    When I open beamng drive and a load a map, the map loads up half way and then freezes on the loading screen. It then crashes and says exceeds virtual memory limit. I have no mods installed and I have 21gb free on my ssd which is what beamng drive is on. I also have a 64 bit operating system. Please Help, Thanks.

    What is your graphics card (please specify the amount of vram e.g GTX 960 2gb) this is not a RAM problem, but a VRAM problem

    2gb is more than sufficient, this is not a hardware issue

    Which map are you trying to load? Could be a problem with the map.

    Could you try posting a link of your task manager with the game open. You could have something open in the background that is messing with your RAM usage.

    The problem is getting out of my hands now, i am not a huge computer expert and haven't had the problem you have had very often so i don't really know all the fixes beside the basic ones. @Nadeox1 Maybe you could this guy out?

    Oh wow! I had the same problem for 2 1/2 YEARS! I was so sad that I couldn't play maps! what I did was I typed in the start box: virtual memory and I found "how to change the size of virtual memory" and I followed the directions from that tab and I got my game back!!!!!!! I WAS SO HAPPY AND I RAN AROUND SHRIEKING! So you should try this. yes, no one here was able to solve it either. If you have more questions, or if this does not work, I may be able to help more! I have tried to start a conversation with you too.

    The start menu only made a search on the web.
    Can you leave a link to the page that contains those instructions please?

    I have no clue to the correct way of using a forum :confused: :rolleyes: I even asked a search engine what OT: means on the BeamNG forum to which I got no answer other then Urban Dictionary claims "Off Topic" which makes sense.
    I used this weblink to help me: http://mywindowshub.com/change-virtual-memory-size-windows-8-1/ ;)
    I hope this info helps. o_O Same should apply to Windows 10 :eek:
