Hi @Nikita,

Just want to confirm a few things on your end -

  1. If you were to pick a different livery, do you still get the crash?
  2. Does this happen only with the C404 when you configure it?

Thanks!

Just completed a flight in the Titan Cargo (Loaded) configuration. No livery choice. Flight was ok with a series of seven airfields, four of which are Burning Blue Designs. No problem until I selected Main Menu and then got a CTD.

I’ll try your configuration later and report back.

I will try different livery & different aircraft next, thanks

I repeated the steps selecting instead the Air Ambulance/default livery, and was able to proceed to plan a free flight.

KSWF Parking 119 to KABE Rwy 24, both defaults, via STW with live weather selected. The flight would not start and hung on the spinning progress wheel (or whatever it’s called).

Aborted with the back command and changed Flight Conditions to Preset High Level Clouds and clicked Ready to Fly which took me to the tarmac, as expected. So far I am able to proceed with the flight, the only difference being Preset weather vs. Live Weather.

Along the way I have lost my keyboard input despite valid keyboard controller profiles! Will proceed with the flight and report back.

CTD in level cruise on A/P (GPS) approaching STW VOR (south east of COATE) when I switched to external view. Reading around other’s posts it might appear that changing views is also causing CTD’s.

Restarted 24. Selected the G58 Baron in Free Flight, default version/default livery. Planned the same flight above except now starting on Rwy 27. Same preset weather.

Flight completed in the G58 while switching views multiple times. This is not a solution as the C404 was fully functional in the public release and in beta this morning, when I completed an hour long flight in live weather and multiple view changes. Something must have changed midday? Anyway. Nothing further to offer at this time.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Flew the 404 Cargo (Loaded) variant earlier and only had a CTD at the end of the flight trying to return to the Main Menu

4 Attempts with the passenger variant and 4 CTD

Attempt 1
I’d just finished flying the H125 and Bell 407 around LA in the same session. Loaded the C404 Passenger Variant with livery 02 in at KPOC (Brackett Field CA). Got adventurous and asked ATC to board passengers. CTD just before the final passenger entered the a/c.

Attempt 2
Selected Passenger Variant and Livery 02. Immediate CTD while still on the Livery screen.

Attempt 3
Restarted Xbox X.
Selected Passenger Variant and Livery 02. Immediate CTD while still on the Livery screen.

Attempt 4
Selected Passenger Variant and Livery 03. Immediate CTD while still on the Livery screen.

I’ve experienced this with the a330 changing livery or variant causes a ctd when saving and exiting

Fixed in SU2.
