Running X-Plane while updating?

This error is the exact error that appears when X plane is running while updating an aircraft.

Just downloaded and tested. Nothing blinking. Tried Windowed mode and full screen mode. Could you both please attach log files. Can I ask, are you running more than 1 monitor? Do you also have updated GPU drivers?

I'll pass this onto Saso, but to me, it looks like GPWS crashed because it was reading corrupted scenery. I'll let him know, though.

Bug in the rain effect. Should be fixed in the next update. For now, just reload the aircraft

I have a feeling "QuickQualityMake" is going to get very busy, very soon.

The TBM uses shaders for the rain and icing, and you're seeing the shaking on the areas that have these shaders applied to them. So it's a combination of the shaders and specific hardware or even GPU drivers. Are you running a Radeon 560 or 580 by any chance? Edit: Never mind. I just looked at your log again. Radeon 580. There are some weird things happening between the 560 and 580.

Fixed and should be in the next update

Definitely not something I can see on my PC, so I would say it's isolated to some kind of hardware issue.

Exception handler crash. Saso is in the process of fixing these. They were fixed for a large number of people in the last update, but some people are still getting it. An update should be out very soon.

I showed Saso this post, and he's going to investigate whether anything in any weather add on could be causing this. Same thing with the Saab. It'll crash when run with xEnviro, and Andrey, from xEnviro found out it was, indeed his software causing it when run with the Saab.

Very impressive work @cpuwolf

Thanks for letting everyone know. Much appreciated

An update is at the tail end of being finished which should address this bug. I have to ask one question. Are you using Windows 7?

The latest update (1.1.6) has improved ground handling.

Interesting. Thanks.

Would I be asking too much if I asked you to remove xEnviro and try again?

I can say it is definitely compatible. I just watched a streamer fly it last night with no problems. 1.1.6 on 11.32r2 Sometimes, a persons PC configuration or their plugins can cause minor hiccups. As long as we get logs, then we'll keep the updates coming.

This is, unfortunately, the problem with most CTD's. A conflict with another plugin. Thank you for trying a 100% clean install of X-Plane. If you find out what was causing the crash, PLEASE post back and let us know, then we can figure out if it's the plug in conflicting with the TBM, or vice versa. If it's the TBM's fault, Saso can code around the problem or even find a fix.

You need to completely remove the plugins. Disabling them still loads them.

We put the call out to random volunteers, as well as our regular streamers who test builds, willing to test the TBM every time an update gets built. The last callout went out today. They are definitely thoroughly tested. Going by the number of support posts here, compared to the number of sales, these errors are isolated to a small group of people. Personally, I have yet to experience an exception handler error, but I also don't have many plugins or ortho installed, so the error could be anything from a PC build to corrupted scenery being installed, to a rogue plugin (free or payware). If it's really getting frustrating for you, you could install a completely clean, scenery free, plugin free installation of X-Plane on another drive. Then if you have a crash with ANY add on in the original install, simply install that add on into the clean X-Plane, and see if the crash happens there. If it does not, then the problem lies with your original X-Plane installation. If it DOES crash in the clean version, then it's the aircraft OR X-Plane itself, in which case we do a follow up and either fix the add on or provide Laminar with a report. With aircraft getting more and more complex, it might be an idea to have those 2 X-Plane installs as a just in case. I have 3 of them.

Thanks for the info.

That's a bizarre error that I haven't seen before. I'll pass it on.

Need the log.txt file from your root x-plane folder. You can report faults either here or in discord.

Legitimate question. Why wouldn't you just download the installer from your X-Aviation account, unzip that, and run the enclosed installer? I'm not familiar with this updater you're using, but I would actually suspect it's what is causing your issues.
