X-Plane (Steam) doesn't start after install Saab 340A

Hello community, 

 

I am new to the X-Plane world ;-)

 

After trouble-free installation of the FF 757 and Amsterdam, nor the Saab 340A should enrich the hangar. 

Bought, installation, end. X-Plane (64 bit) will not boot ... 

"Fatal Error SteamAPI_Init () failed ..."

 

I use X-Plane via Steam ;-)

Apparently, the Saab and Steam do not like? 

 

The most important insight -> if the "Gizmo64.plugin" removed from the resources / plugins folder, X-Plane starts again. 

If I read correctly, the Saab needs this plugin to work? 

 

A few more information to isolate the problem: 

- Only the 64-bit version does not start 

- Steam is of course connected 

- X-Aviation credentials are entered correctly when installed 

- X-Plane checked via Steam on error -> no change 

- Installation of Saab to run again -> no change 

- Loaded latest version of the plugin Gizmo64 - -> no change 

- Mac OSX Firewall is disabled -> no change 

 

Attach Files: GizmoLog.txt & Log.txt

 

 

Someone further ideas or even the remedy? 

 

 

Preliminary ever thank you!

PS: thank you google for the translation :-)

ezfox: Thanks for your feedback. It's nice to know others are having no issues.

 

 

Gizmo64 on Mac + X-Plane Steam has a definite problem that I've been working through with the help of Laminar Research.

 

This issue will require a plugin update to resolve.

 

 

Keep an eye out for an update announcement on forums and in your email if you're a paying customer.

 

 

Thanks.

CharlieAlpha:

 

The only way I can get the error message "Fatal Error SteamAPI_Init () failed ..." to appear is to try and start X-Plane from the Finder.

Starting X-Plane from Steam this error message never appears for me.

 

Unfortunately there is another error with Gizmo64 version 14.01.___ that the Saab ships with.

This error only occurs when using X-Plane (10.25) for Steam on a Mac.

 

This problem is fixed in both X-Plane 10.30 and the next version of Gizmo64 which is not publicly available yet.

 

X-Plane 10.30 should be available "soon" on Steam. The next version of Gizmo64 is still in development.

 

 

I'm sorry but I cannot give you a fix "right now" only a promise that in the near future it will be fixed when updates are released.

 

 

Thanks for your patience.
