installations, by the way, because I never felt the need to.
@malpaso: hi there, dearest bro. Long time no… read.
Try to guess what I am currently thinking about 11 and my smart choice of installing it… but please think well after answering, it’s a hard matter to be conceived carefully before,Thanks a lot for your interest, and with best regards.

I believe the only windows really working fine, it was Windows XP
-
@Jackal but did you try it?
-
@wurminatorza
Sure, of course. But without any luck. Thanks again for your interest.To all.
Guess that something went corrupted in that specific part of instructions in my installation, because all the remaining options and commands seemed working fine.So, after the last Windows cumulative update occurred yesterday, I decided to attempt the last try.
I have wiped out all the stuff and reinstalled Falcon and my favourite theaters from scratch.
If all will work fine, so nice then and we will be happy for that.
But if not, I won’t take care of it anymore, and hell to that.I will keep you informed further.
With best regards.

Good evening, Gentlemen.
I succeeded with acting my plan, as seems.
Was Windows in need to be fixed? Or my Falcon installation (less probable, though, given that I installed it three times from scratch)? Who knows.
It works. In full. We all (I, me and myself) are so happy.
@Seifer, @airtex2019, @WurminatorZA, @hoover, @malpaso, @Icer (hope I forgot to quote none, here, or I will be in deep trouble): thanks a huge lot for your kind assistance.
One more experience done, with a happy ending well deserved, I think.
With best regards to all.
