Radar Box Keeps Freezing

[CZUL]

For the last 3 weeks I've been having problems keeping my RB application running a full day without it freezing. I have changed nothing on my PC, I use it for basic applications and remote administration for my work. I'v reinstalled RB 1.5 but I'm still having the same problem. It seems to occur when ever I change zoom settings or other manipulations of the screen. The application is normally slow to respond to changes, that I have gotten used to, but then I'll have instances where I make a change and the software locks up. Resources are not overly taxed, memory usage and CPU usage hardly budge.

When will 1.6 be released?  I'm anxious to see if these issues are cleared up with that version. I'm even willing to become  a test case for 1.6 if at all possible.

CZUL,

Are you using RadarBox with an Internet connection, or is it stand-alone?

[CZUL]

Network is always off.

Network is always off.

That wasn't my question.  Are you running RB with the PC connected to the Internet?

Deselecting "Get Flights from RadarBox Network" only stops Network aircraft showing on your display.  RB is still autopopulating your aircraft details from the internet and downloading aircraft photos etc.

If you are not connected to the Internet with your RB PC, have you deselected "Share Flight Data" in preferences?

Hi CZUL,

The beta of 1.6 is in testing at the moment and as soon as some other items are rectified we may send you a test version to confirm its ok on your side.

My first installation back in March had the Network function unchecked. I did this a week after installing it. This was the version that began to freeze up on me. I reinstalled yesterday but forgot to disable that function. So it was still crashing even with the SHARING in the off position.

Thanks

Has anybody received the beta from AirNav? Tried installing but PC went haywire. Support does'nt have the time to go through it with me, so wonder if anybody could go through the install instructions step-by-step. M.T.I.A.

Brisbane (Chris) - is no longer a beta tester.

We sent him a beta however he did not install correctly as supplied. This is a early beta and we needed users who were PC confident to install and give us feedback.

As suggested use the normal version.

V1.6 beta is currently being tested by 6 users with great results. In some computers it is running non-stop for 15 days. It is just a .exe replacement (very simple to do).

Anyway we are so close to the release date that there is no point in having more beta-testers at this stage.
