Unplayable and now the game crash… I give up, just play an other game until they fix it… Sadly

I’m gonna update LFPO, constant CTD when trying to take off since the update from gate.
Xbox Series X.
Verified with SU9 and updated list.
Aircraft with no problems.
F16 C/D/I Fighting Falcon
Airport verified with A320neo (Asobo) and Cessna 172 Skyhawk (Asobo).
Started at GATE.
Airport with no problems.
RJCW (Wakkanai Airport).
RJKA (Amami Airport).
RJFC (Yakushima Airport).
RJKI (Kikai Airport).
Airports with minor problems
RJFF (Fukuoka Airport).
Problem airports
RJAA (Tokyo Narita Airport).
RJGG (Chubu Centrair International Airport).
RJCC (New Chitose Airport).
KLAS (Harry Reid International Airport).
RJKA (Amami Airport) and Boeing 737 MAX (Bredok3D) combined CTD, but since the 737 is also CTD at many airports (Asobo), we assumed no problem for RJKA.
RJFF (Fukuoka Airport) has no CTD, but ILS does not work.
The localizer works, but the glide slope does not show or descend.
(After Fukuoka Airport update on March 10, 2022).
RJAA, RJGG, RJCC, and KLAS all cause CTD.
On A320neo it will CTD during engine start; on Cessna 172 Skyhawk it will CTD during taxiing.
If you start from the runway instead of from GATE, you can take off if you are lucky.
As many have reported on the forum, there have been serious problems with Xbox Series and SU9, and I have had numerous CTDs on the world map.
There may be some update to this, in which case I will verify again.
It probably won’t change the verification results.
Thank you.
I use the translation.

Added update on La Guardia airport - it seems to be ok unless you install New York City Times scenery add-on
Also made update on Drzewiecki Design airports - KRNT Renton and EPKK Krakow - both crash soon after launching, tested on small aircraft and bigger airliners

I recommend the moderators split the entire forum in two separate pc and xbox versions.

I’m on XBOX series X. I’ve landed and droned around these 2 airports without any problems as yet, if anyone is interested in them they seem to work nicely. And its fun to fly around the greek islands.

Thx! Small airports usually works well.
I really hope that they manage to fix these airports on Xbox. They’re some of the most impressive products IMO.

I’ve managed to run successfully this problematic airports by Drzewiecki.
Hard shutdown of the console seems to help (it empties memory which could be the problem)
Also aircraft choice is important - use small aircraft or bigger one but with default liveries (no add-on liveries).
That way with empty memory console should be able to handle those airports.
Btw to make hard shutdown go to settings>general>energy etc.> hard shutdown. After that give console 10-20s to empty memory before turning it back on. Hope it will help
I bought this morning, be referring to the add-ons list and reviews, Edinburgh airport from Pyreguee on Xbox Series X. It’s absolutely beautiful, lots of details inside and outside and with zero performance drop. Kudos.

After some more testing there is one thing common for incompatible airports - all weight more than ~2,5GiB (after extraction, on xbox hard drive). Bigger the file, faster CTDs occurs.

But there is no way to see the add-on size before buying it right?
Isn’t there any info on product page in shop before purchase? Most of problematic airports weights 3-5GB. It means developer didn’t care for optimisation at all
I agree there is some memory issue involved. In general my “crash-iest” airports are the large ones and it’s made much worse by airliners (which I assume are larger memory footprint as well?). For example, RJAA (Narita) is unusable with airliners but I can sometimes fly a GA plane without CTD (if I don’t “look around” too much).
There are some exceptions though - LFPO is now instant CTD on xbox (didn’t use to be) with airliners and the memory is < .5 GB.
I bought a number of small airports in the recent spring sale. I especially like the small airports I got from “LN design” (LFPB, EGLK) which have no issues on xbox and have nice details. I only buy airports during sales now.

I manage to takeoff from LFPO from runways but CTD at gates. I’ve send a report to the devs.

This one is close to other big airports which can be loaded simultaneously to memory
I’ve tried again for LFPO after completely uninstalled and reinstalled MSFS and all add-ons and it’s working. Both on runways and gates, with default skin or 4simmers ones.
Process took 3h on Xbox Series X and I’ve got a very good internet speed.
KVCV (aka aircraft boneyard) available now on Marketplace. Looks cool, reasonable price, but is 4.6 GB so this would be quite a test for theory that large airports crash on xbox. If anyone is brave enough to give this a try and report their experience on xbox I’d be curious, but I’d say this is a likely candidate for CTD.

I think you’re right there. Just looked at it, whoa, that is an awful lot of decent quality assets and enhancements packed in such a tight space. This has huge performance hit and CTD written all over it. Maybe the Pre-Covid variant is realistically your only hope?
Fukuoka Airport (RJFF, SamScene3D) has been updated and the ILS issue has been fixed.
Compatibility list is now fine.
