Xbox/PC screens go black then CTD

Yes no doubt I get all the perspectives it does show me a good idea of the scope of things . I read that article and it can be evolved from that nature . The Xbox’s are new so it’s gonna take awhile to get these things working right . I feel that they may be just a little underpowered for the sim right now . Especially the series s for the big airliners. Ground textures getting blurry sounds like a memory leak draw. Well see what they can figure out . It’s their job to do such .

I do wonder if a slightly beefier XBox may emerge at some point for FS. The XBox eXcesS :joy:

Gotta stay on topic but heck people can’t even get the current “scalper series “as of yet !

Mine X crashes 100% all the time 5-10 minutes later after avionics goes black.

My root of cause is next (again):

UUEE airport by drzewiecki-design

1.Spawn or approach at the airport
2.Receive black :television: screens near about 5 minutes
3.CDT 5-15 minutes after 2.

  1. Unistall the package
  2. Back in the sim with no problems in that area

After uninstalling, everything becomes normal.

No black screen again! CTD just after the landing.

They need flying 3 hours flight on Xbox series x and s and see what we’re talking about

Tried a short flight from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas to try to avoid the dreaded black screen bug. Being a noob I listened to ATC who instructed me to decend way too late and I couldn’t get down low enough to capture the ILS and so had to do a go around, on the second attempt ATC told me to go around at the last minute so another go around. I got all configured again and was on the G/S and another go around but this time got the dreaded Black/Blank screens which effectively ended my flight.

Three problems… ATC FL, Multiple go around instructions and my Noobness.

If its not fixed in SU6 which theres a chance it could be, SU7 is only next month according to the roadmap. Just give it chance. Matter of fact I just had a black screen in the 787. It could be in SU6, Miracles do happen!!

And SU8 is only 2 months after that!

Please don’t give the devs a free pass on this one. It’s a legacy bug from PC and absent mods or marketplace options that work Xbox players are going to start leaving because of it. There really is no excuse for it and it should be priority #1 as far as Xbox is concerned.

100% true statement also for me! Sick of it!

We just need to keep pushing this topic out as much as possible.

egypt to turkey he15-ltac sim frozen up to load the area few minutes later cockpit screens when out then CTD on Xbox

At this point the mods/community managers have brought it up to the dev team so I don’t know if there is much more we can do.

Given the genesis of this bug, I fear it is something buried deep enough in overlapping systems that it is almost impossible to debug. But I don’t know how serious the devs have looked at it in the past, if at all.

If it were me, I’d work backwards - figure out why those using the FBW or heavy mods are not having these issues and what that software is modifying in the base code of these aircraft.

Maybe it is all the default FMC? I’d be fine not being able to modify the in-game flight plan as a stop-gap until WT gets to these aircraft if it means I don’t get black avionics. Give me an A320 with a G530 at this point (even if I can’t use an arrival because of the u-turn bug) - it’s better than black avionics and CTD!

Atleast they acknowledged it. We can only hope it gets fixed or they atleast create a work around.

True, but the battery explanation was the same thing zendesk was telling PC a year ago until FBW and heavy mod came out and the issue “fixed” itself. So call me skeptical for now.

You can search old threads and see some of the responses.

They said “No update as of release yet so >stay tuned<” so maybe that’s a hint of them fixing it? At this point im going off every breadcrumb of hope. I understand its unacceptable, especially for people like me who bought premium deluxe. We all need to make sure this gets fixed and this topic get solved.
