So I recently have seen this problem. I will load a scnario and it crashes to the desktop but no message.

Here is the log:

It sometimes loads and and sometimes CTD. It only seems to do it on my vessels that I am working on.

It is odd I am not getting a message that I crashed?

It sometimes loads and and sometimes CTD. It only seems to do it on my vessels that I am working on.
In that case I would hazard that
(a) there is a bug in your vessel code, or
(b) there is a bug in the Orbiter code that is exposed by your vessel's interaction with the API
Either way, debugging your code should help narrowing down the problem.

Thanks. Well I did the process of elimination method. Comment stuff til it worked and then look at that code. I think I found I had referenced a thruster but didn't make it. on the Europa Clipper. But I need to check to see if it did the same on the Shuttle

So This is weird. I am launching the Europa Clipper using SLS. Does good. I then get ready for the journey. Then do a quick save. but when I load the quicksave it CTD no mention and nothing in the log.

I am going to reload Orbiter and MS2015 and SLS

One log entry that may help is this:000436.464: >>> ERROR: DDraw error DDERR_SURFACELOST

Not sure if running full screen versus a window is an issue?

So the vessel runs OK if loaded on a default "launch" configuration. But it crashes when loaded on an "cruise" configuration?

My guess is that your status logic might be flawed or not saved correctly.
If you remove all status indications from the scenery, does it work?

I'm talking about stuff like this:
Magnet 0 0.0000
PANEL1 1 0.0000
SOLP 0 0.0000 1 0.5
PANELEXT 0 0.0000
PANELEND 1 0.0000
