Default Argh my first CTD

Got a message in GWX 3.0 about dunkerque and headed that way. Using freecam I flew 30 miles to see the fattest fleet ever! about 20 miles out CTD!

First shock Then Anger Then despair

Could it be travelling so far in free cam to see such a big event on top of your existing game mod spec - too much for your RAM?
You could try sailing in to see if it handles the data better.

I've read somewhere on these forums that CTD's around Dunkirk during the evacuation are quite common, maybe a bug and not anything to do with your computer.

Kinda like if you scroll your map too far over the Soviet Union-boom-CTD.(There might be some irony there. )

It must be. I reloaded the game. Patched it to GWX 3.0 and did not reinstall Any non GWX mods. I could get to the harbor But once I try to sneak in, CTD

Tried again and made it into harbor and lined up a troop ship and CTD!

I have never had a CTD in this game until Dunkerque. Verdamnt!

But with so many Juicy targets I cant let go!

Your persistence is commendable.
We may have to rewrite the history books!
Congratulations.
