Correct. Challenger is top priority. Saso has done some amazing work on it.

Model is finished. Textures are finished. Saso is doing his best to take care of minor issues with the 650, one of which is getting the weather radar added to it. Once he finishes those, he'll send me a new TBM build so I can start initial testing in X-Plane 12 with animations and making sure textures look good. To sum up, as of this post, all artwork is considered done.

Your log shows the CL650 plugin is loading without issues. The problem is on the X-Aviation/Gizmo licensing side. The relevant lines from your log: GK: 404: license database GK: Empty license file. Defaulting to login page. GK-IPC: No license: (hotstart.challenger650) GK: No valid auth token, manual login required. Gizmo is unable to locate a valid license and is failing to present the login prompt. Activation and licensing are handled entirely by X-Aviation, so please contact support directly for further assistance. You can reach them here: https://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/contact_us.php

Please post a log file when it happens again. It needs to be a log file from the actual crashed session.

@Max2307 Just a heads up. Confirmed. This is a bug. When the "Rudder Controls Differential Brakes" option is enabled in DC-3 Settings, the code overwrites the toe brake axis values every frame, even when the rudder is centered. That zeroes out any input from your brake pedals, which is why the axes appear completely dead while button-bound commands still work. As a workaround until the update: Open DC-3 Settings, go to the Options tab, and uncheck "Rudder Controls Differential Brakes." Your toe brake pedals should work normally after that. You'll lose the rudder-to-brake taxi assist, but you'll have full differential braking through your hardware. The fix is already in for the next release. The differential braking option will no longer interfere with toe brake axes. When the rudder is centered, your pedal input passes through untouched, and when the rudder is deflected, the two inputs are blended rather than one replacing the other.

You won't find much, if any censorship going on here. Welcome aboard.

Do you have a firewall running?

Apologies for the late reply. I'm working on a large update for the DC3. I'll make a note of this and address it.

99 times out of 100, machine ID locked means one thing.

Seeing as it's randomly happening, I'd say it's something to do with your system or setup. If it was a problem with the CL650, it would be happening every time you load it. Try removing other 3rd party plugins and see if that helps.

I actually did have a look for documentation on the 2000. There's not much floating around, unfortunately.

If you submitted a support ticket, it's just a matter of waiting. I don't have anything to do with activations of add ons. That is all handled by X-Aviation, directly. Make sure you only send one support request, as more than one will result in the original one getting deleted and a new one created, resulting in getting pushed back in the queue. Confirm X-Aviation received it, by noting a ticket reference number sent to you. If you haven't received it, check your junk email. I can't comment on the situation, as I don't have all the facts. This all has to be checked by X-Aviation only. I don't have access to your orders or your emails, as this would breach privacy laws.

Along with how did you end up with two x-aviation accounts, when did you purchase the 650?

I'll be looking at making a paintkit in the very near future. Both for substance painter and photoshop.

I don't really want to sound like a broken record, but it is getting worked on. We've been working on the 650 and the TBM, with Saso trying to get as much of the 650 updates done as possible for V1.8. Now that 1.8 is out, we can both dedicate more time to the TBM, and finally get that wrapped up as quickly as possible.
