Does Decartes Class Vessel Crash to Desktop for anyone else?

[othoudt]

I have added the Decartes Class Interplanetary Vessels to Orbiter 2006 and to the 2009 beta and in both versions they CTD in exactly 100 seconds. Greg Burch seems to have done some brilliant work here but 100 seconds is not enough...for me at least. I have done clean installs of both Orbiter Versions with just minimum add-ons (Orbiter Sound 3.5) and almost everytime it crashes in 100 sec. Anyone else? Any suggestions? Thankx.

AMD 3200, 2G Corsair ram, ATI 2400 AGP 128MB video card, Western Digital 80 G hard drive.

What do you do in orbiter for the first 99 seconds? Is there anything being jettisoned?
I suspect that this is a vessel or MFD not handling the auto-deletion of a vessel.

100 seconds is wierd. iv noticed crashing when switching cockpit modes.

100 seconds is wierd

No it is not. It's a symptom of the issue. Understand that and the causes of it and you are half way there.

i meant that it is odd that it always hapens at 100 seconds instead of when you attempt a specific action

See this thread. This is a known problem...going back to the old M6 forum.
