  1. I assume X-Aviation and I know IXEG (since I am part of the team) is perfectly willing to accept the potential loss of sales from the XP11 version at this point. We believe that the potential benefit from providing a separate download environment for that version is not outweighing the increased complexity that this would bring.

    We realize that many people are still running XP11, just like there are many people still on FS2004 or WindowsXP.

    On a personal note, whenever I read about someone sticking with XP11 there is usually an emotional unwillingness to deal with the new and unknown...in this case totally unfounded ;-)

    Cheers, Jan

  2. Ah, thank you for the beautiful pictures - they bring back fond memories of flying the Classic for 12 years!

    The NG is supposed to fly fairly similar to the Classic (although most variants are a bit heavier), I am sure you will enjoy it!!

    I assume the difference might be like the one between 747-400 and 747-8 (the ones I fly now), they are subtle but noticeable nonetheless.

    Good luck and success with your type rating, all the best, Jan

  3. Your license check has failed:

    You need to contact the X-Aviation support to get help with that.

    In addition, your X-Plane installation is completely overloaded with add-ons and extra scenery, some of it not running correctly, some of it not compatible with XP12, or known to cause crashes.

    I would suggest "cleaning house" ;-)

    Is there an error log and if so where can I send it?

    After you try to run the plane and shut down X-Plane, go to the X-Plane 12 folder and find the file "Log.txt". You can attach that file to the next post here, then I can take a look if I spot something out of the ordinary.

     

  5. Hmm - it looks like you have DC (battery) power (the digits in the radio panels are showing, for example), but you don´t have AC power connected (because no generators are online).

    Did you click "restart" after choosing the option "ready to fly"?

    Also make sure that you choose the option "engines running" in the default X-Plane GUI - if you don´t have that box checked, it will override the start-up state that you choose in the IXEG menu.

  6. The number one reason for this is a failure to get the product authorized online (DRM).

    A secondary reason could be being out of electrical power (battery empty and engines not running because of being out of fuel).

    Last but not least you could have a switch on your Saitek configured to "battery switch" or "Avionics power" and maybe it is in the OFF position?

  7. In general, here is my recommended procedure to deal with X-Plane crashing or Device Loss Errors:

    This is a guideline on how to cure your X-Plane problems of crashing or device loss errors:

    1.) Make sure your operating system is in prime shape. No overclocking. Latest drivers. Default graphic settings (no esotheric Nvidia settings, etc.), no paranoid anti-virus, no "I got this on a cool reddit forum with Windows tips" stuff.

    2.) Remove all third party content from your X-Plane installation. Physically move them somewhere else, disabling them in X-Plane is not enough. This includes plugins, aircraft, scenery.

    3.) Fly a default aircraft for several hours. Let it go on autopilot if you don`t have the time, but fly a default aircraft in a default ("vanilla") simulator setup until it crashes or 6 hours are up, whatever comes first.

    4.) If the simulator crashed or you suffer a device loss error, file a bug with Laminar Research (google X-Plane bug reporter). Wait for LR to fix the problem. You can now post here and let us know about your problem, maybe someone can spot something wrong with your system that you missed.

    5.) If you completed the 6 hours with no problem, you can install your FIRST add-on. ONLY ONE! Fly it for 6 hours. If XP crashes or has a DLE, you have found the offending third-party item. Do not use it anymore. Contact the developer of said item to fix it.

    6.) Add your NEXT  add-on. Repeat testing, discarding all add-ons that cause crashes or DLE´s.

    Remember, there are no "must have" add-ons. There are only compatible or incompatible add-ons. It is the developer´s responsibility to make his add-on compatible or take it up with LR if the problem is not on his side.

     

  8. It is kinda funny that this seems to work exactly opposite to the real aircraft - in that you normally aspire to DEPRESSURIZE the A hydraulic (to avoid steering the nose gear while the truck is attached), either by inserting the nosegear-steering bypass pin or by depressurizing the A hydraulic by turning OFF the pumps.

  9. There are many problems with "better pushback" and other third party pushback services, also on other aircraft, I recommend to use the default X-Plane pushback service.

    I have not followed the discussion, there may have been an update to Better Pushback to fix this, but I think the error message encountered was something like "aircraft does not have steerable nosewheel" or so...

  10. Huh, that is weird - but it is super hard to troubleshoot something like that on a forum - you said that you filled out the PERF init page correctly, that would have been my next guess.

    Maybe you can follow some tutorial on youtube that details how to fill out the FMS in the IXEG and see if you get it to work if you do the very same thing that is shown in the video. Just google "IXEG 737 FMS tutorial" and you will see several offings.

  11. Check your routing for discontinuities and also check if there is a waypoint in the descent part of your flightplan that has a mandatory altitude (like the destination runway). That is a prerequisite for the FMS to calculate a path.

  12. I have checked your log.txt - here is your problem:

    0:16:21.592 G64: debug:     IXEG:  Checking for valid license via Level 1.....
    0:16:21.592 G64: debug:     IXEG:  Level-1 license check good.   Requesting Level-2 check....
    0:16:21.592 G64: debug:     IXEG:  Performing Level-2 check
    0:16:21.592 G64: debug:     IXEG:  Level-2 check FAILED

    0:16:21.592 G64: debug:     IXEG:  Level-1 PASS / Level-2 FAIL.  License invalid

    You are failing the DRM license check, your product is not activated properly.

    You will need to file a support ticket with X-Aviation so they can help you get this running.

  13. Even though your log clearly says "crashed because of plugin Gizmo", the real reason is probably an incompatibility with one of your other numerous plugins.

    To find out which one, you will have to remove them all, then add them back one by one until the problem appears again.

    My money would be on one of these:

    Loaded: E:\X-Plane 12/Resources/plugins/PropWash.xpl (PropWashsim.PropWash).

    Loaded: E:\X-Plane 12/Resources/plugins/win.xpl (babichev.landspeed).

    ...but it could be one of the other ones as well.

    Cheers, Jan
