X planes keep crashing on start up

[alpine62uk]

Hi,

 

Have been running Xplane for a while and now find it crashes, I get notification that a sceanry file for London City airpirt is missing or not complete and imediately afterward the progam will not respond. Have tried using updater but still the same. Have not done a re-install yet, what is the best way to go about re-install and how to be sure all file are deleated before so. I am using windows

Thanks

Hiya,

What i would try is ............

If you've installed custom scenery for London City, you will have to hunt down what it requires, some require specific items (two libraries off the top of my head as an example) eg : R2_Library or THE-FAIB Aircraft Library etc

If you have added items to the custon scenery folder, try removing them for testing purposes, don't worry about your ini, removed items will 'drop off' the ini

Also mentioning the ini, imagine the ini as a victorian sponge, it has layers, google to see what i mean, and correct the layering is needbe

Now to throw a spanner in the works, if you've not added any items to the custom scenery folder, and you still have missing items (i'm sure this rings a bell a while ago for luton or gatwick) even though i got missing warning/s it didn't cause a crash, so i think i ended up installing a custom scenery for it, making sure i had all the required libraries

And on about libraries, you may find especially now, some custom items require say a version 1 of an item, while another requires version 3a etc, you have to have the older one/s installed too, don't imagine the latest is the greatest, items were created using the version/s that were available at that time, and things move on so to speak and not always updated to carry on forward (if that makes sense)

If you can, put your ini up here so i can have a look over it, anything obvious will stick out like a sore thumb, the less obvious will require cross referencing for missing libraries

Also, put your rig specs up, cpu/ram/gpu and oc settings

Your ini will be the best place to start, as this shows what if any, and in which order custom items are being used, and of course you x-plane version number, if you're not on the betas and have the latest it will be v 10.45

After typing this and thinking i'm, sure my non-crashing missing item/s error was for Luton

Food for thought
