Well it’s worse for me today. I can load into one flight (with the error maybe 7 or 8 times by the time I load in) but if I go to the pause/esc menu and back into the game I get the error popup with no way to click on it.
hi @CpMoustache . Your situation seems a bit different. You have no file > 15.9mb in your WGS folder?
Oh yeah, I do. The one file is sitting at 16.0 mb and has been for a month but up until yesterday I’ve been able to just acknowledge the error and move on.
After a brand new uninstall, thorough cleaning, cloud wipe, and reinstall, anyone care to guess how long it took before the 2047 error came back? OK, I’ll tell you. One startup. Just one. And the logbook/whatever file is 16.3mb
I find if I delete that file, the control profiles association file not the logbook file, then it starts at a few kb. Then each time I choose a plane and associate some profiles to it , it will grow from between a hundred kb or so up to half a megabyte for each plane. I have so far flown about 10-12 planes, associated profiles, and right now the file stands at just over 4gb. I now keep a close eye on that file each time I associate profiles to make sure it doesn’t get near 16mb and I won’t get any 2027s until it does. Clearly 30-40 planes is the maximum number I could fly in SU4.
A few things I’ve learned is that I can monitor the sync situation in the XBOX app while the sim is running which gives me some indication what/when is trying to sync. I also use OneCommander file explorer which shows folder sizes in realtime which is helpful to keep tabs on file growth.
I’ve also found that deleting the profile association file is pretty painless, the main loss is , obviously, control associates to aircraft which is pretty easy to reassociate, the prifile themsleves remain intact.
Good luck sir.
2047s are a impediment to me buying any more planes as I wouldn’t be able to fly them.
I was expecting something of the same sort which is what I had the last few times I tried a wipe or wgs logbook deletion. I can’t explain the differences this time. Nor do I have any further ideas
I feel your pain. If I clear my 16mb control association file I do not lose my logbook entries, that’s how I know the file isn’t the logbook. The control association file always starts tiny after a delete and only grows after each new plane that I’ve associated profiles to. This doesn’t seem to be the same for you. ![]()
I am not affected by this so my question is a a bit theoretical and out of curiosity. Does the controls file only grow if you create a new named configuration for a device or does it also grow if you associate a current named device configuration to an additional aircraft? Reason for asking is that I have in the past assigned an existing named configuration to a new aircraft as the behaviours are sufficiently similar to an existing aircraft’s configuration that there is no justification for a new, unique configuration for the new aircraft. Might this, coupled to the fact that I only fly like 15 aircraft, be at least partly why I do not have a big controls file?
If you create a new control profile for a peripheral then it creates a new stand alone file in the WGS folder and it does not affect the file at all. It’s only when you associate any profile with an aircraft that entries are made in the control association file.
So are you saying that if you assign ONE controller configuration to 20 aircraft, it will duplicate all the configuration data 20 times in the file??? It would really make no sense to do it that way!
It has to keep a record of a planes control profile associations, so as you assign the profiles it writes records to that file.
Even if I fly a plane I’ve never flown before and just fly it for the first time and dont make any profile adjustments but just let it have whatever defaults are already assigned, that file still gets bigger at the end of the flight
Getting more common
just got one on a VIP mission but I ignored it, clicked ok just before decent and completed the flight, clicking ok quickly when it popped up. Thankfully didn’t pop up as I was landing.
mission completed and although it took about 5 minutes to give me my credits, thy have been awarded and are there in my balance
Question? I’ve disabled a large portion of my add-on aircraft (I had a lot!) and the problem hasn’t shown up for a week.
Does everyone suffering this error have big hangars full of add-ons, or is it appearing to those with plain vanilla out of the box versions too?
Did you disable those addons via the a text file? The issue is stopping the users from launching the sim, so they can’t can’t do it from there.
I tried it with all of my addons and virtually none with no obvious difference. I even went through and turned off all aircraft and airports I could through Content Manager with no difference
Currently been flying for 4 hours with the 2047 dialogue ![]()
As long as it doesn’t pop up as I’m about to touch down we’re good
I reckon this would only help if planes are disabled while the file is small. Once it gets up near 16mb it would make no difference as the plane entries are written to the file once you fly them one time.
Didn’t even get to landing. Sim crashed / locked up on finals. If you don’t laugh you’d cry
