X-Plane 12/ Zibo 737-800 v 3.8/ FMC freezes

[Jean Paul Reuland 14]

Good evening. Since prior versions of Zibo, at a certain moment when I am loading data into the FMC suddenly it freezes and is totally dead. No keys are active anymore. Am I the only one? Is there a solution? Is it related to X-Plane 12 or Zibo?

Thank you for your patience.

Good afternoon +7

Here is the solution! I have first followed some tutorials where it clearly shows the entire folder 700-800 just next to Laminar folder in the aircraft main folder. That is wrong! I don't know how those people can fly but after hours struggling I just saw a brilliant video on YouTube made by Atif Ahmad and clearly indicates to drop the 700-800 Zibo folder within the Laminar folder within the aircraft main folder. And now it works! 🙂 Thank you Atif!

I will try that. Currently, when loading a flight with the Zibo, not only XP freezes but the whole computer. Only a hard reset helps. Not funny.

Strange indeed ?

My Zibo 737-800X folder is directly under "Aircraft", when XP12 loads it correctly depicts the normal and 4k versions 800X and I load the Zibo and use it (latest update from Google drive is 3.8) without any problems ?

That's what I do normally as well.

Then it goes to NUL NUL NUL

Hi,

That is strange. I have zibo on four computers under "X-Plane12\aircraft\737NGFlightdeck\B737-800X" and have no issues at all.

same here. no other addon has ever managed to lock up the whole pc. only solution for me, as was mentioned elsewhere: first load the C172, then switch to Zibo mod. whatever magic behind this, but it worked for me. glad we don't have to fly to Paris and HonKong first before we can takeoff from Chicago.😀

Good evening. I have started this topic and apparently it turned out with rather strange statements!🤣 As i was explaining I was having constant freezing problem at the moment loading the fmc. I also viewed a video on YouTube indicating how to install the Zibo plane. I know it was weird since the developers indicated to unzip the file into the Aircraft folder and not into the Laminar one! But it solved my problem! Since then i flew every day without any freezing anymore. Today I decided to cut the zibo folder and place it into the aircraft folder. I prepared a flight as usual and surprise it all went perfectly well! I made a second flight without any freezing!!! I use the very last update of x-plane 12 as well as the last updated version of zibo as per today. I thought it would be honest from my side to share this news! Thank you again all of you who helped me to resolve my problem.
