Can you remove the shaders you have installed and try again? I'm not sure if that is causing the problem, but I would like you to try re moving them and seeing if that has any effect.

Happy to see you have it resolved. This is a known issue with the name of the scenery being too long.

I'll take a look at this in the next day or 2. You have quite a lot of plugins.

Ok, wait for the computer to get back, then we'll proceed.

Ok, I'm going to have to ask you to make a separate install of X-Plane only. No scenery. Then install the TBM only. No other plugins, other than what comes with the TBM. This won't have any effect on your activation and DRM for the TBM. Load the TBM at SCIP with Metal DISABLED and in windowed mode. There will be a runway and water. Make a flight and see if it crashes. If it does crash, post your log. If it doesn't crash, go into your settings and enable Metal. Reload X-Plane in windowed mode. Test and see if it crashes. If it crashes, post your log. If it doesn't crash, go into your settings and set the sim to full screen. If it doesn't crash, the problem with the other installation of X-Plane is a plugin conflicting with the TBM. If it does crash after this final test, the problem lies in full screen mode, which has been reported to LR, and they have already, in turn, hammered AMD about the drivers. In any case, please post back any findings and we'll dig deeper.

It's important to have the "start with engines running" checkbox unchecked. But going by everything you've said, it just looks like the code isn't getting installed. We've had this happen in the first few months after release, but not this late. Can you confirm if the crash bar (the black and yellow bar on the overhead) actually moves. If it does move up, does it stay up or come straight back down.

Can you try Windowed mode and see if the problem persists?

Are you running full screen or windowed mode?

Could you post your log.txt file (found in your root X-Plane folder). This tells us more about the crash. If you've started X-Plane again since the crash, you'll need to load the TBM again and have it CTD on you, so a new log file is written.

If you are, indeed, using an on board GPU, consider getting a separate graphics card. On board GPU's will cause all kinds of problems. @oldflyguy consider yourself an honorary support member.

That would have been my next suggestion. Sometimes people don't like going down the "install a clean copy of X-Plane" road, but I'm glad you did and that it's working. A clean install usually does work. It's the plugins that come in after that sometimes give away the issue.

Download a fresh copy of X-Plane. No scenery. Choose your desktop as the location (not just C:\X-Plane) Update it if it's needed. Once it's installed, reinstall the TBM to this new copy of X-Plane. (Don't worry about DRM. The install will go ahead without issue). Do not install any other plugins or scenery. This is purely a test install. Once this test is done, and we can confirm it works, we'll move forward. Test again, and post back.

Try ONE of these... Remove reshade and test. Run X-Plane in OpenGL and test If it still crashes after trying either of those, post back.

Also, just to add, this problem doesn't happen with Nvidia GPU's. It is isolated to AMD.

Thought so. This is one of those issues with AMD/Radeon GPU's and drivers. Can you test in Windowed mode and see if that fixes it? (I know it's not an ideal solution, but LR are aware of this issue and have contacted AMD several times about it.) If it still hangs, let me know, and I'll look deeper.

What did you tell us?

Are you running in full screen or Windowed mode?

Please post back when you're back. There's a few things we can try. This is definitely unusual.

Try reinstalling the TBM. We don't know why this is happening, but it's happened to a very small handful of people. It could be some kind of update to another add on making a clean install of the output folder, completely deleting the TBM folder.

Can you confirm that you have this folder in your X-Plane directory? C:\X-Plane 11\Output\TBM900\state

My first question is, do you have the inertial separator in the closed position?

Looks like Gizmo possibly wasn't properly installed. Reinstalling the TBM also reinstalled Gizmo. Glad to see it all working.

Your Saab checklist window is definitely smaller than it should be. For comparison, this is what I'm seeing on my 5K Retina display when compared to the Gizmo preferences. @JGregory any ideas?

Have you tried turning down your settings? 4GB is a little low, and there are quite a few high resolution textures in the TBM. Can you check how much VRAM your GPU is using with the TBM loaded?

Yes. Here is my Gizmo preferences on a 5K Retina Mac display. It looks the same on my Windows PC/4K monitor. I'm not really sure what could be causing the problem, other than the UI scaling.
