For the G5 to work on Mac you'll need to run X-Plane using Rosetta. This will be changing soon.

You'll face this problem again in a few days if the culprit is not found. The good news is you can start plucking them one by one next time to see which it is.

It seems you're having some licensing issues. Your first try should be to remove all plugins from the X-Plane/Resources/Plugins folder except for the X-Aviation one. Then see if it works after that. It's likely one of these plugins has an old DLL overtaking cURL.

Your log shows the G5 is not installed to the aircraft. Be sure to follow these steps: https://help.realsimgear.com/en/articles/5779377-g5-g500-installation-into-other-aircraft

For any products, regardless of development team (Hot Start, IXEG, ToequeSim, etc) we do not offer such indications. So, to directly answer your question, no, there is not and we won't intend to until the next update is out or very near it.

If you re-installed IXEG from the installer, it's grabbing a more recent version of Gizmo that no longer supports 10. I don't know of any archived copies available.

Your anti virus is playing false positive dirty tricks on you: F:\X-Plane 12/Resources/plugins/X-Aviation/win_x64/X-Aviation.xpl : Error Code = 225 : Operation did not complete successfully because the file contains a virus or potentially unwanted software.

Gizmo is not used for this product in any way, so there's no point in installing it for the plane.

Your log does not show Gizmo installed, which would have been a part of the installation when you purchased the product. I'm not sure any versions of Gizmo exist anymore that support X-Plane 10. It's very old at this point!

Hi Thomas, Can you please attach your log.txt file in your X-Plane folder?

Can you please provide your order number?

Sorry you're disappointed, @CJSouthern. Your "translation" is rather harsh and exaggerative considering we've already established our version of what's worthy of a news update vs. yours is far off, but okay. It does remind me a bit of the kindergarten school kids who kick, scream and cry if they can't get their way, which is unfortunate coming from an "old man" as you've labeled yourself. All the best to you in whatever you choose to do going forward!

It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: NEWS: With this update we begin phasing out Gizmo from our product line and introduce Mac ARM support! Bug Fixes and Improvements: Fixes X1000 default popup bug/crash with X-Plane 12.1+ Removes the use of Gizmo Brings official Apple M Chip/ARM support As always, thanks for being a customer with X-Aviation. We appreciate your feedback and support! Enjoy these latest updates, and stay tuned to the forum as we continually announce the latest happenings.

We deeply value your enthusiasm for our upcoming project and understand the eagerness for updates. We want to assure you that we’re committed to sharing news when we feel we have meaningful and exciting progress to report - something worth your time and interest. Each development team has its own approach, and for us, this process is a labor of love. Great things take time, and ensuring the highest quality often requires patience. Over the years, we’ve learned from experience (both ours and others) that sharing tentative dates or updates prematurely often leads to misunderstandings and misplaced expectations. For this reason, we’ve adopted a more measured approach, focusing on progress behind the scenes until we’re closer to the finish line. We recognize this approach may not align with everyone’s preference for frequent updates, but we believe it’s the best way to ensure we deliver a product we’re proud of, without the pressure that can sometimes detract from creativity and quality. Rest assured, updates will come, but only when the time is right and not out of external pressure, and because we’re confident we have something truly worthwhile to share. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to work diligently. Thank you for your support and trust in what we’re building. The TBM is a fun plane, and we're looking forward to the finish line.

While that may be your perspective, it's not reality. I don't know what higher priority it can be given. It's literally being worked on every day. You just don't seem to grasp how big a project these products can be, and as I've previously stated, this update is very extensive in code change. The day will come it will be seen again.

There's not a lot to go by in the log other than it seems to be crashing loading shaders. Updating the drivers may be causing this. Can you roll back to a lesser version than the one you installed?

You can just re-run the X-Plane installer and it will restore the aircraft.

The log file you've uploaded shows you using the TBM 900. However, it is dated Mon Oct 21 16:22:27 2024. Are you sure you're starting the right instance of X-Plane? Sounds like you might have two installed and not be realizing it.

Hi Jürgen, Nothing wrong on the server, no. I did have a customer in your same region this week with a similar issue, and he found that when he used a VPN to change his location outside of his country, the speed drastically picked up. Some kind of a routing issue going on where you are at the moment to certain servers around the world sounds like!

Do you mean you need the HSI and the Attitude Indicator displays? If so, the single license gives you both.

TorqueSim owns the aircraft. RealSimGear owns the Perspective+ Software Suite produced by @Coop for them. The hardware does model the proper avionics for Perspective+. For a grand total of $2,839 you get: A software suite to upgrade your RealSimGear hardware avionics to Perspective+ A licensed copy of the TQSIM G6 engine and flight dynamics upgrade Combining the two gets you a complete G6 package, as you're looking for. The reason this is not sold for retail is because the 3D model and displayed avionics in sim does not change, therefore, RealSimGear hardware is required to make it look and feel like a G6. The Perspective+ software suite from RealSimGear does not render virtually in the sim, only on their hardware screens. You've got it right. Many of these SR20/SR22 owners are just purchasing the above package to have at home. There are no plans to bring it to retail in the future. We catered to the demand that was asked of us, which included the hardware. The people who typically buy these planes (the real ones, not sim ones) don't worry about the simulator setup cost. Doesn't apply to all of them, but does seem to apply to a lot of them. See this video as well:

The product is only found if searched for, and not in normal retail navigation paths. There's no description because it's actually for RealSimGear to purchase from us, and they know what they're getting. They then take the software, install it, and ship off FAA certified AATD's. Yes, it's available in the Professional market. It's not on retail because retail requires a lot more work in the 3D side to adapt, whereas the AATD's are physical cockpits with hardware supplied by RealSimGear. Yes, you can purchase it, either as an AATD from RealSimGear, or if you own their hardware, as a licensed software copy from us at X-Aviation for the price you have already managed to find.

Just an anecdotal point, from our data and my typical support load, it's extremely rare! In fact, I think you might be the first one I've seen in about two years now, which is honestly kind of crazy when I think about it. The M chips seem to have a high adoption rate! It was rare enough for me to see you mention Intel and me go, "dang, that's old." Not a knock on you or your spending at all, just a wild realization.

You cannot resolve this on your own. It will be fixed in the next update.

Sounds like you ran the previous version installer without realizing it the first time. Perhaps you had it on your drive and didn't realize it. This is a longstanding issue with OpenGPWS on Mac. It seems to crash anything it touches on unload, and that's never been addressed in a way that anyone can solve. So, you'll either have to launch straight in to one of the variants, or as you say, load the 172 first. Sometimes I've gotten around it by disabling OpenGPWS in the plugin menu BEFORE loading another aircraft, but it's not always reliable. For intermittent freezing, you could try first by uninstalling the G5/G500's from the Sundowner, then loading up the vanilla version of it. See if anything is improved on the standard variants first without these plugins loading (they will still load if you launch a variant that does not use them). An easy way to temporarily uninstall them would be to just move the G5/G500's out of the aircraft level plugin folder.
