    Hello,

    Saw a few other people having problems, so add me to the list.

    Just installed ATS WCML v3 and now getting constant memory errors no matter what settings (high/low) Won’t load any scenario or even be able to create one.

    Any ideas please?

    The best idea that I have would be to email ATS support and they should have a solution for you.

    It's a very intense route so does cause a fair amount of resource hogging. I found a complete uninstall (ie delete the route folder) then clean download and install (AV off, admin rights) has allowed better installation and smoother play

    I posted on UKTS too, the included “Supplementary” scenery files are the problem.

    Deleted them and everything works now!

    BTW.. "out of memory" errors aren't necessarily out of memory errors. You get a "out of memory" error no matter what makes it crash for some reason.

    Yes, OOM is the new SBHH (something bad has happened).

    Oh, it does have other errors, but "out of memory" doesn't mean "you've run" out of memory.
    More likely there's a programming error and the program is trying to access protected or other memory, or even a memory address that doesn't exist, ie "What I'm trying to do with memory is outside of the accessible realm"

    It's the only error I've ever seen, even when I have over 12GB of RAM free.
    Correct.

    I've had access error and graphics buffer errors too, but much less frequently
