Justin Shannon Posted April 26, 2020 at 04:10 PM Posted April 26, 2020 at 04:10 PM (edited) Update: Version 1.3.4.1-Alpha has been made available to fix an issue when using the Radio Messages window within X-Plane. This update also includes an update to the way aircraft labels are positioned on other aircraft; they will now appear above the aircraft instead of on the body. ------ Version 1.3.4.0-Alpha of xPilot is now available for download from the web site, or via the automatic update utility built into the pilot client (if you are running 1.3.3.0 and have the "Alpha" update channel selected in the settings).The following items were changed, added or fixed in this version: "Fetch From Server" button will now fetch a pre-filed the flight plan on first click Fix issue with aircraft "falling to the ground" when flaring on landing xPilot will now automatically disconnect if the xPilot X-Plane plugin becomes disabled (e.g. through a plugin manager) Refactored interop messaging (that's how xPilot communicates with the xPilot X-Plane plugin) Added missing spoiler/speed brake aircraft configuration property; this means you should now see if an aircraft deploys their spoilers/speed brakes (if their pilot client supports the aircraft configuration packet) General program stability improvements It is very important that you close X-Plane completely before installing xPilot. Failure to do so will prevent xPilot from being installed correctly. Known Issues: Opening the X-Plane map while connected to xPilot can sometimes cause a crash to desktop (CTD). Who's Online window within X-Plane will sometimes not open when requested.

Shameel Ahmed Posted April 26, 2020 at 05:09 PM Posted April 26, 2020 at 05:09 PM thanks, will test crashing and report (as i can recreate them easily, just need heavy online traffic) FYI below is the log from my latest crash (1.3.3) https://bin.clowd.io/?9a3fe248c9ec3d35#AA816ny28RyGpCrHCWQgm57gCg6fXy9wSwYCxhQSueGU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Jones Posted April 26, 2020 at 06:31 PM Posted April 26, 2020 at 06:31 PM Unfortunately Xpilot asked to update with Xplane running ( I hadn't seen this thread ). I now can't see any aircraft when connected. What's the best plan to get up and running please. Thanks ....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shameel Ahmed Posted April 27, 2020 at 05:08 PM Posted April 27, 2020 at 05:08 PM crashed again on 1.3.4.1 as i approach heathrow. better this time as i got pretty close (around 25 miles). but i think it crashed as soon as the traffic got too heavy. log below https://bin.clowd.io/?176c2499c1e5986e#FkvAJrB2zTjimrQzVUMNvPSY99yKHidUkc7Y7rgNqMU5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shameel Ahmed Posted April 27, 2020 at 05:19 PM Posted April 27, 2020 at 05:19 PM also any idea why i have so many errors and warnings related to CSL? the actual CSLs look ok when i look at them in x plane i have basically taken the XCSL updater and run the python scrips on all the models in XCSL and stored them in the xpilot resources folder and enabled them in xpilot (followed this from the tutorial) - am i missing something?

Unfortunately, the dump file call stack does not point to xPilot. It's difficult to know for certain if the crash was actually caused by xPilot because of the generic "--=={This application has crashed!}==--" line in the log. Typically, if a plugin causes a crash, you would see a line similar to "--=={This application has crashed because of the plugin: xPilot}==--". One thing I do notice is you have a lot of plugins installed. Try removing all of them except xPilot and try again. If no crash, then keep adding a plugin one-by-one until you get a crash.

I am fairly confident that they are related to xpilot and heavy traffic load (i can complete flights in low traffic load). yesterday i was able to complete a flight using the BB CSLs in heavy traffic (although i got disconnected right around when i was approaching, but i managed to reconnect) so it may be related to XCSL. another thing i noticed was that the ground aircraft spawn pretty late like around 3-4 miles from touchdown - is that expected? this guy has also been having crashes in busy areas and his log also does not specify xpilot Edited April 28, 2020 at 09:07 AM by Shameel Ahmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Asberg Posted April 28, 2020 at 01:14 PM Posted April 28, 2020 at 01:14 PM (edited) Very happy to see a new xPilot is available to try out! I'm currently on 1.3.1.2 and just had this nasty crash midair. Was a first though and hopefully whatever caused it might have already been fixed in 1.3.4.1. Edited to add, when I got this, it didn't actually crash xPilot. That one kept running saying it was waiting for a connection to X-Plane after I pressed the 'Retry' button. Instead, it made X-Plane hang.
