Ok so it’s been a while. I got so frustrated that I just gave up. But this morning I have scowered my system for any reference of A2A and removed them all (I think). Every package ever entry in the register in hope of getting this sorted out. I have redownloaded the latest copy of the installer from A2As website…
And I still get “another version of this product is installed”. This is so frustrating. What the actual F???
Edit: Found some more registry items and it seems to have worked this time. What a nightmare. Ugh.
Now my over 200 hours of flight time is gone. :(.
UPDATE - now I get the error “the specified account already exists”
if you havn’t done it yet, I would recommend to head over the a2a forum directly (or maybe there discord : → link),
there you can expect better troubleshooting from devs in person
I have done this too, and used the recomended windows troubleshooter. The only thing I have not done is a complete wipe of my computer and a full reinstall of Windows… Which I do not want to do… Maybe when FS2024 drops, but not before then,
No mods to naming convention, tried to install in the community folder, and in a different folder. No idea what is causing the “account exists” errors. I have reached out to A2A for some solution.
I had no idea it was scheduled for Xbox, and in fact a while back wrote a post saying we would have to accept this was one we wouldn’t be seeing, due to the depth of the simulation.
Of course, the next question is, how does it run on our litte game boxes? It seems to be the full-fat version and I’m incredibly interested, but I may wait for some initial impressions from YouTube etc.
I was just thinking about this today, and actually looked on their forum to see if there was any updates. I knew they were working on getting it to Xbox but were testing some things internally still. Never thought it would be this soon!
Efficient, capable and dedicated developers. Not much PR, no wrong promises, just great addons and great support. Have fun with Accusim. It‘s a game changer. Fingers crossed the xBox doesn‘t have any major issues with it.
On the PC it‘s always a good idea to close the sim and restart again after loading a complex addon for the first time. I think it might be the same on the xBox.
Yeah, I usually always do a complete restart. Even when I’m not installing new stuff… as a general rule of thumb.
I did a second restart and performed a few touch and goes at KEKA (3rd party). Then after a successful shut down of the aircraft, I was able to cause the CTD by doing the same exact two clicks on the tablet.
When you click the big T on the control page of the tablet it pops you out of the cockpit, and then, if you click it again, it pops you back in and that’s when it crashes.
Would be interesting to note if anyone else can replicate this. Maybe it a bug or a memory issue being at a 3rd party airport.
Prior to inducing the CTD, There was no indication of any issues, like stuttering or anything. I was looking all around outside while fly and on the ground, and it was smooth as butter.
Update: I was able to replicate the CTD for the 3x at another airport after a fresh restart and doing nothing else.
Trims out nicely, even in some 10-15knt winds. There’s an adjustable trim speed setting in the tablet.
Haven’t had any CTD’s or frame drops, but I did have a loss of thrust on a go around from a crankshaft failure. Was pretty cool to do a belly landing and see that prop bend.
