Ground Mapping Radar Crash

[LightningIII 0]

Recently I've had CTDs with the ground mapping radar on three different planes flying over two different maps running on two different PC's. In both cases, the CTD occurred when I increased the radar range. The terrains involved were Stary's Germany and Korea. Known bug or something else?

Sounds like a resource issue.  What graphics card are you running?

I've had this happen many times, mainly in terrains with lots of detail, 5 miles is usually OK but anything above can cause a lockup & ctd, error log usually says the terrainengine .DLL is the faulting module.

Never been able to isolate the cause.

AMD X6 at 3.2 GHz, Radeon 6950 2gb, 16gb ram win7 64bit etc,etc.....

I see - that explains why I was experiencing the crash only at very long distances on my gaming PC but the integrated graphics my laptop could only handle up to about 40nm... thanks.
