Sorry, thought I had emailed ... just sent two log files:

I saw your Log. It should not exit after reading the sanned liveries. Will look into that.
From what I understand you are still able to run PSXT after that aborted scan session?

    SayAgain is referring to the landing gear culling issue that we all see with AIG, FSLTL, etc. liveries. At a certain distance (which is a rather short distance) the landing gear disappear from AI traf

    Winner winner chicken dinner, that latest exe worked! Looking good (except the culling of wheels): On another unrelated issue with PSXT and RealTraffic ... I followed Dr. Balthas

    I would suggest you will probably need to add an lfolder entry pointing to the location of stock MSFS AI, then try unchecking the automatic checkbox and run a livery scan. Throwing darts but that is w

I moved all the offending AI aircraft listed in the .txt files out of the community folder.

You really shouldn't do that without knowing the possible side effects. Did you update the layout.json afterwards? Until that is done, the layout.json still thinks those liveries are there.

Also most of the ones that show as errors in the IncompleFltsimSections.tx as icao_airline is missing, or it has invalid info will still get used by PSXT when called upon.

Found the culprit, it will be fixed in the next version.

Yes, just reload PSXT and it works fine.  Glad you found possible culprit, much appreciated!

The target % is the number of static parked aircraft you'd like to see

Hmmm … ok, since I use RealTraffic service then I should set this to 0%?  Or is this just filler AI?  So RealTraffic only shows aircraft with transponders active (which would make sense) and there could be several aircraft at an airport without transponders active?

If you want to have more liveries then you should pay attention to the errors and repair them by making changes to aircraft.cfg files, or by informing the creator of the package of the errors.

Ok, will do.

No, you should not set it to 0%.

Static aircraft are parked based on real-time data from the last 24 hours from RealTraffic, and additionally on data in the airport file about who parked where, with which model, on which day and time (see /airports/park_airport.xml). This has nothing to do with transponders.

Live aircraft can also park at stands, based on ADS-B data coming from RealTraffic.

The target % counts for static+live.

ok, when I have it at 100% (with RealTraffic), I will frequently get aircraft doubled up or waiting for stalls or two aircraft in the same stall or two aircraft that seem taxing inside each other … as in last night at PDX (FYI, when available I do disable all 3rd party static aircraft).  My instinct was to reduce the Target % in hope of reducing these duplicate aircraft.

When I brought up RealTraffic radar and looked at PDX, there were no duplicate aircraft on taxiway or in a stall.

Are you using FS 2024? If so can you confirm that you have parked traffic turned off under the graphics, advanced settings?

Have you ticked all 3 collision functions?

EDIT : Dupicated aircraft is not normal and should never occur.
          and are you sure your airport addon has not placed static aircraft too?

Good I did not mention in the Release Notes it was fixed. I was not sure you know.

Will look further. Strange thing is that I cannot reproduce it.

Nico, I just installed the latest release at 0650z May 5  and ran the Livery scan just after starting and it completed on my end with NO closing or restart required. I also installed as Admin if that makes any difference.

No, that is only needed if you have installeld (wrongly) PSXT in Program Files .

I believe the issue was in the section that reports the scanned liveries. I’ve made it more robust, so hopefully no exceptions will occur now. Please try version 15.0.4 again after downloading and reinstalling it from my website.

By the way, that’s a very clear and crisp screen recording. What video capture software are you using?

I have a couple of capture methods, external BlackMagic Designs HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro and standard nVidia capture using these settings:

In this instance I was using nVidia capture.

I use the HyperDeck Shuttle to record (ProRes 422 HQ) when doing night flights so as to AVOID getting that nasty night/cloud LSD type of compression that comes with those nVidia codecs.

Unfortunately after uninstall of PSXT and manual download and install from your website, I get the same issue after a scan of liveries ... shutsdown.
