Jon Flye Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Have not tried taking off the overclock of CPU that was suggested in the other thread, odd to see how an OC is related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Thanks, do you think it might be worth a try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Flye Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 forgot exactly all the settings to take it back to not overclocked so wont try that yet. Tried to install 4.0.39 on a 2nd PC and same issue. Overclock study happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Williamson Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 We've released Orbx Central 4.1.1 for everyone, can you try running Orbx Central again now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Flye Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 I solved my issue with Orbx Central not launching and having such a short log file.. Turns out I have a pfsense firewall that has a utiltity called pfBlockerNG. Many people download lists of sites to block. For whatever reason one of the main lists that is publicly available, it blocks two sites that ORBX Central calls upon watson.telemetry.microsoft.com sessions.bugsnag.com they are both blocked from a list called DNSBL_Pi_hole_list Once I use a public DNS server ORBX Central launches no problem. or if a person chooses they can whitelist them on the pfBlockerNG or related program I think these two sites were introduced in your latest version. Just wanted you to know in case others have what is known as a pihole for DNS. Thanks Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Williamson Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Thanks for that info! Bugsnag is how we monitor issues with Central. I've made a note of this issue and our team will investigate why it is blocking the app from launching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
