gtn xplane crashes when in settings (resolved)

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, could you please help me with xpl crashes, all up to date . My sim always crashes when I try to open GTN settings... I see some locked device symbols for a few seconds and then it falls.

 

Thank you Honza

Hi Honza,
While you are waiting for Reality XP to get back to you I recommend you review the RXP GTN User Manual to learn the location of log files that may be written when these events happen.  Providing the content of those text log files will likely allow RXP to assist you more quickly.  The User Manual can be found in your Windows Start menu under R and RealityXP.  When you copy and paste contents of the files you find please use the "Spoiler" feature of this messaging.  Just click the eyeball icon in the message toolbar above.  It is just to the right of the Font drop box.  It will provide a window that is easily opened and closed.  It keeps this message topic from getting too "tall" so to speak, but still easily provides the content.

Oh thank you Frank...  did I get your point? I have inserted my ini content (from KingAir350 folder) above...

Well those are you configuration files, but what I suggested was finding your event logs.  Those are totally different from configuration files.  The log files may capture and say what is triggering the issue when it occurs.

Hi,

Thank you for providing the log file, this is helping (not because it shows something, but also because it doesn't show something!).

Nevertheless:

  • "your sim always crashes". What simulator is this? Version number?
  • What is also your GPU type and driver version?
  • What is your operating system build number?
  • As for "I see some locked device symbols", is there a chance you can post a screenshot or a more complete description of what you're referring to?

In case you're running XP11 on Win10 with an AMD GPU, can you cross check whether this is working fine if you run XP11 in OGL mode?

Are you also running any "post processing" tool like ReShade? If so, what about disabling it (because these post-process apps are known to fail simulators, XP11 and P3D, when opening a child window...)
